PLEASE do NOT allow level skipping in 4.0

The way I'd implement it, would be to make you have to level one job normally, and then you could use the jump potion. But, you would not skip any content, and would have to clear all of that roles tests in the hall of novice in order to do group content as that role, and would also have to clear that class/job's job quests up to the level of the content you are trying to queue for, in order to be able to. Level 60 would still be the maximum you could go to, but at least you'd get some experience before going into the new leveling content.

That would entirely defeat the purpose. The main purpose is to allow a new player to catch up to their friends quickly.

Also, the idea that someone would need to "train" by leveling "manually" has been debunked dozens of times over in this thread. People can, as of right now, completely avoid any sort of group content and get to cap solely through FATEs and other solo content.
