The point is that there is always going to be some loop hole or leveling exploit that people find. Plug one hole and another springs up.Quote:

Q: After the claiming system change in patch 1.19, I'm afraid everyone will be power leveling each other. What do you think of this?
A: It depends on what you consider power leveling. For example, if my friend and I were playing completely different games. I've already reached the level 50 cap, and then I invite my friend. Of course I want to do end game content like Ifrit with him, but I invited him, and he wants to play too, and we are really good friends so I want to help him out.
I can help him out with my level 50 character when he's being attacked by a monster. Of course it's going to lower the XP a bit, but I'd like to make it a bit loose and not too strict. I just want to make sure friends are able to help each other if they want to challenge content together by filling the gap.

It's a game and I'd rather do end game content then level classes I don't like but "need" there skill / abilities.Quote:

10-08-2011, 03:00 AMRemVye"Re-working" low level content? You mean adding a non-instanced R15 open world dungeon? Am I missing something here?Quote:

He also says he wants the 50 to be able to help when the lower level is "being attacked by a monster" which is not what we're seeing. We're seeing high levels just slaughtering groups of mobs for low level players.Quote:

make sure friends are able to help each other...on the same content...and fill up the level gap...(his friend is lvl 1 and he is lvl 50)
he doesn't say NOT in a day, either... -
