It really is a shame that at no point during the 1.20 patch notes do they address this seriously game breaking problem.

Yoshida said he wanted PLing to be in the game and he doesn't want to raise level cap because he doesn't want there to be a massive gap in player levels when PS3 releases. I don't see how having every single player have every class at level 50 when the PS3 players join at level 1 will attain this goal..
