Instanced Raids Unveiled!

They can't have a level cap on the rank 25 dungeon because it gives xp. People will soon lvl past the cap say 30 and then can't access that dungeon again, till they have another class in that level range.

That's not how it works. If you are at level 31+, once you enter the instance, you will be delevel-synced to level 30.

Excellent point puff! Go vote!

I thought you said you knew how this worked? O.o

I thought his point was, if the dungeon offers SP and you cap it, then you won't gain SP after being capped.

Doesn't seem that way to me.

Besides, who says you can't still earn SP even if you're delevel-synced?

If you are capped, by definition you can't go higher. I assume it would work the same as being capped at 50.

I'm talking about in the scenario where you are a rank 42 or whatever class desynced to rank 30.

A cap is a cap isn't it? Even at rank 42, if you are CAPPED at r30, by definition you shouldn't be getting SP. Can someone confirm how it was in CoP? I'm pretty sure that if you went into a lvl 30 Promy on a rank 40 job, you didn't get XP.

If you were capped everything about you was changed, including your ability to obtain exp. For all intents and purposes you were level 30 (or whatever level) and obtained exp as such. The exp wasn't GOOD but you still got it.

You still got EXP for level sync in FF11, I don't see why it can't be any different. As long as you kill mobs that are rank-appropriate (real level or synced level) it doesn't matter since you are killing mobs that are challenging.

In FFXI, characters under level cap still earned exp on mobs that gave exp. They still gained their levels. But the cap prevented that level from manifesting until they were out of the level cap.

It's a normal political move... encourage someone to vote who misunderstands the issue in a manner that works in your favor.
