I honestly don't think it matters at all.Â
I mean seriously, not everyone has the time to level up an alt to the EXACT point their character needs to be to express their power and knowledge. If that's the case I need SE to make a unleveling system because Septh isn't a level 60 Astrologian and she doesn't even know anything in regards to the storyline of Astrologian. It simply does not work out given a lot of character circumstances. Septha has been an astrologian for a long time, using the basis of FF: Tactics and the 2.0 known Ishgardian Astrology lore. There would be no way to "level" a character with that background. It's impossible.Â
That said though, if you're one of those people that make their character and base it of what they've done in the MSQ and their job's storyline then I guess it WOULD make sense that they would be near that level and have actually experienced it in game. That said though, such roleplay to see is a little...special snowflake for the lack of a better term and I'm not fond of that ultra uniqueness.
As for the "What sets your character apart from the hundreds of other roleplayers playing special snowflakes?"Â question, it's all based on the actual roleplay. Some dragoons might fight differently to others, some knights prefer to use a counter combat style or maybe use a shield as a weapon instead. Some mages have learned to cast magic through singular commands with their grimoires or maybe they're capable of seeing things that lesser aetherically attuned folk cannot. It doesn't have to be an absolutely solid thing that is in game and shows, because roleplay is about creating things through words. You do not have to be a level 60 character to look strong if you can do that at level 30 or 40. If you can use the power of descriptions, you can make a person look like an omnipotent god-like being (though I wouldn't reccommend that, I'm sure the lorelords would lob your hands of if you tried.)
