Power-leveling is absolutely BROKEN

[Rinsui]

This is complete bullsh*t. Today I was in a "normal" PT in Muntui cellars. there was one LV 50 player AOE-killing ing in the middle of the skeleton room, one in the next room, and some 20 low level people people in-between doing NOTHING. And we were kindly asked to move away, because we "disturbed" their powerleveling party.

THIS IS IDIOTIC.

So (roughly) three parties had already claimed the area and available spawns, and asked your party not to compete with them for the same enemies. Sounds fair to me. I fail to see the idiocy.

because powerlevel should move out and find somewhere else where real players are playing. I don't care what you say how good you make it sound matter what you say you can't say PL is not broken and not break the game.

Just dinged 27 from level 9, in 3 hours! Wooo!

I would assume that they were real players too. If nothing else, they were real accounts. If Rinsui suspected them of being bots or whatnot, I would suggest reporting them. (You can report in this game, right? ... so many missing features, this one might be missing as well.)

Rinsui's party could have also ignored the request and attempted to compete for the enemies.

That's nice.

So wait, wait. Are you saying that a person being powerleveled has the same right to mobs as a legitimate party? If you're going to skip content like that at least have the common courtesy to allow others who actually want to play to experience it.

I mean, you can't be that idiotic. Not only in favor of a broken mechanic, but also in favor of shafting others who don't want to take advantage of a broken mechanic?

Right.

Not reading all of the thread but just wanted to add I hope this shit gets fixed asap. It's completely fucked and ridiculous. If this is working as intended a lot of people are going to quit.

Seriously wtf were they thinking.. sigh

Right.

Yes I actually do think that if someone was there before you, you should go out into the myriad of other locations and find your own place.

You both don't pay the same amount of money to play, so you are getting what you are not paying for, and even if you were paying, the simple fact of the matter is that they were there first.

I don't know how many time i have to say this yoshi- p said that when a high level kill a high level mob for a low level you wont get much exp so it's broken and over 90+ people agree that pl break a game you could deal with it on other way.

Link account,EXP ring, or even powerlevel in the way of ffxi someone heal you but you still doing the work not someone doing the work for you while you afk all day.

So last night while ranking up PUG, a group appeared and started training puks like mad. Seems they were powerleveling they said, which I thought was pretty hilarious to watch.

Not 2 or 3 minutes later, the entire nest respoawned, and I was back in action.

I don't see the problem of this thread.
