First level cap rise predictions

Oh well, if that's true, then awesome. It's an old interview and I don't know if it's still on track, but one can hope.

Well, considering that a lot of Legacy members ( including myself but not currently using atm) have most to all battle/magic to 50. I think it's safe to say he is still going to do it.

Mid Novemeber, if there is class(es)/Job(s) coming in 2.1, it will most likely be said during the live letter (unless it's one of there Ninja content they don't want to be said XD).

Major steepening? No. Leveling should not be a massive grind. That'll just push people away.

1-50 should stay roughly the same, but levels 51+ should steepen the leveling curve personally.

I think this hits the nail on the head. It probably won't be as dramatic as FFXI (where the exp requirement per level something like tripled at 51) but I suspect it will start ramping up quite a bit faster, especially with a smaller number of levels added at once (5-10). I'd thoroughly expect 51-60 to take several times as long as 1-50 does.

Not as long as FFXI (mainly because mobs took longer to kill and the EXP was quite a ways for what you got), but if mobs generally take the same amount of time to kill, then the EXP in FFXI terms should stay roughly the same ( FFXIV lvl 50= 560k?) probably jump to 800k and then go up in 50-100k increments per level?
