Hey everyone!
I'm looking for some advice/suggestions on what my next step should be right now in regards to where I am in the game with what I have available and some reasonable goals to look towards.
I'm a returning player but I made a new character with my partner (Who is new to the game) so we could play together. I have NIN, BLU and SAM leveled up to 99, with some +2 pieces and Bayld gear for my NIN, and not much else on my other jobs. My partner in crime has BLM and WHM leveled with some +2 pieces for both that we've been working on in Abyssea.
I'd like to try and 'break in' to some of the newer content but I'm having some troubles trying to decide what would be best for me. Obviously being a new character I don't have any R/M/E and at this point it seems extremely daunting. While I'd enjoy working towards one of the high end weapons, some of the trials (1500 Heavy Metal Plates for example) seem to require an awful lot of gil, which would be fine except I have no idea how people are making 100 million gil to get these weapons in the first place.
I have a few friends to do events with and I'm in a small linkshell so we can do some things but nothing of the large scale variety. Should I level a new job that would be useful in endgame activities? Should we work on Voidwatch or something along those lines? Or should we stick to working on Reives and hope to get into a Skirmish/Delve group, even though I don't have a fancy weapon?
Any advice would be much appreciated, I don't mind putting the time and effort into something, I just want to make sure I'm doing something beneficial and not completely wasting my time
