What is the point of the large scale leves?

[Jeykama]

The large-scale crafting leves are a great source of massive amounts of mats, as the repeatables can be turned in 6 times. It's very cost-effective for certain mats if you choose your leves wisely.

Otherwise yes, it's a time vs. caring factor. At best a L leve will only give 60% of the xp of 10 equivalent normal leves, but in like 20% of the time of the latter.

The large leves are only good if the leve allowances are on cap and you can't do 6 leves each day to lower the allowances enough for a full recharge.

Large leves for battle classes give you more XP/hour than dungeons at the same level, if you can get all the bonuses.

If you are doing normal leves on battle classes for exp you are doing it wrong.

The big leves gives you the exp of 5 normal leves, even tho it takes 10 leve allowances.
At least they are done and over with 3 times faster if not more than actually doing 5 normal leves.
Also they are pretty fun to challenge solo, unless you fail :/

which one's? they are closer to 3x the xp - don't be fooled by your 50% armory bonus - large leves... well, leves in general are terrible for XP post 50 - they need to be massively buffed as leveling alt jobs is so slow and grindy... and you can only suffer through the same dungeon so many times.

Well i have used them if i wanted to push a certain level, but agreed for the cost and exp may not at all be worth it. On the other hand if you do not craft and or gather may as well use leves on something

Yeah, the large scale leves are pretty worthless. Anyone with any smarts wouldn't waste 10 leves on it. You could only (at best) complete 9 of them for basically a pittance in experience points which wouldn't even net you a single level on any combat job. Crafting leves are slightly better, but you're still better off crafting HQ regular leves and GC hand-ins for experience since there's fewer items required, and the XP per item is significantly higher.

I think they're just there to trick unwary players into wasting all their levequests.

A trick? Some people and their crazy assumptions... It's not meant to give optimal XP, it's meant to cater to players like myself who were capped on leves for over a year because they don't level DoH/L and because leves are ass for levelling DoW/M classes. I literally never touched my leve quests after level 15, that's why these exist and I used them from 59-60 and it did help quite a bit. I can't stand the Library so it eased that grind.

teasures in large leves also give more of those useless vilekins...
