If old content is dead , then whats the issue with a jump potion?

[Antonio_Xul]

I think the only good use for jump potions is for Alts. I currently have none, because I don't want to go through the whole story again, but if we had jump potions, I would use it for them on jobs I already know. I would still take the long route for new jobs, though.

People arguing: why not?
I'm asking, Why yes? What the benefit? insta-cap? and? leveling in this game is a JOKE...New members joining our FC in at max 1 month are already 60 with msq unlocked.
The only thing that keep u behind are the sea of msq and quest in general... do u wanna skip that? then why r u playing? there is a reason to burn the game, wow u reach the end, and? get bored cuz u haven't nothing to do..

People have to stop complain that there is nothing to do AND saying too much time to reach that point.. is... stupid. PLAY and GET FUN.

PLAY and GET FUN.

That's the idea - and questing is not fun for everyone.

Just like not everyone likes chocobo breeding. Not everyone likes collecting triple triad cards, or even play it. Not everyone likes crafting or gathering, big fishing in particular. Not everyone likes checking the weather all the time to complete the sightseeing log. Not everyone likes PvP. Not everyone likes doing hunts. Not everyone likes raiding. Not everyone enjoys treasure hunting.

See where I'm getting here? There is plenty of content even if the MSQ did not exist at all. And everyone likes different things. So in order to "Get fun" as you say it, some people have to spend hours upon hours doing things they don't enjoy at all - quests. That's exactly the issue why people defend the potion, because those quests are in the way of "play and get fun".

cut

Yes, but everyone had to exp and skip/watch cutscene and mainstory, we didn't cry cuz we were lv1... and 1 month (with more time u can do it in 2 week) isn't so much of an efford.. I can understand when there will be much more MSQ and much more level, like not stormblood but next expansion, but now.. people can try to play a bit more and learn that maybe they can appreciate the game even with quest

Yet another reminder that adding a level boost doesn't mean everyone will use it, level boosting is quite expensive ($60 in WoW), most people will just level up as normal, there won't be a massive influx of bad players in leveling dungeons, at least no more than the ones coming from PotD.

And yet another reminder that it doesn't take you to level cap.

If people are so concerned about having "bads" in DF they should be asking SE for a proper player feedback like a personal parser and to prioritize the "hall of the intermediate", and make it mandatory along with Stone, Sky, Sea.

I don't get the harm myself, sure some new players will join and be max level of 60 with 1 class or so I recall it being said, so if they wish to play the rest they gotta start at level 1 still. If they wish to play to the best they will get there in time. However even if people choose not to level using those potions they will still get help from us in the form of roulettes for leveling and MSQ and even if not I am sure almost every server has 1 FC willing to help new players either by doing the dungeons sync'd or rushing them through. If they wanna spend money to skip the hassle I say let em. Honestly to me the only reason I see them being so much more enticing is due to new classes being locked behind the story which even rushing and skipping seems to take quite some time.

I can't wait to find out the new guy who keeps wiping us in our static has only been playing six hours

Rev up those four and eight statics for all other content, because the 24mans will be the new seventh layer of Heck

Old content is not dead. Every time I run leveling roulette it's 70% of the time not first time players. Just people leveling an off job.

Jump potion is most likely going to happen. It won't bother me. But the on duty will get more toxic and that is what people are afraid of

Tell that to the que of any binding coil, titan extreme, ifrit extreme, and thormarch extreme , when I mean dead I mean doing it the old fashion way for the experience, unsync is pretty much all most people wana do

The issue with the level jump potion with me, is the fact that we lose players for that content. If I want to level instead of spending my money on jump potions, I will have a greater time gap for dungeons and trails that I must complete. I do not want it where jump potions are now the thing that you have to buy or else you will be facing a wall of content you cannot over come due to a lack of players. Yes, you can get friends and FC members to help you, but that does not happen in a lot of cases. Leveling should also be your first experience on how much you will like the game from here on out.

For a person rolling an alt job, it may also put you at a disadvantage with lack of players who may not be interested or too lazy to level. This will cause a low turnout of players for fates, dungeons, and quests that could help your progression.
