Jump Potion...again

[Nestama]

Indeed i won't buy it but i'll end up in dungeon healing tank that won't know how to keep aggro and tanking for dps not knowing there cycle because they'll get all there spells at 60 and won't have the time to practice before being thrown in the 1st dungeon (maybe 61 - 62 if we follow heavensward logic ?) so yes, it will impact me at some point

Won't have time to practice? Of course they'll have plenty of time to practice! Nothing is forcing them into the first dungeon they see.
If you're so worried it will impact you, then I guess you'll just have to go out of your way and become a Mentor and teach the player how to tank/heal/DPS decently.

Helping and teaching as never been an issue to me, I don't know how to explain this in english :/ I don't want to come across people who bought they level and willingly do nonsens while they could just have done like we did, lvl their charac the "old way" and take the time to get used to it.
How "serious" does it seems to come acrosse someone saying "Oh I just bought my charac, never learnt to play with it cause don't want to waste my time, can you waste yours and tell me everything to know about it ?"

Thank you LineageRazor for the explanation

Edit: so many players complain about meeting those person in PoTD and no one seem to be worried about meeting them in lvling dungeons and raid :/

I would support jump potions for alts and only to a level that their main account is at. This would include bypassing story, dungeon unlocks and so on. I would not support them from the point of view of leveling a new role. Those in my view should follow the normal progression that one has to do with a main toon if they elect to level bard or ninja or astro etc – that is starting that role at level 1 or level 30 or whatever the normal starting level would be even come Stormblood.

Because the old way and PoTD are flawed in many ways.
Leveling and MSQ are bloated and if anything, teaches basic dodging and a few interaction mechanics in 2.0. The Novice Tutorial teaches the same thing with a few general role additions.

The actual Class and Job quests are under utilized as a teaching method. Some of the fights require a mechanic, however it is not reinforced as they level or added upon. This is where I would like to see SE improve the teachings of classes/jobs. Especially if they are going to revamp them in the future and remove classes.

PotD is flawed, simply because it is on a timer. A new player inside PoTD has to have a lot of self reliance to learn on the fly with trial and error. If they struggle, they will just grind 1-20 solo for the XP and learn very little.

Why the most common ideology between both sides and the JP forums are to have SE actually have a system that teaches actual job rotations and how that job performs in group content. This should be implemented regardless if potions come or not.

If you quit because of a potion then I don't know what to say to you.

I do!

Can I have your stuff when you leave? Also if you have a house if you could post which one that'd be great too. :V

He neither loves the game, it's mechanic nor is he intested in the further journey/story (enough to stay subbed, if they add a skip potion).

Everyone who doesn't want to see the story of 4.0 just because there might be people not wanted to be there, should just quit, or not?

SE: Hmmmmm....we lose one sub but have the potential to sell a game, the expansions, a potion, and get a new sub?

I don't think that threat means as much as you think.

[whiteblade89]

I say yes to jump potions to see if people will actually quit. Pro tip: they probably won't.
