Hello all,
Sorry if this has been asked before .. and sorry if this is in the wrong spot .. and sorry if this is a dumb question haha

Anyway its been a while since I played FFXIV, I currently came back and made a Black Mage
But I have decided I want to be a Monk instead.

Now since I initially made a black mage.. should I erase the character and start a new with monk (I know its not monk, but the class that leads to monk)
Or
Can I just talk to the monk trainer? I remember FFXIV it was easy to change classes just by switching your wep.
But since black mage is a magic user and monk is melee.. didn't know if my stats would be greatly effected.. or are the initially stats you get from the beginning don't matter as much?

I'm only like lv 5 to btw so .. wouldn't be to hard to just erase and restart
I was just curious on how it works.

Ty
