Power-leveling is absolutely BROKEN

[AreeyaJaidee]

So whats the point in making low level gear, low level dungeons, low level materia, and anything in between 0-35 if you can power level through it all?

I my opinion, it's a waste of development time if it can all be skipped. Progression, as stated by many others is what makes an MMO an MMO. I can understand that there are multiple classes to level up, but you shouldn't be able to rank up this fast. It's just not right.

People can disagree to disagree as they are doing in all these threads, but you can't deny that it's too fast in most cases. You can say that you don't have to power level, but how can you essentially group level if everyone is power leveling? Soon, most people will be r50, with very small amounts of lower ranked people. Don't make any more mid level content if you can rank up this fast. Like I said..

How about reading the entire thread and not reiterating already asked/answered questions. Lets further this topic instead of spinning wheels

Once again speculation. You have no way of predetermining these outcomes with anything remotely resembling accuracy.

You say "crafters and battle classes being imbalanced" will destroy the game?

Do you understand the inummerable calculations required to predict such an outcome?

You seem self assured, so please throw some math into this.

Im honestly intrigued, tell me numerically how this imbalance can occur, which items will be involved, which classes and at what lvl and how this all calculates in correlation to each servers individual population trends and buy/selling indexes.

Please share with everyone.

It's a f**king logical conclusion. Imbalance breeds imbalance. My lord.

U mad bro?

Logical isnt factual.

Point is none of this can be proved to be gamebreaking. You can't.

All that can be made are assumptions.

So you are doing assumptions, it's only your opinion. What's different? I have played MMORPGs all my life and I'm in FFXIV since Open Beta. Do you think I don't know what I'm talking about? I'm not a cryer, I'm a player that is worried about a bad situation for the game.

Actually, I don't have time to read the whole thread, so quit being a complete D*CK ok?

And if everyone speeds to Cap with powerleveling, most people will only come back for the content updates. As what happened with the last 2 updates. People came and did all the stuff for 1.18. Yeah it brought a lot of people, but most didn't stay for long. I somewhat feel the same will happen with powerleveling. I just have a feeling that it's gonna turn out negatively.

So your argument is that even though a logical conclusion can be reached, because it cannot be 100% guaranteed to be factual, we should just wait and see, and if what was the logical conclusion comes to pass, the game is f**ked? Yeah, that's brilliant. Let's go with that genius plan.

Whats funny is: the only point im arguing is that you have no concrete argument and all 3 of you are upset LMAO.

So its okay to agree with someone, but we have to get flustered when someone asks us for more validity?

For shame

I never stated im correct I only asked you to validate your accudsations with something other than "this is bad mmmkay?"

LOL

You shouldn't be able to power level at all. idk why there are not penalties for players not close in level leveling each other. Those 35 levels you just blew by were suppose to have key points where you actually learned how you class worked and strategy on how to work by yourself and with a group of the same level. what was the dunes in xi but the point it time where people figured out how to actually use their job?

Yes, 35 levels of mindless grinding breeds true skill.

No my point is: no matter how much you and your fanboys "like/star" each others comments Yoshi has already stated why he allowed PLing and after the fact adjusted the game to its current state.

That's why they added so much mid level content and gear so you can just skip it all? Yeah, makes a lot of sense.

And don't talk about "like/stars" because the witty comments that you try to make everyone look stupid is your attempt at getting them too. So just stop
