Now lets take grinding. If you grind for 36 hours straight, with a solid group and a good camp, you can make an easy 15k/hr. 15 * 36 = 540k sp every 36hrs. Grind > Leves, but only if you actually group up. If you solo grind, leves will be better, which is why no one grinds because no one parties to grind.
you're acting as though for that 36 hrs that the only thing they do is those few hours for grinding. i hate to tell you most of us leve link for the battleclasses for fighting and grind crafts for the time between those. with the massive head start you get with the few hr leve party and the sp earned in between leve linking easily out performs straight grinding.
