Naoki Yoshida's Comment in Regard to Jump Potions/Boost Potions

No, it's not. Case 1: Max level + max gear. Case 2: Not max level + not max gear. On what planet are max and not max the same thing?

Case 1 : buys 3.x completion, i270 gear, level 60. Case 2 : buys 3.x completion, i270 gear, level 60.

Exact same animal.

Max vs not max is irrelevant. The principle, buying gear, power (levels), content wins, remains exactly the same regardless of when it is purchased.

Context is everything my friend. I have grown weary of people arguing based on emotion rather than logic. You win.

It is logic, just a logic you don't want to accept.

And you are correct, context is everything. Under no context should buying power, buying levels, buying content clears or wins, ever be permitted. Someone (without source) even said Yoshi had said something to that effect (though not the words I just used).

What was it again?

Not being max level means the player has some time to learn his class, which is what impact other players.

Ummm...yeah, no. FATE grinds and Palace of the Dead pretty much made it unnecessary to learn anything.
