Possible level/story jumps....really?

I don't see how it can be seen as such. Unless it automatically gives you Binding Coil, Alexander Savage and EX Primal gear/weapons/clears, then... what are you winning?

Fron my experience with MMOs (limited primarily to this game and hearsay about XI), The very opportunity to play/clear content is itself a reward for clearing other content. In which case getting as far as assessing Coil and Alexander from day one would be seen as P2W, (Also there is also the fact that Dusk Vigil is tuned to around i110, the very same ilevel as 2nd Coil)
