Leveling a DPS class could took a while, but its not that bad.

I suggest to do the following:
- New Beast Tribes (Gnath and Vanu) gives you alot of EXP within 30 minutes. The EXP reward is between 20% and 30% (depending on your current level).

- Hunting Licence could be a bit hard, but also a big EXP bonus. Do it with your chocobo and it should be done within 30 minutes or so. Or ask some high level friends to help you with high level enemies ^^. The total reward for all 3 licences are between 20% and 50% (depending on your current level).

- Duty Roulette Trial goes fast and has a descent EXP bonus (10% or so)

- Challenge Log is ok, but dont expect much. The EXP bonus wont increase with Level 50 or higher. That makes the bonus for any higher level a bit smaller.

- Heavensward-Dungeons are pretty nice, if you dont need to wait for 30 minutes. Every dungeon with your level will give you 30% of your total EXP for next level up. Especially from 59 to 60, you only need 3 runs through Gubal, which is awesome.


I dont suggest the following:

- FATEs are not worth it. It depends a lot of the current area and group. Its only recommended, if you have nothing else to do and/or need some crystals for your relic.

- Duty Roulette 50 and Leveling are also not recommended. You waste more time on those, trust me. Leveling is still recommended for leveling below 51. After that, you

- Side Quests. No. Just no. The reward is quite nothing. It gives you a small amount of EXP and its boring as hell.
