Thanks everyone. I had to ask simply because this is my first time playing Final Fantasy XI and I wanted to get the most out of the game, and that includes end-game content which I am very keen to experience. I just don't want to be turned away from such oppourtunities simply because of my Job.

I must admit, trying to pick a job out of the amount there are is like trying to decide a life-changing decision hahaha. I still have no idea what to pick.
