Power-leveling is absolutely BROKEN

[Travesty]

After 1.18 i got ARC from rank 15-25 in 2 days (and i worked so it was like 4-7 hours tops)... the fast lvling has ALWAYS been there for low levels.

Stop bitching.

If they change it i will not care if they leave it i will not care why? because If you get to lvl 25 from lv 15 in 2 mins or 2 hours IT WILL NOT effect me in the least.

Play your game worry about you.

We're not talking about fast leveling for "low levels." We're talking about the ability to go from 1-50 in a day. 35-44 in 2 hours.

Acting like changes to the game that are that drastic don't affect people that don't use them is just being stupid. It affects the game as a whole, for everyone, regardless of how they play individually. I am worrying about me.

Yeah then there will be more people to do (Instanced raid) when I'm online and Ifrit... sounds like a real problem /sike.

Seriously, just close this thread. You aren't going to sell anyone who isn't already for or against it. Not everyone will be using PL'ing to level. Leveling is fast in general... 5 days, 2 days, 3 days or even 1 day what difference does it really make? You can get max pretty fast by partying or PL. This whole thread is /useless because it's only pointing out what Yoshi already accepted as a probable outcome from patch 1.19 and he deemed ok.

Your a troll if you think a lvl 50 can PL a lvl 45.. the monster would crush them.

Also your a troll if you think EVERYONE is gonna have friends to PL them from lvl 1-50.

Stop going to the extreme, think a little, breath, relax. then post.

Only Low lvls benefit from PLs in most cases.

All aboard the Logic-Train... conductor DNO is driving!

I love how Lodestone is full of Doom Syndrome kids who use extreme examples in an attempt to prove a point. 100% of people are going to PL and go from 1 - 50 in one day and then FFXIV will be empty cause... uh.. cause everyone will quit because... uh... because!!!!!!!!!! /DOOM /sike

I don't believe a 50 can PL a 45 very well. Obviously, there will be diminishing returns at some point, probably around level 45.

And I don't think everyone will have friends to PL them. But enough will for it to damage the game balance.

There's a reason that a mechanic like this doesn't exist in any other mmo. It's very obviously game breaking. People who can't see that are shortsighted, dumb, or don't care if the game breaks.

When was this game not broken? There has been leveling exploits throughout its entire 1 year life... so?

The point is they are supposed to be fixing it, not making it worse.

So even though they're trying to fix it, we shouldn't complain when a new one pops up because hey, sh*t was already broken?

Genius.

The point is that there is always going to be some loop hole or leveling exploit that people find. Plug one hole and another springs up.
