    I would worry about the frustration brought upon sending higher level people into lower dungeons. It was bad leveling, can you imagine a CM speed runner in Halatali? Maybe it wouldn't be a big deal, but they will think of it as SE forcing them to do lowby dungeons and they will not be happy.

    My idea I think would be a little better. Soft cap, once you hit 300 you implement diminishing returns. So instead of 40 tomes, you get 30. Then 20, then 10. Probably leave it at 10 until it resets.

    Sane people wouldn't grind so much after 300, but they would still get something if a FC wanted to run a dungeon and asked you to help. It would also encourage people to log in and not just wait for the reset. This in conjuction with the random DF reward system in 2.1 should help alleviate some of the problems we currently face.

    That's my opinion, and the method I would go with if I were SE.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but it sounds like you actually wanna run the same two dungeons that myth currently drop from even more then we already do, plus the lowbies would benefit more from my plan even if they were exposed to the occasional troll.

    Well where I'm a healer I use duty finder way more than premade parties and nearly always have, what I guess would be considered an "Elite" player or more in the party. This would end up leading to awkward situations where you could have three people in full DL running a dungeon with one newbie. I'm not automatically assuming everyone will be a nasty piece of work, moaning and complaining, forcing them to skip cut scenes and so on. But I've seen more than a fair share do it end game, so why would they be any different in earlier dungeons?

    Plus if it's your first dungeon and you get stuck with a bunch of people like that, ruining your experience. That could people off playing altogether if they think the whole community is like that.
    I found plenty of people like that just lvling to 50 the first time around, it's inevitable to meet a jerk here and there
