I would say that you don't even need to do Min ILevel/No Echo. The former I believe does increase drop rates for certain things like mounts, but otherwise, you don't need it.
Standard Level Sync is more than perfect enough to experience the content essentially as it used to be. Fights may have been patched to be less BS over time, so it's not 100% as it was, but it's more fun now. Min+Echo is just an extra step to restore the original difficulty, and even though I don't use it, I appreciate it for the people who want the challenge.
It really is such a simplistic system too. Level Syncing is such a genius idea, it's no wonder even Guild Wars 2 copied it but for even open-world content! So even that stuff is fun to experience stuff that's been out for a decade but you don't instantly mop the floor with everything being 50 levels over it.
I simply cannot fucking believe that for WoW's nearly 2 decade history, they refuse to use Level Syncing for AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANYTHING except maybe Timewalking…which is only SEASONAL? Like why? That system is what keeps literally every dungeon, every trial, every EVERYTHING in FF14 populated with people to Duty Finder queue up with!
Fair point, but for me at least, FFXIV doesn't visually appeal to me at all. For instance, if i had to look at those potato looking lalafels or whatever they are called again i would gouge my eyes out. So for me, gameplay can be the best out there, but if the visuals are not appealing to me i won't touch it with a ten foot pole. And i tried the game, i really did, but just not for me. I just don't see myself staying in that world for long
You should check out eureka and bozja is fun as hell. I'm gonna do heaven on high soon I nearly killed p1s as a dancer around 25% health left. This game is awesome I can get sidetrack with everything
First thing first, Blizzard needs to stop thinking engagements is equal to fun. Forcing people to do things isn't what video game makes fun.
Oh the bait lol.
I swear this guy spends more time talking about FF as apposed to actually playing it lol has he even reached Stormblood
For many people the story in FFXIV is a hurdle which they might not overcome as they wish to play a game and do not desire to read a book. Also for a story in an MMO I would say SWTOR offers a more interesting approach to it by having dialogue options where the player character has an actual say in it. If you care for combat gameplay and quickly want to get into action, go with SWTOR or WoW for roleplay FFXIV is the clear winner.
Not being forced to do anything at level cap makes me play the game so much more than if I had a daily/weekly preset tasks I needed to do to stay current. A themepark isn't any fun if someone is telling you which rides you're allowed to do in what order.
What happened to your hand mate? Hope all is well!
