    I seem to remember Yoshi P saying that they expect mostly veteran players to use jump potions for alts/alt jobs...clearly he must have been confused right? IF people want to boost all the jobs to 60 how exactly does that have an effect on you? If people want to pay $25 per job to 60 (which is obviously not max level anyways) who cares? It's not like someone grinding PotD from 1-60 is going to know any more about their job than someone who boosts and spends an hour on it in an actual dungeon.

    Yeah who cares about EX Primals, raids, level 70 dungeons, 24-mans... it's all about that PotD/Shatter leveling experience!

    I honestly feel bad for people who have every job leveled, they must have nothing to do now.

    True but there other content they skipping, doubt they going to go do fates or older dungeon and only focus on end game content which is like 10% of the game cause the old end game content just becomes regular content (which they won't want to do) since it replaced by new end game content

    There is always something to do once you have every job leveled. At the end of HW I was working on my 5th relic, gearing up my alts that I never bothered to really gear much, and working on crafters(I don't really consider them part of the jobs, as to me the jobs are the ones that go into battle).

    It's not like this is a new problem caused by jump potions.
    I know a ton of people who just leveled to 60 through the MSQ who never bothered with the ARR raids or trials or just did them unsynced, if someone wants to do that older content they'll do it, if they don't they won't, jump potions aren't changing that.

    Only need 1 job jump potion to get to that proper content though. Not multiple.

    Levelling In this game is actually very fast. I mean so fast players don't even bother with gear cos you've out levelled in within a couple of hours of getting it.

    Amazes me what people consider a long time these days. But levelling does not take a long time at all

    Or your RNG just sucks so bad you're stuck with low level dungeons for most of your roulettes, or you just don't get gear for your class in chests, and are stuck with the Augmented Ironworks/Shire gear for the whole 10 levels until you can use the upgraded stuff(yes, this happens to me on the norm...I used Ironworks on my RDM until 60, then Shire to 70, where I had farmed the 300 gears with my DRG from the EX rou, and same sort of thing with my WHM/AST going from 50-60

I am not even sure if that healer had swiftcast..I was rezzing as a summoner the whole time..So if people jump and take their time to learn their job before they go into group content, then it would be fine with me...but if those people jump and go into content without a plan of what to truly do..well then this will be on the back of the rest of the team.
    Yes, but you have those players regardless of jump potions or not. I cannot count the people that have absolutely no idea after 50 levels, after 60 levels, heck not even after 70 levels.
    SMNs at 70 doing sub 2k DPS on AoE pulls, WHMs never using any kind of HoT, tanks spamming their aoe emnity on single targets... I treat them the same way. I don't care if anyone potioned or levelled - sit down and learn the god damn game, it's not that difficult to get a basic idea.
    If you want to learn it you will, be it while levelling or at lvl 60. If you don't care, you won't learn at any point of the game.

    I know right? A sense of accomplishment is overrated. I'm guessing you guys have bought or are going to buy your college degrees from wonky websites too right?

    I'm a believer that a player who starts from scratch, learns the fundamentals and levels on their own is going to be a far superior player when he hits max level than a player who buys a potion that gets them 3/4 the way there, while missing a great storyline too.

    Sure, you get to play with your friends, just make sure they don't mind you KO'ing their party over and over again, and expect that most endgame parties will just boot you over and over again ...
