currently downloading jun 10th update

[Uzor]

well currently its going up by 2k, after 80 it should probably starting to go by 3k or 4k, by 90 4k or 5k, then again just speculation following how the EXP values have gone up over time, for all we know it could be locked(hopefuly) at 2k.

My guess is either 44 > 46 > 48 > 50 > 52 > 54

or

44 > 48 > 52 > 56 > 60 > 64

If the EXP curve keeps increasing the way it does from 60-75, it will take as much* to go from 75-99 as it does to go from 1-75. That seems kind of excessive, IMO.

(* Roughly. I don't have the math in front of me.)

Sweet.

Accession and Manifestion (mainly Accession rly) will be tripled as a recast timer from the next update as a SJ ability. Way to take away Sch's main ability from them to other jobs by tripling it to "maintain balance".

Inc Sch becomes another obselete job.

Not even a big deal; 2 Gem charges on /SCH keeps SCH main from being obsolete along with what they can do 55+. By the time SCH hits 90 they should have a total of 5 Gems which allows for more manipulation of magic. RDM/SCH just allows for Hastega and Refreshga with recast timers of 60 seconds and 54 seconds respectively.

I have a horrible feeling that the actual quest for Genkai will somehow involved completing the missions for this installment of Abyssea. I'm pretty sure each increase takes place with the release of a new explansion.

[Spira]

i kinda thought that there wont be genkai lol

[Byrthnoth]

Even if it only goes up 2k per level, 75-99 will still be more xp than 1-75, right?

Start considering whick jobs you really like, lols.

Actually, based on the current EXP curve, it would be a lot, lot lot lot more.

If you take a baseline of the current TNL of 44k and multiply it by 24 more levels - you come out with over 1,000,000 EXP to go 75-99. That's way more EXP than it takes from 1-75.

Now..that is based on a flatline EXP TNL from 75-99, which is very doubtful. If we assume they keep it at +2k per level, again, unlikely, you come out to 1,634,000 exp, or a little more than 2 jobs from 1-75, just to go 75-99.

It's more than likely they will tier it as was said before, +2k up until 80, +4k to 90, +6k to 99

You're probably arguing something complete different but i was commenting on the fact the guy said it would be over 1,000,000 exp from 98 to 99, not 75 to 99 =0

Though i dread the grind... Im not looking forward to it

Meriting a job fully (2 x 5 upgrades on tier I and 2 x 5 upgrades on tier II) takes about 70 merits or 700,000 xp, 1 mil+ xp for 75-99 seems likely to be the case, do not forget it also comes in "smaller" chunks (76-80 being the first).
Let's say it takes 200,000 xp to get 80, you will have 4 months before the next cap increase to get your jobs on par. It still is a lot of partying, but IF they add new xp camps this gonna give many people something better to do than looking at their moogle spinning till some NM window opens/LS event starts/etc.

I'm just gonna stick with lvling RDM for now, not like I get to play shit else besides RDM anyway, so might as well.

[Uzor]

I wonder how many relic BRDs that realize they dread the job will refuse to lvl to 99, or level it last.

I delight in the irony, the jobs not that big of a pain in the ass, hell most of the time when I would play it I'd be afk, just have a macro playing out everything for me, at least I would do that for some hnms

[rahskala]

Yeah, I admit I totally messed the numbers up, but my general point is this: It's going to take a fuckton of exp/grinding to get to 99 unless they make some adjustments to the curve.

[Uzor]

That seem to be the way of BRD's. Most seem to sing their songs then afk 'till they wear :3

I tried to level it once. I stopped at 55 after falling asleep in every party I joined.

[dannyl]

Probably to early, what you've seen so far is probably everything they added, outside of the WS animations, we'll probably get the rest of the update on the 21st where we should hopefully see AF3

Thank you for response =o

[Darkmagi]

Don't forget the maximum exp/kill goes up at 51. I wouldn't be surprised if it doubled at 76. 200-400 at 51, 800 max without chain at 76 would be cool >.>

[Thuronn]

Because you always get the same xp/hour at every level of the game right?

I expect there will be camps where people can get 40-50k+ an hour for the higher levels.

This game is years overdue for this level increase, so I'd personally prefer it to be a little, god forbid this happens, time consuming and actual effort will be put into leveling a job again.
