The Hunting Log provides the best XP for first 15 levels. Especially for the first 15 levels, after that, they are still worth doing if you are going to the area anyway, but don’t go out of your way to complete these later on. Hunting log entries are very fast to complete and give a good amount of XP. Now that you are ready to level your second, third, or 18th class, things will go a bit faster, much due to the Armory Bonus. Like the Main Scenario quests, Class quests will show up when available in the top left corner of your screen.
Class QuestsĮvery 5 levels you will unlock new class quests, these give even more XP than the story quests, so be sure to always pick these up. If you want to, you can of course switch it up a bit and do your Hunting Log, Challenge Log, Fates, and Roulettes in between the story quests. Look to your top left corner if you are unsure where your next story or class quest is.ĭo each Guildhest at least once, as these will teach you some important tactics for dungeons and group play. If you are uncertain of where to go next for the main story, look no further than to the top left corner of the screen and the game will tell you what quest is next in the Main Scenario. These give a huge chunk of XP and you will have to do them anyway to unlock much of the content in the game. Storyįor your first class, you should be sticking mainly to the Main Scenario quests. leveling all the rest is a bit different. The Friendship Circlet (20% to level 26) can is from the Recruit a Friend Program, and the Brand New Ring (30% to level 31) is easily attained from completing the Adventurers Guild Trials.įinal Fantasy XIV is a bit different from other MMOs since it allows one character to level up all the classes in the game. Most of these are from pre-ordering expansions or buying the collector’s editions. Item XP Buffs – Certain items will give you an XP bonus.So if you are already level 80 in one class you will get a bonus on all your classes. Armory Bonus – The armory bonus is applied to all your classes below your highest level class.Free Company – Most Free Companies have the Heat of Battle buff active which will give you a 5%-15% EXP bonus depending on the rank of the buff.If you eat two pieces of food the time on the buff will stack up to an hour. You can buy cheap food from vendors and any food will do. Food Buff – You will get a 3% XP bonus from eating food which isn’t much but you will also get stat bonuses and every bit helps.If you see a little moon symbol on your XP bar, you are earning rested XP, and the blue part of your XP bar is your accumulated XP. Rested XP – Always remember to log out in a sanctuary to get the Rested 50% XP bonus which charges up to 1,5 levels.Preferred Server Bonus – New players who want to level quickly should pick the Preferred Servers when starting out to get the “Road to 70” buff which will double XP until level 70 for 90 days.I do not recommend this for your first class though. You can buy the Tales of Adventure / One Hero’s Journey in the FFXIV store to become level 70 in your chosen class.
