Wish I knew where people got all this money to pay FC burns. I never had that much and if I ever will I definitely wouldn't spend it to EXP, which is something that shouldn't be done by afking (thus the word 'experience'). Because of these activities newcomers are getting pushed away from the game because they don't have the gil to pay burning nor can find someone to exp with.

As I've said in other posts, I think SE should just make Fell Cleave magical damage and nerf it. That would solve the problem once for all. Other activities such as farming dark rings or empyrean boots can be done without it just fine (Personally I do it as blue mage). Let's see if this banhammer brings some life back in previous exp areas.
Nerfing cleave would do nothing because AoE exp burns have been around for years, even before level 80+ and fell cleave. Remember summoner burns? There is also Aeolin edge and Cataclysm burns as well as blu "cleave."
Just my 2 cents in regards to the "nerfing one weaponskill will solve all the problems" train of thought. Fell Cleave is currently just the most popular method is all.
