| Final Fantasy XII Presumably the last "main" game to be released on the PS2, FF12 broke the tradition of Battle Screens. It was also the sixth game ever to receive a perfect 40/40 score from the Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu. |

Leveling Addiction
Well, I'm on my second time through the game. The first time I made sure EVERYTHING was completed before I beat the game. Well, this time I wanted to make things more interesting. After doing the first hunt and before entering the sewers, I went on a leveling quest.
I had one goal in mind: defeat the t-rex in the desert before continuing my journey. Well, I am able to do that now. I'm around level 30 now and am pretty beefed up license board wise.
The cool thing was I made a backup of my "solo" game (aka just Vaan) , then went on to get some team mates. When I got penelo, she was also at level 30. Pretty sweet!

Whew...
That sounds like a lot of work to get your characters to level 30 in the very beginning of the game...O_o

way too much work to do just to get your character a high level, My characters are only level 40-45 and i just finished the draklor lab and there are only 3 at that level (Vaan-45, Balthier-45, basch-43) and Cid was Easy to kill

I have a few spurts of leveling addiction when I play FF12. Nothing like getting to level 30 before taking on anything after the first hunt though. I recently made it to the Pharos. My main party members are at level 72 and my supporting characters are at levels 53, 49, and 45. The license board is completely filled for the lower leveled characters.

I've played around 55 hours my characters are around level 40 and the top half of the license board is filled on most characters with a fair portion of the bottom half filled as well.

Training beyond any recommended level minimum always tarnishes the challenge, in my opinion. If anything, I slightly underlevel for parts of the game to keep the fighting aspect at a constant difficulty. That said... I am guilty of power training within the final dungeons and what-not. In XII's case, it'd be the Pharos. It just... compels me to continue fighting.

Well I dont play the game for the difficulty, I play it for the storyline... so I tend to make sure I have a solid level so that bosses and monsters arent too difficult

I went on a leveling quest the first time I played through. But towards the end, I suppose impatience got the best of me and I just wanted to finish the game, so I quit the leveling quests and simply went in for the kill. You could say that the storyline had a great impact on my decision...

I would sometimes spend whole afternoons just LP grinding, i could leave them in the tunnels, let them get chains up to 300 get about 40k in cash and about 500 liscence points - when i had the Golden Armlet equipped. Took barely any effort too
