The fact that it seems you're almost required to grind FATEs to level up classes beyond your first is what's making it difficult for me to want to login and play right now. I got my first class to 50, for my 2nd he's sitting at 43 and a bit and has had to do mostly fates for that, then I have a few other classes in the 9-18 range that would be joining the FATE express for the majority of their playtime. The game is great the first time around but each class beyond that becomes more of a chore. If they hadn't forced so many dungeons/primals into the main story line of the game I would have just rolled new characters altogether.

I just have to comment on hunting logs because in every topic to do with leveling people chime in with how great they are for experience. They are nice for a quick boost at lower levels but they do next to nothing near the top end. Getting 40k for a hunting log is a nice bonus, but when your levels are requiring 400k+ at that point, it's not all that much.
