I haven't timed it precisely but it's always fun taking a new job from 1-12 as fast as you think you can, with food, +1s, etc.

I got DRK to 12 in maybe 2 or 3 hours, with some breaks. Doing a real timing it it can be fun, but it's not something you can re-do since you can't delevel back to one unless you make a new character, etc. So, hard to really say... and things would be very dependent on party members if you did something that wasn't solo.

I did BRD1 to BRD11 yesterday in about 50 minutes.

Need someone to really start timing things, it would be fun to see what job does it the fastest, and why, etc. Ranger probably does it even quicker than BRD if you're one shotting every mob.

You might be right. I was going to say MNK but you are slowed down by running around and the actual engagement speed.

Someone made it from 1-37 in 7hrs 17 minutes. This was with the old sync system though so it may be an improbably unrealistic time to beat, though probably not impossible.

In terms of 1-75 (with sky access and a 37 subjob) on a completely fresh character, my record is 11 playlog days.

Depends if you're using an alt to PL... obviously.


1-37 is a good test though. You ultimately want to do things in one sitting, for a speedrun, so 1-75 isn't really feasible.

Speed running a static arrowburn party to 37?
Leveling a subjobless static to 37?

There's a big range of how much challenge to put in; A powerleveller would make it way too easy, and relying on pubbies would be way too slow
