No EXP parties, please.
I would prefer an instanced area that allows you to solo if you would like but also adapts to how many people join. So 2,4,6,8,10,12 etc parties could join and you could grind mobs to level. This would be better imo because fates would have less people in them making them more fun but it wouldn't effect the normal world mobs for the people who like them as they are.
U can always grind mobs with ur fate pt while waiting for fate to pop.
Bad xp is better than none, and prevents u from getting bored to death.
Aren't exp parties the best exp/hour method?
You can't even complain that they're not viable.
Anything but FATEs. FATE has to be one of the most boring things I've ever done in an MMO. And I've played a lot of MMOs over the years.
We all know we CAN do other things than FATE. But it doesn't help FATE stands the fastest route to level cap.
What we suffer is "the curse of knowledge". For new people, most of the dungeons after level 24 is considered "intense". For us, we just don't understand why newbies do not "get the mechanic" when everything is spelled out for you right in front of your screen... For them Brayflox is HARD ("you want me to Esuna all of you? move out of the way? and cure three people???), Sunken Temple is "ZOMG WTF was that", Cutter's Cry was "intense" and Titan "baby trial" was "fck this, I swear I ran and out of the train track from hell".
You can already team up with players and fight open world mobs for abysmally slow EXP. There's your FFXI experience.
Actually, if you get a full party and kill things at least 5 levels higher than yourselves, the exp goes pretty quickly. Maybe not as quickly as fates, but definitely quicker than dungeon grinding. Just have to find the right spawn point (like in any other MMO). My FC actually did this for a while to level up alts.
