    For a lvl45+ character these mobs are already easy when fighting solo.
    Fighting them with a group is even easier and makes EXP parties boring and unrewarding.

    Please add real high level mobs or increase the level of existing mobs up to at least level 60.
    This would make the world more interesting and even give high level players something to be warry about.

    It would also enable players to form EXP parties up to lvl50 and really play together instead of FATE grinding in fake groups where it doesn't really matter what you do.
    FATE rewards need to be lowered anyway.
    I doubt they will ever bother putting high level mobs in existing zones (especially close to the cities), as it would disuade new players and make things mroe difficult for them. It's clear the new expansion will be adding new areas and thus new, higher leveled mobs to go with them.

    Also, simply adding higher level mobs to existing area so that "players could form exp parties" wouldn't work anyway, as the game is specifically designed to not permit this form of gameplay - enemies even ten levels higher than you will only give the same amount of exp as an enemy at your same level. Yoshi stated this way back during development that he wanted to move players away from 'exp parties' and towards 'content-based exp', which is why we have FATES and levequests. Face it, old style FFXI exp parties are a thing of the past.
