Job Auto-leveling: Yes or No?

[grandm]

I don't think they should have separate XP bars. The reason being that Jobs are specialized and specific to party play. That would mean, or should mean, that you would need to party from level 1 and all the way up.

Partying at level 1 would probably seem pointless to a lot of people and they would just solo... then what was the point of making party based jobs just to have you solo to 15 or higher?

To reinforce this, if you solo on a job to 15-20 or higher and start partying after that why not just have the job start at level 20-25? Oh wait, you mean like level 30 when you can unlock the job?




The people who played through the past year have an advantage, think about the 600,000 or more people who quit and don't have level 50 classes. They will start partying with the jobs at level 30 as they should be. It makes sense to me.

i can see your point. but also ppl are always complaining about other ppl that have not learned how to play there role in a party. if a job stared early and forced ppl to party early then that would give ppl time to learn there job. but i can see alot of ppl that have solo'ed all the way to lv 50 got a new job, gone to join a party coz now they have to. and there going to ruin it for the rest of the party coz the don't know how to play as a team

But honestly, this game has very few skills / abilities in general. A lot of them are SKILL I and SKILL II. There isn't a whole lot that you can do to "mess" really. If you're playing an MMO and don't know how to play by the time you get max level then having you re-level isn't going to help.

Any real MMO player (or other game) is going to be able to read and know what to do...

All I'm really saying is having people group up mobs and AoE'ing them down doesn't teach you how to play your class or do end-game content. Spamming WS on my Mrd didn't teach me how to tank with it. Spamming WS on my Lancer didn't teach me how to be a good DD. Telling people to (gather together) (buffs) didn't teach me how to be a good mage.

You could hand me any level 50 and I could play the class just by reading the skills. Maybe there are some tips and tricks here but people who really want to perform are going to be asking / reading how to be the best they can.
