Bozja Southern: Level 16+ death penalty being applied to a level 15 synced character

Date & Time: 30May2021
Frequency: On Death
World name: Behemoth
Character name: Deceptus Keelon
Party or solo: Both

Steps:

1. Zone into Bozja Southern front above level 15 Resistance Rank
2. Die to any attack
3. The mettle death penalty will be whatever level you are above rank 15.

This has the following repercussions:

If you are Resistance rank 25 and go into Castrum Lacus Litore. The end mettle gain is 195,000 for completion. The death penalty for lvl 25 is 61,300. After 3 deaths (common), the entire run is worthless from a mettle perspective. This wouldn't be the case if you went into CLL at lvl 10-15 which would have been normal. Those death penalties are MUCH lower.

If you are forced to sync for content, then the death penalty should match that synced content.

um just go back into zadnor and do some skirmishes/CE's you'll get it back in no time.

Except.. you don’t get synced to rank 15 in the Bozjan Southern Front nor in Delubrum, your rank is your rank no matter which piece of content you go in to. Should the content give more mettle the higher rank you are? Yes I feel it should. However the death penalty is working as intended since you are that specific rank.

You can't rank sync, that's not a thing.
