It helps to have a friend, but it's still pretty easy solo. I did my dragoon from 1-50 in one day solo and that was with a 2 hour break in between and I wasn't rushing by any means. If you take it more seriously than I did, you can probably do it in half that time. It's not really that hard. Just keep spamming FATES and do your hunting logs while you wait for dungeon pops. Before you unlock dungeons, the levels pretty much fly by. Hunting log and class quests already carry you most of the way. If you have the exp granting earrings from pre-ordering Endwalker, you'll shoot through the first 50 levels super fast in just a few hours. Even without them, it's still pretty damn fast.

The key in any level range is to AVOID burnout. If POTD/HoH, dungeons, Bozja, etc, are boring you to death? Take a break or mix it up. The most important thing is that you're always moving and doing something, even if it isn't the #1 most optimal thing. Burnt out on POTD? Do some Squadron Dungeons, since they're still pretty quick and give decently good XP. Bozja numbing your brain? Dungeons, beast tribes and fates to break it up. As long as you're not forcing it, you'll be fine.

For 53-60, you can still continue doing your Squadron command missions like you did before. For 71-80 don't forget that pre-ordering Endwalker you will receive earrings with a +30% exp bonus up to level 80 right now.

Use Bozja to level or just spam the DF, as even a full sprout party is faster at clearing dungeons than a trust party.

I used Trusts to level 71-80 between doing roulettes mostly so I could level them all to 80 too. With G'raha, you definitely can pull multiple packs, sometimes to the wall, and other times chain them together. it helps if you can pull with a ranged skill and run back toward G'raha (Tactician/Samba/etc when the extra pack gets to the tank to give the healer time to adjust. If you aren't using Alisaie, you can save LB for these large pack pulls too (unless you are melee, of course). The trash became the fastest part of the dungeons with the bosses taking more time since the Trusts stop attacking during any mechanics. I didn't buy gear but would be using the gear that dropped from the dungeon so I wasn't terribly over geared but I did meld all my gear. Run times were 15-20 minutes once you figure out which packs can be chained together. So still not the most efficient but not the worst either. Also a good way to collect gear for glamour, alt jobs, desynth leveling, etc.

Squadrons as a tank can be potentially great exp as well. I haven't tried at lower levels, but for 51-60, it's pretty easy to get 1.2-1.5mil exp in 10-13min as a tank. You'll also get a buttload of GC seals from gear turn ins for Ventures or whatever else. Set the 2 DPS as SMN and do bigger pulls (cooldowns are very important and this is good practice using them). Understand though that the healer is stupid as hell sometimes and WON'T heal you for a good bit. You won't have to worry about angering melee players though by you moving around to buy precious seconds to be healed lol. It's honestly not THAT terrible to level through Squadrons for the lull that is 61-70 or 71. Doing other things like Hunts and Beastmen dailies (obviously Roulettes especially) will help the tedium at least. DPS, and most definitely Healer, won't be as fast but it's still not too terrible.

Welcome to the game! If this is your first time through it's great to try out different jobs, their combat styles their stories (some are good). No reason to rush the MSQ or speed level when you have just begun. (This video is targeted at players who already have a few 80s and find leveling a chore.) Please take your time and explore all the game has to offer. It's a lot. By leveling a lancer, thaumaturge, marauder and archer, you are gaining insight into tanking, casters, ranged, and melee, and this experience will be valuable to you no matter what you do. Tanks who have played melee and other jobs are noticeably better for it for example. Mastering end game rotations isn't your concern for a long time. You will learn it when you have to :). In the meantime, trying a lot of jobs will not harm you in any way. Enjoy.

FFXIV is super easy to level to 50, after that the grind begins (it takes less than a day to get a single job from 1 to 50 outside of MSQ with the assumption you use every single EXP boost, so food, buff, EXP ring, EXP helm, EXP earrings, rest bonus, bonus from first job max level). Between 50 and 60 most players just bite the bullet and run Deep Dungeon, takes about two to three days. From 60 onwards we have options, but Southern Front is now the fastest after 70. The 60 to 80 grind you're looking at a week per job realistically, if you have all day every day, about a week to get from 1 to 80 with buffs, 2 weeks without.)

This is an amazing detailed video about how to level. Really well done! I do want to add one thing though. You said you skip MSQ roulette because it's boring as hell. While I do agree with you there, the thing is that it is actually the fastest way to level. Compared to other roulettes the exp per minute you gain from MSQ roulette is the highest the game has to offer. The question is if you're willing to do so that and you clearly don't want to, which is fine :P You do mention that the exp value is great, so there's that, but I just want to mention for people reading through the comments that it's the best exp you can get via a duty/event/everything basicly and if you want to level the fastest way than you should do them daily, even if you go insane afterwards.

This was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks. I am still on the free trial and almost 50 and want to try a few other jobs out before I buy the game and decide which one to stick with. This helps a ton. I outleveled my main story quest by a lot so because I stopped geting kill xp and not much xp from the quests commpared to my level, I stopped doing it and saving it for an alt when it gets to that level. That will speed things up for several levels too. When would be a good time and which type of leves should one do to help the leveling. I find that they can be done really quick.

Squadrons are amazing. Any pub group will skip half the adds, which is 50% of the experience in the dungeon.
@beautyoffailure9904

It's much more efficient to skip as many mobs as possible in roulettes. The roulette and clear bonuses are what you want - mob experience is minuscule compared to this big chunk of experience. The weight is a bit different for lower level characters, but it's still faster to just get it done as fast as possible skipping as many mobs as possible. Especially since not all people participating in a levelling roulette will be at a lower level. The 50% estimate is also grossly wrong. It might be closer to 50% at very low levels, but the higher you get the less the trash contributes. It's much more time efficient to skip adds or even death pull in dungeons (method not available in all dungeons and only in ARR dungeons) since you can fill the extra time you get by doing it fast with squadron levelling. Death pulls are hard to pull off in roulettes though since most people are unable to grasp the concept and somehow mess it up. So you will probably have a bad time attempting this strategy unless 1 or 2 other people in the group are people you know. Using a squadron you do not get a roulette bonus and their damage is so high that they clear trash extremely fast. In this situation it's very efficient to kill all the trash. Do not confuse this with an efficient levelling run. After a while you will level with your squadrons by pulling 4-7 groups, go AFK watching Netflix and or doing RL chores while they kill the mobs (taxes, e-mails, home office, cleaning, dishwashing etc.) and repeat. If you are the healer you can't pull as many groups, but 2-3 are possible without having to heal and going AFK. As a tank you really do not need to dodge all AoE or even use CDs. The squadron healer will compensate. So going AFK in this scenario is okay, too. 2-3 AoE moves are enough to hold enmity until the mobs are dead. Choosing the right dungeons is also key. Do not choose Dzemael; Toto-Rak, Brayflox and Stone Vigil are very good since you can AFK at most bosses, too. Minimal input, maximal output. TL;DR: Skip mobs in roulettes and clear as fast as possible. Do not skip mobs with squadrons.

A note about the EXP buffs: They only apply to monster exp. This is true of all exp buffs including gear and food. There is no way to buff exp gained from things like daily roulette bonuses, FATES, or beast tribe quests. The monsters you kill during the dungeon/FATE/quest will give boosted exp, but the completion reward will not. Since probably at least half of your exp is going to be coming from rewards rather than kills (if not more depending on how hard you're grinding; casual grinds rely more on bonuses than harder grinds), this significantly cuts the value of these buffs. How much does this matter? Personally, I think gear buffs are always worth it because they're massive, and the gear itself is always worth equipping while active anyway just because the stats are always good. The FC/Squadron Manual buffs are decent and worth having, but if you're relying on manuals and run out I wouldn't go out of my way to get them. I personally don't bother with food. You can expect MAYBE a 1% buff to total exp gain, which means that for every 100 hours of grinding you'll save one hour of time. That's just not worth the effort of keeping stocked on food and remembering to keep the buff active all the time. But that's me and my ADHD brain, maybe it's not a problem for you. If you wanna go full rubberross and have a stack of eggs on you at all times, I'm sure not gonna stop you.

The Squadron AI actually gets to ignore most boss mechanics. Example: in Aurum Vale, they don't get affected by Gold Lung and Hooked Burrs. As long as you get the mechanics down well, you should fine with the squadron - but it is a reason as to why I don't recommend the squadron past level 50, as some of the boss mechanics get pretty scuffed with them. I generally find the rewards from HW hunts to not be worth the time.

The xp of a roulette doesn't scale perfectly between levels by the way . Weird example but if you do MSQ roulette, levels 51-54 are best for that, then levels 71-80, then 55-59, then level 50, then levels 61-69, then 60, then 70. Levels 50 60 70 are weird hell levels of a like that give reduced xp specifically on roulettes and monster kills and levels 51-54 are near the level 50 mobs that also give the mob xp bonus for MSQ so that's why it works that way

There is a trick to dungeon farming for xp. IF you queue the highest available dungeon to your level, it will massively increase your xp gained. Do not do daily roulette.. except once for daily. If you are going the dungeon route, specifically queue for the highest one available, and the queue should not take that long even as dps. I honestly can't stand doing the HoH/Potd crap, its far too repetitive.
@AlZahard
3 жыл бұрын
Duty Roulette should only be done once per day for the XP bonus, correct. Queuing for the highest level dungeon is exactly what I recommend for tanks/healers, with the exception of level 50/60/70 dungeons. DPS queue on my server is easily 9-12 minutes on average, so POTD/HOH are much more time efficient. I don't see how spamming dungeons is any less repetitive than deep dungeons, but each to their own.

I'm just getting my 3rd healer to max. Got sch and ast to 80 awhile back. I went from 35-52 on my 3rd healer with just squadrons. Gonna have to try that on my dps ones. As for 61-70, I originally got to 70 by just spamming the underwater dungeon for the glamor in it. That was before HoH was a thing. It's a short and easy dungeon, but you can't do it right away. I farmed the first dungeon unlocked in sb until I could access it. I did the same strategy after HoH came out and I was leveling ast. HoH que times were super slow outside of weekends, but the underwater dungeon was almost always popping. No idea why, but my guess is it was because people were focusing their time in the +70 level areas. I've never been to that 71-80 zone. I just did the npc dungeons to level them up while I also level my alts.

Man, I just came here to see what was said for 61-70, and can only shake my head at the "don't do beast tribe quests" advice. Seems like a silly misunderstanding, really. For one thing, the exp they give is proportional to your level, not a static amount, so the amount you get at 61 is going to be a lot less than at say, 68 or 69. Secondly, they give more exp the higher your reputation with them, especially when they are maxed out. And if you're still ranking them up, on days when you hit a rank up, you get an extra three allowances, allowing you to do 6 quests instead of 3, essentially doubling the exp that day. Thirdly, considering it takes maybe 5-10 minutes to do a tribe's 3 daily quests, it's actually a very signifigant chunk of a level for very little time/effort. Sure, you can't spam them endlessly, but there's no reason not to do your daily allowance of them. tl;dr - if you're not in such a rush that you want to get through the entire level range in a single day or some crazy shit like that, DEFINITELY do beast tribe quests at 61-70.
