I was wondering why some people, even though you're the same level as them, may gain more experience than you or vice versa.

I was wondering why some people, even though you're the same level as them, may gain more experience than you or vice versa.
It can be a number of reasons. They may be eating food, they may have resting bonus active (a bonus built up when you idle/logout in sanctuary areas, Inn Room etc.). If it's in a dungeon they may actually be synced (look for the little yellow icon by their name) which means they will get slightly adjusted experience.
There is also an exp bonus to those that already have a lv 50 class/job
It depends on a number of things. Do they have a level 50 already? There's an added exp bonus to speed up leveling. Do they have the helm of light (for lv1-10)? Food for 3% buff? Grouped vs solo? Rested exp? Chocobo companion out? Etc.
I know it's not the food because neither of us ate an. Neither of us has a resting bonus, either. I'm not sure what else it would be. Thank you very much for the answer though, more enlightening than the "Idk" I got from my FC members lol.
Also, no, neither of us has a level 50 or uses a Chocobo companion to fight. Also no helm.
If you have any bonus whatsoever it shows up as a % alongside the experience points. Do you show different percentages? Also you don't need a level 50 class. Any class below your highest level class will get a bonus based on the difference in levels between the two classes.
Oh! Okay, the level difference thing is what it is. That makes sense now, thank you very much.
Nevermind :)
