So what is the point in them spending time to make fights more challenging if they are going to ruin it like this.

People can say well most people probably won't use a PL, well I wish i could believe that but using the whole leve abandoning thing as a basis I imagine a lot will. With Leve abandoning people said the same thing when it started and then I am sure by the end the majority of players were doing it, I know I was and out of every person I know I can't think of anyone who wasn't by the end.
Sorry but that's not the same thing at all. If you want to compare it to something useful, how many people did you know who continued to do leve-link groups at 50 just to help others level?

It is far more rare because the person power leveling gets nothing out of it. Power leveling has only ruined grouping in one MMO that I know of and that is EQ1, but this is because EQ1 did no properly cap XP allowing powerleveling to be crazy super fast, that combined with the just complete void of players to group with (one class/character system) meant people either powerleveled or likely quit the game before they reached cap.
