I do not understand all the whining about it, I 1 shotted a silver and got around 2k in xp.

Why is that so horrible?
Because it feels like your cheating. And you're suppose to be fair. One shot kill isn't really great. There are others I would like to say but I won't.

I like level-sync as it is....i just don't get what the problem with level-sync is...i just don't....its awesome.
Its not fair. Because, you get mobbed by the planets you already visited and people last time around. We're complaining about it. To put a finer point on it. That syncing doesn't do anything. But make it hard first time players. Also, I'm a first time player of this MMO. And Bioware agreed not to do anything we didn't want. Because I explained about the freedoms of others. Even in other Countries. <---This has everything to do with the game. Because lets say that you look at the game. Want All PvP. Now someone says NO. What happens next is that people will go somewhere else. Because, The Company didn't keep there promise.

I have my own thread on this two, and I agree fully.

Level 12 Baras final boss for story mode Sith warrior!!! Why bother when you companion can solo it. Level sync has completely f-ed up the end of story quests. Since most final battles for story mode are on early planets all the end quest are pretty much f-ed up.

Also I agree with several pp. I am by and large a solo player. I like my guild. Love them. I run ops and fps with them, not planet stuff. I have been a loyal subscriber for 3 years and this 1 patch has royally f-ed me over.

I love the no companion gear. I think the mastery is stupid, but hey I don't care too much. The new content is super after you figure out the new companion switch. The new crafting worked about pretty well after I stopped grumbling about buying new schematics. I even got used to my companions doing multiple role. Let me tell you Darth Mar as a healer looks super funny, but still all this positive is ruined by level sync.

I went from being a few levels over but independent on my toons to struggling but leveling at an even faster rate. I had a toon who was 51 starting Sec X and she was 56 less than two hours later just running each quest once for weekly and Sec X story mission. This does not fix leveling elitism. I understand the need in PVP zones for this feature but it ruins when you need to go back to a lower planet for a quest at a higher level (like companion quests, dread seed, final story quests, bounty week) etc.

If they were honest with why they didn't like it than I could have empathy. The problem is most of these threads and I mean most not all are by the following.

1. People who hate the concept and will blame any game problem on level sync.
2. People have no idea how it works and make statement which are completely false about it.
3. People who claim two completely opposite thing are true. It makes me have to group and makes content too easy to beat.
4. Or the complete irrational person who just goes on and on about how it is ruining every thing .

I can tell from their post that one they went in thinking they would hate it so they hate it. Or they haven't even tried it. I truth is it barely has touched game play ability. If they didn't announce it put it in without have onscreen notification. If you didn't try to solo a world boss you wouldn't even notice it had happen.

If you are honest and say I don't like just because I don't like it. I can empathize with that. The solution isn't to rail against it because it isn't going anywhere. The solution is to point out the problem you think it is causing you. That way BW might address those but level sync isn't leaving and I am pretty sure it isn't going optional.

Will you stop spamming the thread if you aren't going to add anything. It actually is making your sides argument look worse.

I always verify info.

Each piece of armor has an armor rating( based on armoring/Class for modded gear or A value on the gear) . While you say you always verify your info then why did you make a false statement. You said gearing didn't matter because armor rating is sync. That is completely and totally false. While armor rating is sync it is still based on how good your armor is for your actual level. That would mean even though armor rating is synced gearing still matters. I will take you at your word you verified your information that would mean you wanted something to be true so you said it even though you knew it was false hoping no one checked it. You can't have a discussion about a topic if one side will all give lies and half truths because the facts don't support what they want to believe. I am starting to think anti level sync is because a religion where you belief out weighs facts.
