New story quests XP is insane... like... insane...

You cant, they are also gated behind main story. You need to reach Ishgard.

No, that's DRK/MCH/AST.

The Lv50 jobs are both in Ul'dah and can be picked up as soon as you reach that level. Likewise at Lv60 for GNB (in Gridania) and DNC (in Limsa).

Exactly what I am saying. I am only doing main quests and job quests and got to LV50+ before reaching story quests LV30

I know, and that's ok because the level is mostly irrelevant.

Thx for the experiment.

I would have appreciated the fast levelling speed as a new player because I did pick up multiple classes - they're all there to be tried out and with a story to be pursued for each one. I did want to try everything, and that's the concept the game is designed around.

It will be great for alts, too, especially if I'm starting a character with a specific job (or jobs) in mind that I like visually more than gameplay-wise.

I haven't done the msq revamp yet and I do believe there is such thing as too much xp, however I am also the sort of player who likes to try multiple classes.

Back when I was lvling this character I ended up switching classes a few times because I outlvled the msq by a pretty big chunk from doing whatever content I could find, and I did want to try out other classes. This happened long before I reached the end of ARR. I didn't mind it at all. I actually quite enjoyed that I could switch classes with ease, gain xp on them pretty quickly, and continue the msq with them if I wanted to.

I do want to want to point out to anyone who sees the forum account was created in 2014, I did first start playing the game back then but I got only to lvl 35 and stopped playing because I just didn't have the time for a second mmo. When I started again on this character I had forgotten most of my previous experiences so it was basically a brand new game to me, and this was during HW. It is this time period I am referring to in the above paragraph.

That's good to know but 50 is still too high XD
The only jobs that could benefit from this leveling right now are the ones starting at 30 (DRK/MCH/AST) that I cannot access.

Is it that much? I'm leveling a character for the last few weeks, and I'm a lvl 43 doing lv 40 maw, after doing most side quests in all maps. Granted this only changed a few days ago, bit I haven't felt that much difference.
Also if sidequests are not needed to level, that's awesome.
I enjoy doing them but sometimes it's too much and they're too boring or generic.

Yeah I would advise new players to just skip them all. I would even leave Levequest unlocks per region for a second/third job. Same for guildhest.
Also did 0 roulette so far...

I like this thread a lot better.

And cool the idea for the xp is keep new people subbing and wanting to continue moving through the remaining xpacs. Sounds like they might have accomplished that we'll have to wait and see.
