Thread: 1.0 Character recreation started as wrong class

I've been away for almost 2 years so I couldn't play and now finally, I have time to play, but when I tried to use my old 1.0 character. I was able to update my name and appearance like I was suppose to and I selected Archer as my main class. When I entered the game for some unknown reason I ended up as a pugilist in Ul'dah and not an archer in Gridania like I should have. All I want to know is if it's possible for you to reset my class/starting city or change it to Archer/Gridania like it was suppose to be.

Even reloading the saved data from prior to my login on Monday July 13th would be fine. I have not done anything in-game as soon as I was able to log out I did. I don't think I even moved from the initial point I started at after you gain control of your character. I really don't want to start over since I will lose my Gil and items some of which I don't believe exist anymore.

I've tried contacting the GM's by email which resulted in them telling me to contact support which told me to contact chat support who told me that they can't fix any in-game issues. I'm literally on my 5th attempt to get this resolved. So hopefully I've finally found the correct place to fix my issue. If it isn't could someone please tell me who I have to contact to get this fixed.

So this was a pretty big topic back at the beginning of 2.0. Basically, regardless of what you've chosen now it'll default to what you originally chose back in 1.0. If you had Pugalist back in 1.0 then you'll be Pugalist and in Ul'duh, even if you chose Gridania and Archer. I was pretty upset (and still am) that my character was originally from Ul'duh (even on my character certificate) but is now from Limsa cause it started me as a Murader. I don't believe they'll be changing it.

You can just level pug to level10 and then walk to gridania and would take less them then dealing with support.

Thanks for the info, I pretty much guessed that was going to be the case. This post was really just a last ditch effort.

This is not a "tech" issue, it's a "in-game bug"

And It likely happened to people on certain servers. I don't recall if it happened to me, but the starter quests are pretty much identical between the three, so it's of no important loss.

That is why it was a last ditch effort. I tried in-game support twice and was told they can't help and to contact regular support and they sent me to chat support and then this forums.
