technically you still can make two different avatars for each job as you would do in any game nothing stopping you. I think what looked good on paper (different jobs on same character) isn't panning out sense you can't repeat regular quests.

My goal was to use myth to gear out Warrior and CT to gear out scholar. This artificial lockout for CT makes it impossible for me to have Scholar geared out in time to be of any use to my FC in COIL. I'll have to prioritize Warrior for the next 2 months. Then spend the next 2 months trying to gear out scholar.

If this was any other mmo, I would have 2 characters. As soon as Warrior was raid/dungeon capped for teh week, I would log off and onto my scholar and proceed to do the same. Parrallel progression, options, variety, FUN!

Now, FFXIV says, the BEST part of our game is that you "DONT NEED TO ROLL OTHER CHARACTERS. YOU CAN BE ALL CLASSES/JOBS on ONE CHARACTER!"

Really now..................

SE, you have artificially capped my ability to play other jobs. One job will always be behind the other, let's not even start with people who have 3 of 4 50s. What was once the best part of the game (multiple jobs) is the worst part based on the mechanic.

Had I known, I would have leveled separate classes. Healer, Tank, and one DPS.
