    Leves vs Large Scale Leves

    Can someone explain this to me? I feel like I'm missing something.

    Normal Leves for my miner at 56 give:

    168,399 exp (assuming I get the bonuses) x1 allowance

    Large Scale Leves at the same level, and assuming I get the bonuses give:

    252,599 x10 allowances

    So why would I ever waste 10 allowances on that when 10 normal leves will give me: 1,683,990 exp ?

    I heard about the amber thing I guess, but non appeared/dropped and the only thing I can see that I can trade amber for is dumb accessories. I have to be missing something.

    the large scale levels for for people with leves to burn and not enough time. I agree they are pointless for most.

    I'm confused on why you are using leves at all. Collectables are definitely the way to go. a lvl every 2-3 hours and you only have to hit the nodes at thier specified times.

    Gathering Leves supplement Collectibles quite nicely.

    10, 12, 2 leaves quite a few game hours before 10 rolls around again. That happens to be a little more than enough time to do two Botany and two Mining Leves.

    Just stay away from the Large Scale Leves, they're junk. Twice the work, twice the reward, for ten times the Leve Allowances.

    It's not even twice, it's 1.5x the nodes and 1.5x the exp.

    What I always advise is saving leve allowance for leveling crafting classes, you do not need to waste leves on gathering classes. You do not even need to waste leves on DoW/DoM classes either as fates and dungeons are better. If you have zero intention to ever level a crafting class then sure leves help supplement exp from gathering but if plan to have any crafting classes...use them on those. As for temple/large leves they are not worth using up so much leve allowances in my opinion.

    Crafting = Leves and provisionals (if out of leves then beastman tribe plus making stuff for selling)
    Gathering = Nodes/fish (grinding for selling), collectables and provisionals
    DoW/DoM = Fates, story quests and dungeons, hunting logs and challenges

    That's how I tend to level mine.

    Leves are great for gathering classes if you know what you're doing, just not the temple leves. Especially with the +50% bonus exp scripts, it's nice having 8 nodes with 6 swings each plopped in a cluster for you.
