It is only more time consuming.
Takes longer to level up, takes longer to find good items. However as it takes longer to gain experience all your going to be doing is playing the same levels over and over, for a longer amount of time before you move up to the next lv.
More exp needed on low = you simply play that same lv over and over more times than you would do on high server. Also considering that you will be playing each level more times on low than high, the drops rate then are fairly equal.
ex:
High server:
You just started playing for your first time on high server. You play lv 1 20 times and reach lv 2, also getting your +3 set after 10 games.
Low server:
You just started playing for your first time on high server. You play lv 1 40 times and reach lv 2, also getting your +3 set after 20 games.
That is just more time consuming to be playing on low. The sector levels in low are the exact same as in high, the sector levels are not more difficult or more easy. The only change is you will be doing each level more times on low than high, thus reaching the max lv on high faster than low. That is not more challenging, that is just more time consuming.
Here is another example:
Lets use parallel universes for this example.
So in one universe you chose to play on high. Oh the other you chose to play on low. In both of these universes you spend the same amount of time per day (lets say you spend 1 hour a day playing BC (just a random number,)) and you also follow the same strategy to level up. Ex: You start at lv 1, once you reach lv 5 you do start grinding lv 8 once your lv 10 you start grinding the next level in the list and ect. We will also say that you have never played before, thus you have no OP items, there were no other people to leech off of or play with, and you did no events.
High:
You spend 5 days soloing lv 1 to reach lv 5.
Low:
You spend 10 days soloing lv 1 to reach lv 5.
High:
You spend 20 days soloing lv 8 to reach lv 10.
Low:
You spend 40 days soloing lv 8 to reach lv 10.
Difference? More time consuming.
Of course Ross did not include people or events into his example. Reason why:

Low server is not more challenging, besides the fact that there is few people to leech off of rather than high server which means *gasp* you need to do the sectioning yourself, rather than leeching off some Korean.
Ross went and looked at the mobs hp in low and high and they are the exact same. If you think spending more time to reach the max lv is more challenging, then go ahead and think that. IRo challenging = something hard like doing lv 200 with a lv 1. Rather than your opinion of just doing things over and over for a longer period of time. That is just boring and annoying.
Stop trying to make yourself look smart by stating multiple scenarios in which validates your point, I got it the first time.
Sir, the time you put into the game, IS the challenging part. Its more challenging, because you sit up all night trying to grind the same level forever (in your example, no op items, events, no people to leech from)
No one said it was more difficult, it takes time and effort to beat levels all day for a longer time then usually with no one to leech from.
I stated it was more CHALLENGING therefore it being a variable to whatever, in my standards, is more challenging. I was on the same page, you didnt have to repeat.
Ross felt like you would not understand it the first time.
Well that sounds fun. So apparently to you time is proportional to how challenging something is. So if you play on high server for 100 hours, and play on low server for 99 hours, does that make high server more challenging? Even if you reach the max level on high, you can still continue to play. You can even delete your account / make a new one and start all over again.
Just no note, difficulty does affect how challenging something is. That is why Ross brought up the lv 1 soloing lv 200 thing. Anyone can spend a long time to reach the max level in a game. However not every one can solo lv 200 with a item-less level 1.
Getting max lv first in a competitive game? Ya shur that can be challenging. Simply trying to reach the max lv in the game which no one / very low amount of people play, and they don't really care about getting first. Ok, gratz you completed your goal.
What your doing is taking what I said and ridiculing it without thinking first.
I meant the low box rates and exp + the extra time it takes. Is what makes it more "challenging"
The fact that you
can't just
SIT in a lobby and get leveled. And also the fact that if you win the level, you wont get better armor to help you fight the tougher enemies. The low exp creates the time length which drags out the day, and you have to be awake technically to play.. after playing long amounts of gameplay would drain the energy to want to play the same level over and over (more then high server) and therefore I would get sick of game, or sick of playing the same level.
Again. Stop with wall of texts.
And also, there is no motivation after 221 to get levels, no one would play CONSISTENTLY enough because they don't NEED to.
Stop with the bullshit scenarios that arent related to daily life, we were never talking about THE HOURS it takes of playing, were talking about the motivation to get to level 221 on the low server compared to high, which is the time difference. I can play for 30 minutes a day, and be less
motivated to grind AND GET LOW XP, compared to playing on high server and getting higher xp.
