Power-leveling is absolutely BROKEN

[Travesty]

Fail. The game isn't broken by something that is optional. It's not even like walking into a bugged area where you can't move.

I love how so many people think that just because something is optional, it has no effect on the people who don't choose that option. What world do you guys live in?

Here's an example: If there was an optional NPC in the game that gave you every piece of gear that is currently made by crafters, you think that wouldn't hurt crafters?

Have you played XI? Have you ever heard of Abyssea?

I played XI for 7 years. You still can't even come close to comparing what we have in XIV now, to anything in XI.
