Watch this reh-tard whack trees & rocks for an hour. Leveling up. The key to leveling up while gathering is ...

Accuracy & Speed.

The more strikes that DON'T miss, the more XP & items you get. Moving from node to node & not missing any strikes is all about speed. What is your GPH? That's Gathering Per Hour, nubfarm. I'm guessing mine is around 720GPH during this video. I connected with a node 720 times during the hour. I think I'm low balling myself too. I did go from 27 to 29 in less than an hour.

Yeah I leve'd up, but yo it's 1 of the fastest ways to level up. The other option that I've been experimenting with is going back a few levels & chasing HQs. Earlier today I was after Wyvern Obsidian. I was getting 700+XP for HQ's. I got total 99 NQ's & 26 HQ's when I was done. I haven't done any of the math on this to see if it was a more valuable usage of my time. More on that to come.

Back to the strategy here. I mount my Chocobo immediately -I never move a step on the ground without being on my Chocobo- Okay, that's a lie. I will run to a close node, sometimes & I mean very rarely for me thus far. That is faster than calling in the mount. I see level 30's now STILL running around on foot. Don't be a Jimmy!

More on the gathering to come next week after Zero pulls his head from his ass & we can get back on track to 50.
