Is Leve EXP Far Too Generous Now?

[ErryK]

leves seem fine to me. collectables would just be spammed if leves were low exp anyways so people would be able to get to 90 either way.

Why would you need to return when the summoning bell is right there by the leve counter and the MB is just a quick jog up the stairs?

gatherers gather outside of old sharlayan so they just return you to the closest settlement (aetheryte) instead of taking you all the way back to old sharlayan, but the issue is you're spending at least three teleports everytime you do a set of gatherer leves (once to old sharlayan, once to the region you're doing leves in and then once more to return to old sharlayan to receive the rewards for completion), it's a tad bit ridiculous it's been this way since heavensward.

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

well, the minimum amount of hand-ins for leves is actually five per level at lv80+ and with some of the mid-level leves giving a ridiculous amount of exp (eg. the saigaskin fending coat leve being better than both of the leves at level 86 for leatherworker) so it's no surprise it takes such a short amount of time but i would argue it's fast because there's 80 other levels to go through before you get to these.
