Please let us keep our abilities on sync down

Personally, that's fine compared to how we are doing it. 1 person who is leveling and feels super cool and is helping me speed run, vs everyone playing a terrible version of themselves? I'll take it. Though WoW could do it better, sure lol. The level 10 warriors that are geared for it are hilariously different.

I don't think so. The main difference is that it doesn't really matter because you aren't synced for anything other than easy timewalking dungeons, while in FFXIV syncing for old endgame content is actually a thing.

There's also the issue of somehow needing to find a way to have a CNJ with only Stone, Aero and Cure 1 perform at the same level as a lvl 100 WHM with Holy and a full suite of oGCD heals, and the equivalent issue for tanks, to avoid scenarios where people are annoyed by being matched with low level sprouts.

I think a much healthier solution to the problem would be to holistically rework the leveling experience so that jobs don't feel as horrendous to play at lower levels.
