Well, truth is I got invited to this LS, but the response I've gotten from them wasn't very helpful, it was more along the lines of busy doing thier own thing and telling me to just lfp or shout for parties. Not what I like to hear, but it's the main reason I dislike LSs they put on an aire like they're a cool group of helpful players but then when it comes time to help the "noobs" out they give the cold shoulder in favor of thier endgame/high end activities. :/

It's a sad state of affairs for low level people atm. The only way any of those "high level" people can help is by power leveling you.
The best they can do w/o playing the game for you is give you advice until you either get close enough in level to start grouping with those higher level people or someone has a similar level job (within 10 levels of you)

Or if SE was to do something like oh..... i dunno... ADD LEVEL SYNC?

where did that post go? maybe it's time to resurrect that one.

Please, no. Not that thread. ; ;

FFXIV is my second MMO, how Level Sync work?

Basically, you'd select one party member, and that would be the "maximum level" for your party. Anyone below that level was unaffected, but anyone higher than that player would become that player's level. Skills and base stats were lowered to match what they would be at that level, and gear was scaled "appropriately" (in quotes because higher-level gear that was scaled down was often useless, just like wearing Optimal Level:49 gear would be on a lower job in XIV). Go find Chief's thread if you want to see everyone's appraisal of the pros/cons, though. I don't want to hijack your thread here.

...It's a good system on paper, but in my experience abuse was just as common as use; also, XIV has other options for leveling besides standard parties--although they're slower, that does something to alleviate the need for Level Sync.

...crap, I said I wouldn't say anything.
