DO NOT WAIT IDLE AT THE AETHERITE LOCATIONS! You should always be trying to earn EXP during the times and going to FATEs as they pop.

    If you are seriously not gaining at least one level per session, sometimes two or more, then you're doing something very wrong.
    Are you trying to make him hate the game and quit because FATE grinding at level 36 on your first job without the 50% XP bonus is a sure way to do it. Unless he doesn't mind leveling up at the expense of having fun of course.

    He wanted to know how he could get it done, I told him the surefire way to do so. But if he still has storyline quests to do, that should be first priority, as well as all quests around his level range. That will give him the most bang for his buck if he teleports around.

    He's got 11 levels to go, and a little under a month to hit 45 and do the last mission in it. Sometimes, you just stick your nose the the grind stone a while and get the rough stuff behind you.

    Otherwise, he can level at his leisure, knowing he's got until Feburary to get to level 45. No real excuse there. I'm lucky if I get a full two hours a day an I hit my first fifty not long ago. (Though I'm one of those odd ones that don't mind doing FATES, so long as you do something in between them.)

    FATE grinding makes me think they should offer a free 30 day subscription to Netflix along with the 30 free days of game time because that's the only way to make it remotely fun.

    Why should people have to level to 45 in order to get access to level 13 items?

    This exactly. Glad I'm not the only one seeing the big flaw in this whole matter.

    *shurg* Why should all event content and rewards be restricted to level 13?

    We don't know if the equipment gear is all restricted to the quest alone. We don't have the full event in front of us. Maybe the Lightening outfit comes out near the end to be purchasable through the Otherwordly items. We simply do not know. IF it doesn't. I can agree that they should be.

    I do not agree that the Lightning content be low level only because some people haven't leveled yet, that punishes high level players.
