    Unfortunately it isn't at least not in the 1-20 regions.

    Grinding chains either solo or with a small party is defiently the way to go. Myself and a duo partner were doing Leves with as many stars as possible usually +3 or +4 last night and getting less than 1 extra mob worth of XP for completion.

    Leves seem pointless now and we are saving them for crafting. Maybe that changes at higher levels tho.

    Thankfully not! I just haven't been home yet. I could've sworn I typed "later" in my previous post...oh well.

    I don't mind doing mobs solo, though because I'm a LNC I don't really think I can handle chain mobs. I tried once already and failed miserably. I'd rather just be in active mode for 3 consecutive mobs, take a break, and then continue. It's worked so far. That, plus I can invoke my guardian's aspect for a leve, kill some of the objective targets and leave one left and just farm a few more mobs for whatever time I have left then kill the last one. That should work too, right?

    I'll wait for Robert's definitive answer. But 2 nights ago, I did 6 level 40 leves on Arc in the Black Shroud. I was level 40, and 1 star on all of them (the basic mobs were level 40, and the bosses were 2-3 levels above that). I used Guardian's Aspect on 4 of them. I was able to get a few Chain bonuses by killing grouped mobs quickly. And I ended up with 39,462 XP.

    I'm not sure if that's typical or not. But it's not bad.

    Of course, I also tried to solo a behest (suggested for level 45). It was in an area where there were plenty of level 45-47 mobs that aggro. I killed zero of the behest mobs, and I died 5 times. So, I can't say how much SP behest gives. Obviously.

    0:5 -- that's not a good K/D.
