    Why don't quests reset on class change?

    By all rights changing to a new class is changing to a new character. The only difference is you're doing it on the same name and model and you don't need to log out.

    SE have pretty much discouraged us from creating separate characters. With talk of having advanced jobs (Job + Job = Adv Job), an extra fee to have more than one slot on the same server and the fluidity of the system they have convincingly funneled most players onto one character.

    Therein lies the problem though. Once you run through all your quests on one class, you are left with slim pickings the next time around. Some dotted quests around the world, a few story quests and maybe even enough to get you to 15 (which takes no time anyway with Armory buff).

    Your options? Grind limited leves (6 per day), grind fates or grind dungeons. Dungeon queues are horrible as DPS and fate grinding is not even really playing the game; it's sitting in town waiting to venture out for 30 seconds to mash some keys.

    I've been leveling my alt classes through the DF exclusively, and doing a couple of Leves if im really close to a level at which i get a new dungeon.

    If you're leveling a new class to 50, find a friend interested in doing the same as a Tank or Healer and get faster queues. Or level a Tank yourself.

    Hunt around for FATEs while doing the Hunt Log. Do a Crafting or Gathering class while in the queue if you don't have friends.

    Or just suck it up and cry in a corner until your DPS queue pops. Your choice.

    Do you work in marketing? You really know how to polish a turd and make it sound awesome.

    The point of my post is forced group content and limited hunting logs is an unstable form of leveling. Less and less people are dungeon running and some zones are becoming barren when it comes to FATEs. leaving huge gaps in leveling.

    I didn't ask "yo guys how do i level", I was asking if SE plan to relieve this declining situation. One can only hope with repeatable quests being added there is some love towards the leveling situation.

    Well, you could actually make some friends and bypass the queue, but you don't seem very likeable.

    Bless, did Sylve get his buddy to post for him? You're both from the same world and if I cared enough to check probably the same guild.

    Some wonderful input from two critical thinking people - much obliged to you both.

    I dont know why they said people are not doing the low level dungeons when I instant que from Sastasha to Hauke manor today and it seem like every dungeon I did today there was some new players in it.

    Also, to the OP you can do way more then 6 leves a day and if you level 50 and still have story quest on your second or third class you doing something wrong.

    1) That's because you're leveling tank classes. Your char info says Glad/Mara.

    2) You earn 6 leves a day, so I don't see how you can do way more unless you don't use them.

    3) You get story quests for each class - you might want to check your trainer.

    level 50 monk level 15 lnc going to be leveling ACN tomorrow there is no more then a 15 wait on anything thats not endgame.

    I have 99 and is capped I can burned thru twenty right now and will have 99 again by the weekend.

    Those are not Story quest those are class and Job quest that happen to have they own story but in no way connected to the main story.

    Also, if you going to check my profile check all the classes I have leveled not just two and one of the two you named isnt even high enough to do Dungeons.
