request for Exp reduce

[Sephrick]

The "grind to learn you role" is kind of a moot point with 1.20 and 1.21 coming.

How many of the level 50 players will know how to use the new combo system? How many will know how to play jobs?

Does anyone really suspect that the player base will say "well, they completely changed my main's abilities. I had better kill even match mobs for three months before I touch that Dark Moogle battle so I don't look like a noob"?

No one learns their role through exp parties. They only learn the basics of party mechanics. The more casual player will take longer to level and thus have more time to wrap their head around it. Those of us that are more seasoned gamers who might take significantly less time to level already get it - tanks tanks, DDs do damage, mages heal. And by 2.0 we'll be doing all of that in very different ways than we do now.
