    the problem is people think gusgen mines is the only xp camp., no one does any kinda exploring. all these camps and no one even know about it. sure the site is a bit old but you get the idea. it pages there and also great for low man pts.
    todays camp are now.
    lvl 4-30 gusgen, 30-99 "that place" 85%+ of the people.
    some. 5-30 gusgen, 40-60, CN, 60-75++ Bostaunieux 15% of the people.

    sad thing is even with double xp many still was in the book burning with 18/18 Gusgen wondering why the xp not that great.

    :edit also to add that not only you getting xp but skill ups from them other camps lvls too., cant skill up if you cap at 20 the whole time

    I think people stick with Gusgen Mines because its easier, can stay there from 10-50+ if the flow of people available, just keep resyncing to a level 15+.

    Old school I use to level in dunes, buburimu, Maze of Shakarami til 20 then level up in Qifim/Kahzam. But Kahzam is only good if you take the time to do airship quest.

    Qifim is good til 30, you also had Delkfutta tower. Just the Gov pages in Qifim is annoying than have a straight skeleton only objective.

    Also there is Crawlers nest, Batallia Downs, Sauramogue Champaigne, Garlaige citadel, Gustav Tunnel, Labrinth of Onzonzo, Altepa Caves, Altepa Desert, Yhoater Jungle, Yutunga Jungle, Sea Serpent Grotto, Kuftal Tunnel, Cape Terrigan.

    Lets just put out some really simple alternatives to Gusgen then. Dangruf Wadi to 23ish, Korroloka Tunnel to 43ish, and Delkfuts to 50. All easy to do, and I often run into another person to team up with in Korroloka and Delkufts. After those its easy to go to Garlaige until 56ish, then from there it starts depending on job. But at that point lots of places can roam to if not afraid of traveling.

    When I leveled BST years ago, doing it solo taught me so much about the mobs around the world. What type of mobs typically aggro, which link, what tp moves to watch out for. How to traverse a zone without snk/inv (which sounds like a forgotten skill based on complaints of true sight/sound mobs in Adoulin). I learned how to read my maps. I get extremely frustrated if I am going somewhere in an older area with another person and they have no map or any idea how to get from point A to point B. I'm sorry, but if you are on a level 99 job, I shouldn't have to hold your hand through Beaudicine Glacier.

    I'm proud to say that I have never completed a page in Gusgen Mines. Granted most of my jobs were already at 50 before GoV was implemented but ones that weren't I found other places to level. Recently on RUN, I think I followed this path. Gustaberg - Horotoru Ruins - Delkfutt Tower - Garlaige Citadel - Quicksand Caves - Labyrinth of Onozo - Abyssea. In the past I've played around in Fei'yin, Kuftal Tunnel, Korroloka Tunnel and Gustav Tunnel. There are options out there if you aren't just looking for the quickest xp or bust.

    I've also asked friends or people in LS if anyone crafts or if anyone knew any crafters. Or I'd check In the weavers guild to see if anyone was there. However at 99 I always try to add people to my friends list that I can pay for craft services.

    One thing I noticed, anyone will respond if its worth their time so I use to offer like 50k.
    I did this for when I was hunting down weapons, I typically got lucky on the boxes (Hence I wear Gothic Sabatons/Mufflers on some of my mid-range jobs.) but other than that I like to browse the ah and spend money on stuff so I have it for jobs.

    Depends on the job. Puppetmaster, for example, can have a lot more to play with than that. Even at level 10. There are many things to learn to play PUP well.

    I frequently duo/trio with folks. Conversation happens!

    (If it's not and you're on Ragnarok, look me up. My linkshell's not only full of talkers, it's in multiple languages to boot.)
