Hello,
a few weeks ago I leveled my Beastmaster to 99 and I could leave the zone without getting my progress reset ("reset" meaning the page I undertook would start at the minimum experience upon returning). This is no longer the case. I contacted a GM ingame and was asked to submit a bug report here.
I will try to explain the steps as in much detail as possible:
1) I went to Bostaunieux Obliette and started page 4 (killing 9 Bloodsuckers).
2) I killed them over and over again until my experience was capped at 4100 experience points per page.
3) I left the zone using the book's field support option "Repatriation" to buy a new weapon on the Auction House.
4) I returned immediatly to Bostaunieux Obliette to resume my page.
5) I started at 2050 experience points again.
No additional actions were taken (no changing jobs or anything). I tested it today again and it seems that changing the map alone causes this weird behavior. The Job doesn't matter as well since I experienced this as Beastmaster and Red Mage.
I ran several file checks just to be sure but nothing changed.
Yours sincerely,
Segaia
