If they were to cap Abyssea to 75+...

Yeah, I hate this attitude. I really do. No matter how you cut it - you can't blame someone for feeling like exp is not very good (even though it is much better than it used to be) when in the time they level from 40-42 they watch an LS mate go from 65-90.

That's backwards. The way it is supposed to work is lower levels take less time and higher levels take more. Abyssea has flipped that around - and new players have every right to complain that they are being asked to take 5-20 times as long to level a job as an established player.

Now, I actually don't give a damn about people leeching Abyssea and honestly I think SE was smart to do it - but something more needs to be done to even the playing field for newer players or this game will die from lack of new blood. And please - lose the attitude.

So people weren't around for the days of slow leveling (I was) - so what? The fact was back then, everyone was in the same boat. It is all about comparative speed - if back then some people were getting 100K an hour and others were getting 10K - you can bet your bottom dollar people would be complaining about that too.

Now that Abyssea exp is so ridiculous it is super hard to find real parties outside of Abyssea - and no matter how much you call down newer players for finding that frustrating - they have every right to be frustrated that they are being shut out of the best exp and left to level alone, with crummy gear, and very few opportunities to even meet people.

Its not super hard to find a party, Its much easier to find them now then even 3 years ago.. Like some have stated; 3-6 hours with no invite... some have waitied days. There was no level sync, so no more then a 2 level gap for max exp. What was done while waiting was missions, farming, level a new job to dunes, try out new things, Helping LS mates, research and so on. You would run around with exp search comment and wait, or make ur own party, or commit to a static party.

Abby (in my opinion) needs not to be entered till 76. Things in the game would come back full circle.

Olor, what server are you on???


SE NEEDS TO PUT PRIVATE MESSAGE IN PLACE.
