    What to do for EXP on low level jobs?

    So i have decided to level a new job and the subjobs that go with it so i can maybe d some delve's. But what do i do for exp? When i rejoined shortly before SOA came out everyone was leveling in Gusgen mines and Crawlers nest.

    But i have been checking over the past week and both places are always empty. And soloing my way to abby is not my idea of fun, especially when one of the subs i need to level is WHM, a job without much in the way of offence and one i find very boring to play.

    You could level to 30 easy though. As for Gusgen mines, you might wanna shout and make a group than wait. So many people are busy doing SoA. Doesn't help when SE made 5-10 hour events like Wildskeeper Reives to fight 1 boss =p

    You don't need 18 people to do gusgen mines. I don't even think its faster killing stuff fast waiting for repop.

    You can stay there until 27 and then breeze the last few levels in Qifim or Delkfutts Tower.

    If you sub Corsair for Corsair roll on top of Emperor band, you'll get there faster.

    Do you have pup or bst leveled? At low levels, /pup is a monster, especially if you have the ranger frame. I didn't want to really be a healer, so I went whm/bst when /pup lost its effectiveness. It's not hard to level solo, and you can try out different camps to take a break from gusgen mines or crawler's nest.

    Unfortunately, best options for getting xp is pretty much solo now outside of Abyssea.

    Best thing to do is follow the GoV books. Ignoring Gusgen, best path I have found is Dangruf Wadi -> Korroloka -> Delkfuts -> Garlaige -> Varies based on job -> Quicksand Caves. If just trying to get to 30 so can go to abyssea, Dangruf Wadi will get you to 23, and then either Korroloka or Maze of Shakrhami would work to get to 30.
