Double Experience for each level 60.

[Nektulos-Tuor]

Why should you be rewarded for putting in less effort?

Getting a level 60 is effort. Getting another 60 for 100% more experience is less effort yes, but its still effort. Getting another one for more experience is less effort, yes. However its still effort. Your defending something mindless, because there is a huge set of skills you need to learn and the ability to play a class well depends on max level. You don't really learn that well doing low level dungeons and spamming aoes in fates. Which is what pretty much everyone does. The class quests alone do well in teaching you how to use abilities themselves. This does nothing but takes away monotony.

No

I spend that time learning the class. If you want to zerg it and get to max as fast as possible without knowing what you're doing, then I guess mindless FATE grinding is your punishment for that.

Just because you CAN have all classes doesn't mean you NEED to. For example, I'm probably never going to touch MNK again until I've literally done everything else in game. If you're a completionist? Then just hit that FATE train and get your max level then store that weapon away or whatever.

Ok, but that takes even more time. That would take months if you avoid doing fates. That is your choice. However, there is no reason to punish everyone else for that. What is the reason for making someone who already got to 60, or 60 again, make them do the same fates and dungeons again with the same effort. Especially someone who is trying to find the class they like or want to play the most.

I am talking about what 90% of everyone smart does. They figure out that level 15-50 that fates are the best and only way to level at a fun rate.
