SP nerfed. We were lied to.

Slowing it down to 12 years to get to rank 50, as someone pointed out? Sounds a bit harsh to me..
But at least it's a safe way to get people pissed at you.
I'm not that far yet, but I'm not happy with these changes, either.
Quests may be a great way for ranking up in other games, which have tons of quests, but FFXIV hasn't.
So if it's so easy and even better than before to rank up, tell us some solid facts on how to do it.

that was a calculation for all 18 jobs to 50.... Not just 1 unsure if you caught that... also that is if you as a player did nothing but leve's everyday and that is it... Trust me there is a lot to do, just people can't get out of the rutt they were conditioned to of: " OMG THEZE 6 LEVE"S ARE TEH BOMB MUST HAVE THESE LEVE'S ONRY 4 TEHZ PARTAZ!!! WUT THEY NERFED THEMZ?!?! ZOMGWTFBBQSAUCE!!!!!! I CAN'TZ THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE TO DU'S ANIES MOERZ MUZT COMPRAINZ!" When they could go oh sweet I have all these quests to do these dungeons to try and omfg look at all these new mob's and redistribution!!!! I can get some of my game friends I have made or find new ones in town to go find these mobs and kill them! because there is a greater/endless supply of them every 36 hours instead of 8....

edit: also want to point out what has already been, leve's are solo content now, and if partying do all the leve's you can not limit yourself to a select few because they had the "best return"
