8 hrs of sleep and a well balanced breakfast are important for a growing body! Can't just eat eat eat and not sleep, can you?

Only the weak sleep.

Whoa, that must give you so much more time for activities. Do you make pine cone birdhouses while the weak are passed out?

between the current high xp gains rested xp food giving xp everyone should have no problem hitting 50 in 20 mins.

This crap is getting ridiculous..

It's not over yet! There's still hope for a Mounted XP bonus.

Well he's already added a +Soulbind item, so I wouldn't be surprised in the least tbh.

And here I am having trouble getting more than two levels per weekend. What am I doing wrong, syntalixes?

Level 42 is prime levels for a tapers party! You actually get to fight (no PL for you!), and the xp rolls in like the ocean waves.

[Phobos]

Exactly.

Crafting may be the only thing that needs an EXP boost, for everything else the EXP rate is ridiculous between 30~50 where we have a reversed leveling curve which is going to have to be fixed sooner or later by adjusting the specific EXP rate between 30~50 because it sure as hell won't be healthy once the cap increases. (I don't mind it taking only a day or two to get 1~20 or 20~30, but it sure as hell should take a lot longer than a matter of hours to get 30~50 in any setting.)

Though I haven't been able to do this yet, it sounds reasonable. I'm curious, though, what did the guy do that got from 30-50 "in a few hours", apparently specifically relating to the 30-42 part of that? Is it just assumed everyone gets PL'd or was that post just some extreme exaggeration? If so I'm sure the rested exp will do nothing for that anyway as it applies to leves.

Personally guardian's favor is doing a lot more for me than I'm guessing rested exp will, but I'm curious how to get this crazy exp that seems to elude me. My last party I went from 30-35 "in a few hours" which seemed quite reasonable at the time. We were killing fairly quickly, but as you can see we got 15 levels short of the norm apparently.

Sorry, I just seem to be having a normal leveling curve (getting more time-consuming as the levels progress) so I'm very curious how others are having a different experience, or if it's just exaggerated nonsense about getting PL'd which won't happen to everyone every time.

If you are sitting around level 35, you'll have to grind a bit until level 37. Once you hit 37 you can switch to the level 40 grand company leves. These are solo only and you'll get roughly 10k xp per 15 minute leve. Once you get to level 40, you can switch to doing stronghold parties (SH parties for short). There is one in Coerthas which is a better xp imho, and there is one in Thanalan which is lower XP but you also get ifrit tapers as drops. Stocking up on tapers will help you immensely at endgame, since you will be able to do lots of ifrit runs right off the bat.

If you run SH parties you can get 40 -50 in a matter of hours with normal play. No PL, no exploits, no specific team setup.
