also boils down to the fact that classes mean nothing besides a few GK's, gear and a tiny bit of leveling can even up most players, and prepping is nearly impossible now for anyone not rich

i don't see what the hate for xmas dungeon is all about, no items released during that were gamebreaking (like easter with con+1 speed+1 shields for free), and the leveling wasn't planned to be year long (and the 2 weeks it was released, to my knowledge, it was satisfactory in doing the intended goal of accumulating a large playercount)
