Road to 70 buff suddenly gone?

[Kenji1134]

Anyone else lose their Road to 70 buff (if they had it before) either today or yesterday? - Without having anything hit 70...

Did your world status change from preferred?

[Seraph522]

The buff lasts for 90 days or until your world stops being 'preferred', whichever comes last. So if your character is 90 days old at this point and your world is no longer preferred or stopped being preferred for a time, you lose the buff. That's true whether or not you got to level 70.

Ah, okay. Seems I dragged my feet for too long, leveling everything equally. Made it into the mid 60s with all combat classes in 3 months of playing after work.

I should note, since my wording maybe wasn't clear, you don't lose the Road to 70 buff once a job hits 70; you just lose the buff on that specific job (though the permanent loss always applies as I described earlier). And if you got most of your combat classes into the 60s before it faded, it sounds like you got plenty of use out of the buff; the bulk of leveling will be done for those.
