Main Scenario Restriction Bloodstorm - Very Very Bad idea.

[Lambdafish]

The perfect way to structure the expansion in my opinion:

- Jobs outside the expansion area, must have beaten 2.0 (not 2.55) in order to unlock (people will cry foul, but logistically it makes the most sense as you can't have the job until 30 (if it starts at 30), and locking it behind level 50 allows the story to be structured around you actually being the WoL. People forget that the class quest story has MSQ implications). However you should not have to get all the way into Ala Mhigo before you can get your level 30 job (that you have to level to 60 before you can actually use in the expansion zone)
- Must have beaten 2.x MSQ and 3.0 MSQ (not 3.x, only the initial expansion story) - They cannot do any less than this, the story of 4.x is a continuation of the overarching MSQ and these questlines hold far too much context that will be used in 4.x. People can say that they can make a summary cutscene, and yes they can, of 3.1 onwards, but there is far too much information in two entire expansions to be condensed into a single cutscene.

I understand the arguments to an extent but people forget what the meaning of the word EXPANSION is, it is expanding upon what we have already, an additional node attached to a core, and it is expected that elements of the core (ARR) need to be done before you can access the expansion.

PSA: If you haven't done your MSQ, you have ~8 months to do it
