Rested XP while servers are down?

It is indeed true, I believe you get a tick of rested exp every 30 minutes, whether or not it is retroactive from going in and out of your inn I'm unaware of currently.

I believe you enter rested once you enter your inn room. I thought the little bed icon ment rested and that was why you couldn't craft in your inn room. They didn't want you gaining rested bonus while not actually resting.

I'm betting it's more limitations, since you weren't able to craft in mog house either. If that's the case they most likely are changing local leves extensively since most people craft at camps (for those) so yeah.

I like the thought of there being Inns in other towns, and even being able to buy tents.

What Elexia said. I believe no crafting in the Inn room was more engine limitations than becuase of the rested exp.

Not that it really matter's but i'm sure it caps maybe nearer 100k. had enough rested to take carpenter from 46-50 after a holiday earlier this year. which isn't far off 400k exp. which with a few manuals and rested seems about right.

In XI you could craft in mog house. I did alot of my crafting in there either for simple peace and quiet or in my more newb days I had believed that crafting in the mog house was the only way to get moghancemnets to work.

To be honest the only way it would be convenient is if getting back to your inn room (And then back to wherever you want to be) was more than a few clicks of a button.

Hopefully this may equate to more meaningfull travel? Making being able to rest at the nearest Aetherite actually reasonable...then again I might be expecting too much on that.

Not really, being able to log out somewhere out in the wild and still get rested exp is still more convenient than wasting Anima to go back there on the next day.

You mean Anima isn't damn near unlimited as it is? Hell you probably generate the anima to reach your destination while you sleep...

It is right now. But there will be no Atomos in ARR, and we don't know much of it will be regained from Hamlet when it changes. They might have made it near unlimited for our convenience right now, doesn't mean it will stay that way.

When ARR launches, rested bonuses will be reset so you won't need to log out in your inn before the final maintenance. In addition, there will be more areas outside of inns that you can gain your rested bonus such as near aetherytes! Isn't that convenient? :)

There goes any ideas of getting a bigger headstart on lvling arcanist that others lol

Darn, looks like they are scrapping the built up rested bonus of everyone who's got a LV 900 character :(

EDIT: Obviously everyone else too >_>" but just saying we can't use ours lol~

You do get rested xp while logged on, you just have to be in the inn room. I rarely log out and still get rested xp for just standing in my room.

No moghancements were passive traits applied to you so they worked anywhere, for example Moghancement: Experience, Fishing and Money obviously would do nothing if you needed to be in your Mog House for them to even function.

Yeah I was kicking myself when I heard this; been building it up for a while now :<

Will we be able to craft there? I was under the impression that crafting in inns was restricted to keep people from consuming rested EXP as it generated, thereby exploiting a loophole. If that's the case, we can expect these rested areas to be packed with crafters. Even well-built servers have their limits.

It generates painfully slow, hardly possible to 'exploit' it.

It's not hard to apply a 10 minutes cooldown before any rested EXP starts to be earned... Actually that's how it works on XIV. You only start accumulating rested EXP after staying for a little while in your room, it doesn't come straight away.

So if someone would be crafting in his room, he would have to wait ~10min+ between each attempt in order to receive rested EXP. Which makes it impossible to really exploit.

Sorta related, will anima be reset to 0 as well, since we are losing aethecite bindings on ARR launch?

Everyone, existing and new, will mostly likely have 100 anima at the start of play.

Fair enough. SE loves to take measures against exploitation, so I'm sure this would be a trivial addition for them.

What is going to be sad is if they don't fix the power leveling exploit. I actually want to grind out Arcanist (right?) and summoner. To have a class grinding to level cap will be nostalgic. I haven't had to actually level any battle or magic classes in a very long time. Miss the tiring frustration and overall accomplishment.
