New Lower Level Content

[Bluejay]

The new stuff for 2.5 looks awesome and I am really looking forward to it, but doesn't there seem to be a lack of new stuff for the first 50 levels or so? Am I just missing it, because everything looks to be aimed at end game.

Particularly with 30+ minute queues for dungeons for many classes and the fact that no one seems to be interested in Fates any longer, some new quest lines or game content for the leveling process would be nice. I still have like 10 classes to level

The chance is good that you don't need to be lv50 for Gold Saucer.
Also in 3-4 months all the current high level dungeons will be low level dungeons.

Everything is aimed at end-game because it pleases and applies to the most people. I understand the want for more lower-leveled content, but the fact is that it wouldn't get nearly enough attention to be worth the development time, at least in SE's view.

I think it would get plenty of attention from people leveling up alts or other combat classes.

i dont thik its necessary. Once people reach lv 50 most wont bother doing pre-lv 50 dungeons anymore

If only there were existing dungeons coupled with a roulette that provided bonus experience that fulfilled this purpose.

With the exception of a DPS class that has to wait in excess of 20 minutes per dungeon/roulette.

Make some friends at the same level and spam them,
Just because there is a duty finder,
Doesn't mean there is only a duty finder.

I realize that you don't have to use the duty finder to run the dungeons. I'm just saying that it would be nice for some more low level content in general. Plus spamming the same dungeons over and over and over again can get quite tedious.

Here's the thing: Currently low level queues are a monster, especially for DPS.
Each low level dungeon is set to run along a very narrow path to 50, where it opens up. The gap between each dungeon bracket is roughly uniform from 15-50. Adding more dungeons, unless they added one new dungeon for EACH bracket (which would be an absurd amount of work) would upset the current balance, and also spread out the number of people queueing for each dungeon.
In short, adding more dungeons would just make queueing for dungeons outside the roulettes more of a pain for lower levels.
