Suggestion: Bed Bonus ~ Direct EXP

[Esk]

Hmm... Maybe a simpler way would be that when you sleep you charge a ring (for example).
When equipped it gives you your rested bonus, if not well your normal.
losing 1 accessory slot on a class you levelling isn't going to kill people.

Just a thought though.

This would be neat too!

No I can't agree with this idea, rested exp is a bonus exp not a way to lvl up your dow/dom/doh/dol. Next you will be asking to get reseted bonus against EVERY class, its ridiculous it has to stop somewhere and I think its fine as it is.

Wouldnt be a very good idea to turn it into direct exp. Someone could just quit the game for a year and come back to maxed jobs.

No one is saying that, that is completely the wrong idea to take from what the OP Suggested.

Please read what is being suggested...

Bed Bonus has a Cap of like 20k-40k EXP that alone cant max your jobs out. Plus quitting the game would just turn your character off unless you want to pay Square Enix a year without playing the game.

Jesus christ a ring... Really...

I dont see why people are butthurt about having a toggle... It doesnt affect anything in any way... Doesnt mess with any balance. It just lets you decide when you want to use your rested exp bonus or not. Unlike WoW where you only have the one class so the rested EXP has to go to that regardless. Whats so bad with having an option when to use your rested exp up? It still caps out at the same amount. I would like the option of toggling it on or off.

[AlexNiculaie]

Nothing butthurt about it. People who don't like it, don't like it. no need to veer off into extreme nonsense. I don't see a need for the toggle. It is a bonus after all. However, if enough people whined about it causing SE to add it, it won't bother me, just seem like an unnecessary change.

My thoughts exactly.

After all, if you were really focused on being a crafter/gatherer, that's what you'd be doing the moment you got out of bed.

If you aren't, you still have the training manuals.


A side question though, and forgive me for sounding like a noob; If you gain exp off mobs while capped at 50, does that decrease your rested bonus? (If not, the answer to OP's problem is simple)

It doesn't. Once at 50 your rested bonus locks.
