Since the game rewards are already mostly RNG / procedural, why not introducing automatic level scaling according to zones?
This will reduce PVP griefing and will allow people to enjoy PVP since the start. There are a lot of PVP gates requireing specific levels but in my opionion at the current state of the game there’s no real fun on grinding 100+ hours just to be at the right “number”.
It could also help with player retention, since the leveling / tradeskilling is pretty grindy and generic…
Also please, make XP gained from Open World PVP worth it.
