Main Scenario Restriction Bloodstorm - Very Very Bad idea.

[Lambdafish]

Considering Rogue and Ninja aren't gated behind 2.2, they could probably open every job without any MSQ restrictions unrelated to the real level of the quest. (i.e gating a lvl 35 behing Brayflox's Longstop completion is legit, gating it behind defeating Ultima Weapon makes no sense.)

Rogue was also a class that started at lvl 1. It was also part of ARR, so there were no new zones (essentially they added a new base class, rather than an expansion job). If you ever played through the DRK questline, the plot is very dependent on your previous actions as the WoL, which is a freedom allowed by restriction, whereas if you started at say lvl 30, the advanced job would simply treat you as an adventurer. This extra freedom is worth it if all you need to do is finish 2.0 (which is not hard).

We should be designing the game for existing players, as well as new players, and the idea of an expansion is a continuation of the core, and my idea is a compromise that allows everyone to be happy.
