Sorry did I understand you wrong but did you call me a jackass for pointing out that a party full of 50s would like to have an incentive to stay in exp party for x amount of time, other than just helping a fellow player out?

How selfish of me to actually get something out of my playtime...

Oh, I didn't call you a jackass, Mamba. I called the party of 50s a jackass :D
Really, why would you need any incentive to hang out with some fellow player? That's a wholly alien concept to me

Devs have already said its coming.
To the doomsayers, claiming it's the end of worlds.
Try to use logic before you repeat the same BS said in all of the other previous threads about this.
EVERY SINGLE complaint EVER said about Lv Sync, had NOTHING to do with the concept of Lv Sync itself. Just complaints about OTHER game mechanics and features (or lack there of) which caused the issues they complained about. Including every single one mentioned here.

Ah ok, Sorry about that then :D
I do actually already help the nooblettes out in my linkshell quite a bit with stuff like getting their choco and killing NMs for their gear etc.
I don't think I could endure hours of grinding in level sync party though if in the end the only reward would be my friend getting from lvl 10 to 20.

You know, I would love level sync. But I'd really like to see them do something to prevent people from using level sync 1-50. I can think of at least a few people in XI who got their first 75 exclusively in level sync parties, and then wandered around with all of their skills at the caps for the late 20s and early 30s.

Except, in XIV, we don't even have skill levels to make people want to play at (or near) their actual level. So really, there's nothing keeping people from hitting level 50 without ever playing anything past level 15.

Even though people will want to try out their shiny new skillz, I'd like to see some sort of reason to at least be near your level. I.e. protection against the lv.75 ninja that sent me a /tell of "What's SATA?" when he started doing endgame with one of my shells.

I loved Level Sync in FFXI - it really helped reduce the time it took to form a functioning XP party. And yeah, Yoshi and the devs have confirmed its coming (in some shape or form).

I don't really understand some players' arguments against it; my guess is maybe they had a few bad experiences with it or have heard some unconfirmed rumors about it or something. Not saying it'll be the "miracle patch" by any means, but its the only way to get 6 - 8 players who are LFG and gave a 20+ level gap to be able to party with each other to gain optimal xp.

No thanks thinking about it level sync did mess up FFXI for everyone,.

Level sync will be great! I miss being able to join in a party that's below my lvl for some fun. I guess once you're 50 the only incentive of doing it is for fun and for materia? :P
I'm definitely for it~

I think that rather than level-sync, it would be nice if there were nice zones 'light' parties could grind in that didn't necessarily require a mage. Because yes, it is currently a little rough to find a lower level healer atm. However, I am also against level sync. I always personally thought it cheapened the exping process. Also, since at least currently you can solo leves for decent sp, be power-leveled quickly and easily to over rank 30 etc. I just don't see an actual need for it atm. There usually are sb/exp parties rank 30+ on my server and it doesn't seem like they are having tank/mage issues when recruiting for them.
