<DEV> request to remove dLVL

[Frein]

So, while I agree that dlvl might be annoying, there would still be something needed to account for the actual progression experience and levels. You could push it into a modifier for our skills themselves, and then force only attributes to make a difference. But in there is no net change.

This is the problem:


Graph taken from Kaeko's blog. I assume he's not going to wish me dead for posting it here.

Against a L58 enemy the def stat does almost nothing until you get way past 1000 defense, a number nobody can reach even temporarily as far as I know. This is why you can tank Ifrit with WHM just fine if your HP pool is sufficient. The paper thin defense of WHM just doesn't matter nearly as much as you'd imagine.

Also, the block, evade and parry stats are practically meaningless against Ifrit as the proc rates are probably <1% regardless of what you're wearing.
