If I could convence you of playing any job it would be Puppetmaster. I have played all 20 jobs and I must say it has the most "depth" of all the jobs in my opinion. That being said it is NOT an easy job to play and requires you to know the mechanics of Overload/Burden/Automaton A.I. (how your Automaton thinks so to speak)/as well as the strengths and weakness of each pet and the master himself to perform optimally, but after the new PUPdate it will be relatively "easier" and more enjoyable to play than ever. It is a very cool job that draws its strength through versatility and in my opinion is as strong as the Master is creative! I don't know how much you know about the Puppetmaster, but most people think it is weak because they failed at it themselves, but I promise, once you do learn it, you can solo Monsters that alliances fall before! Too bad your not on Fenrir :/, but if you ever do come, you've got a friend!
