Please Make Leve-Sync optional

[Yellow]

I would want to go in a dungeon (let's say Toto-rak) with a Lv50 class cause I might want to farm equipment for a lower level class I have. I don't see why I shouldn't be able to do so.

Why should I be able to go and one-shot a NM in the open world and get a lower level weapon for a class I wish to level, and not quickly run through a dungeon in order to do the same.

As I said forcing LV-Sync is OK in some situations (Ifrit-weak, maybe storyline quests) but not in repeatable content like dungeons...

...if they force lv-sync in dungeons, then they should force lv-sync also in the open field.... "wanna fight a Lv10 coblyn?. well, you will be scaled to a lv10 character".


On the other hand, if they let us choose to lv-sync or not, people like yourself (and myself also) with all classes at 50 will be free to go in a dungeon enjoying a challenging experience as a lv25 character or to just stay lv50 and speed through it for farming purposes.

And power levelling will still exist :[

I've helped MANY people with the toto-rak quest as L50 just so they can move on with the story and then go back with others at the same level to farm seals or gear. I would not have done that if I was scaled down to low level and it took much longer and potentially killed me. If anything, it is MORE important that level-sync is optional for quests that can stop your progression so new players aren't blocked from moving ahead when there is not a large constant inflow of new players.

ah come on you seriously farming equipment for your lv 25 character which is lv 35 in 1-5 days? ;XD besides farming low level mobs for which purpose ever.. is just lame ^

its way often more the case, that lowbe players are seeking players to complete the instanced dungeons (not getting rushed through it btw. because it makes no fun)

i think its a good decision by SE. because low level dungeons are almost dead. i ever say to my ls members (sorry i dont have a char in that range)

seriously is it just all about "moving ahead" or having fun? i disagree with you.

im not going into toto-rak because i dont have an appropriate character. i dont think that newbies want to get PL'd or rushing through content they have'nt experienced yet. or has someone rushed you through toto-rak? they just have to complete it once and not once per class.

and besides that you do not know if instanced dungeons will be part of story in FF14.. or if it will be just part of normal quests.

I leveled all classes to 50 using shopshae and toto-rak equipment mainly and NM weapons. I don't see why it should be lame. Consider I took all classes to 50 doing solo leves (a part from 1st class I maxed, which I did with exp parties); it is not so fast doing so, as it is doing exp parties.

....I really don't see why you are against having the OPTION of using Lv-Sync OR not.... not saying I am against it.

Ok I checked your pad. Unless you have another character or you pad is bugged, you have just 3 classes at 50; you should have plenty of chances to enjoy toto-rak anyway.

AND.... you never even tried a single DoH.... so you don't know that farming on lower level mobs can help you save gil when grinding.

its like giving the option to PL someone. and giving people options will lead them to do the easiest way in the end.. which will be "ah well i'll rush you through and shut up". like giving people the options to skip all story cutscenes, in the end they all skip those scenes.

and giving the option to PL newbies instead they level on their own .
no one PL'd me either when i was a newbie.

ouh thats the people i like the most ouuh "i checked your pad".... ^^

im saving those other classes for 2.0. because i dont want to make a twink. and on the other hand i want these 3 jobs to be my main jobs/classes. if i would have all leveled to 50 i would have also been ask for playing WAR or whatever, which i dont enjoy at all. thats the point.

not everybody has the aim of having all classes at 50. like in other MMorpgs not everyone wants to play every class, you know.

Then, maybe, they could force lv-sync if in your party there's someone who has not cleared the dungeon; that could be a solution to your issue.

Of course... it is nice to be free and choose what to play and what not, but you cannot say "besides farming low level mobs for which purpose ever.. is just lame ^", because farming on lower level enemies is not lame in many occasions.

So I was just pointing out that you didn't have the chance to experience the above mentioned occasions due to you not being interested in levelling a DoH. That's all; not saying you are a noob. I do not like judging people.

Well, I have no idea how they will choose to implement this, but I think it would be foolish for them to set it so that you sync as soon as you join a lower level character's party. Would make it very weird if you want to, say, craft while the party was forming up. "Oh, sorry, suddenly you're only a level 15 Armorsmith, so you can't make that level 35 recipe while you wait." I have to think it would be something that you voluntarily initiate.

Although, I can certainly see that it might automatically cap you when you walk into a dungeon. I'm not sure how I feel about that. Maybe they could have some that do and some that don't. That would be different than level-syncing though, from what I understand.
