Like most people that far along, they are done with quests.

I was incredibly upset to find out i get zero rep for using my maxxed staff. I just turned level 36 notoriety. I can not believe i get zero credit when defeating enemies still in the yellow and red for me with my staff. And, other ppl that have maxxed notoriety got to get full potential from their weapons and the rest of us do not.

I totally agree. What's the point of mastering it, which takes ALOT of time, if you don't benefit from using it?

They can't leave it that way forever. They will raise the cap once they add more content and there will be no way to get to that higher level without being able to get credit for the items you fight with.

They will realize they can't keep this soon enough. Just a bit of confusion for some for now, but I still think everyone can reach level 40 as is, just a guess.

The benefit will be being able to defeat the higher enemies if the expansion ever comes out.

This might be a way to slow people down from reaching 40 so fast. I know that now that my doll doesn't give me rep, I'm using other weapons and not leveling quite as fast. Using my doll along with other weapons, I was able to get over 200 per molusk consistently, now it's only about 120-150.

Does this include Sailing and Cannon? Could see a problem for those non-land-lubbers.
