Archanist Question(s)

lol, all of a sudden? i guess 5 years is pretty fast...

Perhaps that was a poor choice of words on my part. However you get the drift. Why so few Arcanist's before, and now everyone is invited to take up the book? These are things they could have explained through an introductory quest. Learning the first few spells and gaining some background knowledge on the roll.

i dont see why this is a reason to get you panties in a twist. ther were lots of people in 1.0 that maxed their jobs and classes. this at least gives them something to do that will give them the full 2.0 experience. dont come down on this so hard. i'm sure future expansions will be something to work for.

I'm not mad at them honestly, but i'm disappointed. I have high standards. I figured people would have been on board with a quest, considering how much people have been begging for more solo oriented lore quests/leveling. This forum really confuses me a lot.

Anyways, I must retire for the evening because i'm tired.

I fully expect this to be explained at the guild when I get my first book, just like the history behind the other guilds was explained when I picked up my first weapon there. Since getting the first weapon is always accompanied by getting a simple quest, in essence you are getting this already.

*cough* class quests...
Nothing in the game is happening in realtime. And they cant add everything, just cause you want it; or add explanatory quests just cause you want reasons
the arcanist guild was there from the start, so you were supposed to be able to pick it up from the start, or early on; but they never got around to adding it. that's devs faulght, not some lore issue. The ARR team don't need to add lore to cover up a screw-up on 1.0 teams part. And if you wanna be picky every class should need an introductory quest chain to unlock. But if you got Arcanist as STARTING class, your char obviously has it's own background story, and reason for being Arcanist, and being there *wherever you start the game*
On a side note i find it funny people complaining about stuff in a game, they havn't even played yet; so how do you know how it will be? you only know you can start off as Arcanist, and that's no stranger than starting off as THM or anything else.
