Petition To Add Behest Rank Restrictions

[Nakiamiie]

A very low minimum rank could be ok for behest, but no upper limit, please.
But, I still prefer no limitations at all. Low ranked characters are already penalized for joining high ranked people (in party or behest), so, low ranked people that still join the behest have other motivations to do so. Let's not remove that joy for these persons.

Freedom of choice and actions, not restrictions to force people to conform.

There needs to be a cap on how high a character can be to join a behest at a certain camp. As I said earlier, r40+ at non-40 camps will cause a ton of problems for the people that are the correct rank for that camp.

Well, I feel a very strong desire for rank caps in guildleves, Behests and storyline missions for quite some time, but stayed silent until now because I am not looking forward to being flamed to hell ... but now I should stop being a coward :-)

changes to Behest are absolutely necessary. Rank caps or attendance limitations may be easier to realize than appropriate automatic difficulty adjustments (which would mean that mobs should increase in rank, not in numbers. with exp/sp being unchanged).

So here comes a passionate [X] yes from my side for the introduction of rank caps!

There is more than enough nodes and camps to spread out the levels! This will allow nodes to have more visits often than just for leves.

[Nephera]

Could we get a camp rank range listing somewhere.

[Nergal]

I'm up for some rank restrictions too, and also agree with the last mob spawn, we need something bigger, stronger, something with more strategy envolved that just more of the same zerg fest.
I also have a suggestion for when you talk with the battle warden accepting your behest entry you should automatically be part of a behest party, i had runs with 2 pt's going on cause people just would not accept the invites.

They should create a level sync type system without level sync lol, basically it just tells you when you are about to break the party buff for the 5 rank difference in people. Everyone in the party would get an indicator with the name of the person about to break buff. For example: I'm in a behest and my name is Zavier Mhigo and I'm a 39 thm at a rank 35-40 camp, just an example. I try to switch to myt 14 conj and bam everyone gets a message like "Zavier Mhigo is going to break party buff" and if you didn't mean to do it, you'd be taken back, and if you're party doesn't want that they will boot you/ yell. I'm thinking the buff can only be obtained from the initial party at the start of the behest and dropping the buff would lose it forever, which would create incentive for people to not eff with other peoples behest and go to a level appropriate one and not leech, this isn't abyssea lol.

Why not just make it so that if someone switches to a job outside of the specified range, they receive no sp/reward? Does there really need to be an elaborate lock-out system?

To clarify, if the behest is r10-20 range and you switch to from a r12 job to r11 it's still fine and you receive sp when mobs are killed. But if you switch from r12 to r9 or r21, the mobs killed during the time you were on those jobs will net you no sp and you wouldn't receive the reward at the end.

I agree with this. It is simple and to the point. It could use the same basic mechanism that the Guild Mark levequests do when they determine that a player earns no Guild Marks because they were not the correct class during the quest.

[Mitsuhide]

There really should be a system for that.
Maybe the SP should favor those who joins within an Otimal Rank, so that not everyone is dumped down because of one Low Rank.
