The most Limited Content: Low-Level Dungeons

[Jojoya]

But it can be argued that they are not accommodating new players very well by frustrating higher level players with helping them. Is there anything being gained by depriving higher level players of their abilities in Sastasha?

How fun are those dungeons going to be for the new players when they can't hit anything because the more advanced players have already killed them with their advanced toolkits and rushed ahead while the new player is still trying to figure things out?

The leveling roulette is optional. There are plenty of other ways for higher level players to get tomestones if they find a limited toolkit in low level dungeons too frustrating. There will still be other players queueing to help the new players have a good experience.

I just don't understand the point of restricting veterans from their skill.

Because those low level dungeons aren't designed around the higher level skills with the higher level potencies. Mobs would melt immediately, which isn't a good experience for the new player who needs mobs to stay alive for a bit if they're going to get the chance to get used to their own abilities.

Let's say SE had a way to allow you to keep all your abilities but their potencies would all be reduced to 1 if the dungeon level is lower than the level that the ability is learned. You'd be able to use your abilities just as you want. Would you still be happy, or would you start complaining that it's hurting your DPS?

We aren't talking about SE just giving high level players their full kits and letting them go ham in Copperbell Mines. We are talking about SE balancing the kit in low level content, so it can be used in a low level content. The dungeons would still go at the same pace - the difference would be that high level players would have access to more tools, and require to do a proper rotation for the same damage.

So a mnk should be scaled down in sastasha so that GL4 does the same amount of damage as GL1? Sounds like a waste of developer resources.
