Ever heard of COMPANIONS? Those things will PLAY THE GAME FOR YOU. It's an EASY GAME.
Get enough influence with them and you won't have to battle at all! Companions will do it for you!
So are there any REAL issues with level sync? Please tell me
I played the expansion. 4.0. Robs the work you put into the character(s) and Companion(s), And Makes Cybertech or whatever: Crew Skill feel like the exact opposite Crew Skill. Level Syncing makes whatever planet you travel too a lot harder. If you are playing as a lower level. It makes you feel like you're cheating. That's what I've been reading in-game.
From others I've chatted with in-game General Chat. Some of them just stay away from warzones. World Bosses take along time to respawn. That's on Chap IX. 30-40 mins. Including, A player said: 30 - 40 min my eye. He was waiting until 3pm. for it to respawn. You can't get access to the vendors with the expansion on the Repub station.

I even read there comments (In-game general chat). The feeling I'm getting is. We're waiting for the Raqghoul Resurgence to come up. Flashpoints that I use to do at level 60. Now I'm getting killed. Its a lot harder for the robot to heal you.
May the Force be with you. May the force be with us all.

Its my opinion. Some of us might not agree with it. Others might. I'm really starting to get stress. So I'm going to stop for now. Sorry for the reposting. Its was meant for you.

I honestly haven't had any difficulty in any fight in SWTOR except when i solo Star Fortress H2+s and do HM/NiM ops and PVP. The rest of the content is pretty casual. Any player can play the game and enjoy it. Newbs can stay on the lower level planets until they get enough influence with their companions so they can steamroll the rest of the game.
Companions can become strong enough to carry you through the entire storyline of SWTOR.
Content in this game has been made easier and easier and easier and easier. The only difficult content is mentioned at the beginning of this paragraph. And it's meant to be difficult so no reason to complain.

I've pretty much accepted the fact this isn't going to change unless it's enough to really make people unsub and leave. It seems clear to me that the real reason they added this feature was so they wouldn't have to make new heroics for the oddessen weeklys and to force you to run them at proper levels. It's a huge time saver for them and the easy way out.

Although I could just be drawing conclusions but all signs are pointing to; "Here's a way to make the players do old content to progress in new content"

Now I like the idea of the system; but it being always on without a way to turn it off just sucks.

I agree. It's a cheap, easy out for them at players' expense. It definitely needs an OFF button.

I haven't even touched the game since I downloaded it. They ruined my companions and they ruined planet missions with level sync. I can't play the game like this, SWTOR was unique now everything is becoming like every other MMO. My HK is ruined, it was epic that you could mix Cunning and Aim for ultimate stats, now there is no benefit to being a higher level and master points... nope no more.

That's fine. I drop enough bank monthly on this game for 5 subscriptions. Your share won't be missed.
