Leveling multiple classes during MSQ?

[Jojoya]

So I’m currently leveling 3 classes, I’ve been rotating through all them as I do the MSQ. I was doing this because my first class got to level 40 before the MSQ even hit level 20. Now I’m on the level 30 MSQ and I have 2 classes at level 35, and one class at level 45.

With that said, people in my FC keep saying I should just level one class, is that right? I’m asking because if I did that i would get my first class to max level while the MSQ is still far from finished, but then I won’t have other classes leveled up high enough to even continue the MSQ. I would have to do run dungeons endlessly just to level up my second/third classes to get them high enough level to meet the MSQ required level.

Please don’t reply with “Play it your way”, my way of playing is efficiently, I find efficiency fun and interesting. Playing without a plan in place makes me nervous and takes away the fun.

Do what's fun to you.

That said, when you get to the higher levels of the MSQ (especially past 80 when extra XP bonuses drop off) you'll find it impossible to keep up all 3 without doing side content as you go. When I'm leveling a new alt, I usually stick to 2 jobs - a DPS for the solo parts and either tank or healer for the instanced content. That gives me enough of a buffer that I usually only need to do hunt bills on the side to get both to level cap right about the time I'm getting to the end of the main MSQ.

Another factor is how much you play daily. The more you play a day, the more side content you'll need to do since you don't get much advantage from the rested XP bonus.
