Classes are dreadfully boring to play at lv 50 and below. Something needs to be done.

Like someone previously said, the next expansion might see some more skill trimming, likely for low-level abilities to accommodate the new ones.

The low level experience is going to get much worse for both new players and people tolerating the level sync. Telling people to just avoid doing roulettes that'll sync you to a lower level is not a solution.

I think the point is if there are people that don't enjoy that content they should skip it. There is enough content that generates currency in this game so you can pick and choose what you enjoy.

I'd argue they're dreadfully boring at level 80 too, they've really dumbed things down a lot this expansion.

Same thread different thread name, but point still stands that level progression sucks pre-50 and post-50...

that only applies if youre level cap. you can be in the lv 70s and leveling roulette will still occasionally put you in pre-50 content, and most of the time it will put you in a dungeon with a level lower than yours. that means people will spend time in level synced duties all the way until lv 80.

"just dont do roulettes" isn't sound advice nor is it an argument in favor of keeping the awful skill distribution

If you don't enjoy being synced down don't do those roulettes. There are other options. How is this hard to grasp?

XP in this game is handed out quite readily in every activity in this game. If you don't like something then just don't do it. Complaining incessantly is not the way to get anything done. Do you honestly expect SE to change how syncing works as it has the last 8 years because of a few people complaining on the forums?

considering the sad state of the jobs right now, I'd say SE have a proven track record of changing how something works because of a complaining minority.

by these logic we should still have 35 different glamour prisms because why improve anything in this game.

they can easily redistribute when jobs get certain skills to make synced content feel better without changing how level sync works. in fact they already did that with tanks and tank stance, so i DO expect SE to change how things are considering they've spent this entire expansion making QoL fixes and overhauling outdated or unintuitive systems. skill progression and level sync shouldn't be ignored if combat is where most people spend their time
