New Level Sync Feature to Change the Way You Party! (08/25/2008)

Because S-E has a well-known history of quickly and efficiently coming up with ideas and implementing them?
 
I really like this, gives the chance to play with friends and family that dont have high lvl jobs and I am not forced to lvl something I dont want just to play with em

How does it make them desperate?

Would it be better if they didn't implement it in order to not "look desperate"?
 
guess people got more stuff to put in /seacom other than 2 BRDs only party.....
"Lvl Sync Party, No Thanks." XD

It would've been better if they implemented it as the influx of new players started to slow down, rather than when it's almost stopped.
 
Dude, I'd be down for a level synch party in, like, cnest or something.
Fuck the dunes and qufim. 4friendsonry.
 
You know I think a job that will benefit from this might just be blm since blm's are still pretty common till ~the 40's
 
I predict an update server crash for at least few hours quickly followed by a DDoS attack by some obscure country just to spice it up!

But seriously it's way more convenient for the gears and stuff. Especially crappy capped zone (promy, riverne, etc). I see how can CoP particularly can get a little easier for people needing it AND for people willing to help. Most of the time why my friends wouldn't help me was because 1) they did not have the required level gears 2) wasn't ready to spend 100-200k for 1 fight (and I understand them too) 3) having the hassle of getting gears in storage (16 slots gogo...).

And no I'm not going to Valkurm Dunes on PLD or BRD for the fun of being examined every 2 secs... I left my sanity in that place! Just to think I need to get 5 more jobs through VD... brb hanging myself to the ceiling.

Anyway it was about time they find that idea. Getting PTs between 40-50 wasn't necessarily an easy task nowadays, especially when you have events scheduled all over the week.

Good job on this one Square, you deserve that cookie!
 
Well, if anything brd sucks before 25 for the most part
 
Hey Aud, i think i might want to come back now.

I wonder how well a relic lance will level sync down to super low level.
 
Oh boy, time to refresh my /anon skills for BRD.

We can't know until AUD FINISHES HIS GUNGIR!

But I would imagine that all the relics are the best possible items you can get at any lvl.

I forsee this update is going to have the potential to be a horrible back-fire. Can you imagine how crowded Valkrum Dunes will be when this comes out? There will be more players than monsters. And until the excitement of it dies down, most regular exp camps are going to suddenly be overcrowded (more so than ever). Not to mention the negative effects its going to have on the economy. Yah it's going to be nice to do enms/bcnms, etc now since you dont have to get seperate gears for them, but now everyone else has that same innitial advantage and the values of those gears along with crafted gear will go down (I imagine fairly drasticly).

Maybe I'm over reacting, as it's obvious that merit areas will always be the best place for lvl 75s to merit. I don't know how much it's going to help the casual player, though. If anything, I think they will be picked over 9 x out of 10 for someone 'more experienced'. I'm also pretty pesimisitic<sp? on how useful this will be in general. Hopefully though the things I am sceptical of will work out in the wash and this will be as awesome as it leads us to believe-- but again, this is SE..... I'm not getting my hopes up.

Just like the good ol' days when the game was still 100%.

There are a lot more places to exp in then the dunes and with all these new parties forming people will seek out new camps like camps in WoTG so that shouldn't really be an issue.

Crafting has pretty much been dead for awhile and I doubt this will kill it even more because its not like highly prized endgame synths will receive and impact from this.

This helps the casual player because they can exp with their friends no matter what, even if their friends do pass them in levels it won't have an impact because they can just sync to his level. This doesn't just mean that people will always be bothering 75s to exp they can start grabbing people who are like 10 levels lower and 10 levels higher and they can all come together to form one party because we all have had the feeling where we had to disband a party because there wasn't a tank at that level or there wasn't a healer. I'm really just hoping this turns out as well as I hope it does but I have been known to be wrong before...
