Power-leveling is absolutely BROKEN

[Mindx3]

Character progression is a core mechanic in every MMORPG. Without it the rest of the game would be meaningless. Without character progression you may as well be playinga lobby game.

You are right character progression is the core mechanic of the game...LEVELING IS NOT. You still progress after leveling!

Think of it this way in terms of progression, idk if anyone has beaten Ifrit yet, but im going to assume that he is impossible as of right now without a progression of your character. As it is, crafted weapons and armor maybe the best items available with materia in it, and untill your character progresses in this area you will not be able to progress in the game itself. Getting classes leveled up at a decent rate can only help this cause.

As i know that once i get the 2 classes i want to 45+ im going to go crazy in the crafting department. The sooner i can get past leveling my 2 DoM the sooner i can enjoy the game.
