I have always disliked power leveling, to be honest I've only power leveled any char, and that was my white mage in FFXI till 15 or what ever it was, because at the time no one partied till then, and leveling was a snails pace, once i was able to party I stopped. To me power leveling in any game takes out alof of the joys of the games and stuff. And as other people pointed out soon we will end up with idiots that are level 40+ wanting to do raptor parties in starter gear because they can't afford anything.
