how to get over ur leveling jobs addiction after you have maxed all your jobs

So I have been dragging this out for a long time sense I joined the game this summer. I'm one of those weird types that actually likes leveling jobs, but its so unavoidable that it takes less than a week to get a class to 50 with dungeons and potd. I even leveled my whm to 60 and pali to 56 without any hw content at all haven't done a single post 50 dungeon yet. That being said with msq exp and dungeons most of my jobs will be level 60 as soon as I start actually doing hw content and dungeons. Leveling is one of my fav things to do , the leveling is more exciting to me than gear item level. So my question is how does one get over being a leveling addict once u reach level cap. Im worried Im gona not feel as excited about leveling up my gear but I know this is the only thing thats gona be remotely similar. I do have alts but , aside from ninja, monk and mch which I really dont care for it wouldnt take long to level them up either. Are their any other players out there that just love leveling classes and at first maybe felt lost on what to do next but found something that was just as time consuming as the leveling process. Any tips are suggestions on how to get over the thought that reaching level cap isnt the end of my job? I want to have the same joy I have to day even after I have all my jobs are level 60, I dont wana log in just for an hour to do scrips each week I like that the game can be a time sync if u want it to be but if u dont u can do what u need to do if u souly focus on that only.

Create a new character and level all the jobs again.

Get to Heavensward, get all the jobs to 60, and start progression raiding. Getting through all the extreme and savage content is another kind of rush!

Hah thats aside from what Im asking thought , of course I could do that I have 3 alts already but I really like my main character the most, Im just wondering like what people replace leveling with if they reallly where into leveling and the progression of their characters? didn't exactly mean Id wana redo it on a whole different character

The upgradable weapons kind of replace that grinding at endgame. At lv60 it is anima weapon, collecting battle currency to upgrade them through different stages.

I really enjoy just plain leveling classes too, and have all mine at 60. Stormblood will be released next year and we can enjoy leveling all our classes to 70.

Now I feel bad for trying to sound sarcastic.
I cannot give you an answer since I am too lazy to even level the jobs I already have gear for.

I would just try to see tomes as exp, but you cash them in as you see fit instead of automatically.

Part of the joy comes from the games recognition of hitting the next level (the Level Up effects).

Honestly, I'd rather they look into the Merit Point system from XI. Give exp a reason to still exist at max level.

How about GC Ranks and of course GC seals. There are a lot of potential ranks we could achieve through promotion, and I am certain that SE could add more beyond what's already implied in the game. So when you reach level cap, you become eligible for a new GC Rank and gain promotions through earning GC seals (tangible evidence of deeds done for GC), completing certian tasks/dungeons, etc. In other words add a horizontal leveling branch at each level cap so capped players still have something to 'level' with their character rather than their gear.

You could do what I did once my life was filled with free time due to not leveling anymore: Squander it.

Catch all the fish.

All of them.
