    The Best way to level and its NOT FATEs

    Find a good balance group with a healer and a tank and the rest high DD sources -
    - find a good hub location for fates in addition to large quantities of mobs at least 5 levels higher then

    Chain EXP grind like in FFXI - In the processing plant you can make about
    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.

    EXAMPLES - NOT PERFECT.

    FATEs also give you money and grand company seals (and sometimes extra goodies, depending on the FATE). I agree that it's not a perfect method of leveling up, but it has its perks that straight monster camping doesn't.

    In an MMO, effective time management has its own rewards, if you can power your way to 50 in one night, you can spend the rest of the time you would normally had on low lvl FATEs on more important things, farming, doing dungeons and other things that would yield a MUCH higher rewards than FATE grinding. The OP has a very good option given to ppl now that FCs can take advantage of.

    So basically you can go from 1 to 50 in 1 night?

    That's pretty broken.

    How does 350k XP/hour translate into 1-50 in one night?

    FATE grinding is far superior as you cannot rely on consistent spawns of mobs and you will always have to move every lvl or two to get the most out of it which can be downright time consuming.

    FATEs give consistent xp for anywhere from 10-20 levels without having to leave the zone.

    OP said "you can get 1-20 in 2hours 20-30 2hours 30-40 4hours. 40-50 3-5hours."

    Add up those times and you get 13 hours to level 50. I have a somewhat hard time believing that's actually true but never tried it so who knows.

    Really? I know for sure I've gotten 800+ much exp from random mobs. Exp ceiling? I don't think there is any such thing.

    Have you actually tried this with a low level character?

    I'm pretty sure when I joined a buddy where I was 20 and he was 1 and when we would kill stuff he got no xp at all because I was too high level.

    Group in an area with monsters a few levels higher than you so you don't have to leave right away
