==Overview==
Experience Points are the traditional means of leveling throughout the entire Final Fantasy franchise. There are multiple methods of earning Experience Points, but the primary source is through defeating monsters. In Final Fantasy XI, players can level every job they have unlocked. Starting from level 1, progression is made up to level 99 by earning Experience Points. After every level that is earned, the number of points required to advance ([[Experience_Points#Experience_Points.2FLevel_Breakdown|known as TNL or Til-Next-Level]]) gradually increases.

==Level Caps==
Initially, up to level 50 is available to all players. Upon reaching 1 Experience Point from level 51, players are temporarily "capped" from reaching 51. At this point, [[Limit Break Quests]] must be completed every five levels before a player is allowed to proceed with their leveling journey. These were (and sometimes still are) called "Genkai", referring to the Japanese term for Limit.

==Limit Points==
Upon reaching level 75, a player has the ability to start accumulating Limit Points. This system is a way to further enhance your character's statistics and abilities, and are even required for the [[Limit Break Quests]] after level 75. Limit Points can be earned by being in possession of the key item [[Limit breaker]]. Limit Points are earned in-place of Experience Points at a 1:1 ratio, and the rate is affected by Experience Point Bonuses (see below). The mode for earning either Experience Points or Limit Points can be toggled under the menu "Status > Merit Points > Mode Switch". If a player is maxed out on either their current level limit or level 99, this mode automatically switches to Limit Points. Every 10,000 Limit Points earned grants one Merit Point.

==Experience Point Bonuses==
Experience point bonuses apply to effects that increase the amount of experience points that a player receives per kill. This bonus is applied after the "per monster cap" and chain bonuses have been calculated.


Currently, there are seven forms of Experience point bonuses:
== Calculating Experience Points earned ==
*The '''Dedication''' status effect
=== Experience scrolls ===
*Bonus from Moghancement effects
There are several varieties of experience points scrolls which can be obtained from quests or defeating certain monsters. The amount of experience earned is random within a certain range depending on the scroll.
*Permanent [[Rhapsody key items]] from [[Rhapsodies of Vana'diel]]
*[[Kupofried]] [[Trust Magic]]
*[[Corsair's Roll]]
*Bonus from Monster Rearing effects
*The [[Sanction]]/[[Signet]]/[[Sigil]] bonus


===Monthly Adventurer Campaigns===
[[Limit points]] can not be obtained by these items. If a scroll is used which gives experience points that brings a player beyond an experience point cap, excess experience points are lost.
There are two type of campaigns that may run any given month.

The bonus will only wear off after the designated duration time has elapsed, after acquiring the designated amount of bonus points, or when overwritten with another ring that grants either a "Dedication" or "Commitment" bonus. The rings are obtained in many ways.

'''''§''' [[Chariot Band]], [[Emperor Band]], and [[Empress Band]] are mutually exclusive items, you may only possess one of the three items.''


=== Experience point battlefields ===
[[ENM]]-class battlefields reward characters with experience points when the battlefield is won. Only characters which are not in [[K.O.]] status when the victory coffer is opened will receive experience points.


[[Limit points]] can be obtained instead of experience points if a player is on Limit Point accumulation mode, or if they are at level 75 and their experience points are already capped. If neither of these conditions exist, the player will receive experience points and any experience points given beyond an experience point cap are lost.


'''''The rings below are/were only obtainable during certain anniversary events or special events. They may not be currently available or may have been deprecated.'''''
If a player would earn limit points that would cause him to exceed the limit point cap (10 merits accumulated and 9999/10000 limit points), limit points earned beyond the cap are lost instead.


{| class="Standard R-Highlight R1-White C1-Bold sortable" style="text-align: center; width:700px;" BGCOLOR="efeeee"
Furthermore, it is not possible to gain more than one level from ENM experience points. Instead, the player will be capped at 1 experience point short of the next level. For example, if a level 1 player with 0/500 experience points wins 3000 experience points from an ENM, he would only be awarded 1249 experience points leaving him at level 2 and 1 experience point needed for level 3.

*'''Total Cumulative Bonus:''' +50% ~ 150% ( Up to 9,000 to 30,000 Experience Points, depending on the ring, for up to 12 ~ 24 hours.)
The amount of experience points earned by an [[ENM]] is particular to that ENM and the number of players that enter. If the number of players that enter the ENM is equal to or below the recommended amount, all players will receive the base amount of experience points. If the number of players that enter the ENM is above the recommended amount, the experience reward will be reduced by ''(recommended player count) / (actual player count)''


For example, [[Like the Wind]] has a recommended player count of 3 participants. If the battlefield is cleared with 1, 2, or 3 players, everyone will receive 2000 experience points. If the battlefield is cleared with 4 players, everyone will receive 3/4 * 2000 = 1500 experience points. If the battlefield is cleared with 6 players, everyone will receive 3/6 * 2000 = 1000 experience points, and so forth.


===Bonuses from Moghancements===
=== [[Besieged]] ===
Only one of the below items can be used at a time, as you will obtain a Moghancement Key Item. See the [[:Category:Furnishing#Moogle_Powers|Furnishings]] page for further details on Moghancements.
Upon successful defense of [[Al Zahbi]] from invading [[Beastmen]], all players in [[Al Zahbi]] who are not in [[K.O.]] status will receive experience points proportional to their contribution in the battle. This value is capped depending on the level of the beastmen attack and, generally, players who are active during [[Besieged]] will contribute enough to receive the capped amount.


*[[File:Vana'clock icon.png|25px|link=]] '''[[Moghancement: Bounty]]''' - Only obtained by placing a [[Vana'clock]] in Mog House.
Limit points can be obtained instead of experience points if a player is on Limit Point accumulation mode, or if they are at level 75 and their experience points are already capped. If neither of these conditions exist, the player will receive experience points and any experience points given beyond an experience point cap are lost.
**Experience Points and Capacity Points: +10% while active. (Does not stack with [[Moglification: Experience Boost]])


If a player would earn limit points that would cause him to exceed the limit point cap (10 merits accumulated and 9999/10000 limit points), limit points earned beyond the cap are lost instead.


*[[File:Murrey Grisaille icon.png|25px|link=]] '''[[Moglification: Experience Boost]]''' - Only obtained by placing a [[Murrey Grisaille]] in Mog House.
Static experience point bonuses are also given if the [[Al Zahbi]] defense is successful in defeating sub bosses or mega bosses that accompany the Beastman forces. See the [[Besieged]] page for more details.
**Experience Points: +15% while active. (Does not stack with [[Moghancement: Bounty]])


=== Experience Points from killing monsters ===
You can obtain Experience Points through killing monsters which con [[Easy Prey]] or above to the highest level party or alliance member. However, monsters which are killed while [[Call for Help|called for help]] on, or monsters which did not fully recover after being [[Charm]]ed will yield no experience points.


===Rhapsody Key Items===
[[Limit points]] can be obtained instead of experience points if a player is on Limit Point accumulation mode, or if they are at level 75 and their experience points are already capped. If neither of these conditions exist, the player will receive experience points and any experience points given beyond an experience point cap are lost.
*[[File:Grl. Chest Key icon.png|25px|link=]] '''Rhapsody Key Items''' - A few key items may be obtained via the [[Rhapsodies of Vanadiel Missions]] story line. They are permanent and automatically obtained key items with no additional requirements. Each one of them provides a +30% bonus.

***'''Total Cumulative Bonus:''' +180%


===Miscellaneous Bonuses===
If a player would earn limit points that would cause him to exceed the limit point cap (10 merits accumulated and 9999/10000 limit points), limit points earned beyond the cap are lost instead.
*[[File:Moogle Cap icon.png|25px|link=]] '''Trust: Kupofried''' - Only obtained with [[Cipher: Kupofried]]. Grants a "Dedication" and "Commitment" Geomancy type aura bonus to both Experience Points and Capacity Points. Kupofried's bonus stacks with the enchantment bonus granted by rings. He cannot be attacked or damaged by enemies.
**'''Total Cumulative Bonus:''' +10%


When fighting solo or in a party, the experience point yield from a single monster is:<br>
:''min(base * level_modifier * player_share * monster_bonus, per_monster_cap) * chain_bonus * experience_bonus * pet_penalty''<br>
Decimals should be truncated after each multiplication step.


*[[File:Corsair Die icon.png|25px|link=]] '''[[Corsair's Roll]]''' - Grants a "Dedication" and "Commitment" bonus to both Experience Points and Capacity Points. The effect will wear off upon timing out or upon death, and can be dispelled.
*When in level-capped areas, this value will be calculated twice: once using actual player levels (calculation A), and once using player levels under influence of the level cap (calculation B).
**'''Total Cumulative Bonus:''' +8% ~ 24%
**If the player is accumulating experience points, the greater of calculation A and ''50%'' of calculation B is awarded as experience points.
**If the player is accumulating limit points, the greater of the two calculations is awarded as limit points.




===Monster Rearing Bonuses===
'''base''' is the base experience value the monster gives, with respect to monster level and party level.<br>
*[[File:Category-Behemoth.jpg|50px|link=]] '''[[Monster Rearing]]''' - Certain monsters raised in your [[Mog Garden]] can grant you an Experience Points Bonus with the Cheer. The Cheers are key items obtained after your raised monster reaches a certain level of happiness following particular raising pattern. The cheers also grant other bonuses toward the player's skill gain rates, stats increases, certain resistances, alter ego utility, and a few others.
''base'' is calculated using the difference between the monster level (''mlvl'') and the highest level player or pet to have acted on the monster since it was at 100% health with no debilitating status effects (''blvl'').

:Indented creatures are along a similar path and a higher evolution from the creature above it.
'''level_modifier''' is a modifier which adjusts the amount of experience earned based on the level difference between the player and the maximum level participant in the battle. The effect of the modifier is to penalize grossly underlevelled players which join a party.<br>
''level_modifier'' is dependent on the player's level (''plvl'') and the player or pet level used to calculate ''base'' above (''blvl'').
If ''blvl > plvl + 7'' or ''blvl > 50'', then ''level_modifier = plvl / blvl''. Otherwise, ''level_modifier = TNL(plvl) / TNL(blvl)'', where ''TNL(x)'' is the experience points needed to obtain the next level at level x. For example, if the highest party member is 20 and the player is 18, ''level_modifier = 4200 / 4600''


{| width="50%"
'''player_share''' is a modifier which adjusts the amount of experience earned based on the number of people in the party or alliance.<br>
| valign="top" colspan="2"|
When in a single party, ''player_share'' depends on the maximum number of people in the party at any time while fighting the monster. The value of the variable is listed below in the ''normal share'' column.
*As of the [[2007 - (03/08/2007) The March Version Update is Here!|March 2007 update]], players in conquest areas use an alternate formula to obtain player share, listed under the ''signet share'' column below.

Levelup.jpg

Overview

Experience Points are the traditional means of leveling throughout the entire Final Fantasy franchise. There are multiple methods of earning Experience Points, but the primary source is through defeating monsters. In Final Fantasy XI, players can level every job they have unlocked. Starting from level 1, progression is made up to level 99 by earning Experience Points. After every level that is earned, the number of points required to advance (known as TNL or Til-Next-Level) gradually increases.

Level Caps

Initially, up to level 50 is available to all players. Upon reaching 1 Experience Point from level 51, players are temporarily "capped" from reaching 51. At this point, Limit Break Quests must be completed every five levels before a player is allowed to proceed with their leveling journey. These were (and sometimes still are) called "Genkai", referring to the Japanese term for Limit.

Limit Points

Upon reaching level 75, a player has the ability to start accumulating Limit Points. This system is a way to further enhance your character's statistics and abilities, and are even required for the Limit Break Quests after level 75. Limit Points can be earned by being in possession of the key item Limit breaker. Limit Points are earned in-place of Experience Points at a 1:1 ratio, and the rate is affected by Experience Point Bonuses (see below). The mode for earning either Experience Points or Limit Points can be toggled under the menu "Status > Merit Points > Mode Switch". If a player is maxed out on either their current level limit or level 99, this mode automatically switches to Limit Points. Every 10,000 Limit Points earned grants one Merit Point.

For further information, see the Merit Points page.

Experience Point Bonuses

Experience point bonuses apply to effects that increase the amount of experience points that a player receives per kill. This bonus is applied after the "per monster cap" and chain bonuses have been calculated.

Currently, there are seven forms of Experience point bonuses:

Monthly Adventurer Campaigns

There are two type of campaigns that may run any given month.

Double Experience Points Campaign

  • When this Monthly Adventurer Campaign is active, all players simply earn double the amount of Experience Points.
    • The first 18 Experience Point campaigns were a simple double up gain rate mechanic. After these, they changed the way the campaign worked and it became the chain experience campaign.

Chain Experience Bonus Points Campaign

  • When this Monthly Adventurer Campaign is active, the base Experience Points from a monster is doubled. The exception is the first monster, as that one yields normal gains.
    • Depending on the number of chains, Experience Points obtained is double to triple the normal rate. See the below tables for bonus values.
Chain Count Experience Points Multiplication
1 x1.2
2 x1.25
3 x1.3
4 x1.4
5-9 x1.5
10-19 x1.575
20-29 x1.65
30-39 x1.725
40-49 x1.8
50-59 x1.875
60-69 x1.95
70-79 x2.025
80-89 x2.1
90-99 x2.175
100+ x2.25

Chain Experience Bonus Points Campaign - PLUS!

  • When this Monthly Adventurer Campaign is active, the chain bonus campaign described above is in effect. Additionally, items that grant the Dedication effect are also doubled.
    • An item that grants Experience Points +150% is increased to a bonus of +300%. Additionally, a maximum bonus of 30,000 is increased to 60,000.
      • Example during the campaign: (120 EXP x 2) x 1.5 x 2 = 720. With a dedication band active: (120 EXP × 2) + 720 = 960 EXP.
      • This has an effect on all experience point bonus items, not just the ones that offer +150%/30,000. The above was an example.
