Is there any way the level cap for the rifts to Eltnen/Morheim could be raised to 65 as it was on retail? The guards in Morheim I remember being rather fun to farm, and it was a nice map to visit. I also don't recall any issues with low-level griefing on retail in those maps, and if there were it would occur just as often as it would in Heiron/Beluslan as level 30 doesn't have that much more defense against high levels as compared to level 20.

Hello,

We do regularly see the messages from players saying that they cannot proceed with the levelling process because of the enemy faction users.

Having actively rifted in Beluslan for the past 3 months, I assure you that the vast majority, if not all, of these players aren't being obstructed in terms of leveling. 9 times out of 10, I find myself as the sole Elyos in the vicinity, and when I do engage Asmos, it's solely in defense when they attack me during my guard farming. The other 1 time out of 10 is merely someone else farming guards without trouble from other asmos due to the lack of incentive.

In my Heiron adventures, I witnessed just a single instance of any asmo actually griefing - specifically, an Aethertech from the legion named "Go Back to Sanctum." It was a once-off occurrence in the last 3 months, not something I've seen happening frequently.

There are simply too many other appealing activities in the game for griefing to be genuinely engaging, and the AP returns for doing so are essentially non-existent, providing little motivation.

If it truly is an ongoing issue, merely opening up the rift would merely shift the location for any potential bottlenecks, rather than boosting how often they occur. However, if you're seeking a more balanced gameplay and stress-free leveling, experiencing the Aion Riftshade server with its active GMs and devs might be worth considering. The server's focus on providing a stable, high population environment ensures that such issues remain minimal and offer players an engaging experience with less frustration.
