[dev1026] Please reconsider level sync "Then allowing power leveling"

[Zenaku]

Pwr lvling only really works until rank 24 honestly, after that it all falls apart. And although that is about 50% in numbers to 50 it is only like 8-12% of the total SP.

The whole pwrlvling only works because of the massive SP bonus pre 25, after that your SP will actually be higher sp/hr in a normal party then a pwrlvl.

Sp has a cap )10 levels) so a rank 25 getting sp from a rank 50 is going to be like 200-350sp/kill depending on the mob. And higher level mobs that give decent sp will not work in pwrlvl setting because there are simply not enough things to kill. Example Take a rank 30 person to Down's raptors and get ~25k/hr, take a rank 30 to a proper camp get ~25k/hr. This method is just not effective you are sacrificing a ton of time at no gain.

People did it in XI and nothing bad happened... and they did it in well every other mmo to a point as well. It is because 1 reason. At a point in all mmo pwrlvling is just 100% ineffective.

I will say I have pwrlvled probably over 80 people in my ls to around 18-20 and for 1 reason, so they can participate in our events. Rank 1-20 is solo and honestly most people I meet in-game do not want to do that. SO get them to 25 and get them doing leves, dungeons, Nms, grind partys in a group... and they enjoy the game alot more. Many people said they where at the verge of quitting Pre-25 before getting in my group... now they have multiple 50s.

While Pwrlvling is negative in some ways (gets ppl higher up with no knowledge of the game) in this case it gets them to a point they can truly play the game they way they want to, with others.

explain this too me what i read was

I could be level 25 and get someone level 50 which would be in my party. I would go kill mobs that are for my level range which give me good amount of exp. So let's say i attack 10 mobs around my level and the person who level 50 "Outside party" Attack each mob and kill them. Wont i get all the great EXP from all 10 mobs? even if the exp go downhill from 21+?

Fast kills not working everywhere. The slow respawn rate hit you faster then.

Hmm that very true i overlook the high re-spawn even if you kill everything in the area you in you have to wait. So at the end you still killing the same amount of mob but it be quicker.


So let's say your in a camp with 20 mob's and it take's you approximately 30min's to kill all of them, and it take's 15min's for re-spawn the first few mobs that you killed have already re-spawned by then. If you have a p-lvl it take's you 1min to kill all 20 mob's leaving you 15min's waiting for the mob's to re-spawn. In other word's plvl's would only be beneficial on camp's in which the mob's have a low respawn time.

I guess i overlook the re-spawn issue with FFXIV. But people would find a way to level up quicker with the system matter what.

PG13 version:

Level sync
Friend1: All I have to eat is 50 pieces of smelly old moldy rotten cheese. ^_^
Friend2: I'll eat half so we only eat 25 pieces of smelly old moldy rotten cheese each. <3

The new way
Friend1: All I have to eat is 50 pieces of smelly old moldy rotten cheese. ^_^
Friend2: Flush down the toilet, I'll order a pizza. <3

why do we need level sync in a new game and a game where you can SP/xp solo ??

Because not everyone in the world like to solo? once again the point of the forums is to give idea not to fight with each other i would like to party with friend but most of them are higher then me so why should they go and level up a new class when they don't want too? Level sync fix this issue and many other it not only to fix the issue of finding people to party with.

How does this make me not wanting to solo lazy? does not even make sense to you at all? I want to party but i don't want to make my friends just level up a new class just to party with me.

Ontopic: You know what forget about it you people are just a waste of time no one here can even come and talk about something and come up with idea and talk like real grown up people.

Watch i see it when the patch goes live people be complaining about the system and making 10+ topic about some of the issue i talked about. Then yoshi-p would take his time and fix the issue when he could be doing something else. Like what happen to about every patch. The forums are made to come up with idea and talk about it to fix issue before it come up even if yoshi-p made his mind about the system does not mean it's not late to fix / change a few thing too it.

But i guess you people can't just jump on the forums talk about issue come up with idea. All you can do is come dislike ideas come up with your own idea then get mind when people do the same thing you doing on this same topic Crying "troll,whiteknight,go back to ffxi or anything else you can come up. So you know what forget about the topic i guess there no hope too this goes P2P and people we can get some good topic and talk about it without this happening.

As i said in the other topic, if people can PL, it'll do, but don't mean you require to PL.
Level synch it's a great feature in a world where you can level only in party, but since in this world you can level solo too, allowing PL isn't a game breaker. If you find a friend willing to help, ok Pl, otherwise don't. The end.
We all remember FFXI don't? And people PL. A more restrictive claiming don't stop people PLing, let's face it

FFXI pl was a healer just healing the party this is having a PL kill the mob for you.

Btw forget about my last post it seem SE is also going to lower the re-pop of mobs in patch 1.19 which mean Powerleveling would be even better so there no down time and people can spam mobs over and over and get max level even short amount of time with the system with have now.

and ? in the end, the party healed could'nt die, he just need to throw his ws in place to kill. The methos is different, but the end it's the same
