    Possible to go from 35 to 45 in a day?

    So, I'm without internet, and I'm trying to decide if it worth driving home for the day, purely to try and finish the Lightning Returns event before it's gone for good. I'm level 35 on my Monk, and nothing even close to that.

    If you DO think its possible, how would I best do it? I'm still kind of a noob, so I don't know whether to spam dungeons, FATEs, quests, or even just trying to get combo-kills all day? Right now my story quests have me out at the Forgotten Springs, but the xp seems terribly slow.

    Any responses are appreciated!!!

    here are a few suggestions that may help speed up the process without doing just fate grinding.
    *note* it has been awhile since i have not received my 50% bonus while leveling so i may be off a little

    1. go to town and buy the cheapest food from the vendor(boiled egg?) and always keep them in use
    2. each dungeon that opens should be ran as soon as they are unlocked & ran at least once (you get the most exp while being @ the starting level)
    3. complete your hunting logs
    4. complete your GC logs
    5. pepper in some fates (always be in a party and run to the next before the one your on is finished if possible)
    6. do your guildhests once a piece for their bonus
    7. do your roulettes
    8. always log out in a sanctuary

    good luck and i hope you make it to 45 before the event is done
    whether or not its possible to do all of this in one day....? i guess anythings possible if you do little else but play this game between now & then.

    I suggest duty rolette , dungeons, and fates from Costa del Dol and Coertas. Good luck ^^

    1.You have the outspoken 'we're loving it' mob who are probably ignoring issues.
    2.In addition, there's the optimistic 'I'm having fun and waiting for more' group, who are willing to overlook some things and hope others are fixed soon.
    3.Then there's the 'I really want this to work, but it isn't' group, who see some faint promise in the game, but don't have a lot of faith that the developers will fix the large problems anytime soon.
    4.Lastly, there's the 'I dislike it, therefore no one can like it' group.

    I went 1-50 in 2 days for each of my classes. But back then fate parties were always abundant at every level.

    I just spammed dungeons.

    You get at least 30-50% of your level per run. (assuming you have the +50% bonus.)

    Just go to Dragonhead and find a fate party, you can get to 45 in less than a day if you spam fates there.

    I think what they mean to say is prob not...

    Dungeon que for DPS (we'll say 20 mins)+ random party so god knows if the tank will stay or just up and leave + time it takes for party to complete a dungeon (call it 50 mins?) + odds are they been playing the hell outta the game recently trying to get leveled up so no +50% bonus.

    OK so random numbers plus more random numbers. Lets say on a good day 2 hour per level. 10 levels... hope you got your coffee brewing >_^

    I highly doubt it mate. I spent most of yesterday(had the day off work) on my Scholar trying to get from 38 to 45. And when I say most of the day I mean all but like an hour or two at most.

    I hit 44 before I gave up for the day. I ran dungeons with FC mates that are geared out for end-game, did FATEs, did my roulettes, etc. Basically did everything I could to push as much xp as possible and still didn't quite make just 7 levels. I don't know if you could make 10 without having a higher level class already to get the extra xp bonus.

    Sadly, the gear all syncs to the max-stats for that level. In fact, people usually find they have an easier time doing the dungeons they are in (Pre-50) with non-50+ Gear on.

    Definitely possible. Just make sure you're running fates or some other exp method while waiting for queues on dungeons. Grab friends to fool that party to make it quicker.
