If the 15th level party lost a guy, and he was replaced by, say, a 12th level guy, this is like Ostweiler replacing Manning. But if you enforce 1st or 3rd level replacements, this is like forcing Denver to play a high school QB.Let's use a soccer analogy instead: Chelsea legend Didier Drogba has retired after many years of faithful service. Chelsea need to find a replacement for this world class striker, so the get Diego Costa.If Drogba was 15th level, what level is Costa? 15th? 12? He's certainly not 1st or 3rd! Chelsea aren't forced to call up an unknown schoolboy.If the 15th level party are doing the appropriate stuff, lake saving the world, why would they take a farm boy? Why would they take a village talent, when surely they want to recruit the best guy they can, and if the best guy available simply can't cut the mustard then leave him at home where he won't get in the way, die, or mooch XPs.</blockquote>
