I actually came back to the game about 3 months ago, previously when I played abyssea wasn't out yet, and the cap was still 75.

Anyone who complains about this is being ridiculous. NO ONE IS FORCING YOU TO HAVE LEECHERS. Also, abbysea pts go so insanely fast, they are not screwing up your xp in a way that you should complain. The fact you can even get more than one level a day is huge past 75 compared to the old ways.

And lol at old content is "dead". The only "dead" content are certain xp areas, and SE has already started reviving those areas with things like GoV, sky gear augments, etc. There are still tons of people who seek pts, and because of level sync there is nothing stopping you from making a party in the old areas.

Heck I've been doing that a lot lately, becuase I had no mage subjobs and decided I finally wanted to take rdm up. Not bothering to leech some jobs that only need to get to 45, and I rarely have to seek long before getting a regular pt.


Basically, this idea just takes away, and does nothing. No one is forcing you to leech, no one is forcing you to have them in your pt, no one is even forcing you to xp in abyssea at all.
While you have points, the idea that you can simply ignore the fact that people are leeching and make your own EXP parties is a bit misleading.

A simple /sea all 30-75 during NA prime right now is pulling up 12 people across 45 levels LFP. Yeah, safe to say that PT wont be happening and you'll be soloing if you don't get the opportunity to leech.

You can't really close your eyes and pretend leeching hasn't basically killed off EXP the "old" way, regardless of how you feel about it. You either leech or you solo to 75 through FoV now. For anyone without the resources to leech to cap, you're stuck doing FoV/GoV - an epic grind alone.
