Yo! New to MMOs, have a few questions!

[Elysaine]

Having a ton of fun! I finally got into one of the Classes that required a second job to advance.

Question: Would it be recommended to grind in all of the job classes to lvl 15, 30 for any reason? Would I need to do so for any MSQ?

http://www.ffxivguild.com/ff14-drago...-skills-guide/ is a pretty good listing for when it comes to cross class skills for your Dragoon. You want to level up Pugilist and Marauder as well, since they provide skills which your Dragoon can use

If in the future you wish to try different classes, well then you need to level up the rest as well I think.

I now have all the fighting classes at some level. Lowest 32 highest 60. But my character started originally as an Arcanist. Arcanist has 2 jobs attached to it. Summoner and Scholar.

To become a Summoner I had to level up Thaumaturge to 15, and for Scholar I also needed to level up Conjurer to 15. Next to that Summoner can also use Archer skills. So I needed to level that one as well.

So basically I ended up leveling 4 classes just to get the nice cross class skills for my Summoner and Scholar.

If you wish to play Dragoon only for now, stick with the class and have fun. You can always try other classes later

In fact you need to level thm to 26 for swiftcast, especially when playing one of the healer classes and it's defiantly useful as smn. WHM gotta be level'd to 34 for stone skin, not that it's useful as a scholar but on whm and astro you should have that.

Certainly, only used Archer as an example. Didn't go into specific abilities

Swiftcast is a must have for all casters in my opinion. Stoneskin I use on all my healers. I have all 3 of them at level 60
