Warning: This is a partial rant, partial hope for someone to slap me sane.

I am currently at a loss of what to do. That's not to say I'm not enjoying the game, but I find myself in a position where I have so much on my mind I am really unsure of what to do to clear some of the options.

Background: I stopped playing around 2.2 and started up again around the start of November. I usually play white mage because it's one of the few jobs in the game that I feel somewhat OK playing (most of the jobs make me feel "meh" I don't know I have yet to find one I really really enjoy) and I have recently leveled Ninja to 50 returning my all lvl 50 status.


I am not fully geared, this I know. I am quite far behind... so far behind that I am wondering if it's worth taking tiny steps forward NOW or taking slightly larger ones in 2.5 since it's right around the corner now. For example, I haven't bought any gloves for my whm because they don't have any piety!! > Maybe the 2.5 world of darkness gloves will be i120/125 etc and have some. That would be nice and make me not waste the poetics.

Then there's 3.0 and prep for that. Will one of the 3 classes introduced finally be one that really clicks with me? Maybe Astrologian will. Maybe Dark Knight. I kind of doubt Machinist will, but I will level it and maybe even play it if I enjoy it.

I know I am still on my Atma weapon... I stopped. It's too much work to get to the current relic level and I got tired of it on the book stage >.>; Plus 400k gil is a lot of money for me. It's certainly not something I can do or want to do for a job I only feel kinda "meh" about anyway.

I probably should get some gear and go out and defeat Shiva Extreme finally but... newer shinier gear is just... so... close... ><!!

Advice... is appreciated. T__________T
