Where is the petition for jobs to start at level 1?

Lol is funny that you already level'ed up Classes such as Gladiator and is the base of a Paladin Job, having to relevel paladin is like telling me releveling Gladiator again.

Well since you use alot of the same abilities to level classes anybody could argue that leveling MRD is leveling PUG but with a different weapon.

Just because it'll have a sword and a shield and be based off GLA does not mean it'll be identical, and besides even if you're a pro GLA, if someone smacked you with holiness and new magic and now you're a PLD you'll be a beginner and won't hold a candle to a veteran PLD.

If I recall correctly you don't need to be lv50 to upgrade your class to a job, so if I upgraded my PUG30 to MNK I'll be stuck as MNK30 until I get PUG up? or can I level up my MNK instead to 50? what will happen to my PUG? will it auto-level with my MNK or will it be stuck @30?

I'm hoping that Jobs will be a whole different animal from classes and follow a different independent system to "level up" probably be based off quests, that teach you new abilities and advance your Job level/rank/status.

Every exp you earn are going direct to your current class. The jobs has no level and no exp bar, it's a part of the classes.
Don't think about it like upgrade.

If you guys want to level the jobs, stop to play the classes after level 30 and wait for 1.21

The Best way to think of it is the following, No mater what identifier the game puts on you, Pug or Mnk you are gaining experience with hand to hand weapons.

Think of progression in the terms of skill/ability acquisition. You passively gain skills from the weapon every two levels(weapon class). the weapons attached "Job" on the other hand progress via completing quests every 5 levels after the unlock point.
