This didnt use to be the case, as tanks always maxed out more than others. But I guess the trade off, is that if you come to the FATE late, tanks build up to gold much faster than DPS/healers. You could hit the last sliver of HP, and get gold in tank stance.
But at the end of the day, you do get less exp over all as a tank, and will fall behind any friends you're playing with. (And when youre the DPS, watch ur tank friends fall behind)
No idea how it works now, as it doesnt make sense now.


Its in the patch notes for when it changed. And for the reason he mentions. [sarcasm] For source, Ill link you to the lodestone, where you can find it. [/ sarcasm]
I've leveled every job to 80 and I can say with 100% certainty that the above is false. Tanks do NOT get less FATE Exp. That would be insanely stupid for SE to do.
