Never agreed with level sync range, still in one of the worst decisions made on the server. It effectively stopped veterans from being able to party with newcomer friends. The level sync issue is not a problem on any of the other servers that allow level sync.
As someone that's played a bit on Eden, this definitely depends on your definition of "problem".
I brought a friend to the server around spring/early summer(2019), he pretty much quit because of the level sync gap, he played on Japan time and at best, the server was always a 10gap range. He quit because I couldn't party with him. The reason the sync gap exists is because of very small niche power pulling manaburn groups that existed in late 2016 that started pulling in popular xp camps(bibiki bay). These changes literally had nothing to do with stopping people from perma syncing and hitting 75 in the dunes. Instead of putting rules in place saying you can only claim x amount of mobs, he decided to put a sync range in place.
It had nothing to do with a growing population, stopping people from endlessly leveling in dunes. It had everything to do with stopping those power pulling manaburn parties by making them much harder to maintain when 75 blms could no longer sync to 15-30. I could name three people right now who you could probably pin blame on for the sync range being implemented on the server. 2 of them are banned, 1 rarely plays anymore outside from crafting here and there from what I understand.
Lol yes - I'm aware of why he did it.
Sometimes things have unintended consequences, that's for sure. People would do the manaburn parties today too, if given the opportunity. It's been brought up numerous times over the years about removing it, or lowering the limits, and everytime Nas has said the same thing.. That he thinks it's still necessary, and that the level ranges are already considerate of those that AFK/mule.
As for your friend, it's definitely true that the server doesn't work for all time zones... and it's also true that you can't just level with friends no matter what level they are. It definitely sounds like he'd like a different experience, and should probably go look for it. I trust that he plays on Eden with you now.. You're not supposed to just be able to party with 5 other people, no matter the level. You're supposed to go find 5 people that are around your level and XP.
I'd direct you to those that abuse the level sync bugs that we currently have to do the manburn parties today still. Making it even easier would just make it more common.
