Breakdown: Achiever 40.00%, Explorer 66.67%, Killer 40.00%, Socializer 53.33%

ESAK players often see the game world as a great stage, full of things to see and people to meet. They love teaming up with people to get to the hard-to-see places, and they relish unique experiences.

So, Dyadem, you wanna get together later to explore some new regions, talk to the locals, achieve understanding of their ways and then kill them?

My 13% "Killer" rating is kind of amusing since I've spent the last two nights in PvMP, getting my spider up to Rank 1.

You have fun when you make the game fun for others. You tend to be fairly social, and you've taken the time to learn how to make things for other players, and you're interested in playing roles that allow you to support groups. You've been known to work on creating things inside games, only to give them away to help their friends.
Captain & Artisan weaponmaker? I suppose that fits.

Based on your answers, you are ASEK.
Breakdown: Achiever 100.00%, Explorer 33.33%, Killer 26.67%, Socializer 40.00%
ASEK players like to pit themselves against the grand-challenges of a virtual world. They see grouping and guilds/clans not only as an enjoyable aspect of the social environment, but also as a way to achieve goals that cannot be achieved as an individual.



The Bartle Test was originally designed for players of MUDs (multi-user dungeons) but continues to have applicability to virtual worlds of all kinds--especially MMORPGs. The test attempts to measure a player based on what they enjoy most about a game, based on four axes: The Four Bartle Catagories
People with high Achiever scores tend to prefer collecting points, levels, treasure and accomplishments that set them apart from other players--or simply present challenges.
People with high Explorer scores tend to enjoy finding all of the unique areas of the world, often enjoying the immersion of the experience. Finding a place with unique monsters and seeing what those monsters do is usually more fun for an Explorer than defeating the monsters themselves.
People with high Killer scores prefer the player-versus-player aspect of any game more than anything offered by the environment. They often relish the adrenaline and challenge of pitting themselves against real players.
People with high Socializer scores enjoy interacting with other people, forming organizations, and finding cooperative solutions to the challenges within the virtual world.



I think that's pretty acurate for me actually.

Based on your answers, you are KASE.
Breakdown: Achiever 60.00%, Explorer 20.00%, Killer 86.67%, Socializer 33.33%
KASE players tends to enjoy the PVP aspect most of all, but also likes to pit themself against all the challenges of the PVE environment as well--although the latter is often a means to an end. This type of player will often enjoy PVP that focuses on their skill as an individual contributor (duels, and so forth) more than team-based PVP.


What can I say. MPvP is awesome.

P.S. Joph, what's your monster's name and is it on Meneldor? Just wondering if I've seen you around the Ettenmoors.

EASK players often live by the phrase 'The journey is often more enjoyable than the destination.' They are motivated by meeting the challenges of the world, but they are usually in no rush--because seeing the creatures and places of the world is even more fun.

Seems accurate enough, although I am not sure answering questions about killing other players is valid since I have no interest in that. Could change if I take up monster play though hehe...

I'm sure you have since I've seen you. I've been scurrying around the Ettenmoors as Ceria, a Weaver.

Based on your answers, you are AKSE.
Breakdown: Achiever 80.00%, Explorer 33.33%, Killer 80.00%, Socializer 40.00%

AKSE players like to be the best-of-the-best at everything the game has to offer. They like to be high on the ladders of whatever metrics the game uses, including PVP. They like the best gear, the most power, and they love being the 'first' at something. Their prowess in PVP is generally supported by a large degree of understanding and posession of the best equipment and skills.

Sounds about right for me.

SEAK players are usually very interested in the the 'total experience' of a virtual world--meeting other people and finding the unique places within it. They don't care much for PVP or levelling, but meeting up with online friends to see new parts of the world is usually fun and exciting.


Sounds about right, I'd rather have fun with friends. Kinda wondering about the low killer score, I am looking forward to Warhammer and I do like good PvP.

AESK players are interested in the player-versus-environment aspect of the game more than anything else. They are often soloists who want to achieve and see what the world has to offer. Often, they find groups cumbersome and PVP to be more an annoyance than a feature.


yeah I'm a show off >.>

i am an impatient player
and i want advice on how to change

i find myself getting to level 14 or 15 with a character, i have tried them all and tried all classes

and then i find myself giving up on the game as leveling up becomes slow and making a new character

is there any advice i can get in terms of how to be patient?

this is not the thread for that...but my opinion would be that at 15 if you think it goes slow...get to 40 and see how slow the xp is then. are you doing alot of quests? that certainly makes the xp and levels go quicker then just grinding mobs all day. join a good kinship, meet people, chat. find a hobbit that knows what 'teabaggin' is.

Based on your answers, you are KEAS.
Breakdown: Achiever 33.33%, Explorer 66.67%, Killer 80.00%, Socializer 20.00%

KEAS players are often individuals who like to feel immersed in a virtual worlds and see themselves as a great villain or crusader within that world. They seek out challenges against other players, but they are going to find all the areas of that world. They'll often know about the best hiding places and ambush points.

SKEA players enjoy teamwork and cooperation, but feel that the main challenges of a virtual world come from the other players rather than the environment. They enjoy forming groups and alliances that will pit themselves against other players--and they gain the most satisfaction when they defeat organized groups of other players. When they aren't playing against other players, they enjoy all of the social aspects of the game.


That description fits me really well, was a bit surprised that it did. But not entirly. If I only enjoyed pvp I wouldn't be playing lotro. It's not for the pvmp I play it but for, more or less, the lore.
