    Idea: multiple Maxxed class bonus

    Okay I have an idea on how leveling multiple classes can be improved (Regardless if you think it's it at the right peed now, note that they will not stop adding classes at Ninja and eventually it will take months to get every job at the cap)

    For every class that is already at Level 50 add a 50% to the experience.

    As an example; say wanna level up ARC next, and have BLM at 50 you get the usual 50% bonus (Chain and rested bonus aside), but if you have WHM at 50 as well that bonus becomes 100% doubling our experience, adding a level 50 BRD makes it 150%, lever 50 MNK 200%, etc.

    Pros:
    1. Makes it easier to catch up by drastically shorting the time needed to grinding
    2. overworld mobs are actually worth grinding on
    Cons:
    1. Because of Pro point 1, actual experience with it will be diminished if you already have several jobs maxxed, meaning that new players that maxxed every job would be good at their main and maybe their first 2-3 alts but will suck at the last jobs they level up
    2. Also because of that entire dungeons may be skipped because players are at a point where they don;t have to do them outside of duty roulette, making the queue times for the dungeons as long they are for post 50 dungeons
    3. Some people will probably think it will result in being like this due to Con point 1 and Pro point 1:


    So what are your thoughts on this?

    It would take months to get all jobs to 50? Dear lord it hardly takes a few days to get to 50. So I'm just going to agree with your picture.

    Other than dungeon que times, it doesn't take long to max at all... If anything maybe have it at 100% boost after 3 50's... Anything more and it'll take way too little effort and as you said, no one will learn the class.

    I meant that in the context of this game eventually having an amount of jobs as XI if not more. hence the "eventually".

    Also, I got that picture from one of your posts

    What you suggest reminds me of ffxi abyssea leveling. 1-99 in a couple of hours, with countless people not knowing how to play their job.

    Yeah I'm well aware you lifted the picture from one of my posts I tend to use it shamingly often.

    In the context of the game there needs to be rewards for specializing instead of trying to force people to have everything leveled up for no reason other than utillity. People should be able to find a single job they love and never have to even worry about playing anything else.

    The game allows you to have options, it doesn't need to water down the accomplishment of having a max level anymore than it allready does. To be honest I've always been a staunch supporter of rewarding people for sticking to one thing instead of trying to reward joe everyman just so they can plunk that there are more tanks than there was last year on a graph.

    I think the relic quests help with that aspect (especially with nexus). There's also the vanity mounts for Tanks but that may promote class changing more than staying as a tank.

    I think The DoH however have it worse than combat classes since you need to get 4 classes at 50 for skills that are nessicary for HQ item making, 2 other classes for furniture and at least 7 out of 8 classes at 15 with the last one at 37 for both. Not to mention that post 15 they either need a gathering class or MB for certain mats

    Also there are some players that finshed all the content for one class, get bored and try up another class

    I like the idea, but tone down the additional exp. Maybe an additional 5-10% for each additional 50 after the first.

    How about more achievement rewards? We have a title reward for completing a discipline and a gear reward for completing all classes, but no reward for completing 3 classes or 6 classes.

    More exp we don't need. I'm sure 4 days after 2.4 patch we would see already lv 50 Ninjas.
