    Low Lv Classes?

    How do low Lv classes lvl up now for casual players?

    I am having problems leveling now post 1.19. Before I would grind off of enemies 6 levels above me, and will kill about 3-4 in a row before a rest.
    Now I can only kill 1 lvl above me and will need to rest right after it. My lvl range is 10-16

    Leves run out quick

    shout for grind party. Leves now reset in 12 hours and are not lost if you don't use that, so you can accumulate it and do more when you want

    From reports on different sites, it seems that whacking on mobs one to three levels below you is the way to go when soloing at lower levels. You will generate similar (if not more) xp compared with pre-1.19. Other than that, partying is slowing becoming the mainstay of leveling for XIV, so you might do as Yuki suggested.

    You get a high lv friend to kill the mobs and you take the exp.

    I've noticed that you'll actually get about the same rate of exp from fighting normal within-your-level mobs as you would now from levequests. So is the advantage of levequests the loot only? Hmmmmm.

    The new system of leveling does kind of support groups. Leves going to 99 with getting 4 every 12 hours means people are gonna wanna spam leves. I'd try to get into a linkshell and find some lower level people, with 2 other people you could level all the way to 50 just doing leves.

    Once you get to around 35 though you might want to just party with people enjoy the new content they gave us which give us exp chains, if you didn't play xi you may be unfamiliar with chains, but the patch notes explains the xiv version of chains pretty well. That chain leveling will probably be better than anything else.

    This is absolutely not true at lower levels. I spent several hours trying to find mobs last night that gave decent SP solo. None of them did. Mobs 1-3 levels behind me gave around 100ish sp a pop and took almost a full minute to kill each, with 30s of rest between each battle. They pretty much turned combat into ffxi at low levels only even SLOWER, and it absolutely sucks

    Fights may not be slower, but the exp needed to level is drastically increased in XIV compared to XI.

    Even so, I like how it is now. You just have to change your tactics.
