Hello

[Enkidoh]

Welcome to Eorzea Jessy! Like the previous posters, I play on another server (Ridill specifically) so I can't actually offer you in-game help like offering you a linkshell or Free Company invite, but any questions you have about the game, please, feel free to ask! The game is designed in such a way specifically for new players like yourself hence the best advice is not to be in a hurry to get to 'end game' - you'll miss out on so much in the meantime.

If levelling gets too grating, take a wander around the zones surrounding your city and see how far you can explore without attracting dangerous wildlife!

The detail Square Enix has put into each zone is staggering, and not only that, as you explore the map, you gain exp when you discover a 'new area, and completing each map (which fills in as you explore) gives you bonus exp and an achievement! So it's definitely worth exploring each map at least once.

But really, the most important thing to remember, is to have fun! That's the whole point of playing this game after all, for enjoyment - sure you can treat it like a job, but where's the fun in that?
