new player here and this game is alot ..last mmo placed was dc universe online.
1.) are jobs of land and hand necessary?
2.) for a job class, do you need the required secondary class at level 15 or any other class at level 15?
3.) what is materia
4.) the 3 new job classes, do we start off with those job classes or is every job requires a level 30 and a level 15 secondary job?

1) land and hand jobs aren't necessay for end game content but probably encouraged.
2)not sure
3)think of materia as a gem that you put into an armor or weapon socker to increase stats
4) not sure
New too but hoped I helped alil
Welcome!
1. Only if you want to do the optional Ixal beastmen daily quests at level 50. But otherwise levelling crafting and gathering classes is entirely up to you.
2. No, each Job has a specific secondary class it requires to be at level 15 before you can unlock it. You just can't choose any class to level for it sadly.
3. Materia is a means of customizing gear by infusing it with extra stats or elemental properties. Not all gear can be infused with materia though - only equipment that has circular 'slots' in it can be infused. Materia is gained by spiritbonding gear to 100% and then converting it, the ability to both convert gear into materia and infuse gear with materia is gained by completing two specific quests at level 19 from the Goblin NPC Mutamix found in Central Thanalan (in a camp far to the north of Black Brush Station). Although once you unlock the ability to convert materia you do not require a crafting class to actually convert spiritbound gear to materia (as it's a 'default' ability you can equip on your Hotbar regardless of class or Job), you do need a crafting class at a specific level to infuse materia into gear, as well as a special consumable item that can be bought from the Market Board that acts as a catalyst to do so. The in-game tutorials that appear when you unlock the abilities will guide you through the basics of the system.
4. Nothing is really known at this stage, other than apparently they have no base class. How that will work is anyone's guess though. But SE will reveal more info prior to the expansion's launch.
To point 4 a friend mentioned 2 new classes will be added while there are 3 new jobs so either 1 of the new classes will be 2 different jobs or one of the old classes will get an additional job (well only what i heard of tho) :/
