So according to what I've read online and recent Mr. Happy video, there are two potions. One to skip the story up to 3.0, and another to start at level 50.

OK... But most players hit 50 and are in HW before their green leafs disappear. Yet, this is simply too slow?

I'm not against jump potions, but I also don't want a PLD jumper in Brayflox HM with me without any clue how to generate enmity. I am, and always will be of the belief that you need to earn your first 50.

Wanna skip the story, fine. Just get ready to run a lot of dungeons.
