request for Exp reduce

[Mortikhan]

Wow, so many myths of PL. So many one sided views on an issue that isn't really an issue because people who PL don't affect people who don't PL at all, other than inside their little intolerant minds.


I am with you on point 3, but they would need to make said quests awesome both in gameplay and story instead of crap like that GC chocobo quest. Yes, that means the quests themselves need to be real content instead of retarded boring legwork.

1) I have to assume by your first comment that you have never had a PL group in any game dominate or steal a spawning area from you and a party you were in or that you have never been MPKed by a PL or a Beastmaster in FFXI. I also have to assume that you are concluding that a level 10 Marauder is the same and capable of the same as a level 50 Marauder. PLs and people being PLed always affect others. They dominate camps used by people who party at those locations. They create a group of people who start doing end game material who have to be trained by others to perform the tasks required to complete said content because they are not really all that sure as to what they should be doing to start with. They also affect the economy by bypassing the normal buying and selling of lower end equipment, thus the reason why most Wards only have high end equipment. Not to mention they are normally not ready to fully equip that PLed class because they are too busy going from 10-50 in a few days and have no other means of generating gil. The list goes on and on...I will not bore you more since you don't agree.

Ok to poke holes in this epic story of one mans journey

1 Yeah i kinda agree here

2) I absolutely lawl meeting people really , No one other then JP use the weird ass party search system , now any time and every post i have seen only Linkshells make parties to grind out levels to make their stronger Now I have all ready meet my Linkshell members I dont think every party we make we meet again . So this is what i know meeting people i call shenanigans

3) your High

1) I was not seeking your approval but hey thanks for the thumbs up .

2) Two things. If you lawl at meeting people why are you recruiting for an LS? If you lawl at meeting people then why are you playing an MMO?

3) No I am not but I would prefer to be high than drunk like you for 3 reasons. a) Fewer dents in my car b) No headache c) I don't wake up in a pool of my own vomit or piss.

There are far better ways to simulate PLing that are fun for everyone involved and will teach people to play the game and take a little pride in what they are playing regardless of what class they are playing at the time. I would much rather see a level synching system than have a PL experience. At least people actually have to participate in order to level then.

No, I agree that the ability to reach 50 quick does affect the world.

Just it simply does, it's not positive or negative.

PL groups steal camps? PFFT Give me a break! They are only as likely to do it as non PL groups. Douches will be douches, PL or not.

How about this? PL groups actually help you with leveling because they get much more exp than a regular group so they move out from camp quicker.

Oh it can be seen either way and I am all for it but as it is now...nah. Like I said earlier I would rather see a level synching system where all players are involved and helping rather than a stand around and collect XP party.

I don't think people PL so they can get exp for doing nothing, but so they level up much faster and have to spend less time grinding.

PL is the closest to a golden mean between people who like the grind and those who hate it.

It's not perfect, IMO perfect would be having separate servers for people who don't enjoy timesinks and those who do. Since we don't have that, PL is good enough if only you are willing to tolerate people with different goals and play styles.
