Kabanaw means it's too easy to level up with what we have now. At least an hour of free 2x a day if not 2 or 3 (assuming you don't get skele dc'd too quickly f3 though that should be fixed at some point) makes things a lot easier. Plus there's always actually partying, which you don't seem to take advantage of. I solo a lot, too, but even soloing is pretty easy. I'm levelling faster now than I was around on my 7x CB when 3rd job was released. No complaints at all.
7-8m an hour is actually about the capped exp for a mob-oriented class at Skele MD (solo). Without the ability to hit multiple platforms at a time (Air Strike, Ults), we are quite limited. That's the key factor in limiting our exp gain - climbing ropes/ladders, jumping from platform to platform, etc. There comes a point where you really can't do much to kill a particular platform of monsters faster without a major increase in damage (16x is about right for a Marksman, where all key damage skills are maxed, and the difference between 1hitting with Pierce and 2hitting requires a large damage increase). Rope/ladder climbing will never be faster, so there isn't anything you can do to improve that. I'm getting about the same as a 15x PA DrK, and until I can solidly 3hit Skeles (whenever I get my DPH PA or when I get Blessing of the Sprite) with Fury I won't be improving that very much.
