Possible level/story jumps....really?

[The_Last_Dragoon]

With exception of people not learning class, why would you care if someone skips story and/levels?

This is something that can't be excused, and in a game where time = money, it is essentially making it so that a player with infinite cash has an in-game advantage over another player.

From 4.0 I wouldn't mind new players starting at 30 to be honest, although I would increase the Hall of Novice trials and make them compulsory.

I don't agree with producing items on the Mogstation that give any boost to the player whatsoever. If you wanna give players that item then give them it for free. Mogstation glamour items only, once we say yes to this it is a slippery slope to it becoming a p2p and f2p game.

Technically you can easily hit level 30 in 2 days if you were recruited by a friend since you get the Circlet and potentially get the exp boost from the FC. I agree that it's a slippery slope, and it's one I hope they don't even give a wayward glance towards.
