Leveling the new jobs in Heavensward

[Sakurabodom]

I just want to say first, im probaly the most excited person here for Heavensward.
And I appreciate the efforts from the entire team bringing us our first expansion!

That being said I just read an interview with YoshiP and it was stated that the new jobs defintally wont start out at level 1, and that has me sad.

I know its probaly to late in the production to change this, but I want to ask people here, I dont like that we dont get to level these jobs from level 1 up, What do yall think?

[Zumi]

I like them starting at a higher level because I don't care much for the leveling grind and would rather get into endgame.

[Yitan]

I don't see why it's a bad thing. New areas will probably be too high level to be level 1 anyway.

[Shinun]

It doesn't bother me too much. Leveling I only enjoy on new servers where your forced to level from the start. I don't forsee making a new character unless we get new servers anytime. So all that I would miss out on being able to level at 1 I can just sit in my inn with my new jobs and rewatch the cs but on them.

If you already have the key Jobs' classes at 50 then you'll likely be starting the new Jobs at 50. The new Jobs have no base classes of their own so the only thing that makes sense, to me at least, is that they will be borrowing the classes of the key Jobs.

Probably you gonna need to have a 2.0 job at 50 before get a new heroic job

Starting at level 50 is unlikely.

I agree with the OP here. Not starting from level 1 is kinda strange. The only info we have on this is Yoshi P saying "jobs don't start at level 1." Which is not a lot to go on.

I'm fine with it as long as it doesn't go overboard. I think anything in the 15-30 range should be fine as a starting point, anything else is too much imo. 15 seems to be the sweet spot imo since that's when all the leveling options are on the table. That also offers enough skills to teach how the job is played while avoiding overwhelming with tons of skills.

I think it was in the RPGamer interview where Yoshi-P also revealed that players need at least one class at level 30 to unlock the new jobs, and they're planning to call these new jobs "additional jobs", as in extra stuff you unlock in addition to the old jobs you unlock by reaching level 30 on your first class. I wouldn't be surprised if the new jobs start at 30. It would put them on equal footing as the current jobs.

Actually it is a pretty huge hint because as of now all jobs start at 30, so it hints that 30 may be the base level for new jobs.
