EXP bonus UI

3% of 1500 XP is 45... >.>

I really don't think the food effects will go past 5% XP boost, MAYBE 10%.

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.

I guess I just haven't gotten to the insane xp part. I get what you're saying and based on what I've been told by others that part makes sense. I've been told 40+ is easy etc, am fully anticipating that. What I find most odd was just the other guy claiming that 30-50 can be done in a few hours, which I just can't fathom outside of leeching or PL'ing.

Aye'sa massah, I'sa make all da pine cones for you'sa.

Good.

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.

I'm not talking about a PL'd party (I absolutely will have no part in PL'ing or being PL'd) and I'm certainly not exaggerating. There are these things called EXP groups, and these called EXP chains. Learn them.

Yeah, that's what we needed.. 50% more XP per kill...

Whats 50% or 1000? oh yeah 500... 1500xp/kill..........

What that, like 80 kills from 49-50?

At I dunno lets say 5 kills a minute?..

WOO! I can get a Full level every 15 mins now!

I just find the irony in it essentially using the surplus design.

Don't forget food exp.

Err... You CAN get 50% more per kill, but there's still a cap on how much bonus EXP you get in the first place... So you won't be getting those 2000 EXP a kill for very long anyway... Unless they designed it very poorly indeed.

Or designed it for the: "BAAAAAW WHY CAN'T I GET OVER 2000 XP/KILL AT ALL LEVELS SE? THIS ISN'T HOW YOU DESIGN AN MMORPG" crowd that seems to get their way.
