Request: More weekly leveling tools like WT

[anhaato]

I'd love it if we had the option to do more stuff in the style of WT to get levels over the week. It doesn't have to be the exact same type of tasks or requirements but if there was something in every end hub like that for example it would not only make leveling easier by giving us more xp gain options but it would also give us more reasons to go back to older end hubs other than Idyllshire. Personally I'd like it if this was treated like custom deliveries, with different role bonuses every week. Sure it might make tome farming a tad too easy, but hey, if crafters and gatherers get it, why can't battle classes? They could even cap it at 2 turn ins per week like deliveries if that's too much of an issue, or if doing 4+ per week sounds daunting.

Honestly, to me it just makes sense that the leveling process should have more tools available the higher level you get. A quickening leveling experience would be a good reward for getting through the story and leveling up, and it would be a fair bit less boring than spamming either fates or dungeons, or just doing dailies.

tl;dr it's a good system give us more pls

It gives the same EXP that a PvP roulette does each day and that's only 20 minutes of semi-effort at best.

[anhaato]

So if I'm following your logic, more xp options are bad because there's a daily that also gives a lot?

[Atelier-Bagur]

Honestly if so then it has to be like...a super small weekly thing. The last thing we need is strapping weeklies upon weeklies upon dailies upon dailies in FFXIV. Just look at the mess of WoW

It's just leveling though like it's completely optional, whether or not you do it has no bearing on your progress with whatever you're doing on your maxed out main(s). Like, plenty of people survive just fine if they miss a week of custom deliveries or a day of roulettes. Comparing it to wow is very apples to oranges considering how mandatory all of their timegated stuff is for ingame progress. And if 2 weekly xp gain options are too much then why is 1 not?

WT is fine for the most part, but only having two tiers of "difficulty" (for lack of a better word) is getting worse as the number of additional expansions increases. It only offers duties at level 60 or below until you have a max level character, leaving players with two unsatisfactory choices:

1. Work through the next three expansions while levelling your jobs at pace with the quest level, with a dwindling chance of clearing WT goals "naturally" through things like levelling roulette or the level XX dungeon goals lining up with your MSQ.

2. Rush a job to level 90 while still in Stormblood/Shadowbringers MSQ. Unlock the higher rewards, but half the duties are now beyond your reach and some of the trial names are going to be extremely spoilery.


At absolute least, the basic version you have access to before reaching max level should cover up to level 70 as the player will reach Stormblood soon enough.

Ideally, they would add more grades of unlocks.

If you're unaware of it, might I introduce you to the Challenge Log?

If you are ... SE could pretty easily just add some more stuff to it. Or boost the XP from what's in there now; it's gotten pretty lackluster with recent scaling, at least above level 80.

... also, none of it is exactly needed. Everyone who went into Endwalker with 80s by now likely has every class they care about in the slightest to level 90. And some of us no-lifers (myself included) are starting to hit 90 on absolutely everything.

Is the endwalker COLLECTOR'S EDITION better or not

I think you're really overestimating how much people will rush jobs to 90.

On my main character, I went into EW with all 80s and I am levelling mainly through the daily levelling roulette, along with some specific runs of Babil and Vanaspati for glamour. I have three jobs at 90, two at 85, sage somewhere in the 70s, reaper untouched.

Meanwhile on an alt that was ready to play Endwalker MSQ, I have a few things around 85 and was leaving them hovering there until I unlocked Vanaspati and could hope to get it in roulettes or again deliberately for glamour. It seemed silly to push anything to 90 earlier than that.

I find "slow bonus" EXP from doing a small amount of things each week far more preferable to rushing everything to max level. Half a level of EXP towards a class I don't enjoy playing, without having to play it, is a welcome bonus.
