And even then, not much better until you have Inner Release. Monk and Ninja feel naked without Form Shift and Armor Crush. And Machinist... only hell is Machinist bad below max level.

The current synced system simply makes non-70 content much less engaging. Granted, I'm more annoyed at how easy it all becomes due to how high our synced level is stat wise. But that's another discussion.
That's leveling for you. It not that its synced that its less engaging, it's less engaging because it's not 70 content. Your mindset will adjust next expansion, and pre-80 content will be an eyesore for you much like pre-70 is now. Granted, things like AST not getting any AoE until 52 sucks, but all jobs play as they are intended when you are synced to the level of the instance
