I would like to see this come back as well, but it's different in XIV than it was in XI.

In XI, you could potentially have your character level to the cap in the first zone. While that was indeed possible, you then had to level your skills accordingly. Despite your actual level, your weapon skill levels would be incredibly low so you'd have to catch them up in some manner.

Again, I'd like to see it but if it were to be implemented in the same manner it'd be kind of game breaking. I'd like to see it because I have all my jobs < 20 so whenever I get novice players into the LS and they need someone to party with, there's nothing I can do. Despite the games infancy the starting areas are very much barren. It's even worse for the towns that aren't Ul'Dah. I could see such a lowly populated starting region being a bit of a deterrent to gamers "just trying it out."

Maybe include monetary rewards instead of SP?
