Those of you in Vana’diel who want to play with friends of varying levels whilst retaining the challenge of the game will be glad to know that Final Fantasy XI (PC, Xbox 360, PS2 ) will be getting a Level Sync system.
According to the Final Fantasy website, this Level Sync system essentially allows higher-leveled players to “power down” and play with lower-leveled characters, gaining experience equal to their level’s limit all the while.
In addition, the Level Sync feature also adds the dynamic of character items getting scaled down to fit the general level they’re playing at.
The news on the official site mentions that this new feature is meant to address
the issues that have resulted from a steady stream of new, low-level players joining an existing game world populated by scores of high-level veterans, and is part of the ongoing effort to clean up the FFXI community and remove players in violation of the users’ agreement.
More information on the Level Sync system can be found in the source article. Needless to say, it looks to be a worthwhile addition to the game that adds more fun to the whole MMORPG experience.
