    Definitely a good idea. Seeing DoL only get two Leves issued per run, is unbearable to run back and forth such a long distance.

    Would be great to have. But.... You can set your hp in town. Choco or Tele out to the camps, return back to town. Really not that bad atm. I'm glad i can do more then 8 a day. Makes filling up the weekend time more enjoyable.
    Even if you return to your city and even if you set your camps to favored, the anima still runs out fairly quick. For my weaver leves I need to go to Bluefog to turn my leves in, and that's suicide even with a chocobo if I don't teleport. And then I still need to make my way back to horizon and drybone as well to hand in.

It would certainly help legitimize the new binge-and-purge option of playstyle for leve-grinding, as well as make it a lot more user-friendly.

    Great input; +1
    Exactly. The changes made to the leve system were definately user-friendly, and looking ahead I think extending this trend would lessen the tediousness of grinding and possibly open some wallets. I think players enjoy challenging content, as opposed to a challenge of thier patience.

    I can get to Bluefog without problems. The only aggressive mobs are the vultures and they don't aggro quick enough, unless...are you going left after you leave those canyons? You can go around to the right. There's a tunnel through that narrow spot in the mountains just south/southeast of the camp.

    in all fairness this is one of the better ideas i have seen latly on these forums, it would make such a nicer time lvling dol and doh and also dow/dom for obtaining marks. to do say a set of 10-15 leves which is only a couple days worth it takes on avaerage 20-30 anima depending on if you have favoured camps that in a casual sence is ide say average every couple days do this and lvl up get marks etc.. now on the other hand i can blow 100 anima doing this for a couple of lvls 40-50 for crafting to regain this anima take sooo long or i could spend a few hours traveling on choc back and forth to said camps...... or do what i actually do and have a second acount with a mule who just ports my ass all over.. when hes empty delet and make a new one rinse and repeat.

    i am lucky in a way i have 2 accounts to do this i think if i didnt ide have died by now thru the huge time sinks which leves are.. there meant to be casual content after all... that being said, is not spamming 99 leves in one sitting at one camp perhaps a tad overkill also lol. the op's idea imo is golden, just needs some balance to stop full on abuse

    This is a workaround - not a fix. If they would implement a system for leve's on camp it would open up the variety of leve's that can be done. Not just for battlecraft. Also try to keep in mind of people that do leve's duo or in a group, that want the full exp bonus. It'd be better to pick up the leve's all together there, rather than have to tele spot to spot because of the different companies/ running back and forth from town to camp spots. It goes back to same issue, traveling becomes boring while you already want to be done with leve's.

    Any juicy developments from the JP forums regarding this idea?

    After near unanimous support yesterday my thread died due to getting relocated. Is it still being discussed over there?
