The rest of the new school party is alliance style via GoV camp. If one is good players, they will try to learn their jobs one way or another. Levelling is such a moot point in this game. Learning your job is not, and you must do it regardless on how you level. Stop calling people noob when they use abyssea to level up. Everyone is a noob at one point, old school or new school, it is your willingness to learn the job you just leveled so fast is what makes a difference. Each jobs has their own plus and minus, and you can't expect to learn from fast leveling or party set up - yeah old school party is boring monotonous and super safe, meaning it also breeds lazy players. You can learn more by duo-trio or solo and fighting tons of abyssea NM, hence the entire abyssea expansion is focusing on battle system, since thats pretty much what you will do mostly, battling mobs and various NM. As other posters have said, bad players exist regardless on how they achieve their levels. Stop thinking abyssea is bad for you. Heck I can do speed level via GoV as well, ever heard of zeruhm mines and boyahda tree? With the right set up, 3 people can do the work while the rest can just leech and afk... yeah you heard me, its abyssea style, outside abyssea - it's the new deal, get used to it
Leveled my DRK 0-72 with a PLD and NIN friends static trio fighting IT mobs the entire way. Was great fun. Book burning and leeching are easier and faster, noone can argue that. But there is still a good time to be had partying old school if speed is not a concern.
