Job Quests...please make them mandatory

[Zojha]

At level 30 that same trainer points you in the direction of Job trainer so they are quite hard to miss unless you are deliberately ignoring them (maybe doesn't want to level LNC?)

That's not quite correct.

Sometimes, the NPC that gives you the job quest is not the guild leader, but rather the receptionist. That's the case for monk, paladin, scholar and black mage. The person might simply not have noticed the quest popped up and thought he was done, since the guild leader didn't have anything left for him and that's where he expected further advancement, especially since you usually get the message:"The next Class quest becomes available from NPC at level YY". None such thing happens at 30 if I recall correctly.

Besides, even if he "did" notice the quest, he might be oblivious to the importance of jobs and thought he could just do that whenever. It's not like the game tells you every five levels:"You just missed out on another skill, sucker!"

I guess it's just me that see them gold ! above people's head and gets the need to inverstigae them.

i could swear that the ACN guild leader gave me the SMN quest which once i was done gave me SCH after i could be wrong.

well after lvl 50 the quests are every 2 levels but i'm just spilting hairs.

SE should really display the skills as blacked out with a tooltip of quest required in the trats and ablities

The icon is red if you haven't done the levels in the cross-class, though, and you don't see what class you need until you click on it. I think there should be a quest that is gold that explains the requirements a bit better. This game is a little vague with explaining the issue with quests you haven't hit the requirements for yet.

Some people like to customize classes without job stones, although the applications are very limited (i.e. I've seen B4B on marauder in T10 after echo with BiS gear & the healers' permission)

However, I agree that it would be nice to make the job system more obvious to new players or mention in a tutorial of some sort. I've had to vote abandon on garuda more than once when we had level 45 members who still had no job stones. Lots of people queue brayflox NM with no idea there's a job system, and are happy if it's mentioned to them.
