Ixal NQ EXP loophole
Hey, I noticed that the Ixal quests that require HQ crafts will still reward EXP for crafting the NQ item, and those are stackable so it's possible to just craft a bunch of NQ ones and get free mats basically.
Is this meant to be like that or is it a bug? It's basically a free unlimited source of EXP (granted, not much EXP but it's enough at lower levels)
Don't really want to abuse that if it's a bug but it doesn't really seem to be, unlike the namazu craft quests which don't reward EXP at all for crafting, the Ixal ones all do..
Any advice? Should I take advantage of it or is it a bug?

Still costs crystals, not a bug. You can also craft HQ, and then discard.

The namzu quests where you craft do give EXPs but they have quests where you don't craft mixed in.

Namazu quests do NOT give XP for the crafted item, and neither do Moogles, and they were all removed for this reason -- people were crafting the items and destroying them and doing it all over again for a rather decent XP Payout if you did this enough.
Apparently they feel that Ixals are low enough level that it doesn't really matter as there are far better ways of getting XP (like, GC turn-ins) during those levels.
