Originally when I first started FFXI back in 2005 I started as WHM (because I always loved WHM and healing classes in games in general)... only to struggle so much with FFXI's unforgiving party-centric battle system I vowed the next time I played a FF MMO I would not start as a healer... which was just as well because FFXIV 1.0 did not have a dedicated healing class at the very beginning (WHM, SCH and AST did not exist and CNJ as originally designed was more an elemental spellcaster with some healing spells chucked on for good measure). So I decided to think outside the box and chose GLA as my starting class in FFXIV 1.0.

I quickly surprised myself at just how much I enjoyed it. Thus I stuck with it even into ARR, and hence GLA/PLD is now my main. I've tried other classes and Jobs, including CNJ/WHM, but GLA/PLD will forever be Enki's path in Eorzea.
