EXP bonus UI

[Zantetsuken]

SO I WILL ASK AGAIN

Why do we need rested exp?
"The effect of eating ingredient items (such as raw meat and fish, fruits, and other unprocessed foods) will be changed. Eating such items will only grant an experience point bonus."

I think the exp bonus for food is to make it more relevant to general play in the game. It's a minor increase, but its also enough to make people feel like they are missing out if they don't have food while leveling.

The rested EXP is just another way of closing the gap between casual and hardcore players. Like, FFXI's exp rings, Guardian's Favor, and the Fatigue system, it allows those who don't have much time to play to catch up to those who play constantly.

Also, I don't recall where I read this, but doesn't the rested EXP only work with guildleves?

If so, I don't know why anyone would be against it.. Its just the Guardian's Favor automated.
