    EXP Rings

    With the last update we saw an increase to the amount of possible exp earned in regular zones. Is there any plans to increase the amount of charges, increase the duration, have higher EXP-caps, and lower recast times on the EXP rings? I feel that an increase to these items would make leveling lower jobs just a little bit easier since I would like to avoid key-whoring my job up in Abyssea. Also I feel if changes were made to the rings it would promote outside leveling just a little bit more. Any information if possible would be ideal.

    I personally believe its fine how it is, But I would not adamantly object the idea of maybe increasing the Cap on it. Not the Actually Bonus.

    Truthfully I'm just thankful Exp is so good now that Even without the band it feels like i have a band on

    I think it makes sense to double the exp cap on rings now that the exp rate has also doubled. If you think about it, exp rings are now half as powerful as they used to be , compared to the exp the monsters give.

    Likewise with FoV EXP bonuses. You get less of a bonus on most of the pages, than what you could have gotten if you fought continuously instead of running back to the field manual.

    I fully agree with you, Mirage. Of the things I mentioned earlier this is probably the most realistic change that can occur with the exp rings.

    this would be totally not needed, as things are not it is possible to level up a character from 1-90 with 2-3 subjobs in 1-2 weeks (done that already + completed CoP and capped healing and enhancing magic for a WHM mule), doing this would just make exping way too broken outside abyssea

    Why shouldn't it be as broken outside of abyssea as it is inside?
