Job Story for 5.0

[MrThinker]

So with the job storyline changes, how do you think they may play out story/lore wise?

From what I we know so far...

1) Job Role Quests are REQUIRED! So players must complete at least 1 of the job Role Storyline to progress in the Main Scenario Quests but ONLY ONE.

2) there are 4 different Job Role Quests being Tank, Healer, DPS Melee, and DPS Range.

3) Only new Job quest will be unlocked on level 80 only.

I believe Yoshi-P stated in an interview that the level 80 job quests play out like "We've been on the First doing darkness shenanigans, let's go back to the Source and see how our Job guys are holding up". I've also heard that the level 80 job quests will be relatively longer to make up for the fact there is only 1 job quest. Also, in regards to Role Quest divisions, it is not DPS Range and Melee, but DPS Physical and Magic. The slide from Live Letter 51 introducing them had a picture of a tank, a healer, a ranged physical and a caster to illustrate the point.

I honestly would like this format of 1 long role quest instead of multiple quests unlocked at certain levels. just finished the DRK quest up to 70 and I think the pacing suffered quite a bit :/

Also, imo, the job quests in SB felt kind of... underwhelming regarding its own dramatic development... It's like, part 1: kill some things... part 2: return to the NPC to kill a couple more things... The real important events always happening at the last phases, close and at level 70. I suppose one big well written quest can achieve a similar result.
