Not if you have an energy account. When I finally got to ruby level, I noticed that the exp/energy ratios have increased beyond 2 for many jobs, allowing me to power-level for about 300 levels (and still counting). I was only 1500-ish a few days ago. Now I'm level 1800.

True, the energy requirement is high, but that's nothing if it allows you to level immediately, again and again and again, non-stop. I basically have an infinite pool of energy (until whenever I stop leveling), and have no use for energy packs.
