Yesterday, I was playing with my friend, who came back WoW a month ago, and we were eager to try this 'party sync' system together. He is level 68, I'm level 87. So, after hours of questing together in Outland, we realised this negative buff effect on him, and I felt really bad that I held him back, and that he would have leveled up much more without me. 😢 He doesn't wish me to play with him like this. And I still wish to play through every expansion without over leveling them. So. This stuff Blizzard has made, ruined mine and my friend gameplay. I just don't see why? How is this cheating? With party sync, I was downscaled to level 80. It's not cheating. 'World of WarCraft meant to play TOGETHER' 👈 Quote from the dev team.
