Also not fun, dungeons taking longer because people who are syncked down don't know how to play their jobs at their real levels, so they're only doing one fifth of the damage they should be doing because they're not doing their full real level rotations correctly.

There are too many sync issues to deal with when balancing people with no sync vs people with max level sync. It's far safer to just give everyone the same boring restricted button set at syncked levels.
Do people genuinely believe the fun comes from doing more or the same damage

If you gave me the option of PCT’s level 50 kit or its level 100 kit and doing the same damage regardless even if the level 100 kit introduces more fail states so I’d likely do about 10% less damage than an actual level 50 PCT id 100% take the level 100 kit because it’s more fun

There is no fun to me from doing more damage because I have an artificially restricted kit
