    Since you asked it in an odd manner, I'm only guessing at what you're wanting to know here. It is my understanding that the armory bonus is not tied to your first class, but is tied to your highest level class, with ALL classes that are a lower level, including your starting class, receiving the exp bonus. Say you level pugilist to 15, then switch to rouge/ninja and level that to 60. Your pugilist will receive the same exp boost as any class you play. Again, the system is NOT tied to what class you first play as. The first class you play as only affects which city state you start out in, and absolutely nothing more.....

    Sorry for the odd wording - blame it on me writing this at 1AM my time and trying to meet the 1000 character limit.

    This is what I was confused about. I thought the Armoury bonus applied to every class other than your first, not every class at a lower level than your highest one. Since originally the first class I chose was my first 50, I never paid much attention to it before. Thank you for explaining that, though. ^^;

    Just glad I can help. Also, don't worry about that character limit for forum posts. It disappears when you edit your post, so the common thing to do is to type your post out fully, copy it, then put a placeholder, (mine is "TO BE EDITED MOMENTARILY"), and simply replace that placeholder with your full post when you edit it.....

    Buy a stack of Lowland Grapes for 396 gil from a NPC for a constant +5% exp boost

    Many players are all 60's or have alternative characters. You will have no issue finding things to grind experience from. The only problem is if an attitude of wanting everything handed to you is present. But if you are cool with working at it then have fun ^^

    I currently have 3 jobs at 60 and I level VERY casually. I wouldn't worry too much about exp gains, you'll be fine.

    Levelling your first class even with MSQ I think actually takes longer than any of the classes after it. If you have food, an fc for the exp buff, and have some rested exp saved up, you can go from 1-50 in a single weekend if you really wanted. 50-60 was made faster with 3.1 now that the heavensward dungeons give better exp, not sure how long they would take now but it took me a week on smn waiting on dps queues (everything else was spread out just doing my roulettes so I cant use them to judge time taken).

    You only need to get to 10 to switch to rogue (providing you start in limsa, otherwise you'll have to reach it first obviously) and whatever your highest class is is the one that wont have the armory bonus. Anything lower lvl will get increased exp. Just start as pugilist, get it to 15 so you have that ready to unlock ninja later, then go to limsa and unlock rogue.

    Leveling is fairly easy if you fate/dungeon farm. I leveled Dragoon from 35 to 50 after a 7-10 hour marathon of fates. What? Don't look at me like that. It was fun! :|

    I personally started with MRD, got it to 20-something, dabbled a bit in PGL, and then worked on DRG for the rest of MSQ in ARR.
    It wasn't particularly bad, except DPS queues were slow sometimes.

    exp doesnt become an issue until you start levelling your 4th or 5th class to 50, and HW is always gonna be a grind. When I was on trial period i got 8 of the 9 classes to 20 within about 10 days, which is when I bought the game.
