Power-leveling is absolutely BROKEN

[Jynx]

So to go from 1-50, the first cap an otherwise empty game, would take a dedicated player all of 48-50 hours.

Sound familiar?

I think your mistaking the 24hours in a day with how long people actually take to hit 50 in a PL party. when people take a "Day" to hit level cap in XIV that doesn't mean 24 hours.

*edit*

I would also like to know where you got that when the level cap was 50 that 5khr was "Great" exp.

Because unless your Japanese you weren't playing the game until the level cap was 75.
