Fundamentally, all players will be beginning from the same starting point, and elements such as job levels, the gear you have, and the magic you have learned will not play a part.
You described this event as something one could play independently of the rest of the game and that though they may cross over at times this will simply be "achievement elements similar to synthetic atma, while making it so they are not an essential aspect".

Yet, the fact that, if we have not played mage jobs, we need to spend millions of gil on magic scrolls and a bunch of time on levelling every job that can cast spells that a monster has is "working as intended"? I came back to this game solely for this, which you said would be fine but it isn't at all if I wish to experience a large portion of it and even if I wish to be in effective in battle in many cases.

Camate, you translated Iwagami's message more than a month ago where he stated that he will be posting in the "coming days" with a response to the magic issue - any update please whatsoever?
