Suggestion: Bed Bonus ~ Direct EXP

[Denmo]

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

Ah.

Then all OP need do is get his war/magic classes to 50. Problem solved.

Well its not so much that it locks you still see the (+50%) annotation when you do kill mobs ect. Its that classes/jobs at 50 don't gain any of that xp there for not cutting into the bonus

Bah, I typed up a long ass response to this and my browser ate it.

Other games don't have the "level all classes on one character" mechanic - and Guardian's Favour, while terrible in every way comparatively, let you choose when you wanted to apply it - so this is a problem unique to XIV, you can't really bring other games into the picture.

It's not the end of the world if my PGL or ARC gets some bonus XP, true, especially given the way mob XP calc works to get everyone in a sufficiently long PT within a level of each other, but I'd much prefer to save up my rested XP for a long Mining session rather than feeling like I'm wasting it on DoW or feel like I have to do a bunch of Mining leves before my LS goes XPing.

I'm not sure who would be hurt by a rested XP toggle or why anybody could possibly even think of getting butthurt about this other than 'it's the XIV forums, someone has to argue', really.

Many of us EXP jobs and have bed bonus but don't have the time to craft or gatherer cus were in a exp party

Really. Welcome to the FFXIV forum community.

Could use a crafting manual to boost your craft exp gains on top of the rested bonus and push the cap by doing local leves. This can help you maintain as much of the rested bonus as possible.

Could also solo leves to 50 if you'd rather not sit in Ul'dah.

Just...throwing those out there.

Nope. TOGGLE. THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS!

There's something different with you o.O

Its really easy feature to add in. Toggle it on/off by pretending that those jobs are level 50. So that to disable the EXP bonus. Same nearly has all programing drop for an option like that.

Be happy you're getting a bonus. If you don't want bonus on a job (why the hell wouldn't you), then don't play that job. People call me a naysayer, but really, this is one of the dumbest ideas i've ever heard. Just use the bonus up on what you want to use it on.

I don't care if you could add it by staring at the screen and blinking. It's not needed. A lot of people end up being in bonus all the time because they don't EXP all the time, so it's not like they're going to run out if they -GASP!- get EXTRA EXP on a job that isn't their priority!

It saves you time no matter what job gets it. Thus it's silly and pointless.
