Power-leveling is absolutely BROKEN

[Tempast]

I'm pretty sure everyone would say "yes". Rapid leveling is one thing, going from lvl30 - 40 while I'm alt+tabbed playing League of Legends is NOT OK.

The question I have for the community is a simple one.

"Do you want FFXIV to be a game with very rapid leveling ... or not?"

I'm pretty sure everyone would say "yes". Rapid leveling is one thing, going from lvl30 - 40 while I'm alt+tabbed playing League of Legends is NOT OK.

So if I understand what you are saying Tempast, it's not that a player can reach level cap in FFXIV in less than a 50 hours, it's that they can do it without actually playing FFXIV.

Please let me know if I have misunderstood you.

That's exactly my point. I personally enjoy xp parties, and wouldn't mind taking the greater portion of a year to reach max level, but most people hate that.

So a fast leveling experience is to be expected. But to have one person kill stuff while 7 people are afk for 3 hours to gain 10-15 levels.. this should not be possible.

Besides the rapid level progression a player gets from PL, it is a sad fact that the only requirement for that is to be simply present in game.
Forget about playing the game, forget about actively taking part in any which way.

Maybe SE should advertise on the box for relaunch:

[SIZE="6"]"pay to play to play another game, gain your levels all the same!"[/SIZE]

you can have that one for free SE.
