I'd have to agree with Cheif. My friends and I love a good challenge when leveling. Currently, the linking system creates a difficult scenario for those who desire to exp on higher level enemies (10+) in compairison to "blink-burning" of several lower level monsters (1-5+). I wouldn't mind a typical link system similar to other mmos (and FFXI) where, through skill and timing, a puller can control the number of links (at least for typical exp party content).
