[Dev1001] Strategy or Exploit

Local leves are the same way.

1) I am not sure about this...I had a Bluefog leve I had to turn in a long while back but I could not reach there. I do not recall being able to overwrite it with another leve. Like I said though...I am not sure about that. You could however complete up to 1 item short of the goal and fail the rest of the synths purposely making the leve vanish. However, this would not be the same as autofailing a battle leve as you would not automatically receive the same leve again and would be required to choose a leve at the leve counter. It might be the very same leve but that leve would be subject to the same random possibility of popping up and not be guaranteed. With the battle leve it would simply lose the red check and be doable again.

2) I think he was referring more to the fact that local leves can not be party stacked or GAed. Gathering leves can only be GAed. 5-6k SP from a very difficult synth for crafting or a gathering leve is a bit different than the mass amounts of SP gained by leve linking and GAing battle leves. Even at levels 40-50 gaining a level with a single 8 optimal battle leve set is an easy task with this method. With crafting you would be lucky to find 8 leves of the same class at optimal levels and they would come nowhere near leveling you in a single set at 40-50. With gathering leves you can only obtain 6 leves maximum at optimal level for a single class.

I understand the concept of the grind being a hassle, but I am not sure that this method of leveling should be encouraged.
