I am cool doing DRG quests out of order in relation to MSQ. And likewise, I think that you should be able to pick up the new jobs, 'out of order'...

Right now, the way things are, the two different treatments of the Job Quests vs. MSQ/Sidequests are, unfortunately, something I find to be what creates the dissonance in my thoughts.

However... I think that ultimatey from your comments, my conversation derails the subject slightly, so should likely be dropped in favor of following the OP's original thoughts. My appologies for the trouble.

As far as the quest is handled... I suppose I would've loved to have seen them handle it differently, but I get that they decided to focus on the current content. It would've been awesome to see a new character maybe introduced, a new method, etc etc... something different, maybe even pulling the NPC that trained alongside Eistinien into the fray even sooner than we recieved in 3.0 - that'd of been quite interesting!
