Power leveling is the GREATEST THING EVER.(thread for people who agree)

[Dokuton-Razortaru]

But Doku, it is broken.

If you are looking out for whats best for FFXIV then you would agree a good community is one step in the right direction. A good community member respects threads and doesn't try to bring them down for their own personal enjoyment. So please again if you are looking out for the FFXIV community please keep your negative thoughts to my thread out, because this is a thread ONLY for people who agree with the topic.

Also please have a wonderful day and i hope puppies rain down from the sky if that's your thing.

You get 300k per hour?

Really?

So you went from 1-50 in 6 hours?

25k per 10 minutes = roughly 150k per hour

Now of course that's not entirely possible, because you'd be leveling so fast you'd have to keep moving to higher level mobs to keep that exp rate going. But it is still quite substantial.

If you don't like it, then you don't like it. That's fine. But there's no need to exaggerate to make your point, just like there's no need for the vocal minority here on the Lodestone to post dozens of threads on the same topic to make themselves look like a majority.

I agree. Let's keep it to the facts. And let's not make topics and spam them just for the sake of combating opinions (like this thread is doing).

I hope SE looks at how many more people are playing now compared to before, and promptly dismisses the noise coming from the Lodestone Whinery.

I love how people are saying that it's PLing that's bringing back players and attracting new ones. Good show.

Couldn't possibly be the Chocobos, Airships, new content, Ifrit Battle, new crafting system, Materia, Grand Companies, etc etc etc.

So, for anyone to give fake info just to nerf this, it's not cheating, it's power leveling and it's legal. Recently, a player was kicked out of an Ls just because they felt it was wrong. As mentioned in the other forums, PL is the norm on XI in abys and I even took a look at that on youtube.

I'm so glad you brought that up. Do you know what's happened to the 90% of FFXI that's not Abyssea? Nobody's playing it. If you're starting a new character, you're SoL. The only thing a new player can do is get to a level to where he can start being PL'd in Abyssea, and after that he'll have to solo just about everything else or hope he has friends who are willing to help him with level capped content. How fun is that?

If you are looking out for whats best for FFXIV then you would agree a good community is one step in the right direction. A good community member respects threads and doesn't try to bring them down for their own personal enjoyment.

A good community member, a good citizen, debates and questions the higher authority. They don't sit complacently and let the status quo continue, especially if they feel it's wrong. This is a forum. It's designed for expressing opinions. Why make a thread asking for only one side of the argument? I'm well within my rights to call out people on their defense of PLing, and I refuse to do it in another topic. Quoting people from this thread in another would be stupid.

The reason there are so many threads is because this is a serious issue. If you can't accept that and respect that, and defend your position with anything but, "have a wonderful day and i hope puppies rain down from the sky if that's your thing," then you might as well shut yourself in a room, cover your ears and escape to your land of puppies (if that's your thing).

While I understand if they nerf it, powerleveling is one of the major reasons some people have come back to the game and stuck with it for the time being. Being able to jump in without stuff leveled and catch up, or even just party (you can contribute by support healing) is really nice. There are a lot of things to level in this game, people certainly aren't just bypassing exp like some people make it seem. That's exaggerating.

Personally, I am enjoying it and would love to see it stay.

Here's my stance:

I love getting new players engaged in the game. I think the rest of my LS would agree. New members feel left out whenever we have had level 50 dungeon runs and they don't have at least 1 class to level 45. In order to not leave anyone behind, I will PL any member of my LS so that they always have the option of coming along. The faster they have a level 50 the sooner they can participate.

To those that say it's cheating. I don't care. Until there is PVP, we're not directly competing with you. Get over it. To those that say it's ruining the economy, it is not. Previously, it took a few weeks of grinding or doing leves to get a class to 50. During that time (because of how stats worked) you could wear r50 gear on an r1 without much consequence, so who in their right mind would spend their gil on r1 gear? Just about everyone goes to get gear from the mini NMs to wear until they get some classes to 50 anyway. To those that say we're stealing their mobs, we're not there are plenty of places to level. At least when I'm the PLer, if there is a legitimate party at the same place, we find a new place to PL. On Fabul, there is hardly ever anyone in Copperbell mines. Copperbell is Abaddon's preferred PLing grounds.

If you don't like PLing, then don't do it, but what we're doing doesn't affect you in any way. Go cry about it to somebody else, I don't care.

Pretty much why I'm doing it. I finally nudged a handful of my friends to move over from XI to XIV, and I like the ability to help them level up to doing content faster.

Yep, it happened, just like in every other MMO.

And just like in every other MMO, this person's pleas will be largely ignored. Nothing to worry about.

Till he or whoever buys an RMT to PL him, which plagued many an MMO as well.
