==What is Experience?==
{{otheruses|normal [[PvE]] EXP|points {{Pvpexp}} earned in [[PvP]] to increase [[PvP rank]]|PvP EXP|points {{Eurekaexp}} earned in [[Eureka]] to increase Elemental level|Elemental EXP}}
'''Experience Points''', or {{exp}} '''EXP''', are a system that drives the advancement of players in the game. All [[Disciples of War]], [[Disciples of Magic|Magic]], [[Disciples of the Hand|the Hand]], and [[Disciples of the Land|the Land]] receive EXP for a wide variety of activities. Upon reaching a [[#Required EXP by Level|certain threshold]], players advance by one level. Upon reaching level 100 in a [[class]] (or in the case of [[Blue Mage]], level 80), players will no longer earn further EXP from any activities. Various ways to boost EXP gain are also available to players, as well as several one-time sources of EXP.


Experience is the point system that drives the advancement of many aspects of the game, including but not limited to:
==Sources of EXP==


# Leveling of combat [[classes]] ([[Disciples of War]] and [[Disciples of Magic]])
===Disciples of War and Magic===
# Leveling of [[crafting]]/[[gathering]] classes ([[Disciples of the Hand]] and [[Disciples of the Land]])
# Leveling of combat [[companions]] (specifically the Combat [[Chocobo]], which is not covered in this guide currently)


There are many ways in which to earn experience, including but not limited to:
Disciples of War and Magic earn their EXP primarily through combat activity, such as defeating enemies, participating in FATEs, and completing dungeons. The following is a non-exhaustive list in no particular order of activities that grant EXP to Disciples of War and Magic:  


* Killing [[Monsters]]
* Defeating [[Enemies]]
** note: with [[Patch 6.0]], monsters inside dungeons no longer give [[Experience]]. The equivalent EXP was rolled into the bosses themselves.
** Note: as of [[Patch 6.0]], regular enemies inside dungeons no longer grant EXP. Instead, the equivalent EXP is granted upon defeating the [[bosses]].
* Completing [[Leves]]
* Completing [[Duty Roulette]]s once daily for the bonus.
* Participating in [[FATEs]]
* Participating in [[FATEs]]
* Completing [[Side Quests]], [[Class Quests]], and [[Main Scenario Quests|Main Storyline quests]]
* Participating in [[PvP]]
* Completing [[Challenge Log]]s
** This includes [[Crystalline Conflict]], [[Frontline]], and [[Rival Wings]], but excludes Custom Matches.
* Completing [[Hunting Log]]s
* Completing [[Main Scenario Quests]], once per character
* Completing [[Duty Roulette]]s
* Completing [[Class Quests|Class]], [[Job Quests|Job]], and [[Role Quests]], once per character
* Running [[Deep Dungeon]]s
* Completing [[Side Quests]], once per character
* Completing combat [[Tribal Quests]], 12 per day
* Completing certain [[Challenge Log]] entries, once per week
* Completing class [[Hunting Log]] entries, once per class
** Jobs introduced after ''[[A Realm Reborn]]'' do not have a class Hunting Log.
* Completing [[The_Hunt#Mark_Bills|daily Mark Bills]] for [[The Hunt]]; different sets for each [[expansion]].
* Completing [[Sightseeing Log]] entries, once per character
* Completing [[Deep Dungeon]]s
* Participating in [[Field Operations]] in [[Save the Queen: Blades of Gunnhildr|Bozja]].
* Completing Battlecraft [[Levequests]]
* Completing [[Guildhests]]
** Most classes also earn a one-time EXP bonus when completing a Guildhest for the first time, with the exception of jobs introduced with ''[[Shadowbringers]]'' and later.


In addition to all of this, there are various ways in which you can boost the amount of experience you get from any of these particular activities!  These come in many forms, specifically:
===Disciples of the Hand and the Land===


* [[Food]] buffs (Obtained from eating food items)
Disciples of the Hand and the Land earn their EXP through crafting and gathering activities respectively. The following is a non-exhaustive list in no particular order of activities that grant EXP to Disciples of the Hand and the Land:
* Buffs from your [[Free Company]] (Obtained by having "Buff Actions" activated by high-ranking guild members)
* Wearing the [[Moogle Cap]] (Obtained by pre-ordering A Realm Reborn)
* Wearing the [[Helm of Light]] (Obtained by purchasing the A Realm Reborn Collector's Edition)
* Wearing the [[Friendship Circlet]] (Obtained by recruiting a friend, or being recruited by a friend - and subscribing for at least 30 days)
* Wearing the [[Brand-new Ring]] (Obtained by completing all of the [[Hall of the Novice]] for a singular role)
* Wearing the [[Ala Mhigan Earrings]] (Obtained by pre-ordering Stormblood)
* Wearing the [[Aetheryte Earring]] (Obtained by pre-ordering Shadowbringers)
* Wearing the [[Menphina's Earring]] (Obtained by pre-ordering Endwalker)
* Rested EXP (Obtained over time by resting or logging out in 'Sanctuary' areas ((places with Aetheryte Shards)))
* Armoury Bonus (All combat classes lower-level than your highest level combat class will have a +100% EXP buff towards applicable activities until level 70, where it decreases to +50%)


In addition, some servers with low populations are designated as "Preferred", providing a passive buff called "The Road to 80" while on any class below level 70. This buff doubles all experience earned AFTER applying the appropriate bonuses. When there is a queue, character creation on a Preferred server is unavailable. Character creation becomes available during times of the day when there isn't much user activity, such as late at night or in the mornings. You can easily create a new character on a Preferred server if you are available during that time. To track availability of new character creation on a Preferred server, you can use the official [https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/worldstatus/ Server Status] web page. You can also use the log-in client by clicking the Server Status icon in the top-right corner. The servers designated as Preferred typically change when a new patch is released. After the Preferred server changes, the buff will last for the remainder of 90 days since character creation. Upon attaining level 30 in any class, the character will be gifted one million gil, applicable once per account per data center, and 15 days of free play time, applicable once per account. [https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/option_service/world_transfer_service/population_balancing/#worldtype Reference]

* Participating in [[Ocean Fishing]] ({{FSH}} [[Fisher]] only).


Below are tables that denote the breakdown and application of the various EXP buffs to EXP-gaining activities in the game:
==Bonuses to EXP==


==Armoury Bonus==
Quite a number of bonuses can be applied to increase EXP earned. Most of these bonuses stack additively with one another, unless otherwise noted in the sections below.


The Armoury Bonus is additional experience granted to any combat class you have that is NOT your highest level class.  From levels 1-79, you receive +100% additional experience for secondary classes that are lower level than your highest level class.  At level 80, this bonus decreases to only 50%.  The amount of experience granted has nothing to do with the distance in levels from your highest class.
===Meals===


Additionally, the +10% experience from The Heat of Battle II (FC buff) - will multiply against this buff to provide an additional 10% experience. So the Armoury bonus is 100% (armoury) x 10% (fc buff) = 120% total instead of just 110%, while the FC buff is active. This is different from the other bonuses, as they are not multiplied against the Armory bonus but are additive.
[[Meals]] can be consumed to gain {{buff|well fed}} [[Well Fed]], which grants +3% bonus to EXP for 30 minutes in addition to the meal's specific effects. The duration can be extended to 60 minutes by consuming multiple servings of the same food. Only one meal bonus can be active at a time. This bonus applies to EXP gained from defeating enemies, synthesizing recipes, and gathering items.


The Armoury Bonus, as previously mentioned - does not apply to non-combat classes such as gatherers & crafters.
Certain meals from special events will grant a +4% bonus to EXP instead. For example: {{item icon|Fat Choco Choco}}.


Examples:
====Other Consumables====
* Your highest level combat class is 20.  You are playing as that class. You receive no armoury bonus.
{| {{STDT|item align-left}}
* Your highest level combat class is 20.  You are playing as a second combat class that is less than level 20.  You are now receiving armoury bonus exp.
* Your highest level combat class is 20.  You are playing a second combat class that is also level 20.  You receive no armoury bonus.
 
The Armoury Bonus applies to the following sources of Combat EXP:
* Fates
* Leves
* Kills
* Main Story Quests
* Palace of the Dead
* Dungeon Completion

'''Notes:'''
===Armoury Bonus===
* Heat of Battle buffs cannot be stacked nor will they stack with Squadron Battle Manual (the manual overwrites).
 
* The Road to 80 is only available to characters created on 'Preferred' worlds and lasts for 90 days or until the server's status changes, whichever is longer.
The Armoury Bonus is a bonus applied to EXP gained by combat classes when below the level of your highest class. The bonus is +100% for levels 1-89, reducing to +50% for levels 90-100. Despite what the in-game Active Help entry implies, this bonus does not otherwise change depending on the discrepancy between levels. '''This bonus only applies to defeating enemies and [[FATE]] rewards.''' Other sources of experience, such as completing [[Duty Roulette]]s, are not affected.


==Crafting/Gathering EXP Table==
Notably, the buffs [[File:The heat of battle1.png|link=]] "The Heat of Battle" and "[[Squadron Battle Manual]]" are multiplicative with the Armoury Bonus, on top of its normal additive effects. For instance, a class with the Armoury Bonus and {{buff|The Heat of Battle II}} (10%) will earn 120% experience: 100% from the Armoury Bonus, 10% from The Heat of Battle II acting multiplicatively (as 10% of 100% is 10%), and 10% from The Heat of Battle II acting additively.


{| {{STDT}}
===Rested EXP===
 
Rested EXP is gained by resting or logging out in areas designated as sanctuaries. Sanctuaries are typically areas around an [[Aetheryte]] as well as City-States, such as [[Limsa Lominsa]], [[Gridania]], and [[Ul'dah]]. Sanctuary status is indicated by a crescent moon symbol to the right of the experience bar. Rested EXP provides a 50% bonus to EXP gained from defeating enemies, synthesizing recipes, and gathering items. Because of this, rested EXP is consumed as a percentage of the bar, rather than a flat amount.
 
The current rested bonus is displayed on top of the experience bar. The dark orange portion indicates how much EXP can be earned before the bonus fades. If the bar is blue, it indicates that the bonus will carry over to the next level. It takes 7 days to gain a full bar of rested EXP, at which point no more will be accrued.

</gallery>
 
===Free Company Actions===
 
[[Free Company]] [[Free Company Actions|Actions]] are buffs granted by a Free Company to its members for 24 hours, some of which can increase EXP gained. Up to two Free Company Actions can be active at any one time.

'''Notes:'''
===Special Equipment===
* Armoury Bonus does not provide a bonus to DoH/DoL classes
* Two of the same FC EXP Buff cannot be stacked with each other
* The Squadron manuals do not stack with FC buffs. The Crafter's/Gatherer's Grace from GC/Script manuals does stack.
* The Road to 80 is only available to characters created on 'Preferred' worlds and lasts for 90 days or until the server's status changes, whichever is longer.
 
==Rested Experience==
 
Rested EXP is obtained by resting or logging out in a sanctuary--the area around any Aetheryte to which you can attune yourself to return to later. Such sanctuaries include city-States like ([[Gridania]], [[Limsa Lominsa]], [[Ul'dah]], as well as any Aetheryte in the field that you can [[teleport]] to. Sanctuary status is indicated by a crescent moon symbol to the right of your experience bar.
 
Here's what we know about Rested EXP:
* It increases EXP gain by 50% for applicable activities.
* It can charge up to 1 full level bar. [https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/qo5w8h/psa_rested_exp_and_you_the_wiki_is_wrong/ NewReference] [http://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/382jsv/rested_xp_cap_is_15_levels/ OldIncompleteTest]
* All activities which benefit from Rested EXP will consume from the same bar
* It takes 7 days to gain the full 1 bonus level.
* The % of the bar consumed remains the same regardless of level.
**Example: If you have a level 45 [[Dragoon]], and you eat 2 bars worth of level EXP to get up to level 47, and then switch to a level 10 [[Gladiator]], you will still only have 1 bar remaining that will be consumed if you level that Gladiator to level 11.
* If you queue into an instanced dungeon/guildhest while being in a Sanctuary, you will still accrue rested EXP as if you were in that sanctuary.  This means that if you have run out of rested EXP but are still in a Sanctuary, you will occasionally still get a rested EXP bonus whenever an amount "tics" into your rested exp bank.
* The highlight on your experience bar represents BaseExp+BonusFromRest, or your "expected experience if no other bonuses or sources are used"
** Example: If you have 30% of your experience bar highlighted, it represents only 10% bonus EXP from rest. The other 20% is the base EXP you're expected to gain while burning off rest.
** If you have no other bonuses affecting your EXP, then a rest-benefiting activity will not shift the endpoint of the highlighted area.
* '''Rumor:''' You may grow rested EXP faster if you are in a Sanctuary as a lower-level class than your highest?  (Example:  Lvl 50 DRG main logs out as a lvl 1 ROG).  Testimony needed.
 
==Challenge Logs & Hunting Logs==
{{see also|Challenge Log|Hunting Log}}
Challenge Logs are "weekly" and reset every Tuesday.  These logs provide huge chunks of EXP for players who complete their objectives.  You will receive a warning of when you are about to "complete" an objective, in case you want to switch to a different class and have them receive the reward.


Hunting Logs do not reset.  They provide 1-time bonuses for completing their objectives, with a 1-time mega-bonus for completing an entire section of the logbook. Currently Hunting Logs are only for levels 1-50.  There are no logs for 51-70.
Certain [[Equipment]] provides a bonus to EXP gained when worn, up to a certain level. This bonus applies to EXP gained from defeating enemies, synthesizing recipes, and gathering items. The following is a list of equipment that grants a bonus to EXP, as well as how they can be obtained:
 
{| {{STDT|item align-left}}
Neither of the Logs benefit from any additional sources of EXP buffs.
 
==Daily Roulettes==
{{see also|Duty Roulette}}
Roulettes are the largest singular sources of EXP in the game.  Participating in a Low-Level Daily Roulette will grant anywhere from 50-90% of a level upon completion (killing the final boss of the random dungeon) while under level 50. This is in addition to the experience obtained from killing the bosses in these dungeons, and in addition to completing Challenge Logs (which are easier to do in roulettes). The 50-90% range is based on the difference between your current level and the level of the dungeon.  If you have been scaled down to a very low-level, you will receive a higher bonus.  If you are the same-level or similar to the dungeon you'll receive less of a bonus.  This can be done once per day and resets at 8AM PST/PDT.
 
Additionally, you may queue for Guildhest Roulettes.  These are small "trials" which test basic dungeoneering skills.  Upon completion of a Guildhest Roulette, you will receive a large chunk of EXP (not as large as LLDR since it is not as extensive or time consuming).  This is about 10-18% of a level.  This can be done once per day and resets at 8AM PST/PDT.  Further, each time you complete a type of Guildhest for the first time (per class) you will receive additional bonus EXP (one time per class per roulette only).
 
The following EXP values are granted for successful completion of roulettes for each level.  DISCLAIMER: These values may vary based on a number of factors:
 
* Length of the dungeon
* Difference between your level and the level of the dungeon
* The amount of "new-comers" in the dungeon
* Whether or not you are receiving experience from the mobs or not in the dungeon (such as High-level or MSQ roulettes).

==How do I maximize my EXP?==
===The Road to 90===
 
Some [[Servers|Worlds]] with lower populations are occasionally designated as Preferred Worlds. This designation gives characters ''newly created on those worlds'' a passive buff called {{buff|the road to 90}} '''The Road to 90''', which applies to any class below level 90. The buff provides a multiplicative 100% bonus to ''all'' sources of EXP, calculated after applying any other bonuses. For more information about Preferred Worlds, please refer to the Play Guide entry on [https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/option_service/world_transfer_service/population_balancing/ population balancing]. The buff was during the first day of early access for ''[[Stormblood]]'' ([[patch 4.0]]) as ''The Road to 60''.
All roles benefit the most by doing the [Leveling], [Trial], and [Main Scenario] roulettes every day. However, due to the discrepancy between queue times for Tanks/Heals vs. DPS - you may find yourself having to skip the [Main Scenario] queue as a DPS. (Correct as of 01DEC16)
 
'''NOTE:'''
* If you are under level 26, do not forget to equip your [[Friendship Circlet]]!
* If you are under level 31, do not forget to also equip your [[Brand-new Ring]]!
* If you are under level 51, do not forget to also also equip your [[Ala Mhigan Earrings]] (Stormblood pre-order purchasers only).
* If you are under level 71, do not forget to also also equip your [[Aetheryte Earring]] (Shadowbringers pre-order purchasers only).
* If you are under level 80, do not forget to also also equip your [[Menphina&#39;s Earring]] (Endwalker pre-order purchasers only).
 
The best method for leveling up will be to do the following (ordered by priority);
 
# [[Duty Roulette#Duty Roulette: Leveling|Leveling Roulette]] (simultaneously completes weekly Dungeon Challenge Logs)
# [[Duty Roulette#Duty Roulette: Alliance Raid|Alliance Roulette]] (if unlocked)
# [[Duty Roulette#Duty Roulette: Trials|Trial Roulette]]
# (If Tank/Heals) - [[Duty Roulette#Duty Roulette: Main Scenario|Main Scenario Roulette]]
# (If under level 30) - [[Duty Roulette#Duty Roulette: Guildhests|Guildhest Roulette]] (simultaneously completes weekly Guildhest Challenge Logs)
# If you have rested EXP - queue for the highest level dungeon you can. If you're a DPS below 60 and have a Rank 2 [[Squadron]], consider [[Command Missions]] for instant queues. Similarly, DPS over 71 may wish to consider using the [[Trust System]].
# Otherwise do [[Deep Dungeons]] (esp. for [[DPS]])
## [[Palace of the Dead]] - specifically floors 1-10 or 51-60 to maximize EXP per hour.
## [[Heaven on High]] (level 61+) - specifically floors 21-30 to maximize EXP per hour. 
## [[The Bozjan Southern Front]] (level 71+) - specifically [[Zadnor]] to maximize EXP per hour. 
# Complete daily Beast Tribe Quests, Grind [[FATEs]], complete [[Hunting Log]]s, or advance the [[Main Scenario Quest]] (if available) while waiting in a dungeon queue or if you do not have any rested EXP.


==Experience Points Required for each level==
==={{buff|exp bonus}} [[EXP Bonus]]===
This applies to both combat levels as well as gathering/crafting levels.

Disambig icon.png This article is about normal PvE EXP. For points PvP earned in PvP to increase PvP rank, see PvP EXP. For points Eureka earned in Eureka to increase Elemental level, see Elemental EXP.

Experience Points, or Experience EXP, are a system that drives the advancement of players in the game. All Disciples of War, Magic, the Hand, and the Land receive EXP for a wide variety of activities. Upon reaching a certain threshold, players advance by one level. Upon reaching level 100 in a class (or in the case of Blue Mage, level 80), players will no longer earn further EXP from any activities. Various ways to boost EXP gain are also available to players, as well as several one-time sources of EXP.

Sources of EXP

Disciples of War and Magic

Disciples of War and Magic earn their EXP primarily through combat activity, such as defeating enemies, participating in FATEs, and completing dungeons. The following is a non-exhaustive list in no particular order of activities that grant EXP to Disciples of War and Magic:

Disciples of the Hand and the Land

Disciples of the Hand and the Land earn their EXP through crafting and gathering activities respectively. The following is a non-exhaustive list in no particular order of activities that grant EXP to Disciples of the Hand and the Land:

Bonuses to EXP

Quite a number of bonuses can be applied to increase EXP earned. Most of these bonuses stack additively with one another, unless otherwise noted in the sections below.

Meals

Meals can be consumed to gain Well Fed icon1.png Well Fed, which grants +3% bonus to EXP for 30 minutes in addition to the meal's specific effects. The duration can be extended to 60 minutes by consuming multiple servings of the same food. Only one meal bonus can be active at a time. This bonus applies to EXP gained from defeating enemies, synthesizing recipes, and gathering items.

Certain meals from special events will grant a +4% bonus to EXP instead. For example: Fat choco choco icon1.png  Fat Choco Choco.

Armoury Bonus

The Armoury Bonus is a bonus applied to EXP gained by combat classes when below the level of your highest class. The bonus is +100% for levels 1-89, reducing to +50% for levels 90-100. Despite what the in-game Active Help entry implies, this bonus does not otherwise change depending on the discrepancy between levels. This bonus only applies to defeating enemies and FATE rewards. Other sources of experience, such as completing Duty Roulettes, are not affected.

Notably, the buffs The heat of battle1.png "The Heat of Battle" and "Squadron Battle Manual" are multiplicative with the Armoury Bonus, on top of its normal additive effects. For instance, a class with the Armoury Bonus and The Heat of Battle II (10%) will earn 120% experience: 100% from the Armoury Bonus, 10% from The Heat of Battle II acting multiplicatively (as 10% of 100% is 10%), and 10% from The Heat of Battle II acting additively.

Rested EXP

Rested EXP is gained by resting or logging out in areas designated as sanctuaries. Sanctuaries are typically areas around an Aetheryte as well as City-States, such as Limsa Lominsa, Gridania, and Ul'dah. Sanctuary status is indicated by a crescent moon symbol to the right of the experience bar. Rested EXP provides a 50% bonus to EXP gained from defeating enemies, synthesizing recipes, and gathering items. Because of this, rested EXP is consumed as a percentage of the bar, rather than a flat amount.

The current rested bonus is displayed on top of the experience bar. The dark orange portion indicates how much EXP can be earned before the bonus fades. If the bar is blue, it indicates that the bonus will carry over to the next level. It takes 7 days to gain a full bar of rested EXP, at which point no more will be accrued.

  • Rested EXP Bar, showing a completely filled blue bar

Free Company Actions

Free Company Actions are buffs granted by a Free Company to its members for 24 hours, some of which can increase EXP gained. Up to two Free Company Actions can be active at any one time.

The Road to 90

Some Worlds with lower populations are occasionally designated as Preferred Worlds. This designation gives characters newly created on those worlds a passive buff called The Road to icon1.png The Road to 90, which applies to any class below level 90. The buff provides a multiplicative 100% bonus to all sources of EXP, calculated after applying any other bonuses. For more information about Preferred Worlds, please refer to the Play Guide entry on population balancing. The buff was during the first day of early access for Stormblood (patch 4.0) as The Road to 60.

EXP Bonus icon1.png EXP Bonus

When a Mentor status icon1.pngMentor forms a party with a New adventurer status icon1.png New Adventurer or Returner status icon1.png Returner, they both receive a bonus to experience points earned from adventuring activities. This experience point bonus applies until level 90.

Bonuses to experience points earned will apply to the following:

Both mentors and new adventurers must be in the same area to receive the experience point bonus. The experience point bonus will not apply when suffering an experience point penalty due to discrepancies in level or when using the Unrestricted Party feature.
