I kinda understand the op. I’m a bit divided in this one. I get that for some, especially returning players that want to experience the new expansion and new job can be frustrating, put personally I like the levelling experience. When RDM and SAM came out it felt a bit short for me...

The AST starting at 30 felt a bit better as I only did it in Heavensward, so 30-60 felt a bit more fulfilling experience. But again I’m not of those that has to do everything super quick. I like to pace myself. I have all battle classes to 70 except DRK that I’m enjoying it levelling slowly.

I would love if there are new classes in 5.0 there would be an option to level them around 30/40. I still like to once and while do the ARR and level 50 dungeons. It can be fun especially if you have someone new and are helping that player out.

But again I totally get why majority of ppl don’t like this option.
