How can people spend hours here in N.Thanalan?

[Eidolon]

>> Netflix.
>> Other games.
>> Cupcakes.

Seriously. <.< >.>

Botting lets people do other things while the game plays itself. Always remember the path of least resistance.

I can netflix and fate grind at the same time, same with gathering.

1. Join a party
2. Turn off brain
3. Profit

The XP is worth it...it is really fast to level up here...I do it between every dungeon que...it is fabulous...just doesn't feel like I am playing the expansion during that time...oh well, that is the life for leveling the fastest.

See, my secret to levelling in N. Thanalan is not doing it.

It's funny how we've come full circle. First FATE grinding was the fastest way to level up in 2.0, then Square nerfed it while making dungeons more favorable to grind levels in, and now we're back to FATE grinding for post 50.

NT FATEs are just better than dungeons until Vault unlocks. It's the perfect storm ... compact area, great XP for your time, easy FATEs, high FATE spawn rate, two exceptionally high XP FATEs that can spawn, and everyone comes to NT so it goes even faster. The alternatives to NT grinding for leveling alts, as boring as it might be, are all either a bit slower (not something you want in a process that takes literally many days of time to get multiple jobs leveled) or arguably as boring (2 years later, I'd rather do NT FATEs than another Castrum or Praetorium run).
