How am I meant to level with a friend now?

Short of just mindlessly grinding monsters, which is slow, leves are pretty darn slow now with a friend. Just wait for 1.19? I mean.. I really don't know what to do to level.

How did you SP with frinds before ?

Levelink groups?

That is just as mind numbing.

Personally I like Party mob grinds. Some hate mob grinds and love quest grinding. I am glad for the changes.

The most efficient way to Sp in my opinion, is a good group grind on some mobs, try the new beast camps. They are all in a level range, all in close proximity, thus making it convienent.

I would get like 8 people and do 2 levinshower links etc, it was amazing SP.

Now if I try to do a leve with a friend, my friend gets 700 sp while I get 3500.. that is lame.

Now Leves are made to do them in a short time range. If you have some more free time, gather some friends and go outside (there is more world outside Broken Water and Halatali!!), and kill some mobs.

Beastman camps are good places!

Seriously , will people use their brains ....and make (4/5 people) Group Pty ?
That is now the best way to win Good & fast SP .

I just got my swiss friends to play in Mysidia, and what we basically do is Leves and Exploration. Exploration takes way more time, and when we do it, we always have a really good time!
Honestly, SPs is not our main concern. We just want to have fun doing quests, leves and explore, but when we want SPs we just do some leves and kill some monsters.
Can't wait to get them to 25-30 so we can do that awesome dungeon!

how is that fun for you without xp chains? It's mindless and repetitive. I've done grind parties a lot and my body physically starts to ache and pain because of the mind numbing, brutally tedious taxation of it all.

XP chains would help spice things up, but for now ppl saying "dude easy mode is off gotta xp grind like a true pro!" is such a mindless folly to sound like people just don't know how to play the game.

*edit
by the way I'm not assuming you enjoy sp grinding on mobs, I know you just said it's more efficient but I'd like to know if you truly think it's a tolerable, fun way to mainly level up at the moment.

You can't. It's a waste of time. Better wait till next patch, if nothing changes, /quit.

Are you perchance saying that xp chance are "more fun"?

I didn't think one could really argue that seeing a number instead of another on your chatlog is more fun lol.

Man Never before have I heard people tell me that leveling in a MMO is "Slow" as much as in this game that is relatively fast compared to most games.

My suggestions?

Leves
Behest
Quests
Duo

I'm sure between that you will get plenty of SP.
