Nothing good comes from incentivising players to tailor their playstyle around maximising rested.
Some examples:- In order to maximise rested I barely ever log off outside of town, as a result I barely ever feel the need to come on and hunt for hour when I can as it wouldn't be worth the effort I barely ever level off rested. If I do feel the need to play when I have no rested I end up crafting or worse healing and neither of them lead to me wanting to play the game for as long as I could have if I was free to hunt all day. Crafting wouldn't be so bad if I was focused on that alone, but because of rested you never reach a point when you can solely hunt or craft for days at a time and so you are stuck in an awkward limbo. Due to only ever levelling on rested I've mentally reached a place where I'm happy only levelling for the time it takes to use rested. The problem with that is playing less in one sitting doesn't make you any less likely to not want to play at all the following day which results in you playing less over time. There's also the age old rested problem that it works better for higher levels than lower levels. Now it wouldn't be so bad if the server was in a state where you'd want to mentally override the signals the game is sending you but as there's no real value in rushing to the cap I don't see the point of trying.

I understand what you're saying. I do like the idea of rested, but at the same time I am waiting a few days to go for a hunt because I cba to log on and do 18% rested when I can wait for 50%.

I would never hunt with no rested... it’s just unbearable if you ask me

Get rid of rested but x4 the rates so that normal play is the same as 2x event imo - that speed is a bearable grind for far more people.
