SP 11-20 vs 45-50

For those 1-30 is easy... you just need to know where to go and kill what. After know that go with a party and you get exp fast.

Like going to that 15 or whatever dungeon (never tried yet) and ocne you get 25 you can go to toto-rak (seems give nice exp now from what people said).

There is also various camps where you can do various chains and so on.

Instead of being lazy and asking for pl, try to find those nice camps and lvl up. With pl you dont get any experience or discovery the good camps to grind or even other places.

PS: when you go in a party is better the others members have some knowledge. Yesterday a ls member went to exp as thaumaturge on earlier 30's and there was another one. But that other one didnt cure others because said it would kill him (using the sacrifice to reduce hp) and hadnt conjurer lvled to use cure. Yeah, some noob there... You can picture the situation lol

PS2: good place to go on earlier lvls is in gridania, going to moss, tranquil and mun-tuy celars/treespeak.

I wouldn't exactly call myself lazy.. In fact I would be more than willing to look for grind spots to level up however. Finding a group is hard as hell at level 10.. Now i'm 18 and it took me an hour and a half to find a group of 7 (R10-17) to fight in the in the new dungeon (really fun btw) but the point is.. Yeah knowing camps are great! But finding people, not so great..That's the problem as many on this post have already mentioned.

I really think party's need to start around lvls 10~15 now. Hence the new lvl 15 dungeon, I think they want the game more party based again. Leves allow for casual solo players to gain xp but it's at a slower pace.

Start getting party's together around 10-15 and I bet it will go a lot faster. I will do this when I jump on my MRD and report back to the forum.

Also, it seems crucial to have new, non dated gear at lower levels in my experience. My CNJ used to decimate things pre 1.19 with a wand and shield. To do any damage at all I needed a stave with +AMP

honestly i think the issue is more that, people dont have parties that are that good at those levels, also less skills are less entertaining. You get less exp, yeah, but your tnl is a lot lower. Your more likely to be soloing or small grouping your way out of 1-30. so basically hmm.... not really a good idea to make it faster, if they plan to one day have a lot of players, but ehh thats not right now, so i dont know what to say about that.

I think the biggest problem is people are so used to not grouping at the lower levels that it escapes most to even consider it an option. We can't keep playing the game the way we used to.

Warped around trying to find a spot to grind solo (12PUG);

Mole things near Drybone; garbage, they keep tunneling and waste your exp chain time
Puks; near Skull Valley; good spot
Bats; in Sphoshae; little bat room, good but not as good as puks

Got like chain4 220ish exp, still took foreva

Went from 12-18, I guess about a level per hour give or take, was mind-numbingly boring. Last level I was dozing off zombie mode. That was awful.

The last couple levels I had to slaughter the low level puks because I was too low for the 17-19 puk camp (I think someone went there and killed all the 17s and almost every one was 19 so I went back.)

17-18; the low end puks gave like 91 exp, so I must have killed 100-130 puks to get to 18. On the bright side, I have a ton of shards.
