When are new classes being added ?

[silentwindfr]

Not till likely 3.0
So a good year +

3.0 will be in 2 years, and we will get new class and raise of level cap before this.... was said a looot of time while the beta and live letter.

@drakeos: did you try to do dungeon?

While it was way back at E3, Yoshi said he had *hoped* to release one or two new classes BEFORE the first expansion is released. That is the only real actual Dev comment that I have seen on the matter. No indication what new class or job though.

How are you "stuck at 32"? There are main story quests, side quests, hunting logs, levequests, fates, dungeons... they practically made it so just logging in would give you experience, how are you "stuck"?

I think the dungeon/primal quests can be a roadblock to opening up new story/area quests if he's having trouble getting groups for those.

I'm waiting for Musketeer more than Thief and other future Jobs and Classes because I've always enjoied range classes as DD and the ones that use guns the most.

Also, they have been trying to get Musketeer into Final Fantasy 14 since 1.0.

If there is a new class not far from release as part of a Major Patch release update(Major update release not Expansion release because new content can be released as Major Patch updates as well) then it will certainly be Musketeer.

(That Musketeer Guild in Coral Tower really enjoy taunting me with all those Musketeer class NPCs and musketeer Class Symbol next to the Marauder Guild.)

For me I did not run out of quests to do until I was level 46. Then I just did some FATE's till 49 where I could pick up the main story to which if you follow, there are a heaps of new quests at the Scions main base. I easily hit 50 and only had 3 levels where I needed to do some FATE's. If you are leveling a second toon such as myself then, I feel your pain.

As for new jobs/classes, I'd really like to see them asap but, I think SE has bigger fish to fry atm. The game is new, they can't just spew out heaps of new content asap

Actually, they said new Classes and level cap increases would come before an expansion, because "all the legacy players are at 50 already".

Where did you see this? I saw that the first draft for the expansion is complete.

GE- With ARR we’ll see Arcanist added with Summoner shortly after the game launches. Are there any other classes or jobs you’d like to see added? And will these be added in patches or expansions?

Yoshida- What I would like to see right?

First of all, we are planning a new race for an expansion pack. For the classes and jobs, we will introduce them through patches because all of the Legacy players have level 50 jobs anyway. When we introduce new classes and jobs we will probably increase the level cap at the same time.

About what I want to introduce- it’s more like what I think I have to introduce. Something related to guns because the (musketeer) guild in the game. Something related to that I think I have to introduce.

Also I do feel that scouting classes are lacking so I want to bring in Theif, Ninja and those that have to do with stealth. Also more casters like Blue Mage and Red Mage are something I would like to add.

Whatever the players want, I want too.

Although this is the same Yoshida that swore he wouldn't release the game until it is ready and then proceeded to delay most of the content out until 2.1, so who knows at this point...

No way should you be "stuck" at 32, I didn't get "stuck" until level about 46. Then it took fate grinding for that last 4 levels to hit 50. Sounds like your skipping a bunch of quests or haven't don't enough of unlock some.

[Espi]

Stuck at 32!? LMAO! ...maybe it's a good thing you are quitting. Rerolling as a new class won't get you past 32. You will probably get "stuck" at level 1 because you already did those quests on the first class you got "stuck" on.
