Or perhaps the Tonberry King with it's signature Toybox attack?

You should visit more Limsa Lominsa, best city in the game (could it have been, if there are not 2 class guilds since beta we can't join) ^^

But don't do it only for Arcanist, but for every class. You begin as THM and then you need to get a permission (buy it or quest it) to use another weapon type. Each weapon type get a own permission key item.

No because those are the base classes they're wanting arcanist to be an "advanced" class but it's not going to be one. The advanced versions are the Jobs that stem from the classes.

However I get what you mean that's why I keep telling said person it's not going to happen

The first seven - the old seven - are normal jobs. They're common and not special in there own right. The new two can be closed door guilds - as they have been - and therefor you need to get accepted in. (Therefor getting your first book to level.) Thats what I want. The quest to get your first book doesn't even need to be extravagant. Just something.

I don't want people to first buy the game, then see the two new classes and select them at the same time the mass media of old 50's do. New players - not to be mean to them - should have to use the old ones to be able to play jobs we already know everything about. Set X skills, level X subs to level, these are the stat forumla's, ext.

Also, think about it in FFXI terms. Would you like to see someone start a character and BAM I'm a summoner! Oh hey they gave me every summon too! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Or, like samurai. They made your level 1 weapon integrated into the quest. Now I'm not saying I want something as complex, but similar. You need to earn your first weapon. But buy it for 840 gil like all the others.

No.

That's... pretty dumb. Why should anyone at level 50 have any priority over anyone just starting out, especially since restarting the whole game was the point behind 2.0 in the first place? Way to expand the community there, buddy. How would starting out with Arcanist be ANY different than starting as a Conjurer or a Marauder? What sage lore is required before someone can enter the lofty peaks that are the Arcanist guild?

Would not happen.
You need to be lv 30 Arcanist and another class level 15 first to be a Summoner

People. Gotta love how thick they can be sometimes. I give up trying to argue this point, and just hope SE doesn't give books away(And whatever the second class weapon will be) willy nilly...

Unless SE only releases Art like wow did for Death Knight. It wont matter if they just give it to you or you have to do a question to unlock it. All the people who have the DoW and M will pick it to level it up. And alot of new people will most likly do the Monkey see monkey do, new player " Oh every seems to be leveling this job Art must be a good class!" /goes to get it.
