I really want to enjoy these 3.0 leveling dungeons but....

is it even possible with such pitiful exp rewards? I'm pretty sure Aurum vale gives more exp than most of the 51+ dungeons which is really sad considering the monsters in the 51+ dungeons also take twice as long to kill. Hopefully we get some big exp buffs in 3.1 to make them at least worth running over the level sync'd ones.

They're more fun than AV, if that helps.

The post 50 leveling experience is horrible period. Sure the first one we had quests to help us out but it seems once you hit 50 the exp needed per lvl is insane compared to the exp per hr we can earn. And still have no idea whats with no exp in lvl 50 dungeons, that should have been fixed or implemented by now.

With queue times stabilizing and with dps queues easily hitting 20-30 minutes again, leveling a second or third job is just becoming a pain. They either need to up the exp or reduce the exp needed per lvl. 800-something-k I believe to hit 50 jumping to 3.8m in 10 lvls is just ridiculous.

Remember, you are also getting actions every 2 levels instead of 4. They wanted this to take as long to get from 50-60 as it did to get from 1-50. This is how. You get actions at smaller intervals, but it takes longer to do each one.

Didn't seem so bad to me the second time around excepth for getting from 58 to 59. The rest was pretty easy.

Dungeons are great to practice your new skills into your rotation and also has the bonus of possibly getting awesome new gear.

Only someone who doesn't care about repetition and enjoys it will choose to do AV over and over again instead of the new dungeons.

I just leveled arcanist to 60 as summoner almost exclusively with the new dungeons, and I can't wait for my WHM to get to them(at 47 now, f AV).

It really wasn't bad. Tab out and read forums or do dishes while in queue.

AV is still one of the best dungeons in game, idk why people still hate it.

AV is literally an XP pinata after the first room. Each seedling is worth 2351XP with food, and they're so easy to kill--why wouldn't you want to run AV over Dusk Vigil or the Aery?

Yeah, I don't understand why people have issues with AV. It's really not that hard.

Luckily I did my Bard first and am now leveling my Scholar with with I am getting sub 5 minute que times every time. Oh and I just remembered that this auto levels my Summoner at the same time nice...just need to go do my Job quests and get my abilities.
But any way I am currently at 56 and doing dungeons almost exclusively...just do FATES in Northern Thanalan in between ques to keep the xp rollin' in...LOL. You only have to do like 5 dungeons to get 2M XP...so it doesn't take as long to level each job to 50 as some people are making out...the ques times would be the only hold up.
