    I know how it works and have known within the first hour of patch 1.19a and yes they intended for PLing. How it is achieved is irrelevant if it is wrong they will fix it but some sort of PL will be in the game.

    Though this is how they intended PLing to work because they said the problem in 1.19 was how xp was calculated with a lvl50 in the party. Not outside of it.

    You think its an unambiguously flawed mechanic (useless complaining), which is not the case. It is a perfectly working as intended way of leveling up.

    Now if you want to have a complaint about the animation lock, that would be a competent complaint. Animation lock hinders gameplay, PL does not.

    Please try to comprehend the difference, would make these forums way more useful.

    Lol why are you being such an ass? If people like YOU were gone, it would make these forums that much better.

    PL does effect other people, it hinders how many parties they can get into since they are lower leveled than anyone else, no one will sell low leveled gear, no one will be shouting for low leveled parties, PL takes camps that are good for regular parties.... there is a big list of different things PL effects. Don't be ignorant to the situation.

    You think the developers really expected people to leave the party after getting hate then joining up after they're killed? I honestly don't think so. PL was meant for that person to be outside of the party to begin with, and they can help kill mobs after the original party has claimed them. Now we have a system where people sit on their lazy asses and get free exp.

    Let the people who want to participate in PL do just that and the people who would rather take their time do just that. To each his own.

    lol.

    I've had no trouble finding grind parties or PL parties. If people want to level up but can't get a grind party, they should get a PL party. If people are having trouble finding grind parties, then it simply means there aren't a lot of people who care so much as to purposefully avoid a PL party.

    If there were more continuous content leading to level 50, then I'm sure PL wouldn't be so potent - however given the current state of the game the devs are clearly prioritizing level 50 content because there's a lot more players now with capped classes than not.

    Does PL affect the game? Yes. Does it affect the current state of FFXIV in a negative way? Nope. People can do whichever they want.
