The "Good exp spot" thread

[Warudo Ecksu]

Every time I go to bloodshore, I see shouts for exp pts.

^ id love to find some good parties on palamacia, but the search function generally only yields jp squiggles, once ive actually been in 1-2 myself then id have a better idea of what im doing to try setting my own up

Look me up on Palamecia. I'm always down for a good party. Play time is typically 6PM-11PM CST on weekdays and random long times on weekends. Unfortunately I'll be off this Friday through next Friday.

Anyone know if crabs by Aleport west of Limsa would still be good for a party of 6-8 around Rank 17-20? If not, any recommendations?

Try the crabs north of Cedarwood instead.

[Criosist]

at about 20+ maybe 22+ go for cellar puks inside nanawa mines super fast respawn and about 100-200 a kill also fast kills real good SP imo

I'm hoping you mean Giant crabs and not Island crabs. Island crabs will destroy a 17ish tank.

[veritas bellator]

We did Island crabs North of Cedarwood with 5 from 19-21. No problem killing them with 0 risk, just slow exp. Made 9k in about 1hr 45min... There was another party there killing so repops slowed it down some.

damnit people stop inviteing more then 1 conj to the party >.> it angers us!

[Crizto]

A good "north of Cedarwood" crab camp is at approx. @38-25 near a light house. 16-21 PT went pretty well there.

Alright, so about to go crazy here finding a good solo camp for 25CON that gives anything better than 6k SP an hour or so. I cant find anything I can kill reliably that gives more than 100 a kill, most stuff usually less. I've got some good duo and trio spots but nothing good for me solo that wont take like 6 hours of grinding to do. There's GOTTA be something better <_<

I think it's well known that soloing sucks after 23ish. Why don't you want to use the amazing party search system to find a party?

[Reveria]

I've been duoing/trioing with friends when they're on, but I was hoping to find something to work with when they're not on because, unless I'm getting trolled here, the party search system is anything but amazing

It actually is pretty amazing. The problem is nobody uses it. Granted, you could argue that the fact that nobody uses it means that it's difficult to find a party with it which it turn makes it not amazing, but it's kinda like a chicken / egg problem. So more people need to start using it so that it catches on.

Log on during JP prime and look at the party search system and you'll see 5-10 parties going.

950+ online, 47 nearby, -zero- parties recruiting.

Doesn't seem amazing to me. Started my own and... after my 4th hour of attempting, think i'm gonna retire for the night.

Maybe I'm just not using it right then, I dunno. It's certainly not the most intuitive search function. Even if it could make my breakfast for me, not being entirely sure how to use it, and having to go through a million steps to use it when making my own breakfast would be easier doesn't make it better. But this isn't the thread to talk about that kind of stuff. I'll try to figure out how to use it better so we can maybe get people using it more, but until then I still need a half decent solo place if there is one since I'd rather not stand around selling myself on the streets of Limsa while waiting for my exp partners.

So on the 5th hour, people started recongizing it, pretty fun lol

Check this out, see if it helps. I agree the 8,000 menus required to do anything in this game is not always intuitive.
