    Well Power Leveling will exist anyways, but with the cap on, it limits the amount of SP gain. The fact of the matter is that i'm not really going to argue about the power leveling issue, as i'm not really sure how removing the cap or keeping it will have any drastic effects. It would most likely be exploited in one way or another.

    The reason powerleveling is even possible is because the SP gain formula takes into consideration each individual member's rank compared to the monster, allowing a high rank to kill a high rank monster and still have a low rank party member be eligible for SP.

    If the party SP gain formula only considered the rank of the highest party member into its calculation, powerleveling would be impossible.
