PL Woes

[NoctisUmbra]

Some of the best players I have the pleasure of playing with right now were PLed. Even people who are PLed have to play in xp parties from 40-50 at least. Usually even earlier.

Whether one got PLed or grinded in xp parties does not correlate with how skilled they are at whatever job they have. In the end, besides various personal factors, what matters more is direct experience in endgame content playing that job.

Make sense please.

The point I'm getting at is that some players need a hard supplementation to their general lack of skill at the game. This battle system, which requires little more than, again, Curaga and Stoneskin along with the potential for entirely skipping mid-game content through the back-alley of PL teaches them little more than those few tactics which otherwise might not even need explaining at such a critical time as during a major battle.

Even then, if they are so bad at what they do, the community would collectively get to know them as sub-par through their mid-game and would have otherwise known what to expect. Something that is very hard to derive from a player whose necessary skills for survival are so limited as to 2-3 actions, given that they don't opt out of completely to be powerleveled.
