    Crafting Leves give WAY too much EXP!

    Not to say I am not enjoying it ( Because) I am, the human minds love the easiest route for some reason! lol). Costa del sol for an HQ turn in gives you 60k exp.. I made 20 HQ Cornbread in 10-20 mins, then did a back and forth turn in ( and still going currently) and got 5 Levels in 5 mins...

    I just think the EXP giving is a bit over-excessive and suggest it be tone down a bit.

    Having to use your own mats justifys the big exp. In 1.0 you didn't use your own mats but it was low exp.

    No.
    It's painstakingly tedious to craft imo.
    There is multiple ways to level battle.
    Not too many with crafting and stuff.
    Plus using your leve's take a while to regen so..

    Crafting without leves still give you alot of exp. I understand you have to get your own mats and all that, I still personally don't see the justification of the exp gained.

    This is just my opinion, I will probably continue to use this route, but that's not to say I am still annoyed by it.

    Yes it does give a lot of exp.

    Ixali beast tribe quests also give lots of experience and you don't even need mats, quest will give you what you need (and shards/ventures for shards)

    As I said in the OP, The mind tends to use the easiest route once found. My mind can't simply halt what is the easiest, but it's annoying lol!

    I'll be 50 in 2 hours and 3 days I'll forgot all about it I am sure, but I am just expressing my opinion on the matter.

    Crafting by itself gives alot of exp.... once. Once a recipe has that little check on it it's only ever going to give standard exp for making said recipe. Gathering isn't much different. Battle, though, has multitudes of means of ganing exp, from dungeons to hunt logs to FATEs as well as the a majority of quests. Leves have to make up this slack. Yes, some leves are better than others, especially if you turn in HQ recipes, but that's the point. Rewarding the effort of making HQ recipes to ultimately 'throw it away' in a leve. Personally, I think the leves, even the battle leves, are well balanced for the exp they give.

    So you want to level it to 50 then pull the ladder up behind you? Not everyone has an easy time making HQ turn-ins, they require decent gear and a fair amount of cross-class skills to pull off. Yes it's a good chunk of xp, be happy about it and don't try and ruin it for those that come after.
