I do. And so do many of my friends and acquaintances. Hehe obviously experience is
needed to get from 46 to 50. For many classes 49 is the great level for spells.
For bards we have the 48 and 50 songs to get.

Plus some on this list argue that level is all in determining your effectiveness in
a raid.

In addition many agree that a full level buffer is a good idea before attempting the
planes. I would suggest that is even more the case after the recent patch.

Not needed??

Again, ??

And again...

Because they truncated the 50 experience so every time you die in the planes or on
dragon runs etc. you lose experience. Unless and until you fall out of 50 into 49
this is likely not an issue. But with enough deaths the loss of level will
eventually happen. This means some loss in stats and of course for bards the loss
of use of Verses of Victory.

Good sir, I agree completely with your core point. I found it to be unfortunately
obscured in this message.
