Of course not!! you must gain it yourself!

If you get Gladiator to 50 you might have access to the PLD quest unless you also need Marauder leveled a bit to obtain the job quest. If you want Warrior you'll have to level Marauder to at least 30 to gain access to the job quest. What they did say about jobs though is that jobs are pretty much a concept where you define your class more and you gain abilities based on doing the job quest. As a gladiator if you are in PLD mode you will obtain experience for Gladiator since Gladiator and Paladin basically share the same level.

To put it bluntly the job=class. Job is just a means to give your character a more defined role in combat, where as classes give you the option to be more flexible with your abilities.

They said you'd keep everything, all class levels and items/currency/progress, with the possible exception of in-progress quests. If the 7th Umbral Era's world changes ends up changing the landscape or world enough that some quests cannot happen story-wise, they would be cancelled or reset. So don't worry about your character getting deleted or otherwise rolled back in any way. They know that many people are going to be holding out until 2.0 and not holding onto their data at all would be shooting themselves in the foot in the worst way.

I don't think we should have to wait any longer for this game to get any good. I have been here since alpha so that's a year and a half of waiting. It's getting better but now that we have to pay and pay through a payment system that's broken?

just wish people would sway away from "wait till 2.0 is out" and actually give people information. its like you go to the doctors and have this conversation.

doctor: well your terminally ill
you: whats wrong with me?
doctor: well you'll have to wait untill we find a cure for me to tell you

why not just say what the illness is?

translating that to FFXIV

poster 1: i want more content, blah blah blah, cry cry cry
poster 2: wait until 2.0 is out

it should be...

poster 1: i want more content, blah blah blah, cry cry cry
poster 2: well 1.20 has new content and features being brought it, theres a roadmap under "this" link, check it out and you will see that they have alot of work but my the time 2.0 is out it'll be a whole new game and we have more patches coming before then and new content being brought in before 2.0 as well.

get what i mean?

In your example the poster is the patient and the replier is the doctor, but why should the replier be the doctor? They're not paid to give you information, they're doing it voluntarily. You can't seriously expect someone who is not getting paid to give exact, detailed information, especially when its already been outlined by the real doctor, Yoshi-P.

I understand not everyone wants to keep up with every piece of info about the game, but is it so unreasonable to ask that they do a little research on a topic that has been outlined already and is very easy to find on the lodestone instead of posting about it? People don't want to give the same explanation fifty times, and they don't have to, so why would they? All it takes is a little effort to find the answers, but apparently that's too much to ask.

What you want is for the people who actually took the effort to find out what's going to happen to give even more effort to write up an explanation, so the people who don't want to read can be lazy.

Please don't promote laziness, or this game will fall fast.
