Sub class leveling content

geez even with all these things to do... Nobody wants to kill monsters anymore :/ they meant it to be this way. You get your main class then you will have to put some real work into your secondaries. If you dont feel like grinding then well... swiitch off. There is literally a dozen things you can do. Leves, gc leves, guildhests, hunting log, monster killing, fates, raids, boost... just to name 8~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I could walk every morning to get to work too, but guess what I drive my car! EVERYONE drives because it is the most efficient way to get there. Can you people please STOP saying go do other methods. You are missing the whole point of this thread.

I'm seeing lots of great ideas! I like that people want to see more balance among the different exp methods, and I agree with making certain quests repeatable once you change classes.
I'd also like to see a boost for the Hunt Log. All the tools are there to make this really fun. It just needs a little extra push. There are chain bonuses for killing mobs in succession, but its hardly worth it to keep going if you've completed that mob on your Hunt Log. They should increase the number of mobs you need to complete that Log entry and boost a mob's base exp. Killing a mob right now is pittance. But making it a little more worthwhile and keeping the chain going before your bonus from the Log kicks in would really make this a nice thing to do.
Then you can stop doing that at any point to go do a FATE when it pops up nearby, or take a break and go do some quests and leves, ect.

I thought what I'd do was, I'd pretend I was one of those deaf-mutes.

One great way to effectively level is to level more then one class at a time.

Someone said they are grinding mob's just to escape the fates. Ok then why not find a crafting class you need mat's for.

Leather and cloth crafting come to mind for me. You need hides, and wool and stuff like that. Use your lo level classes to grind out the mobs that drop that stuff.

This way leveling don't seem like such a waist of time.

given that most of the exp you gain via FATE grinds is actually from the fate reward and not the killed mobs, on atls FATEs do not fully utilize the +50% bonus exp on kills.

Dungeons and grinding mobs in an area with a lot in a light party or full party (and hitting up select FATEs in the area) can actually yield as good or better exp (need to ensure the hole group is gaining exp chains by mobs being at least lv of highest level in group). Dungeons are fast and near instant queue if you use your friends and FC to fill 3 or 4 of the spots.

Fates aren't really fun atm because you do them with like 200 people. Yesterday I did a couple of lower level fates with only a handful of people and it was enjoyable again. I do not mind slow leveling for later classes or else i would be max level too fast. As long as it is enjoyable.

no it is not...if they make dungeons/fates/open world grinding all equal... i would be very happy camper

This would be amazing. Giving players multiple EFFICIENT ways to level is just what MMO's need these days. I am sure it would be tough for SE to get it just right though. I can't see them doing this. *sigh*

I actually like the fact that you can't level all jobs to cap in the week or so it takes to level your first. If it was just as easy to level subsequent classes, you'd have folks whining having everything capped in about 2 months with nothing to do.

THIS.... on a new server a few days into launch there are already plenty of level 50s.. So a week to hit 50. If they made it that easy for ALL you other classes at well, you'd have plenty of people with all their classes maxxed in a couple of months. Thats not exactly a good thing for longevity of an MMO. Like it or not, in order for an MMO to survive it has to have some sort of time sink at the beginning in order to have time for content to catch up to the speed levelers.
