Some thoughts on Level Sync and Abilities

[Verlyn]

The easiest point to make is that low level dungeons were never meant to be remotely difficult in the first place. Even in ARR, the penalty for not doing Orcatooth and Gyge's and Firemane's mechanics is inconveninece. You could heal through the adds if they spawn, or the party damage, and you have an absolute eternity before they do. Aside from possibly healers, I don't see a full skillset with reduced potency altering the already compromised "experience" of something like Sastasha or Halatali.

Balance starts to become more of a concern once you're approaching 45-50 and frankly there is no saving those dungeons. People walk through Praetorium and Wanderer's Palace and the like barely having to heal. Past 50, everything becomes much closer together so the extra skills can coexist more easily.

In fairness, those two instances (and others right around them) are sorta poor examples due to the wide ilvl range. Minimum for Prae is i42. Wanderer's is i45. Prae doesn't have a max sync, so most are running it synced to a hypothetical i130 or so (I assume), and through job quests players should be able to far surpass i42 with little effort or deviation. Wanderer's is synced to max i110, so, that's still a huge range, between pre-50 stats and what you can achieve with just a handful of Poetics.
