so how many of you made it to 60 during early access?

i hit the mark only just a few minutes before server downtime ;)
i've heard tell of some crazed demons who hit 60 d1 though im not sure if it is a myth or not, how about you fellows?

Hit 60 BTN tonight, only because I totally space-cased about GC provisioning quests, otherwise it would have been sooner. An FC mate hit 60 on his DRG earlier today.

I hit 60 on my PLD this morning and am about halfway to 51 on SCH.

I Got WHM to 60 early yesterday. :) Vacation ftw

Level 59 1/2 with DRK. I was hoping to get it tonight. :( Then the PLD grind begins.

I was too busy having fun with machnist and dark knight.
plus 2002.

How did you guys hit 60 so quick? Do the 50+ dungeons give good exp?

Made it to 57. Job and responsibilities get in the way... still having fun though :D

I want to take it slow, so I'm only around 56 on my bard. See no reason to rush so fast through it.

Got to 60 yesterday. DPS queues are the plague.

Not me, but I did get astrologian to 50.

Did it on PLD plus finished every sidequest with 10 minutes to spare lol.

ME :) I made it about 12 hours ago....spent alot of time waiting on dungeons to pop while doing side quests.

60 Fisher. Levequests are great.

'Course, I can't actually do much with that right now. There's a couple high level bait I really, really need a high level crafter to make before I can really start flexing those muscles, and most of the fishing holes are locked away behind main story progression and/or folklore... so I've quite a bit of work to do yet.

My PLD's 55 :D I take my time ^^ no need to rush

Missed it by about 1.5m exp, just opened up the last area. So close.

Got to level 54 and 6 million gil profits.

Only 58 but I have been and still am bogged down with RL work right now. I am more interesting and looking forward to leveling my crafters, gatherers more so than DoW/DoM. I just need to level DoW/DoM first to 60 to see all the new main story and compliment the gathering of monster kill components. I'll get bard to 60 then switch to leveling my gatherers from 50-60 followed by then the crafters to 60. After that will start a gunslinger followed by dark knight. I haven't been grinding fates or dungeons or leves though in leveling this past week it has all been clearing every single quest that showed up on every single expansion zone I reach. There are zero quests left currently for me at 58 on any zones so I will have to grind exp to59 in hopes will be a large array of new ones popping up to help break the tedium of grinding.

I am having too much fun with AST to bother getting my WHM to 60. Thats without all the damn 2002 and 5006 errors!

DPS Queues were really good this weekend I hear. Silent!! What are you talking about? :p I just got to level 52 with my main hahaha. Just taking in all of Heavensward slowly!!

60 war story quest complete and been getting from 160 gear slowly from drops

Hit 60 yesterday. Spent today doing misc stuff and getting my law weapon. Dem DPS queues

I only hit 55 and I'm on vacation, but I wasn't really trying either.

I noticed they were insanely short. I beat my previous fastest queue yesterday..when I only waited 10 seconds O_O.

The DRK marathon is making this amazing, too bad it wont last lol.

Reach 60 less than 2 days, item level 167 at the moment with i180 weapon.

I sadly had work all throughout the EA. I DID get DRK from 30 to 50.5 though, which I consider to be a good thing. I have a weeks vacation that starts on wednesday, so I'ma definitely know out some serious leveling.

Got MCH to 50 and almost at 60 with my main. Painful experience, this maintenance... soooo closeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

After I get my main geared up I am 95% sure I will work on my machinist. It has a lot of problems but I want it as my DPS.

Lol, I'm almost to 52. Barley had any time to play at all -- maybe 4 hours total. Trying to level up many things at once so that I don't get to the end and not feel like grinding out levels on additional classes.

Every single 51+ dungeon took over half an hour to pop for me. I was lucky to get a handful of runs in with a premade group of linkshell contacts, but the majority of my grind was solo queueing.

Hit 60 yesterday.

57.5 now with every single available quest completed except one last side quest line at 57. Should hit 58 tonight unless there's login troubles. Then by end of the week I should have every single battle quest in 3.0 finished.

My EXP bar is still blue...

I'm taking things slow. I leveled to 54 and made a dent in the story. Once PLD hits 60, I'll go and level DRK to 60 as that job seems fun, but I don't want to fall too far behind on gearing.

Wow! How did you manage that much grinding?

Only got MCH to 54....would rather sleep and let my wrists take a break(spamming MCH abilities to proc the next one kills my left wrist)

I got my bard to 60 about 15 mins before the servers went down.

Not quite, I did quite a bit of sight seeing and taking my time. A few in my FC did. Spotted a few 60s on AST/MCH/DRK Jobs running around already.

I got monk to 60 with a friend who played bard. Doing everything together is what made it super easy, IMO.

Dungeon spoilers: (BECAUSE THIS PLACE HAS NO SPOILER TAGS?)














To be truthful, Dusk Vigil and Ravana were 25min+. Sohm Al, and the Aery(this was the 10 second one) were fast queues.

I hit 60 on Nin right before the servers went down, with 30 minutes to spare. Enough time to fit in an high level roulette before the servers went down. The most excruciating Keeper of the Lake I've ever been.

Only 56 but I've been taking is rather casually. Enjoying myself! No rush.

I was able to reach 60 on my Warrior about an hour before maintenance started, but now I have to wait until it's over to finally finish the MSQ :(

I haven't made 60 in anything. But I do have a lot of crafting classes now at 51. I got nin to 50 from 40. I got Mining to 51 and finally Botany to 50, from 48. XD So somewhere in there there is an xp total that should have made a my main class 60. XD
