    I swear by queueing highest level dungeon after 60 to level up. This is because the runs are easy and there's no stress anyways in leveling dungeons. The music is great and teams vary in their differences and style and you get to meet more people than PotD queues where every three runs you see the same guy again also binge leveling in PotD. When your roulettes, weeklyies and dailies are done, queue highest level dungeon for exp and gear.

    As I am familiar with Diamond’s postings lately and commented in quite a few of their threads, I’m finding myself slightly agreeing with Leera. And since the topic is starting to go in this direction, might as well comment on it. True, Diamond has done quite a few inflammatory things on the forums and even more, from what I understand, on their server’s novice network. So it is true that they have built up quite a negative reputation, which isn’t helped by their mud-slinging that they throw back at other posters. But with that being said, it really has nothing to do with this thread. Reputation or no, there have been plenty of threads here started by someone that pass something off as fact when it may or may not be the case, depending on user experience.

    Maybe in their experience, PoTD is the best solution, especially if they are maining a DPS class and the queue times on their server is long. I do have to agree with other posts, though, that once you hit 60, PoTD is definitely not the best place to level, unless you’re trying to level while farming shards, aetherpool, or bags. Regardless of queue, unless it’s in excess of 30minutes, which is a ridiculous long wait time just to get in a dungeon, PoTD is perhaps the next best option outside of PvP runs, but even that has been nerfed.

    Tanks, especially, should not be using PoTD at 60+…hell, they really shouldn’t be using it just for leveling at all.

    This wasn’t a toxic topic. The information is wrong for the most part, but it’s not toxic, nor does it require toxic responses based solely on a user’s reputation. Correct them. Debate the information provided. But what I’m seeing is the same folks who are rallying against one user entering the topic and essentially sinking to their level just to get a shot in. If the user, Diamond in this case, decides to attack another user, then fine, go ahead and respond back. But I hadn’t seen any bad posts from Diamond yet – all I saw were other posters firing off inflammatory messages.

    How’s that old saying go? Don’t cast the first stone.

    There is something in POTD even after 60 - particularly if you don't have any roulettes left and you're a dps stuck with 30-40 minute queues. (surprisingly, you're not earning any XP when stuck in a queue). You can get it done 3-4 times in the space of an hour, and that's 2.1 million XP you wouldn't get sitting in a DF queue. I do it now and then when the queues are long and the mood stikes me. Sometimes I'll solo it, it takes longer but can be more interesting that way.

    I don't think EVERYTHING has to be the most efficient/per hour at all times, as long as you're having some fun its all good.

    My issue is long queue if not on a popular floor, then wipe to traps and no xp.

    Would be nice to be able to block threads (make them invisible) and not just the user who started them. There are a number of them that would hit that list day one.

    Relative to leveling it's so easy to level today it's pretty obvious some people just don't want to work at all to do it.

    Going into a topic like this to make fun of them or call them out just makes the outside observer (like myself) think of you (AxlStream more specifically) as the bad egg in the situation. So i recommend you (AxlStream more specifically) to familiarize yourself with where you are bringing your negativity,, it will make you look less foolish in the long-run. Cheers.
    From an outside perspective the one who is being toxic is you. You are calling someone out and berating them for a very minor comment and continue flaming them on the Official Forum. If you do not want to increase the toxicity in the community I would suggest not adding to it. Going as far to refer to them several times seems excessive, if we can all practice what you preach them we can start clearing out some of this toxicity.

    Except there are ways to change that.

    Daily HW hunts, while not tons of EXP, have a double benefit - small amount of EXP and Centurio Seals you can use for riding maps/glamour gears/minions/purchase of manuals to help upgrade gear a bit faster(believe it's the Mythic ones for SB gears - 4 per accessory upgrade item, 6 for non-belt/weapon left side). Combine that with the SB daily hunts(give much better EXP, and same seals), and you can get pretty decent EXP in a day(and gil...3-4 of the monsters give enough gil to cover the teleporting if you are going through the maps in a big circle without much switchbacking).

    There is also the beast tribes you can do for EXP(Kobold/Sahagin/Amalj'aa/Sylph for under 50, Vath/Vanu Vanu for 50-60, and Kojin for 60+).

    And as an absolute last resort...FATE farming.

    Think they're trying to make a new record for this thread alone.
