I know it's been talked about, but seriously. No Jump Potions, here is why.

If this is someones first mmo, I doubt they'd use a jump potion right from the start unless someone they trusted reccomended it.

They never played this game.its not like most mmos now days.if they played wow or bdo or bnd they may have wrong assumption.
If you dont do somthing you dont know if you like it or not.

If its a person with mmo experience then they probably have some idea of what they do/don't enjoy in an mmo. Unless FFXIV handles its fetch quests in a way that is "not like most mmos now days" then I don't see what this person would be missing out on.

You go to the first new dungeon in 4.0.
2 people you got from df dont know any thing.they cant use skills or even know what aoe is.how fun it be for you? Now what if one of them is the tank or the healer.
I dont say all peole using the jump potbe like this but lets stop live in a fairytale.

Although everyone today (aside from people who inherited or bought leveled accounts) has been through the leveling experience, the player skill levels are all over the place. The player who want to learn will put in the effort to learn while the people who don't want to learn will continue to be thorns in our sides. I'd be against the potions if they denied players the ability to go back into old dungeons to learn, but the potions don't do that.

Lets stop living in a fairy tale where experiencing fetch quests and story cut scenes directly translate into player skill.

Its translat to skill because you dont get all the skills in one go but one at a time,getineg used to it and then get the next one.
