My ls did mass powerleveling today... it is broken but honestly if you want to do endgame stuff fast it is going to be done.

Took 7 people 20-40 to raptors at Iron lake, I went on my 50 mar. gathered 6-8 raps aoed them all down in about 30secs. and got the whole group about 7k per raptor group.

The rest of my ls did the bstmen settlements in 2 partys (basically an alliance) to farm the chest and get materia, they took a rank 38 into it because the lowers group filled up... when that nights events where done that 38 was now 43. That is a ton of sp btw in about 3hrs.

SE needs to get alot more top end content in the game with this new system. SE more or less removed the leveling curve if you party now.

The issue is this patch did not help partying at all, it is just encouraging pwrlvl groups (they need to put the sp penatly back in for level range too large in the group and this patch would be ok even though sp would still be sky high). You will have some low levels and a high level killing everything, that is not how it should be. People can use well only if people choose to, well that is the optimal way now so it will be done. If someone does think that is right all I can say is wtf? Grouping should be a focus in the whole game, the whole leveling experience. This atm is just a quick rush to endgame where players will not even know what sentinel or Aegis Boon does.
