Leveling to 50 question.

[KalaElizabeth]

How long does it usually take to lvl to 50, obvioualy I know everyone is different but I'm curious how long its been taking everyone and how is the best way to do it ? And is leveling another class also necessary ?

It shouldn't take too long. Dungeons give loads of EXP along with guildhests and leve quests, and fates are still an option too. Leveling other classes (Which are related to your main class) grants you cross-class skills which will immensely assist you.

took me 4 weeks to get my first 50, that was mainly following the storyline a bit and dungeon-grinding before the dungeon boosts, if i only bought it today probably 2 weeks now, but if i just started a fresh character with all the things i already know then probably a week

What's the fastest way to grind to 50 with minimal effort? Running about gathering bags of crap and counting planks is kind of getting me down, so I figure maybe it'd be more fun just zooming upward collecting more of the square icobs that go in my hotbar. Sone of them have cool pictures even if I don't know what they're for.

I'm currently in Moby Dick Bay Drydocks. Is there a dungeon near there?

Ps I've only got 3 weeks of gametime left before I finish, so I'd like to get to 50 before that.

Since you two are tanks you can get a lot of XP running both Duty Roulette and whatever the highest level dungeon you have available is as tanks usually have fast queue times. Duty roulette has the added benefit of giving you some nice cash rewards if your role is in demand. Compliment this with your storyline quests and you can get to level cap pretty quickly. You can probably get to level cap in 3 weeks to a month playing casually.

You will want to level other classes for abilities as mentioned, but you will also want to do it so that you can unlock your job which provides new abilities and a significant performance/stat boost.

You start running dungeons at level 15, from then on it will be fast to gain EXP, especially that you are a tank and tanks almost insta-queue for dungeons.

I have to admit that so far I'm not feeling the tankiness, tbh. Shouldn't I have some sort of distance pull ability? I'm well up for taking aggro for the team, but the group things i've been in so far, mobs aren't sticking to me particularly even though I'm spamming a wide range of my attacks. I'm weilding an axe.

You get more abilities later on that allow you to increase your hate. Early on, there's only 1 maybe 2 abilities if you're not using cross-class abilites. Keep in mind that if you are losing hate all the time, then you need to use your hate increasing abilities more often and that not all your attacks increase your hate, only some of them. Look at the ability description to see which ones do.

DPS have a habit of being able to grab hate if from you if you're not careful. I've had tanks tell me to slow my dps down (???) because I kept grabbing hate from them.

You get a pull ability from your level 15 class quest.
