Rumor is that its being raised to 80, but i can't find any proof of this. Anyone know?
 
This rumor has been around for about 2 years.
There is NO proof.
 
Raising the level cap will make too much content stupidly easy, nowhere to realisticly XP, and if areas for that were intoduced they would be flooded, also raising it to 80 would make alot of jobs useless. Not to mention totaly messing up the Merit system.

The only way you will improve your character post75 is by meriting, and SE have said in interviews that they will NOT raise the level cap, but they WILL release new types of merit abilities and spells and stuff for you to merit into, I doubt there will be a level cap rise, but I do think there will be some interesting Merit stuff in the near future.
 
I don't know, they good theoreticaly raise the cap in the future. I don't thiunk they'd do it anytime soon, maybe if the games population starts to drop.

SE could create new areas and cap all the existing no cap fights to 75.

It would take an expansion to do all this though, the patch would be huge.

Actually, they really couldn't do anything like that. Most of the big fights are out in the open, from popped NM's or HNM's, and they can't just force people to a certain level when they engage some specific monster. Well, they could, but something like that would be difficult to implement correctly and easy to exploit. Unless they made all of those fights related to a quest(eco-warrior) or inside a bcnm, which they're not going to do, it'd be really difficult for them to impose any kind of level cap

SE has repeatidly said they're not raising the level cap, because as said before it'd make the current endgame noticably easier. In fact, they're encouraging people to hit the max level, as shown by the exp change and the introduction of the exp rings.
 
Please put a "?" not a "!" when you are asking. That is all :|
 
They do that, I quit. Simple enough, I'm not putting 5 more levels into somthing I thought I finished 3 months ago.
 
Don't listion to anyone who says level cap will go to 80. Only beleave it if SE post on offical web site. (and I doubt that will happen in a long long time)
 
cap won't go up. They can only give away so many job abilities.. making it 80 would be ridiculous...
also.. stop the "if they do tis I'll quit" they don't care..
look at the bst nerf
but I understand, I'd be pissed too... same with if they added Manthra.. I'd quit.. they'd not care though so.. it means nothing.
 
:O they need to raise the cap so i can solo Jorg!!
 
manthra lol, thats funny. But didn't people say the exact same stuff when the level cap was 65?

I don't think the cap was ever 65. I believe it was 50 and when Zilart came out they raised it to 75.

I heard the cap was 50 when it first came out. Then 70 a while after, finally 75 when Zilart came out.
 
Merit point system = death to consideration of raising the lvl cap.

Just like personal choco-huts, choco-armor, and bahamut as a summon circa CoP this is BS.
