Looks like is not. But is it lol. Start in 33 while others start in 1.? This game is about all. See this example.The first budokai of DBOG server. After 1 Week the server started. The Ppl that started in lv 33 will be like 60+ while PPL that started in 1 will be like 40+ . Who will win?. I repeat. There is aone reasson why oficial server didnt this.
It should be like a prize (Like in the old server) when u hit some high lv. then u can use it for sell or for lvl alts chars.
That won't happen, I'm sure Daneos isn't adding the Budokai till at least 1 month after launch.
Also, we've already established the leveling ordeal. It's not as bad as you think. Pre-Open beta people got to level 70 in less than a week, without any stones and with broken quests.
