Leveling

[surrel]

Thanks for the reply. I've been seeing a lot about how Fates give out a whole whack of experience. Your take on hat?

FATEs give great exp if you can find them for around your level. However, I hate hunting them down. If you don't mind searching for them or hanging out in an are where a couple decent FATEs pop up, you can definitely get some good exp in.

I ran into a unique situation where 2 full days that I played I was unable to advance my main story and just ended up grinding for the fun of it.essentially this meant that I am now level 23 doing the level ~18 quests/fates. The quests don't give as much xp as my level ones would, but I can get through them fast. I know eventually it'll catch up to me, but for now it seems like leveling is going oddly quick and it's been really easy.

So my advice would simply just to follow your main story/class story and do all the quests in it's way, at the same time doing the hunting log and any FATES you get close to....

As for grinding fates and what level to do them, +/-2 levels seems to be the sweet spot, although if you are high DPS, you can get good XP with +3-6 level higher. I got gold during a ~25 FATE when I was 21 (said I wouldn't get full credit) and got more XP than I got getting a gold from one my level, so it's still worth it.
