People who's Solo lower levels 20-30 ..

Wow really no one even helps do chain events fates anymore what gives ?

People are all lvling jobs 50-60 and doing HW things.

Well im trying to level up my new character and yet no one helps :( even doing chain fate for exp (got told off)

Do leves in between dungeons and soloable FATEs. Since no one is doing FATEs at those levels, they should be very easy/fast to do, except maybe the boss ones. Certain leves are doable in around 30sec.

With your chocobo you should be able to handle all FATES except some of the chain ones or boss ones.

Well what point in rushing to 60 then

It's not too difficult. Theres Leves, roulette, challenge log, hunting log, FATES, etc. Once you hit 40 it should be easier to find FATE pts in Coerthas and N Thanalan then move to HW zones.

I'm confused. Are we really complaining that strangers won't go out of their way to do something for you that they may not want or need when you have plenty of alternative sources of experience points? If you were actually stuck on gated content I could understand, but FATEs? Come on.

I'm assuming you were trying to do the South Shroud fate chain for achievements? Either the couerl king or the capture the base one?

If that's your objective, I guess try a party finder. There are better alternatives for xp at those levels now, so they probably are ignored by people leveling. Most high level players wouldn't even stop in South Shroud unless they were gathering mats for crafting, or doing an unhidden map. If I saw someone running a party finder for specific fate achievements, I might come help, but I wouldn't randomly find myself in that part of the map otherwise.

What's the rush?
Beats me. I don't understand why people do it.
I always tell people not to rush, to play at their own pace, and to enjoy all that the game has to offer as they level up. After all, it's not the destination but the journey that's important.

Rushing might be pace they want and the philosophy you espouse is not universal.

Well im trying to do fates FAST from 20-30 without dying contently as a THM :(

What chain FATE are you referring to exactly?

Personally I feel that 20-30 goes by so fast anyways as long as your doing something...

Most big fates need a lot of people to be worth iy.

I meant im tried forming parties but still get told not to do it and just SOLO how the hell can i solo with a rank 5 chocobo ? who doesnt have tanking or healing

did you learn any cross class abilities that might help like protect, cure, stoneskin and other buffs?

Hrm... You should have gone the healer route with your choco honestly ^^; Its the only one I found worth having IMO~

In Zodiark, I always find 2 or 3 people doing FATES in Costa del Sol. I even find some people in Southern Shroud.

I've had no issues getting my DRG from 1 to (currently) 54 within less than a month of extremely CASUAL playing.

Do your leveling roulette, do guildheists (they give a bonus for every new class you do them with AFAIK), do leves, and you should easily get to 30+, then you can start doing FATEs in Coerthas Central, and there is usually enough people for that, and after 40 you can join Northen Thanalan Zergfest.

then what leves to do for 23 ? i cant solo rope one cause range mobs kills my TBM :(

1 Run of Sastasha and 1 Run of Tamtara and i was lvl 19. If you have a level 60 job these dungeons give you a lot of exp. Do some guild hests, hunting log and you'll reach lvl 20. Maybe you could try another dungeon and go to South Shroud.

Level 20 leves. So Lower La Noscea, South Shroud, or Southern Thanalan.
Get some Potions, maybe unlock Conjurer and get Cure, or Arcanist and get Physick (you can cross-class ACN abilities as BLM), and you should be able to clear any lvl 20 Leve even on +4 IMO, unless you get reckless and pull more mobs than you can handle (try to do one by one).


EDIT: Oh yeah, forgot the Hunting log, also a great thing to push your EXP.

At 23, probably South Shroud?

The north-west one is rated level 21 I think, meaning mobs are 19.
The western one is level 24, so level 22 mobs?
The one by the passage towards Quarry Mill also has level 1x mobs.
Just south-west of Quarry Mill is another FATE that had lv 19 mobs, IIRC.
Then there's a level 23 one in an enclosed area just before getting to Camp Tranquil, it looks intimidating but THMs should be able to solo it with a chocobo by lv 23.

For Leves, seeing the op already has a level 60, we can assume all the leve quest givers are unlocked. So the Costa de Sol pick-a-wine-bottle leve might be worth trying? It can be done without fighting any mobs so you can do it at 30+4 level difficulty. It's just picking stuff up from the beach and dashing to the next item. I think it's called Out To Sea? It doesn't spawn every time but with another class at level 30 to do the other leves on the side, this is not a bad option.

I did my 20-50 all in 2.5 so I'd say South Shroud FATEs are comparable to Leve grinding with the 100% Armory Chest bonus now. Otherwise just using the leveling roulette's daily bonus is a stress-free way to level.

Find the leves which you just have to collect items. The Out To Sea one at lvl 30 can give 11k exp in less than one minute each time you do it. I think there's one at Quarrymill you can do from lvl 25. You'll level in no time.

You've been here since 2011 and asking these things?

First job: Level off quests littered EVERYWHERE on the map in each of the 3 starter cities, and use levequest allowances to fill in the gaps where you run out of quests.

2nd+ jobs: Level off fates, leves, and whatever dungeons you feel like, and keep your chocobo companion out all the time. Healer companion makes a HUGE difference in what you can solo, tank companion if you are leveling healer.

Obviously, there's some fates you just plain can't solo, even with chocobo, but honestly those fates usually take way longer to complete. Could get the same or more xp from smaller ones done in the same amount of time.

...But then that person isn't rushing, now are they? o.O
I find that my philosophy is pretty universal actually. It lets people set their own pace and be responsible for themselves.
