The best area to train

I am not lvl 46, and the next main quest requires me to get to lvl 49, where should i have my character trained?

Actually, I'd suggest grinding up to level 50, because if you're where I think you are in the story, having your last Job skill and your full Job artifact set will be quite helpful.

Anyway, as for ways to level...
1.) Dungeons. I'd personally suggest Dzemael Darkhold, because Aurum Vale isn't actually very pleasant trying to grind. Also, you can get some nice equipment sets from DD.
2.) FATE grinding. I believe the best spot for this at your level is in Northern Thanalan. I'd recommend trying to get into a FATE party.
3.) Levequests. Not as good as the first two for pure EXP gain, but can be easily solo'd if you can't find a FATE party and you're getting frustrated with dungeons.
4.) Straight monster grinding. Worst EXP gain overall, but you can do it while waiting for a Dungeon queue or FATE to pop, or while heading between Levequest locations, so it's more like supplementary EXP.
5.) Hunting Log. If you haven't finished it already, do so, it'll give a nice little chunk of EXP to help you on your way.

That's about all I can think of right now. Happy hunting!

Yeah....all this ^^. FATE Grinding still works pretty darn good right now. Dungeon Roulettes give a lot of XP also so do those every day.

You can also train your chocobo while doing it.

I used aurum vale from 47-50, mixed with fates while waiting on cues. Aurum vale used to be bad for grinding, but now most people know what they are doing, so its not that bad. I actually find it fun...

I recently got 50 SCH and I haven't run out of quests yet. There's plenty of side quests as well as the main storyline, especially for the level 45+ range, so be sure to keep an eye out for those icons on every map. Also, the most exp I got in that final week was from Low Level and Guildhest Roulettes. You can easily get 200k exp in half an hour from a single Satashta run with roulette so don't be shy about using both of them.

uhm, its the fastest possible way ingame to earn exp, you make like 20k exp/ minute, until you run out of leves
just do that single escort leve at mor dhona over and over, the escort takes 20 sec + some npc blabla = 1 min per leve and a 20k exp reward

yeah leves are fastest exp possible in game atm.

Only downside is limited amount and needing to save them for crafts if you plan to level them in any reasonable time frame

No mention of the daily beastmen quests? The first tier is around lv 44 i think. You can do 6 every 24 hours.

but the maximum one for me is only 10k, is there one giving 20k?

Leves in mor dona give out around 20kish xp depending on how fast u are and if u kill bounty nm and do the beast tribe dailies.

The Mor Dhona Leves only give 20k once you have the Armory Bonus, which the OP Doesn't have since it's his first character.

Since I'm a completist, I would recommend getting to 47, then doing AV (hopefully getting your GC Promotion), then the quests that open up in Waking Sands, then Hunting Log/Exploration, and then see where you are.

It's level or exp, not train.

If i remember right tier two is 46 and the tier 3 quests are level 48 and gives you about 50-60k for tier two and three.

how do you get 200k exp from Satashta?

Bonus from duty roulette. only once a day and your not guarantied to get satahta. Roulette adjust the
bonus to between the dungeon and your level. the higher you are and the lower the dungeon the bigger the bonus.

true, thanks a lot guys

Try hitting up either West La Noscea or Outer La Noscea...or both. There's a bunch of quests there that open up around that range.

The leve is located St. Coinach's Find in Mordhona. The leve is called "One of our Naturalists is Missing". I leveled there from 44-50 with an allowance of exactly 100 leves, 18768xp per turn in with the occasional "Put Your Stomp on it" leve to reset the selection. So yea, round 18k xp per minute.

edit : armory bonus applies to leves now

idk about your server but on mine people like doing av first room kill for exp (about 100k) i like (darkhold) much better seeing its the same exp but faster xD

Bonuses for doing it at a higher difficulty and for doing it fast boost the actual experience, plus if you get a bounty mob...
