Will be interesting to see what happens for sure.
They are thinking about introducing a story-skip potion that boosts you to level 50. I think it is already confirmed for Korea but not sure about the source. I personally think that's a good idea. Even only catching up to HW after my FFXIV break took forever... and it's very discouraging.
