I think locking access to new Jobs is a HUGE mistake..

I'm actually really disappointed at the idea of the jobs not starting at level 1. I rather enjoy the leveling process and I was looking forward to more classes to bring up through the ranks.

I really really hope that was a mistranslation.

Since when has any "Job" started at level 1? Never ever ever has any job started at level 1 in FFXIV. sheesh

These are not "Classes" they are new jobs that use existing classes in new combinations.

No....These are jobs that just don't have classes. They may have 5 or so cross class skills like the other jobs, but funtionally, they are a class+job combined into one without that messy switchover at level 30. They could if the Devs wanted them to, start at 1, but that is not the case.

Yeah... there is no mention of anything you just said from official sources. But it's an interesting theory you got there! lol

You don't actually believe that the new Jobs are going to be some combination of old classes, do you? And yes, the Devs have said that these Jobs function without a base class.

Didn't they say the new jobs will not start at level 1?

I was extremely upset when I heard this. I was really hoping to start a brand new character from level 1 as an aura Astrologian and play the story all over again. Levelling is one of the things I enjoyed most about this game, and having levelled up almost every class to 50 now (only have 3 jobs at 30-40 left but couldnt get into their style of play), I was starting to miss the fun of leveling up a class.

Sure, it might be considered casual in the scheme of the game, but it was memorable to me. I leveled and deleted several different characters just to re-live the fun of the story when I got bored of end-game. Now all I do is fish to relax.
Please dont take away my dream of leveling an entirely new class from scratch SE. The experience of learning to play a new class is half the fun.

There is nothing stated about the starting level of the jobs.

Yoshi said in an interview that the new Jobs will not start at lvl 1. He didn't say from what lvl they will start but he gave a hint that here we are talking about new Jobs and not new Classes. Which mean the new jobs will start at lvl 30 most probably.
