Bought this game a few days ago, questions

[Nhadaly]

More mandatory leveling up another class for important skills or other things?

Ugh, not this again, ill not bother with the class then, might as well continue with my current class.

I really wanted to try out the class, oh well.

I just have this huge feeling of dissapointment right now.

Oh well, thanks for the help guys, i appreciate it a lot, i wouldnt have gone this far or known this much without you all.

Yea this game requires a lot of cross classing just to play your job, but even more to maximize each one. And for the most part, casters and physical classes don't cross much. PLD does with CNJ and your class does ARC. And unfortunately you can't even get the 3new classes until you officially enter HW content

I havent actually tried the gladiator so ill give it a whirl and see where it goes, hopefully with gladiator being a tank i can enter guildhests instantly(those group leves) so that i can both get solid expirience(with tanking) as well as get good exp for my class.

But yeah, 5 more levels for the new classes?

The levels from 46 to 50 were a pain cause of the lack of quests around my level but you guys recommending levequests fixed it, i hope the next 5 are easier.

The basics are:

Marauder to level 2 for Foresight
Gladiator to level 22 for Provoke

For tanking?

I actually tried marauder before and i sorta hate it and i cant bear leveling it to level 26, but level 2 is easy peasy.

have you joined a FC? they can give you XP buffs and you may find other people to help you run through dungeons and give you quicker que times

Not yet, i havent bothered to find one to be honest, i get invitations to ones but my previous expiriences with those kind of FCs is that they arent good.

Even if they aren't good the XP bonus is nice boost.

You can always leave the FC after you find a better one.

[jack891]

yea, never accept those random FC invites. might be something you would want to consider especially if you find someone within an FC who is leveling around the same level

[Malicewolf]

actually, have you started paying your subscription yet? If not, the recruit a friend can still be done I believe. You will get a circlet that gives extra xp buff for anything below lvl 25 (nice for getting started on new classes). it hurts a little in dungeons as you don't have your head on with decent gear, but if you feel comfortable with the class, it usually doesn't matter in the dungeons up to lvl 25 that much. And gladiator is probably the most basic of the tanks. It's very straightforward and easy to figure out. It's also the base for all tanks as it provides most of the good cross class skills for any of the tanks (biggest one's being provoke and convalescence). Awareness if nice for higher level Warrior's as well.

As for FC's. It's usually better to find a nice one that you think will work for you rather than just accepting randoms. Large FC's usually have more buffs running and more people available to throw gear and materials at you, but it's also usually less personable. You usually just find yourself a small sub group within the FC that you hang out with. Smaller, it's a lot easier to get to know everyone, but they usually (not always) tend to have less available to you due to less people being able to provide things.

At what level does the Gladiator learn Convalescence?

Also, where can i find peoples recruitment codes? Why cant i send any PMs?

[Malicewolf]

It's a level 10 you learn it. It increases your hp recovery from heals by 20% for 20 sec.

Unfortunately, there is no PM system here. Many have made mention it would be a nice addition... (still nothin)
If you want to use one, you can feel free to use mine. There's also a thread somewhere on the forums.
