It kind of sucks being a new player

I just got to 60 and knew I had a ton of catching up to do. Wanna grind out law? Oh well since you're new you need to unlock these FIFTEEN other dungeons to gain HL roulette. Oh you thought you just had to unlock the ability to enter them? No you have to run all fifteen before roulette. Earn that ****.

Now say you get your law and you wanna upgrade it by doing hunts. Oh you thought you just go to the forgotten knight and start hunts? Nope. Gotta go grind your grand company rank and do their whole hunt quest chain. And since you're new you probably didn't save any of those pink dungeon items did you. Tough break, you gotta earn that ****. Dont be so lazy. Anywho Im off to get luck drops in alex that I "earned".

Ok I'm confused. Wha?

Basically what I'm getting is that they did nothing besides MSQ and lvl to 60. Now its bitting them in the ass since they now have to go back do GC quests to rank up for hunts, unlock all the side quest dungeons/ run them all to unlock roulettes ect.

The problem is that there is no incentive to do those things until you are 60 and HAVE to. You don't get XP in any of the level 50 dungeons, so you are expecting people to go hunt around to unlock outdated dungeons(since you have to find side-quest npcs to unlock almost all of them), run them for no XP and no gear that will be of any use to you, and pause on their way to actually leveling and strengthen their character for....what? There is simply no good reason to do any of that old content outside of that there are restrictions at 60 that force you to go do it for no reward.

You don't HAVE to. Nothing in the daily roulette is required to progress at endgame (at this point in time at least). The only thing that you get is a measly amount of Law tomestones that you can easily get from the Expert roulette or the duties associated with it.

You can't just do all MSQ to get to 60. I blame NThan.

i was tempted to see how much exp i would recieve if i fate grinded to level 50 while keeping all side quests open, then did the MSQ.

then i realized i'm a lazy prat that would never actually do it.

meanwhile i have a perfectly good pld sitting at level 50 just before CM and haven't used her in months.

It sucks to be new in any mmo...

Nobody expects you do stuff that people did in years in a couple of days, take it easy and enjoy the game... you'll catch up.

You aren't speaking for the entire fanbase unfortunately. Yes yes, some of act like you should do *everything* they did for years, in a couple of days. This game is really harsh on people that didn't stick around, or even started when 1.0 came out.

I don't understand. If you think having to do dungeons to unlock a dungeon roulette is "harsh" instead of "fun", why play a MMO? Honest question.
