Thread: Let Me Level up in 5.0

Starting at 1 will do no good in a game that already has a quick-level system (PotD/HoH). You're still going to get the majority of folks spamming it for quick levels, and although it's good for learning what your skills do, it's not going to help learn how to play them or with rotations in a "traditional setting, where roles are required". Sure, you can say you'll do it the "right way" by going through dungeons, but nothing's stopping you from doing that currently. Go run all of the dungeons in sequence. Spam them if you like. You'd be doing that exact thing if you started from 1; the only difference is that now you'll be synced, but that doesn't change anything.

Unless there was some other meaningful way to level classes, this really does no good and just inflicts nonsense on people who already have an idea of what they're doing and don't want to be relegated to level 1 to grind the same stuff, over and over again. They're not going to give us another MSQ to cut our teeth on. Most games don't have this problem because you can only play one class, and I'd rather see FFXIV keep the multi-job system & just let us level them in the way we want instead of scrap it so that we're just using MSQ for our single class.
