what's the very first thing you're going to do...

[Kahnom]

Get my MNK through main scenario and reach lv 60 as fast as possible then Blm
And after that its time to try Machinist.

[Garlyle]

Very first thing?

Unlock the three new classes.

Get four of us in the FC together.

Run Haukke Manor together, in brand new classes, with reading tooltips expressly forbidden.

[Cynthis]

Absolutely first thing, water my plants since after 24 hour maintenance and downloading the game they will be in bad shape.

[Khalithar]

Very first thing?

Unlock the three new classes.

Get four of us in the FC together.

Run Haukke Manor together, in brand new classes, with reading tooltips expressly forbidden.

Brave soul.

[Nadirah]

Race change, class change to bard, haul arse as far as I need to unlock DRK, AST and Machinist, and level AST.

[Necato]

The very first thing: turning in lvl 40/45 crafting leves. Hopefully that should give me a good start on my LTW's road to 60. I still have a few days to decide whether or not I'm doing this for others classes as well (perhaps Fisher).

After this, it will depend on the servers If I can access the NPC/door to start MSQ then that will be it. Once in Ishgard I'll be: walking around like a tourist, unlocking the 3 new jobs to give it a go and see what they're made of, MSQ some more until unlocking the flying mounts, playing tourist in the skies around Ishgard.
And die miserably against the wild chocobos.

[Radacci]

Finish my lv50 hunter log for some bonus XP turn in other quests.
do MSQ with DRG, capping it, working on new dungeons/primals and such.
then pick up one of the new jobs...maybe DRK...but there's some fun changes to many jobs, so i'm interested in most of them, except WHM/PLD/BRD.
WAR or DRK might be really fun with DD stances; i love aggroing stuff, and DD, but tanks generally aren't very strong, but now i can do both i guess - not that i expect either to be as strong as the DDs, but fun anyway.
MCH might be good, cause of melee having trouble hitting stuff that moves, but brd is kinda meh.
i'll cap all the jobs though, probably after MSQ. Then we'll see

[Natsuno]

Race change to Au Ra, check for poetic weapons for new jobs, unlock the new jobs, level to 60 as summoner while enjoying the HW main story. Akh Morn any and everything. :3

Then either level MCH or PLD.

[Balipu]

First will be to run to the dragoon trainer and see if his dialogue was updated or not. News flash, moron. Estinien is back.

[Selli]

I'm going to play a game called Take-a-Shot-Every-Time-you-Fail-to-Login. Might pass out until servers are more stable. :P

Joking aside, I really want to get to the new areas as soon as possible, but my boyfriend and I will be doing everything together, so I dunno how good our pace will be. I'm really excited to try out Astro and flying.
