Stuck at 55 as DPS and yet POTD is BORING and lack of fate grind party :(

[Drakeos]

Yet right now trying to queue for Aery and been 50 mins wait and there is no fate grinding parties cause everyone doing POTD which bore the hell out of me and makes me fall asleep

People will always flock to the path of least resistance. just be happy there is something like potd in place to allow you to not have to wait on tanks.

Fates could definitely be scaled better for solo levelers though

You could do Frontlines as long as you're not a lazy leech who does nothing for free CO.

Frontlines is a blast if you put in effort.

[NorthernLadMSP]

That should say XP not CO (ugh phone autocorrect).

You can also pick up your daily HW hunts, and do them while you wait for queues. They're pretty decent EXP while waiting for your dungeon(s)

Some additional options for EXP:

- Challenge log; although weekly, provides a solid boost when coupled with dungeon runs.
- Frontlines; the actual best option post-60.
- Side-quests; Stormblood ones in particular offer 100,000+ EXP

Alternatively, you can try tossing up a PF yourself for a fate party. I find those have better luck sense there are bound to be others thinking the same as you, "Oh, guess no one's doing fates."

And while you do the HW hunts, pop in and visit the beast tribes. You can get a full level every couple of days with hunts and beast tribe quests alone, let alone the odd challenge log and FATE.

I do this every day. Have BRD to 70 already along with my PLD, and SAM is at 64. I do the ARR ones as well, though, for seals for maps plus doing the FATEs for those gets me a couple challenge log entries for FATEs done every week.

I would pick up a gathering class and gather until your duty finder pops. Even then listen to music or stream something to chill to.

You mentioned you were queueing for The Aery. While this is good if you want to dungeon grind, as a DPS you have to expand your options if you don't want a horrible wait. At 55, you should include Sohm Al and Dusk Vigil. You might also want to include the two fastest level 50 dungeons, but which are best escapes me right now.
