Please start the new jobs at level 1

Personally I was gutted by this announcement. The leveling experience is on of my favorite things about playing RPGs and they've just cut out 50% of that.

Only about 25% of it, really, considering the 1-30 content goes by faster than the stuff afterwards.

And I do agree that leveling is fun and part of the game... but by the time the expansion hits, I'll have already pretty much memorized all the 1-30 content available backwards, forwards, sideways, slantways and crossways. There won't be side quests to do, since I already did them all leveling my other classes. It'll just be the grind. I don't mind skipping that part, and it saves the devs from having to come up with new low level areas to keep things fresh in.

Just in time for Brayflox Longstop armor pieces.

I mean, I'm sorry to hear that you feel that way. But as stated, this is a fair compromise - for both parties. Those who don't want to level 1-50 have had a part of the grind cut out and will start the leveling at a point where it's not mind-numbing tedium. Those who wanted the full 1-50 experience get the benefit of leveling in it. It's a very fair and equitable middle-ground.

You still get the level up experience. before this announcement we knew we had to be level 30 in a job/class anyways. At least we know our levels won't go back to 1 or 15 . You get new job at 30, you start at 30 and the cap is at 60 now so thats more than the normal job leveling of 30-50.

Don't worry! Tam-Tara and Toto-rak will continue to be the most common Low Level Roulette dungeons

[Mirakumi]

Heavensward jobs don't open until new expansion area if you haven't figured out how to play 1-30 by then your doing something wrong.

Also FF11 new jobs always based around 30, it's not new if you know what your doing. EMBRACE THY LOVE.

[Chiramu]

We've only got 30-MAX for the other Jobs, I don't see why it would change for the new Jobs.

[Hysterior]

i remember leveling up scholar was very weird
want to be a healer? do 30 lv of DPS first then you become a healer... Yay...
glad we start straight away with Jobs

[AzraelX]

So do we need to complete all the main story quest before we have access to the new jobs?
