At level 30, the Arcanist class splits into Scholar and Summoner, so I did both branches. From that point on, I basically only did the Squadron dungeons and the class job quests up to 30. Then I had to only do a couple of levequests involving the Archanist class to get the bonus experience. So what I did is turn in a couple of levequests involving fish as well as 10 levequests involving Coffee Biscuits. I had to do 5 different levequests and 20 total levequests. For example, two of the challenges involved levequests. I also made use of the Challenge Log to get more experience. When I traveled to a zone to kill a type of mob, I would also do all the quests in the area as well. I used the log as a guide as where to visit as much as what mobs I needed to kill. The class quests are a necessity because the quests provide new spells. I based my activities around the Arcanist class quests and the Hunting Log. Right now, I have divided my leveling efforts into two phases. Right now I'm at level 46 and am one Squadron dungeon run away from running The Aurum Vale. But until I reached level 45 and completed the job quests, I could get away with only one set of gear. Which, of course, requires two sets of gear at higher levels. The Arcanist path is unusual, because while leveling the Scholar job, I also level the Summoner. While I wait for patch 5.5 to drop in Final Fantasy XIV, I have taken to leveling a new job, Scholar.
