Level Syncing isn't the best solution

[Deceptus]

While I have, admittedly, been hesitant in this past. I have to agree. There are jobs I almost refuse to play in low level content because they're simply awful. Astro's lack of an AoE until 52 makes ARR content a needless chore, especially now that they've gone back and nerfed everything. Warrior is downright dreadful below 60. And even then, not much better until you have Inner Release. Monk and Ninja feel naked without Form Shift and Armor Crush. And Machinist... only hell is Machinist bad below max level.

The current synced system simply makes non-70 content much less engaging. Granted, I'm more annoyed at how easy it all becomes due to how high our synced level is stat wise. But that's another discussion.

DRK's are really bad about this as well.

Let me put it this way: It sucks, and I mean outright sucks to level a tank when you're behind. The reason is because the DPS and sometimes even the healer have capped stats and you do not. This makes it more difficult for the leveling tank to maintain aggro despite using their enmity tools and mitigative CDs. Now you got SMNs and BLM using Death Flares and Fire IVs on top of it... in Dzamael Darkhold??

As long as you keep your gear up to date, and there's no reason not to with gear vendors in cities, aggro "shouldn't" be an issue. Sometimes it might, but overall you should be fine.

And if the DPS did have all of their abilities, so the mobs die a ton faster and less overall damage goes out? Regarding low level content, there's been times where I as the SCH has had more hp than the tank due to them being new. I simply told them to do the best they could but dont' worry if someone rips aggro.

And you know what? WE DID FINE. In every case this has happened. Completed the content with zero issues. At some point, you have to stop coddling EVERYONE.

Even if the DPS rips aggro, perhaps they'll learn to use their aggro reducing tools which people at 70 don't even use because tanking is so effective leveling up.
