Where are the hardcoded (non-MB) gold "faucets" in FFXIV?

You never need to buy gear for your main class while leveling .

I actually wondered about this today. With all the xp buffs can't players out level the quests and dungeons for gear? I saw someone get three levels at once on a disciple of war. I am not sure how that happened, but I saw it happen for a couple others as well.

You can outlevel things by a lot, but if you do all sidequests in addition to the MSQ, the quests and dungeons won't outlevel your gear.

If you've outleveled the gear coming from quests as you work through the story, it doesn't really matter. You only really need the quest-level gear because you haven't unlocked any higher-level duties yet.

Going up three levels at once is probably due to a combination of Road to 70 boosts, maybe some challenge log bonuses, and having a nearly-full EXP bar - so they could get "two and a bit" levels' worth of EXP and go up three levels in terms of whole numbers.

I've had that happen to me. Road to 70, the XP boost accessories, food buff, rested XP and the Heat of Battle FC buff are wonderful things, especially when you're on a lowbie job.
