Nerf FATEs, but don't

[FF2GO]

Personally, I don't think mob based experience should be increased. I think that mentality is a direct reflection of the "I want my max level asap" mindset. I think mob exp is fine the way it is. I have a level 26 Lancer, and level 47 Black Mage and I like the fact that I am actually having to work for what I earn. Now, my personal opinion on fates is of a similar perspective to the OP's except I do not think spawn rates should change. I believe the amount of exp the Fate's give should be lowered by 40% or so. People who fate hop just turn this game into Wow where they jump from one fate to another then sit in cities for ends up ends. Look, the lack of end game is present, but getting to 50 within a week, is not really how this game was meant to be played. Most players who did this did not bother reading any dialogue and now wanna complain about lack of content?!?! That just seems silly to me. In regard to dungeon and leve exp reward, I think a 10% increase is valid, just my 2 cents.

I do want max level ASAP though. I got WHM to 50 back in 1.0, and with the linear way the game works there's nothing I'll be doing as a level 30 SCH/BRD/PLD,etc that I haven't already done before. If I want to progress the plot and unlock new areas/equipment then my other levels need to be at 50 too. The class/job storylines are interesting, but the "now go off and grind 5 more levels because we need to pad this out" really grates the second/third/fourth (or more) time around. As others have said before - FFXIV feels like an MMO designed for a single character, not one that apparently wants you to level up at least two others (for cross-class skills).
