Petition To Add Behest Rank Restrictions

[Arcell]

I think -10 from the rank of the camp is a bit extreme honestly. Personally +/-5 is pretty optimal from what I've seen.

So then the rank requirement for Bloodshore would be 15-25. You can still get decent SP up to 25 but no one in the group should be lower than 15 anyway simply because it's an R20 camp. Hell you can't even get leves there until you've got something to 13.

Considering leves at bloodshore open up at 13, the minimum should be 13 at the highest for that behest. Would not make sense to allow players to do that areas quests/leves and not allow them to do that areas behests. IMO

agreed. to me it should be the range of the camp +5 or -5. i know that is a big range overall, but as you are close to the area you will be there with groups and still be in range of groups in the area with your friends. i would not want to see them get left out, but as long as they are close i don't have problems with. what i don't like seeing is a r40 or a r5 in a r20 behest as those hurt the entire group not just themselves.

completly agree, please add behest rank restrictions!!

Also to those asking for a level sync

BAD idea

i can already see level 1s in a level 40 behest cuz they sync to 40 to do it....even if they cant do a damn thing in their weathered gear

They way level sync worked in FFXI was you could only sync down not up. So that eliminates that problem.

I would still be in favour of rank restrictions on top of level sync as well for Behest and they should be based on the ranks you unlock leves for that camp, as follows:

Rank 10 Camps you unlock at R3 so Behest would be 3-13

Rank 13 unlocks R20 leves so it would be R13-23.

Rank 23 unlocks R30 leves so it would be R23-33.

Rank 33 unlocks R40 leves so it would be R33-43.

At Rank 43 we should unlock Rank 50 leves and camps however they are not currently in the game so we have to do the same leves from R33-50.

ah ok, thats not as bad then, although then you got a bunch of gimped gear for being too low for it lol

That is true also but with how gear can be equip on any class at any rank most people just run around in R50 gear anyway, this is something I hope they address with the rank restricted gear coming.

It is nice being able to wear anything but I kinda miss looking forward to get to that rank to equip that piece of gear or get that weapon, being able to equip it anytime kinda ruins that for me. Though I know a lot of people love the system so guess I am in the minority on that ^^

In regards to level sync and gear in FFXI you could still wear you gear that was for your proper level before the sync and then it just scaled it down to the equivalent gear you synced to.

So if I was level 75 with level 75 gear and synced down to level 50 then my gear would sync down to level 50ish gear and gimp it a bit. So it wasn't as good as wearing proper level 50 gear but it would do the job

people havent been doing this in a long long time

sure a few people still do, but they are a very small minority now


also i remember in 11, exp was cut in half if you were level syncd along with everything, so people may not like that since itl gimp their sp even more

I'm not completely against it Alexia, but that has a BIG disadvantage. It wasn't much of an issue in FFXI because it was quite an old game already when they implemented it, but it will be an issue in a younger game.

That way you make inviting newerplayers and players you don't know in a group even less desirable. If every class can be used at every level, people would rather group with their higher level friends (more experience, more reliable), than actually going out of their little circle to look for classes/level combinations that they need to fill the party.
