    About Large Scale Temple Leves

    I think these need to be adjusted. I just tried a fieldcraft one for the first time today.

    1. It seems pretty bland that they're exactly the same as regular fieldcraft leves, just a bit longer. (Ex. Gather 50 x instead of 40.)

    2. The reward doesn't justify the cost. One of them actually rewarded less, with bonus, than a regular fieldcraft leve with a bonus. This should never happen.
    LS w/ bonus: 94,000 (difficulty, speed of completion)
    Regular w/ bonus: 97,000 (difficulty, speed of completion, +25%)

    I'm sure there was already another thread about this, but they focused on battlecraft I believe. But the very fact that a 1 allowance leve awarded 3000exp more than a 10 allowance leve is a clear sign something isn't right.

    haven't even tried them but that's disappointing to hear. though not exactly a big surprise.

    Exactly how I felt after I turned in a 10 Leve one. My XP bar barely moved. It wasn't challenging at all either.

    Has anyone tried these leves in groups, as they're apparently supposed to be played? Mayhap there's a bonus for parties?

    Fieldcraft leves are solo only, same goes for large scale.

    I did three battle (L) at level 59 over the weekend was pretty good EXP. The problem is that they give you a lump of EXP that isn't even all that great. You could do 10 single leves and get 2-3Xs as much exp. A single leve iirc was like 19kish and the (L) was around 90k, (L) leves should give double the amount that they currently give.

    The battlecraft ones are okay. The trade and field ones aren't worth it at all though.

    If you are short on time then it may be worth doing (L), but other than that (L)s are not worth doing even for the Amber. You can get 2-3 times more EXP doing single leves.

    I've said in other threads, I think these are better suited for just burning your leves when you're capped. I did a level 52 one with an fc mate just to check them out and yeah the xp wasn't good but we got 7k gil each for a 5 minute leve plus the hi cordial. Yeah that's a thing now lol. So I think they'd be good for making some quick cash but for xp stick regular ones.

    Oh and there's the amber you can trade in for stuff.

    This is all well and good, however, you should never get less experience doing a large scale than a regular one, even if the item/gil rewards are slightly better.
