It ended up with over 60k views. And all i'm asking for is ONE spot and instead people give vague obvious answers. All you did was post the different things in this game that give sp... like I wouldn't be able to have figured that out myself by rank 50.
    Then other people post "do rank 30 leves at 3 stars" even though i clearly say thats what i had been trying.
    Some posts were constructive but honestly most were just people trying to justify that this game has something to do without ever trying the stuff themselves.

    The fact you think i'm whining just shows you think low of this game. All I asked is a simple question. And its sad almost no one can actually provide an answer.

    I would honestly try either the beastmen camps at your level or the raptors around iron lake, but I am not sure if you can solo

    It seems that if you don't say the wonderful is the game right now you won't get friendly answers from the "wonderful" FFXIV community. Damn fanboys.

    I was looking for some ways to level because I've cleared all the leves/missions at my rank range and when I saw this post some light appeared.

    He was looking for an answer, just like lot of people do and (as he already said) most of your replies was useless or ofensive in a way of defend yourself or the game. WTF is with you people? Stop being rude or asshole and try to be more polite.

    If you don't have nothing to say just shut up and skip this topic.

    1. Speed is the most important thing now. You need to finish your leves in 5min or less.
    I, too get ~4k every leve and i finish them in 2-4min. So it's like 4k every 5min and 30-35k in an hour.
    I don't know how this is bad.
    Do it on one or two starts.

    2. Leve skill points will increase with rank. with rank 40-50 you want get 4.000skill points but 6.000+.
    Every 5min.

    3. Behest isn't half as bad as people say. Skill points aren't good, but behest takes only 3-5min too and you usually get 2.000 skill points

    4. grind on mobs. pick mobs that are more than 5 ranks higher than you. There are a lot of options. Need to search a little bit and try stuff out.

    5. Do quests. They grant you 2500+ skill points with rank 30. Need to spend much on anima though.

    I ranked from 30 to 33 in 2 day without playing the whole day. That would be in fact less than one month to get to rank 50.

    I don't know if it's normal but with LNC @ rank 20 I can't solo mobs of rank 5 or higher above mine. I tried setting defensive actions (such as Defender from MRD) and so but they destroy me.

    The problem is I only have ~300 mp and can't rely on cure since the last patch.

    What can I do in this case to solo grind?

    I am so on the same page with this. I get the question, "How long do you think until you hit 50 in X class". Answer: "Who cares...I will get there when I get there." Some days I am going to charge a class and other days I am going to take it easy. I am normally a "gather everything and do everything person" but I don't let it bother me if I have to wait on something. If this game stresses anyone out they should consider why they are playing the game to begin with.

    Fighting mobs on open field gave 450 sp each mob. Same with party. Storyline quests give up to 46000 sp. Behest depends on your rank but i got about 5k at r46. Leve quest mob ranks changed, but they give ok sp at the right difficulty. It's good balanced and I really dont want

    You need the DD healing abilitys.
    1. One of them is Second Wind. Rank 6 Pugilist.
    It is very powerfull since 1.18 because it don't use stamina.
    That's 200 free HP every 45 seconds.
    2. The second skill would be Bloodbath. Rank 6 Marauder.
    I would use it right before your weaponskill. With Attack boost you can heal for 300HP+.
    Also a 45sec recast timer.
    3. Also very usefull "Prime Condition". It is a Rank 30 Pugilist trait, which increases every healing effect on you by 10%, but you can buy and equip it with Rank 20.
    Second Wind can heal you for 240HP than. Cure and Sacrifice are also more effective.
    4. Shock Spikes are a HUGE help for solo stuff. Not because of the damage, but because of the stun effect.
    5. Sacrifice is still useful. The MP costs aren't high and their healing effect is way batter that the effect of cure.
    But The first 2 skills are sufficient to keep your HP up without any downtime.
