Do you still get experience entering a dungeon without duty finder?

Apparently you're going to receive exp from bosses and treasure chests as normal. Not monsters (exp, crafting items, gil). It's fine, leveling up through dungeons was really quick already, picture having a level 50/character destroying everything in front of you. Like you would spend 5/level, even considering the fact that pre-level 50 dungeons now give you an 100% exp bonus based on the adjustments they've made with the armory system.

I don't know, I thought this was a story driven MMO and not a level one? I am all for removing levels altogether. You still need to do the story regardless.

That doesn't counteract my argument at all.

That sounds very fun in some dungeons.

You act like I was arguing against you, I simply said that many people defended the story being locked out for new people. I say fine, however because you "need" to do a major story line that is enough. You don't need levels if you lock out everything by a story.

I didn't agree, or disagree with you.

Still doing dungeons for relic and zodiac? You won't care about leveling in those old dungeons, you wanna do em fast as possible without any syncs.

Curiously. I don't like this new feature.

If you scrolled down a little bit you would of had the answer.

The Undersized Party option can only be used for the following duties
2.X dungeons / 2.X Trials / Binding Coil of Bahamut / Second Coil of Bahamut / Final Coil of Bahamut

This option has no effect on the strength of enemies or mechanics in the duties it is applied to. Players will still receive treasure rewards, first time completion bonuses, and experience points upon completion of duty when using this option. However, players will not receive experience points or items from enemies that appear prior to boss encounters. Spirit bond and soul resonance cannot be gained when using this option.

I guess we will have to powerlevel through dungeons normally now. =(

And it is!!! and I totally will rekt everything. You can do this in MMOs like Tera or WoW. Everybody loves that. I have a date with Aurum Vale. The reason I think they removed the exp given by monster was a matter of balance. To fix the exp reward from other content or the roulettes themselves. However, with some many jobs at this point, I don't know if it will be a good idea to keep it like that in the future. Specially with the fact that all the jobs need skills from the other jobs.

I loved going back in Tera, destroying everything and leveling friends. Was a fun thing =P Loved that in Everquest too, got payed well for my powerlevels.

I like it keeps bonus xp locked to once a day maybe twice a day and forces people to do the expansion content rather than sit in town and wait for queu's. Getting a dungeon should still be easy since we'll gear up in dungeons.

Im not sure how this function would force someone to do the expansion content?

This only affects higher levelled players e.g level 59 going into the level 15 dungeon - Sastasha unsynced.

They go into the dungeon, alone the monsters will give no experience (I used the level of 59 as an examples as you wont gain experience past 60 so it reflects my point) and the monsters will drop no items.

HOWEVER - Dungeon bosses will still drop equipment chests when you beat them.

Again - I'm not sure how this would affect bonus xp or force someone to play the expansion specifically.
