Sooo what about leveling a second class to 60?

[NefarioCall]

The decision to not have the lvl 50 dungeons give xp is stupid. lvl 50 dungeons make up the majority of the content.

This. FULLY THIS.
There's something like 35 dungeons to run at that level, which is more than enough to pick and choose and not have to constantly repeat one over and over again. It is more than enough to level additional jobs. They have got to fix this... at least at 3.1, although i would rather sooner.

I know they don't want people running this stuff to go to 60, but honestly, who cares? People will do what ever people are gonna do. This is not game breaking. Shit, if they gave 200k non roulette, and the library dungeon is still giving 500k, i don't even see how it is better xp per hour? It's not. It's just a good pad for the 50-55 range, which is not where the new dungeons are focused any way.

More over, the choice to start white shop gear at iLvL115, which is about equal to iLvL100 Blue gear breaks all the 50 dungeons for gear. What was so hard about compressing the iLvLs a little and starting it at say white 80 or 90? ... but i digress. Just put exp in there by 3.1 ... that includes Crystal Tower and Binding Coil.

wow some of you guys are tripping. leveling two jobs simultaneously, 55 and 56, grinding dungeon for 300-500k each run is pretty generous. at least on tank, it takes a good 4~ hrs per level with breaks in between with the insta-Qs.

Experience for Fates Level 51+ Needs to be adjusted to 35k Experience.
Experience for Fates Level 55+ Needs to be adjusted to 50k Experience.
Monsters in level 50 Dungeons need to reward 5k Experience a Kill.
Monsters in level 51-55 Dungeons need to reward 10k Experience a Kill.
Monsters in level 56-60 Dungeons need to reward 15k Experience a Kill.

>_> Dang, you want it real easy.

Then what is the point of doing them?

Lv 50 end-game dungeons not giving EXP is a temporary measure.

In my server didn't seem like anyone was farming fate... during the 22nd. I think making or joining a Fate Party is good cause a party shares mob kill exp so there is more xp then someone would get alone.

People aren't doing fates because it's not worth it right now for two reasons. First, you can get to 60 easily on one class just by finishing all the sidequests and maybe running a dungeon one or two extra times (I helped friends when they got to those dungeons so.). Second, there's so many people in those zones right now that fates get zerged, meaning they have more hp, meaning they take FOREVER. I went to a level 50 fate on the first day of EA and realised it wasn't worth standing there wailing on mobs for about 10-15 minutes for 20k exp.

I'm worried about it to.
I didn't even wanna do side quests but I need to in order to find currents and get more EXP for my main.
FATES don't work anymore. Leves are 10 a piece to that's steep...
FATES 14k a pop is sad, very sad. I had to literally think hard about what job I wanted to max first because of this.

All Fates don't give only 14k I've had a that did gave 14k, and others gave 22k 23k and so i think fates would still be good just if anyone would start making or joining fate parties again even if not in the area that long. could try to invite/join a PF or something, and the exp you also depend on what level you are compared to the fate

Give it some time. SE wants us to explore everything in Heavensward. If we didn't have these, people would FATE grind their way to 60, or spamming lv50 dungeons which are rushable in no time. Same as Ixali quest, they're giving 10k exp for 50+ DoH. They just probably will give them normal exp rates after a while. Also 3.0 didn't officially release yet (today \o/) and many people already reached 60. Maybe it's just an EA thing, or maybe until Alexander is released, who knows. Too early to say, but never too late to wonder and speculate.

[Onikimaru]

Since the launch of 2.0 the best way to level had always been FATEs, or dungeons which would be a bit slower, but a lot less boring. In addition to your first 50 kinda being handed to you with all of the quest rewards. Still, leveling another class wasn't too bad.

Now in 3.0 I'm already worried. My first 60 is obviously a breeze with all of these quests, but what happens when I want to level up another? So far the only things I see giving reasonable amounts of xp are duty roulettes, but that can only be done so much in a day. After that what is there to grind that gives good xp? FATEs are absolutely horrible now and so are dungeons.

Am I completely missing something obvious or is there no real non gated way of grinding another class up?

I think we should make an official thread about this.

Then what is the point of doing them?

tomes and daily roulette

[Rydia]

Can someone please explain to me how leveling a class from 50-60 in literally 3 days makes it hard for the next one to level up?
