Raise the Minimum Requirement for entering Abyssea to Lv70 or 75

[Arlan]

No Thanks!
I like the idea of being able to leach if u got friends who can help. I enjoy more jobs than i ever had cause of this option. Case is closed.

There are too many of these threads, dont need more.
most ppl i know are happy with how it currently is.

Old-time partying just isn't going to meet expectations in the face of a post-Abyssea era. S-E have doubled the experience point vales of all mobs in the common world, as well as removed restrictions on regimen books. But even granting that, many who have had a taste of that sweet Abyssea experience intake will be hesitant to return to what the OP is asking, unless they want a chance of backdrop.

Putting this genie back in its lamp would be nigh on impossible in the face of the predicted complaints that would come with such a move. And even if it were to happen, would it be the right thing to do? The players who bought these add-ons with the promise of some low-level content (think running around and doing fame quests) would have had a bait-and-switch pulled on them after the fact. That would be a lousy deal, and one that I couldn't support.

OP, you want them to put a level restriction on Abyssea in order to force people to go back to the old zones. This is the problem in a nutshell: you want to force people to do something they don't want to do. Perhaps if old content were upgraded to suit the palette of the average post-Abyssea player, maybe these zones would see more traffic. A drop in FoV restrictions, and the recently added GoV were good steps in this direction. But if it won't match (or even come relatively close) to what you get in Abyssea, why would anyone go back?

^ This. If the "level to 75 outside of Abyssea" crowd had any actual support among the playerbase at large, we'd still be seeing ToAU bird parties at the very least. But we don't.

Don't worry, though. People complained about leveling up without skill regarding manaburns, arrowburns, mnkburns, Colibri TPburns, and Campaign 75s. They never got what they wanted, and you won't either. Have a nice day.
