    Please stop saying it's the same. It isn't the same. You're only saying that as an excuse for a flawed design mechanic.
    It's not the same but differently equal.

    I mean, wha?

    Exactly. If you want to compare anything in this game to WoW's rested EXP, it could only be the SP bonus from Guardian Aspect, the difference being you can choose when to use GA, and you gain it even while logged in, while in WoW you are forced to go through your rested EXP until it's gone, and it only regenerates when logged out.

    A WoW-style rested EXP system does not fit this game, because of bazaars. There are a lot of people who leave their characters logged on 24/7 because they are standing in the middle of Ul'dah with their bazaar flags up.

    FFXI got the whole bonus thing right with the EXP bonus rings. It would be best for FFXIV if it was done this way, or maybe the Guardian Aspect system can be expanded for utilization outside of levequesting.

    Where did I mention WoW Btw? WoW isn't the first game to have rested XP.

    But if you want to use it as an example. Sitting in town restores Rested XP in Wow.

    I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.
