Leveling up makes me want to quit.

[Twilite]

Yo, dude. Just shut up. World of Warcraft level is actually doable without the need to pay. Go freaking read the OP again because you need to since you can't understand between lines. Lalatroll.

WoW isn't the only game that has that.

You play on balmung.. the worst time to queue for anything there is early in the morning(and NA data center in general as the majority NA players are evening/night players). Half the damn server is AFK otherwise. Evenings are best for fates, I'm not kidding. I was just there last month FOR and ENTIRE month. Two weeks tops to get WHM from 1 to 50, including breaks in between. If I didn't take breaks, probably just under 5 days.

It doesn't matter if people FATE with you or not so complaining about no one else FATEing isn't an excuse really. Even if you are the only one doing a FATE you can clear them easy. And if no one else is doing FATEs it means that the FATEs have gotten easier to complete. Go to the areas you listed and do the FATEs alone if leveling up alts means so much to you. If you've given up on Leveling roulette because of the so called "2 hour queues", then you can use your Chocobo as well and clearing FATEs will be extremely easy. Even boss FATEs as a DPS with a Chocobo out will take 3-7 minutes solo.

I highly doubt the Duty queues are as bad as you say it is. Just queue up and alt tab with game sound on if you hate waiting around for a pop. Even if it takes 2 hours to get into a dungeon, it's very easy to level up once thanks to killing mobs in dungeons and close to once more with Duty Roulette bonus. Clear some challenge logs as well and you will gain 2-3 levels from 1 dungeon run.

Well whatever other game you can do that, I do not know them. Just know FFXI WoW and this.

But I will try to see if I can move my game time to the time you said. But if you don't mind me asking, reason you changes of server?

[Twilite]

I moved because balmung isn't what I thought it would be, also wanted to keep my word to someone on phoenix that I was returning. It works for me because I am a nightshift worker. EU players are online when I am due to timezones basically being flipped. Was impossible to do anything with anyone on NA servers.

I call BS on leveling roulette queue taking 2 hours. Therefore, if we use the Internet's 3rd Law, the entire rest of the post is BS as well.

The roulettes are actually broken right now.

Yo fate aint easy to solo at all. And you cant use chocobo if you try to queue for roulette at same time since that is where good exp is. So id like to know what game you play because this is far to be same game considering half the fate in zones are nm fate!

poof

Leveling an alt is not that difficult. I did it without leves on just challenge log, hunting log, roulettes, and fates. There's also daily beast tribe quests. I only did around 1 dungeon per level because as a DPS I hated the long queues. Every week the challenge log resets. It provides a ton of experience if you complete every objective in it that rewards experience. Also make sure you always have food active for the experience bonus.Just buy the cheapest food available. The food does not have to have stats that benefit your class as you're only using for the exp bonus. I soloed fates while waiting on queues, unless I still had challenge log and hunt log stuff to do, then I did those while waiting instead. The harder ones can't be soloed, but there are always solo-able fates for every level. You'll level to the early 50s quick, and then can start North Thanalan fates. North Thanalan is always an active site for fates due to others leveling. If you want to avoid queues you can also start a party finder requesting 3 others that want to help you level and see how that goes. The more you have in party the faster the queues should pop.

I started doing fates in the earlier 40s in North Thanalan all the way to 50.

Going to say I solo FATE events all the time, they're really not that complicated and you can reset aggro if you ended up pulling too many mobs.

Basically this. Like I said earlier, if you don't catch a FATE too late, you can find the direction the new enemies spawn from, go to the other side, and pull them one by one. You can complete the FATEs solo as such. Also, make sure your gear is up to snuff. Even if you're to level, if your gear is all off by five or more levels, you're in trouble. If your info on the Lodestone is still correct, your gear is out by ten levels.

Some players in our FC were new to the game (and yes do work) and actually have a class to 60, so like within a month or so.
You really just have to put some effort into it, it's a mmo after all. It is not like you have it harder then all of those that had all classes leveled already.
There are many various ways to level, blowing off all your leves is not the way to go.
Also i though Balmung was a populated server? Granted at certain times some areas are empty on Levi, but overall fairly active.
Also are you not in a FC? Like so members can help you out leveling? Sorry if you mentioned if you were or not, did not feel like reading several pages at 2am, haha

Oh and i have never been in any groups at all for fates, leveled 4 classes from 56-60 in hinterlands mostly, and some dungeons of course.
If only my chocobo could heal even in healer stance....
