At some point a player is going to be tired of grinding items 24/7 no matter what, making some sort of solution desirable in terms of design (alts != answer). I don't support adding more 'heirlooms' as for example the suggested level 33 heirloom, that would only make the game even more unbalanced. Heirlooms IMO off-set the balance and I for one am for removing Heirlooms altogether -- as long as there's something given/added in return that makes up for the time spent.
I'm also of the same opinion when it come to levels, BUT first of all they're not that big a difference in terms of balance, it might mean something for archers to receive 10 more wpf but for most it doesn't mean much, sure you have athletics, one more power-strike and so on, but there are so many other factors in C-RPG, the weight of your items effecting your speed, or that you're a class that doesn't care about armor weight (cav). Overall it is not that big a deal
at all. However, if people want a clear straight forward playing field then just cap leveling at 31 or 32, leave it at that as long as I mentioned above
there's something given/added in return that makes up for the time spent. That's really all people are looking for. If there is one thing gamers care about it is the amount of time they've invested into a game, and retiring past 32 means you're throwing away time invested into the game.
I'm generation 17, made most of those back in the day when you only had to be level 15 and registered for a week to retire. I stopped retiring like more than a year ago because I decided I had enough looms, one for each slot to be specific, which left me with no incentive to continue the grind at the time (Strategus crafting wasn't in -- but I would be reluctantly grinding crafting if that were the case).
All
I want to do is play the game when I want and feel like it, if I was still retiring I would need to play up my character to an appropriate level to participate properly in events, meaning having to grind every week or at least every other week.
TLDR: No more XP, adjust game instead.
