Some of the things I see:
*Guardian's Favor gets used by a veeery casual player only doing leves, uses up 200. Logs off for a while.
*Others don't use Guardian's Favor, because grinding mobs is so much sexier... and usually more efficient.
*EXP Bonus isn't awarded upon logging in. It only accelerates the EXP you do gain (Guardian Favor, Treatise, etc.)
*EXP Bonus will have a limit on how much you can benefit from it. Guardian's Favor cap was 200. EXP Bonus may be 1.5 Levels worth based on percentage (get from Level 49 to 50, then switch to Level 1 Fisher and benefit halfway through to Level 2 Fisher, all Bonus EXP depleted).
*Anyone using Treatises may be able to save on seals or further accelerate themselves if seals stack.
*People who play more often to level will still advance at faster rates than someone who is logged off until their Bonus EXP is completely full and then plays.
*You aren't penalized for playing more. You just aren't rewarded.
*For level 50s to make this attractive, as someone said, make this apply to Spirit Bondage (with phantom tentacles).

I largely suspect the longer this post will be, the more likely it will be skipped. With that in mind, I will pay my tribute to the donkey knight gods here, because I know they are listening. All hail the donkey knights, for they shall liberate all you own and bring forth the era of the awesome ass. I shall also pay tribute to Fiona and Lann here by taking some debris and smashing it over a polar bear's head, as I know someone else is also reading.

These are some points that I foresee with the Rested EXP.
Holy crap, you...you actually get it. Can we be friends?
