High level quests showing up as level 70 quests

[hynaku]

Is it bugged the quests. save all the quests level 72+ to use to level another job. But they all show up now as level 70 quest with way less exp. but with same hardness. Did level 70 quest and my level 74 had to fight group of level 80 monsters. Is this a bug after you finish the main story to Shadowbringers.

The ShB sidequests sync to your current level. They all say Lv70 simply because that's the minimum level you're allowed to do them.

Side story quests added in patch 5.0 will now employ an automatic level adjust system known as Quest Sync.

Quests using this system will have their difficulty and EXP rewards adjusted to match your current level.

I'm not 100% certain how the system works exactly, but I'm pretty sure doing something on a lv74 should've spawned lv74 monsters, so that's a strange anecdote you have there. Without more detail of what quest you were doing, it's hard to say if it's bugged or not. I haven't encountered any problems like that so far, but I've only cleared two zones of their sidequests.

With that said, you are allowed to do the quests as one job, but turn them in on another job. So if you're stuck on that quest, just swap over to your lv80 job, kill the stuff, then turn it in on whatever other job.

They spawn mobs equal to your level and the xp rewards are scaled to your level as well. Quests that have you kill mobs that exist in the world don't scale the mob level, bit you can kill it on a higher level job and then turn it in on the lower level one. Or you can go for the challenge of killing it at a lower level

Here's a hint -- take the 'level 70' side quest on your level 80 main, complete the quest as a level 80 main, and turn it in as your alternate job. That way you can take out the mobs with an appropriately leveled job and still turn in as the lower level job.

As an aside, all side quests in this expansion are labeled as 'level 70' regardless of the area you get them in.
