Exp Merit Camp Guide
Camps: An Overview
A single element of gameplay is a common thread through the Final Fantasy series: The party.
Experience and merit parties are crucial in FFXI. The grind to level 75 can take months, even years, for players to finish. Having fun, productive experience parties with maximum convenience and minimal downtime is goal shared by all adventurers of Vana'diel. The purpose of this guide is to help people find and prepare for their experience parties. Use this guide to find information such as where you should camp, what kind of monsters you'll face and what kind of tank you should have.
Helpful tips
Following some general guidelines will help you have more consistent, productive experience parties:
- Tanks are most effective when their levels are in the upper end of a camp's level range.
- Mages and support jobs can be at or slightly below the low end of a camp's level range.
- The ideal level spread between party members is a three-level maximum (i.e. levels of 45, 46 and 47 would be good; levels of 45, 46 and 48 would be bad). This guideline only matters when not using the Level Sync feature.
- The amount of exp/kill your party receives is based on the highest-level member of your party.
- Always remember to get Signet, Sigil or Sanction.
- Carry a warp scroll and a reraise item if nobody in your party can raise.
