    300-375k exp/hr an addition to the fate hub there an extra 100k exp you can reach level 50 in 3-5hours with a great party. I will be posting other hub locations and their exp rates but there are places where you can get 1-20 in 2hours 20-30 2hours 30-40 4hours. 40-50 3-5hours.
    Congratulations, you found something more boring than fate grinding! Grinding trash mobs that pose zero threat and have no special attacks and die in 2 seconds.

    Actually, if you choose mobs that are high enough level (i.e. actually challenge yourselves) there is work involved to maintain fast chains, and they won't be dropping in 2 seconds. There is also no downtime, unlike FATE's, so you're not going to spend 75% of your time staring at the map waiting for them to pop.

    With a good group you should be constantly busy.

    Aside from that I'm not sure what you hoped to achieve by picking on someone else's play style.

    He isn't wrong if you kill a mob 4+ levels higher than you, you tend to get a huge experience amount before bonuses applied. My FC already decided the best power level method would be to pull a group, lowbie aoe them, then aoe them dead with the highbie.

    Likewise in 1.0 a good leveling method was exactly what the Doctor is posting about and I know it works in 2.0, it is just a matter of finding good spots and a good party. Even if you don't maintain chain fully it still stays better than fate grinding in most areas.

    I want to know because:
    • on PS3 the big Fates are almost impossible, you can't even target the monster
    • DF can take too much time and the success/failure is too uncertain depending on the people you get matched with

    I would like the kind of "burn" party we had in 1.0 where we just gather 8 people, make a camp, pull and slaughter things

    Please let us know if you have good spot for 40-50 ^^

    Yes PS3 fates are awful. I actually had to grind fates on my PC instead... to get level 50. BTW this is for my second class. Not my main.

    I can't stop looking at that fat cat! I'm sorry. I know this is so off topic, but...the "Fat Cat"!

    I consider the best way to level is to level doing something that is enjoyable even though it's slower. Your way may certainly be the fastest way to level.
