Is Leve EXP Far Too Generous Now?

[Artemiz]

Nah. Could be easier.

Leveling 1-90 on all crafting is still a massive task.

Well to be fair it should take time, it has a large reward. I would argue that it's easier to go from 1 to 90 now than it was to go from 1 to 50 in ARR, significantly so.

Maybe it's too easy. Maybe it's not. Leves weren't made in mind with Penta melded crafting gear or with a mind to keep players away from Lv90 so it shouldn't be very challenging to begin with.

Well they are leveling tools they should help to get to level cap, the question is how much is too much.

you are probably just reaping the reward from having leveled and melded everything in the previous expansion, making crafting stuff from endwalker a cakewalk and therefor skews your perception of how fast leves help you level.

Without a doubt the gear made it easier but it used to take far more leves to level up. I didn't use food or upgrade my gear once and on the 80 durability stuff I ended with plenty of wiggle room in the form of durability and CP.

Even if you don't have penta melded gear, just hq facet no melds will be enough to easily get to 90 fast. Its to fast imo.

I agree, with simple scrip gear it would still be really easy.

leves are fine in terms of EXP
what leves need is a leve NPC in each area so you dont have to return to the main city to collect rewards for DoL

For Land I agree. I haven't done any gathering leves yet but the exp while out in the field seems ok.

They are fine although it can be disheartening for some max level a crafter and still not completing a completion list.
In general you have many ways to just power level crafter/gatherer such Grand Companies and Collectables or even the Firmament.

Leves are simple one of them and fast enough since you can craft near a MB/bell and just dump there

Yeah but, 3-4 items per level, with easy synths to boot...?

90 levels...

We already need a lot of exp just to get this far.

It's not that bad to be fair, you can quick synth to the mid 20's and then firmament all the way to 80. Gil can be an issue but in terms of time it's maybe 10-12 hours per crafter. Much faster than a combat job or gatherer. You will get bogged down on job quests if anything as manipulation is too good to pass up on.

No thanks tbh, Leves should be extremely good for exp considering they're gated by a limited amount as per the timer for resets, and leveling crafters by just grinding away would be absolutely boring, if Leves didn't give a lot of exp then collectibles would become the new king

Good exp for sure, I just think they have over done it this time.
