So where's best place to level up fast cause this def taking long time yet want to hit 60 ASAP (with main story)

spam run The Aery until 57 while FATE grinding in Northern Than. If you have sidequest available that will work also but a little bit slower than FATES. Since they buffed the new FATES areas I hear people are running those now but I have not yet. I am doing fast enough with the method I am doing.

North than is old news. Churning mist is the new place to be.

For your first job you don't need to grind anything, just scoop up all the sidequests as you go through the main scenario. The sidequests come in waves, so keep checking back areas you've cleared and you'll find them populated with more quests again. The are enough quests to reach level 60.

For your other jobs, once you've run out of quests, just any combination of Fates, dungeons and leves that you like, whilst collecting weekly challenge log bonuses.

For your first job you shouldn't need to do any grinding. Just do MSQ and sidequests and you should hit 60 no problem. For your other jobs you can do dungeons or FATEs, since FATEs are now pretty good in the new zones. At 56 you can go to Churning Mists for FATEs. At least on my server there's always a huge group out there doing them starting at about 1 PM PST and usually starts disappearing around 10 PM to 12 AM PST (which is like NA primetime, roughly). There's also dungeons you can do, but it's roughly the same amount of time as FATEs.

So that's were the new spot is. have not tried it yet...thanks, I will have to check it. Hopefully there are tons of people there also.

I'm guessing you are on a second class because I'm a returning player at 32 in MSQ and I know I am going to need to drop back and level a second class already or waste a lot of exper going forward. I expect to be 52 or 53 before I even touch HW content and with MSQ, map unlock and the tuning, exploration content I will put Whm at 60 long before I am done.

Note: Map Unlock is HUGE exper. Or it was in ARR. Each time you `discover a new area`it`s a flat number according to level but when the entire zone is cleared it`s a 10X on that. It`s all scaled to level so a 59 character who held a portion of the map unexplored in each zone can then go through and get the area compiled bonus, wiping out most of the last level in short time. You do need to plan well in advance though.

It is not scaled to level.
Or well you get 4k more exp than at lvl 50

Lvl 49 to 50 You can get the entire level getting the map achievemetns
In the exp at most you get like 30-40k exp.
You needed 520000~exp 49 to 50
You need 3,8mil~ exp 59-60

Not scaled to level

Anymore advice ?

If you need to grind on your first main through heavensward you're doing it wrong. Do all the sidequests. Do your hunts. Do your daily roulettes. Are we bordering on the obvious soon?
