No Experience @ 50?

Are the level 50 dungeons not giving experience still or am I just running the wrong dungeons? With the level cap increase shouldn't the level 50 dungeons start giving experience?

SE doesn't want us running and/or speed running those dungeons for exp, so they kept them expless.

Well that's stupid. They made more than half the dungeons pointless to run with the expansion.

It's also to not let people power level to 60 before 3.0 and plowing everything with little effort after the fact.

Didn't they say the roulette gave exp but not the dungeons themselves?
I believe that I read that somewhere.

The roulettes do give exp and gil, but the enemies in the dungeon do not give any experience at all. Basically once you unlock the expansion areas, all the old dungeons are made worthless. The story quests at 51 are starting to give items that are better than World of Darkness.

Aurum Vale gave almost 2500 exp per kill, but Amdapor Keep gave me nothing. I'm sure it has something to do with the dungeons themselves. Since they were designed for level 50 they probably don't have an experience parameter programmed into the dungeons and they just decided to not add one with the expansion.

What prevents that is that the exp bar is locked. Not that dungeons don't provide exp. If that was all that was holding us back there are FATEs E-V-E-R-Y-W-H-E-R-E. I should be 60 solely from just atma grinding if that were the case.

Yeah the EXP seems very deliberate. There are only 10 levels in this expansion opposed to another 50. The EXP gain seems very controlled, all the Ishgard quests seem to give the same amounts of EXP and the monsters don't really have any scaling exp gain at all relevant to the amount you need to level.

Those last 10 levels are most likely going to take more experience than all of the other levels combined. Currently at 2.2 mil for 55 to 56.

wait it means from 47 to 52 (where you have the first new dungeon) you will have only FATE for level other jobs? are you kidding me? it's stupid in too many way! if they didn't want us to get too much exp, they had to make it stop to give exp, after we get to 52.

Exp of dungeons < lvl 50 shouldn't be any different. Lvl 50 -> 51 is where the grind begins (for alts).

I don't get this as well. Like who is going to do the level 50 dungeons now? Like I'm getting better gear in the main story quests from Heavensward than you get from WoD, so like why would anyone do those Raids now? I used to love them but it feels useless now. I know I can do roulette, but as more people hit 60 wouldn't the queue times for level 50 dungeons go sky high since it would be like doing battle on the big bridge or one of those that have super long queue times since they drop nothing so people just do them because they have to?

lv50 dungeons still give that 1x daily huge chunk of exp when done thro roulette and the first HW dungeon is side quested at 51, the story gives you enough exp to get to that point
also i heard ppl were dinging 55ish in n.than fates

idk i hit 60 just with story and dungeon spam
<3 tank que

Well, I either had no issues with leveling as there are plenty of quests available. Dungeon queues also have been moderate so far, even for a DPS.
Leveling seems ok for the "main" job but I'm curious how it's going to be to bring any alts up to 60. As of now I imagine it to be a real pain.

Yeah I was disappointed when I saw no exp from MS or lvl50 dungeons. Only reason I run them is for roulette (once I can get law tomes I will run them more). And yes, Crystal Tower seems pointless now. The drops are pure glamour at this point. And not worth the time or annoyance. Looking forward to Alexander

The sad thing is that not all dungeons give law tomes. Only Duty Roulettes High, Low, and Trial, final story and post game dungeons, and final trial and post game trials give law tomes. The old dungeons still give poetics. Had they at least changed this, then maybe some more people might be willing to run it.

As for leveling alts, use pre Heavensward FATEs and below 50 dungeons (Darkhold seems to be very popular) to hit 51, then start grinding the Heavensward dungeons until you hit 60.

if you hi/low/trial roulette on your 60 the rewards changes from poetics to law

Like I got totally distracted with you saying like, and like, I dont even know whats happening right now. Like... XD

So is this going to be addressed?
I absolutely refuse to do my zenith for the fun of completing it, because all the dungeons I want to do on my alt classes, give zero XP. It's absolutely ridiculous. This needs to be fixed.

People are now 60. Hell, I'm 60. It's now old hat. Give people XP in these dungeons. Fix it during the maintenance this week. Please. Seriously please. It adds a LOT of fun if you get XP while farming for Zenith. Just farming a rare drop times however many rare drops, for zero xp period... is enough to drive people away from it. =(. Please fix, thanks.
