So, to sum up, if you care about endgame, you can get there faster through powerleveling. If you care about leveling at your own pace without any help, then don't get powerleveled and enjoy the existing low level content at your leisure. If one of these options isn't fun for you, then don't do it. It's a game. Have fun with it.

once again everyone would do the powerlevel i just saw 10 ppl pass by me each with a 50 and 20-30 getting party level. No one going to do anything else but that.

sorry it have to be fix.

Choose the way you enjoy.

You can choose to get mad at the plvl killing all your mobs while you're trying to have a legitimate party.
Edit; Yes, it has already happened to me. Few hours ago.

You can choose to give up and get a plvl.

Or, you can choose to help send the message that this needs to be fixed.

If the mindless afk+aoe zergs going on in Muntuy and other spots at the moment really is what Yoshi wanted... Good night, FFXIV. (;.; )/

So what if everyone is level 50 now? The game has been out a year. Having a substantial endgame crowd sounds about right for an MMO that old. It was hard for the first people to reach rank 50. But they've had 10 or so months to bask in that glory for a task that's been repeated by so many others since that time.

Level 50 is not a big deal anymore. It's not a unique accomplishment. Hasn't been for some time. Just let it go.

Seriously?! I have to do it a third time?

It's not about jealousy from veterans from launch.
It's not about pride, or gloating from the top of the mountain.
It's not about greed, it's not like anyone wants to have a "special class" by being 50. (That notion already doesn't exist.)
It's not about the lack of content, that is being fixed every patch.

It. Simply. Breaks. The. Game.
I don't know how this couldn't be any more clear, any more true, any more resoundingly correct.

Eh, that's not terrible.
Power leveling happens in every MMO ever. I've leeched exp in nearly every MMO I've played.

How about you let it go? while we try and save this game for you? i'm sorry if you agree with this type of level up system but a big % of us don't and should not be like this. FFXI got killed for the same reason we don't want to happen in ffxiv top of that there not enough thing to do at the end of this game anyways so what the big deal of race to max.

Keyword "I've leeched exp in nearly ever MMO I've played" doesn't mean everyone else likes leeching and most mmos plvlign doesn't compare to the plvling we have in ffxiv.

So what? Then don't do it.
Why bother to worry about what others are doing?
