What decided your main job class?

[Saseal]

I.....have had a few mains over time o.o;

I started out as MNK, way back when the game was released out of beta as a full fledged game.
However, when I joined up with two other friends, all three of us were dps - and couldn't go into dungeons together. So two of us ended up having to switch to tank and healer.
I opted for CNJ/WHM and it just... sorta stuck that way.

Then, I ended up with a rather weird injury to my ring finger in my left hand (avulsion fracture - I tore the ligament right off my own joint...) which made it difficult to move around (being on PC) - which meant re-training my hand to play AWSD (ring=A, middle=W/S, pointer=D; thumb=Spacebar/jump, ring=tab) to be (middle=A, pointer=W/S, thumb=D, thumb=Spacebar, middle=tab.... and weird combos of fingers to strafe) and a lot of mouse clicking monsters and skills on my hotbar. It was just too difficult to react fast enough to healing and moving -
so I switched to BRD.... and mained that for several months until the splint was taken off and my finger learned to bend again.
Went back to maining WHM...

Now I main AST o_Oa (funny, considering I really disliked it, for a while)
