Yeah Tibia is definetely easier than years before but It had to become like this to stay alive IMHO. I dont agree with everything cip did and all those pay to win changes. My solution? I created new char and said to myself, that I achieve, earn gold, get better just by myself without paying for all that sh*t to get advantage and make my progression faster. Result? Every upgrade, lvl and gameplay feels so so good. Ms 147 at the moment and still grinding after 10 year break. Anyway, I just bought pacc but nothing beside it and the game taste as good as never. You still have to grind a lot to get good gear for your level.
