Simple questions.

I would like some opinions on what people suggest as a max level for a server. Right now mine is at 65. I am basing that on PEQ being fairly complete up to GoD expansion. I have been tossing around going to level 70, but am afraid that would remove a bit of the challenge of going through PoP.

Does the updater included with the automatic installer download all the latest database updates and implement them or do I need to do this manually? I was assuming as new content is added that this would update the database, but I am not sure so thought I better ask.

Thanks for your advice and replies.

If you use Akk's installer I believe he has the default set at level 68. I debated the same thing when I installed my server around December of 2015. Now, most of us are 70 with 40-100 AA each. We still get owned by stage/tier four POP mobs on occasion with one group. Even pre-POP bosses can give us trouble; especially the Avatar of War sequence. I think you'd be okay with a level 70 bump max level. My plan is to raise the level cap to 72 or 75 around Christmastime.

Our most recent hilarious encounter was with Maestro of Rancor in Hate; we walked in there thinking we would destroy him and we did until about 15 percent when i forgot to recast slow because i was using a new, more powerful version of it with a shorter duration. Whoops; we all went down in about 20 seconds. The little things :p

All of your content should automatically install with Akk's repack so you should be good there.
