How level-sync kills the game for me

Many people have already complained about this new feature, even the ones that this feature was added for.

I am a PvPer. I am poor. I do not have a lot of credits. I do not have the patience to earn credits via the ah.
Until now, I used to farm my credits for augments and gear optimization by killing mobs. I used to go to corellia, farm a day and buy my stuff from the credits I earn there.

I cannot do this any longer now, I am forced to do sh** heroics, which are buggy and overfarmed for a ridicilous amount of time to even be able to optimize the equip of my two main chars.


Level sync is annoying, the ''story-guys'' do not like it, we PvPers do not like it and most PvEers as well dislike it (with a few eceptions of course)

Why can you not make LS optional so you can activate it if you are in the mood of redoing some quests on a 'difficult'' level

I would highly appreciate if you could just let the players decide wheter they want to spend time doing something or not. I HATE story, I HATE heroics, I quickly farm my credits for my gear and then stay on the fleet until next expac.

Please this is not that hard to do.

PVPer here.

I like it.

I am raking in more cash than ever before.

I earned enough for a full suit of MK-8 kits and augs in two days without even trying.

Have to agree here, Level sync is usually a cool feature but it is also annoying, it makes your character feel weak, as you should have grown strong enough to easily defeat those old foes.

how?
I made 2kk in on hour via corellia farming, can you beat that?

I just hate doing those quests. I'd rather mindlessly farm mobs.

A lot of it had to do with making the original planets relevant. And to help deal with griefers but that wasn't the core reason. More a helpful side effect.

I personally like it and want it to stay. I doubt they will roll the system back at this point. Like the class changes people will just have to adjust to it.

Actually the opinion seems to be fairly positive among the PvE'ers. At least based on the posts I've seen here. Sure some don't like it, but the vast majority of threads are the same small group of people complaining about it.

I'm a pvp guy AND a story guy, and I love it.

To each their own, I guess.

Speak for yourself, not this theoretical group of people you believe is supporting you.

Though Mob credit drops are worthless ,,
You can make decent credits , when doing any number of missions.

Level Sync was a great thing that made content non trivial ,

Why can't it be optional?
Imagine Imps could attack reps at all time. People would complain, some do not likle it. This is why you can turn it on/off (on non pvp servers)
I dislike level sync because it only brings disadvantages without anything in favor of it (for me) so why can't I turn it off?
