Power-leveling is absolutely BROKEN

I think that's his point.

And since the patch 1.19, yes it does.

No, no it doesn't

A lot of you who are making these big arguements for PLing arn't acknoledging the main problem. The problem is not that its a generous boost in XP, the problem is you can get multiple classes 1-30 in a day by forming PL pts where everyone takes turns PLing and thus everyone benefitting. This with the new XP system, I think most the players will be capped out on 50s in DoM/W before the job patch even gets here.

No, no it doesn't

forgive me if my low-level knowledge has offended your 2 jobs at 50 experience, but as far I've seen, equipment matters. Not just for the stats benefit, but the materia.

Gear still doesn't matter, hate to break it to you.

...LOL? Gear VERY MUCH matters now. Stop trolling.

Anyway, put me on the "take out the PL" train. I think the level range system we had before should just be widened a bit so that it isn't a "Oh you're six levels below your friend because you don't have as much time to play, you're screwed" scenario, but still completely gimps PL.

I also think the range from 1-25 needs to be easier. Not as easy as it was previously, but easier.

He's clearly done extensive testing with every piece of materia imbued gear possible to come to the conclusion it doesn't matter, though he didn't want to share his findings with the rest us!

SE must rollback servers lol... otherwise i won't be excited for this game anymore b/c its easy now >.<;;; , i went to do Imperial Devices quest for grand company with 2 guys ~ one of em intended to PL the other so when i finished the dungeon i got about 25~27k exp (in less than 10mins) + 3 rare/ex gear O.o;... i was lucky XD but i rly don't want it to be easy to this extent... ; w ;

SE must roll the servers forward and keep this thing going because its awesome wooooo

To sum:
- Getting PLed will not happen all the time, it's rigorous, tedious, and mind numbing for the person giving.
- It helps get your friends to higher level so that you can play and enjoy this game with them.
- It will most likely not be exploited due to facet number one, and if it is botted, SE will deal with that idea.
- It benefits the PL as well as those being PLed by giving minor amounts of exp (I gained 2 levels on my level 33 THM PLing my friends)
- It helps mentor new people in the game with a veteran who might share some knowledge with them while PLing (ie. this aggros, that doesn't, suggestions for party places when the PL session is over etc.) **this depends on the person, but I have found most people to be helpful**

It will be easy to find a pl because ppl will take a turn to pl the others, so a guy will pl a pt for a time, then another take his place and so go on. This will cause problem on ppl that doesn't have a rank 50 for the reason "you can't pl the others, we only want ppl that has a rank 50".

I agree, it needs to be fixed. Players are so lazy that they would rather claim there levels the cheapest way possible then rather EARN IT. It's pathetic.
