A potential rework to the level-sync system.

[Deceptus]

I have and always will think we should keep our skills while level synced. Perhaps even a box we can check just like min ilvl is selectable

1) Synced Weapon damage will normalize the damage at lower levels.
2) The content we are talking about is old, and outdated. Who honestly cares if we steamroll it?

Might a DPS pull aggro by blasting foul on a pack of enemies? Yes. Will they die from it? Maybe, maybe not. MAYBE they might learn some aggro management skills that have been lost over the last 6+ years.

In fact, one of the biggest complaints about keeping skills synced down is "What if a DPS goes ham and a tank is a sprout and doesn't have those skills?"

I would bet if we allowed tanks and healers to keep their skills synced down and the DPS to not keep them to avoid that exact scenario, DPS would be screaming to keep their skills.

I've been in numerous dungeons where the tanks were utterly incompetent and we still managed the run. Hell, I've tanked low level instances on my SCH PLENTY of times because of a sprout tank who for some reason didn't know aoe existed or never turned on their tank stance. Even after being asked to do it.

Low level instances are nothing more than DPS races anyway. If for some reason, you don't know how to properly play your job by Dzemael Darkhold, where most jobs should have a good deal of their kit, that's a you problem and quite honestly you simply need to play a bit better.

For those people who for some reason demand the challenge, minimum ilvl exists. Go find like minded people who share your goals.
