I loved the idea behind level sync and I think it would be very helpful in this game as well. I don't think level sync ruined FFXI at all - it certainly made me return to the game for a long time after a lot of long breaks. It allowed me to stop having to save a job to level with my friends in a static group and allowed me to level whenever I wanted to, with whomever I wanted to, without worrying about difference in our levels.

We already have gear that can be worn at any level, so it would seem natural to me to allow us to sync down in rank here too. So many times someone in my ls will ask for 1-2 more people for a party and no one has any classes left in the correct range. Levels sync solves this.

I am tired of hearing how we can't have certain very fun features because they either might be abused by RMT or by a smaller group of players.
