Can Red Mage start at level 30?

You could also use roulettes and beastman dailies. I pretty much ignored FATEs once I saw how horribly inefficient they were made in the HW areas.

Let's also think about how this affect the lower level people and those starting out. You're basically reducing the pool of players available in DF do a degree. Unless the intent is to get people to buy leveling potions.

I leveled all my jobs to 60 with fates in HW except my first which i used the main story quest line. It was the fastest way to get exp. They buffed fate exp very shortly after the release of HW. Stuff like beastman tribes are very limited in the number you can do in 1 day same with roulettes.
