    You get 10% for 10 wolves' den matches (easiest to get a ls and trade), another 15% in the den for 5 wins (again trading is easiest). Frontlines is 10% of a level for seven games and another 15% for three wins. Add in that those games you do for the log also give exp, it isn't so bad. It'll take some time, but if you see it as a casual long term goal it can be done and anyone can be caught up. Rank 20 is still rookie mode I'd say in terms of grind, its like 3500 exp for a level or something? Rank 40 and higher are around 10,000 exp a level and the later ones go beyond that a little, but again logs give percentage rates of your current level so it balances out (full PvP log earlier this week gave me around 5,400 exp).

I was not intending at all to rank up another five levels for some reskins, but it was worth it for the weapons, and it only took four days.
    wow you got that pretty fast. and yeah, fuck dungeons forever ever since fl came out. i find it comical that i can get old tokens/current tokens/pvp marks (for glamour or desynth) all in one place without having to jump off a cliff with noobs in dungeons.

    Its like 2200 per lvl lol. I would love to do more PvP, I just lose interest with the long ass waits for a match. I wait 30min per match and have nothing to do while waiting.

    queues are much better during friday/weekends, unless you're maelstrom. then i'm pretty sure the queues take forever no matter what.

    Yikes you must be maelstrom/adder? Flame queues are usually instant or just a few minutes during prime time on the primal data center. Could do chocobo log during the wait maybe (15% of a level weekly log), but that only takes like 15 minutes to complete. Atma farm in between?

    Problem with this is the game straight up tells people if you are new to a dungeon with the First Time Bonus announcement at the start of a dungeon. Doesn't excuse the behavior though, none of the 4-man dungeons are particularly difficult so ditching because someone is new is high douche-baggery when you can pretty much complete all the mechanics as long as one or two people know what to do.

    Once you figured out what to do, new dungeons are really easy. Not being able to type some basic instructions and eat a 30 mins penalty is what I call being a retard.

    I didn't. That prompt came up saying someone was new to the dungeon and there was an increased reward for completion, which sent the healer into a pissy fit I suppose since the moment I exited out of the CS, he left without a word.

    And yeah, I should have a FC/LS for that, but this was something I tried to do ~12:00 so most people were busy or asleep.

    Yeah, I'm starting to think that the prompt for the bonus is a bad thing. It should be there for the pre-50 fights, but anything at 50 shouldn't give it, ever. The bonus should still be there to help motivate people.

    3k commendation mount, I'm kinda pissed because collector's edition fat chocobo don't mean shit anymore I guess. When will we see Coeurl mount 2.0?

    Complaint: We got a set of the new food furnishings for in our house, and people keep running through taking a bite out of everything despite the big ass message about limited charges and such, wasting the crap out of everything.

    Counter complaint: But the models for them change when depleted, which is a really cool extra detail SE decided to add in.

    Counter counter complaint: The "empty" models are plain and ugly. Except for the wine. Piles of empty wine bottles are cool.

    I can't give my retainer a Halcyon Rod because he's already holding one, and I can't take his out because I'm holding one.
    I can't make him equip the one in his inventory while accessing his equip menu.
    I have to go deposit my rod in armoire to be able to make this work.

    Dumbfounded.

    Put yours in your other retainer's inventory instead?
