    How, exactly, do you think level sync works? It literally reduces your level to match the level range of the content you're doing. Your level does more than dictate how much HP and MP you have, it also determines what skills you can use. It's always worked like that. Lower level, fewer skills. Not even XI let you use higher level skills when synced to a lower level. I agree that the cross-class slot system works a little weird, but it's worked like that since 1.0. High priority skills go in the first slots, low in the last. "But they are all high priority!" The you need to pick the ones you really can't live without.

    On the flipside, though, this can make doing lower level content really frustrating. It does depend on the class a bit... CNJ gets a decent kit pretty early on so I don't mind it as much, but on PLD I never want to do anything that sync's to under level 40.

    I mean it's a good point, to even have scaled down abilities would make level sync'd characters too powerful, but it's easy to understand why a lot of people hate it. With an ilvl sync at least you keep your normal rotation, full kit, etc etc.
