    i saw some interview thingie, where they said it won't give XP, since that would make ppl go back and do that, for easier XP. so they want ppl to go to HW content, to lv up.
    but i'm sure the pre-50 content will give xp, as before. but lv 50 dungeons never had any real XP, since the cap was 50 anyway.
    SB is based on lv difference between gear and mobs. your gear will loose durability by just healing out of combat, so it's not based on XP.

    maybe a sub patch like 3.01, but 1 month after 3.0 would be too early for a 3.1

    Regarding your EXP question:

    Yoshi during interviews have stated that the Main Story will have the EXP rewards implemented/adjusted for higher yields. This to me infers that you WILL be able to level up to 60 before you even step into Heavensward. If there IS a Level Cap break, I'm sure it will be tied to the Job Quest and not Ishgard, considering it wouldn't make sense to "increase your level" using the MSQ.
    ***
    I for one have 16 leves completed, 6 Beast Tribe Quests completed, and a couple 4X quests completed in my Quest Log to turn in for instant Level 51 when the expansion hits. However, if it doesn't work for whatever reason, I'll just discard the quests. No harm done preparing.

    It's been explicitly stated that there is no quest or mechanic to increase your level cap to 60, it is simply increased automatically if you have the expansion registered to your account. The only mention of older content not giving XP was with regards to the host of level 50 dungeons that we have as they feared many players would simply farm them to get to 60 instead of doing new content. They will give no XP rewards after 3.0 launches but this will be restored at some undefined point in time later on.

    The 2.x series MSQs will be giving new XP and loot rewards now though so it is expected that a new player will actually be around level 52 or so by the time they finish the 2.55 story (assuming they already had the expansion registered).

    Urrmmm. That post just says what others are saying about Alexander Hard coming 1 month later, which will be 3.05. 3.1 (with relic stuff and the 24 man raid etc.) will be 3 months after Heavensward.
