Hit Final Fantasy XIV level 30(unlocked job)

I'm a little lost on what to do honestly. I've leveled most of my classes to 15, got one to thirty finally.. but Exp rewards feel so paltry for everything, even the limited leve quests, that it just feels like a slog. Dungeons are usually my reprieve in MMO's, I've been a dungeon rat for years as it's usually a lot more fun for me. Sadly FFXIV's dungeons feel excessively long and somewhat unrewarding, seems like they aren't really meant to be done more than once or twice.

I played FFXIV for years, which was obviously a lot less sophisticated in regards to leveling options. That said I almost feel like I preferred FFXIV's grinding parties, at least it had a social aspect to it, whereas here I just bounce between leves and Fates by myself for ultimately what feels like very little Exp assuming there are even enough people around to do them, which with Boss fates seems rare.

Yoshi-P, the producer, has specifically said the real game starts at 50. By continuously sticking at low level where there isn't any real content you are specifically keeping yourself in the "boredom" zone. Take a job to 50 where all the real content and other players are. You aren't doing yourself any favors by sticking to the low levels forever. Most jobs don't even have their proper identities until the mid 40s when they get their final skills, and many features don't even unlock until you get at least one job to 50 and finish the original 2.0 storyline. Heck even the dungeons at 50 are better and generally quicker than the ones used 15-50.

Fates are almost always up. When one despawns due to timing out or being completed another spawns shortly after. You should never, ever find yourself in a situation where they are unavailable. This isn't a server to server thing either. The game rotates out the fates in each zone with a bit of randomness so that they are constantly popping up.
