    Where's the jobs?

    Bahaha, I'm not talking about the battle class jobs. I'm talking about Part-time-jobs! Real jobs that you have to do "work". In FFXI there was a few quests that you could do once a day, like turn all the lights on in Jeuno. That was kinda fun, and only one person could do it a night. Though, I would like to see real jobs come about, like you have to sweep all the porches of the stores, or cut wool off sheep. This would give the players something to do one a day(in game). Along side this you would get a little bit of exp, items, titles! This is something I would be seeing in 2.0, they have tons of stuff on their plate now. Please give your harsh comments, thoughts, ideas!

    I bet all of you who clicked it were like ~/facepalm not another JOB thread~ :P trolololo.

    Disclaimer: Not an original idea, stole it from ffxi/mabinogi.

    if you want to do tedious repetitive work for big big rewards then pick up crafting

    The work wasn't tedious, you don't have to complete it either, like in Mabinogi, if you did half the job you got part of the reward. Unlike crafting it will only take like 10 mins to do a job. You can just do it while sitting around town. You will probably say, why not craft sitting around town. Well, some of us don't like to craft, this would just be another activity to do, that we don't have to do. You know, something while we are bored.

    I admit, I did enjoy some of the repeatable quests they had in FFXI. I do remember the Jueno light quest quite well. Would always look out for it whenever I was running through the city.

    In FFXIV, the Grand Company supply and provision quests, not to mention the Guild tasks are some repeatable quests you can do that have a tangible reward. Not so much jobs in the sense that you are talking about, but something to do regardless.

    That is LITERALLY what guildleves are. The Adventurer's Guild is a day labor office.

    No, guildleves are killing things/crafting things. If you read my post I said stuff like sweeping, gathering wool, stuff like that.

    here is a link for mabinogis job wiki. http://wiki.mabinogiworld.com/index....Part-time_Jobs

    I would like repeatable quests to do in town, and get xp on whatever class I am currently on. Sounds like a good way to kill time in town while I wait for my sister to log in or whatever.

    I'd love more local quests that are actually local unlike guildleves hehe.

    This sounds like a cute idea, and any extra exp I could get instead of crafting for exp sounds fine to me.

    It would be nice to have a few quick lightly lore related tasks for a few extra gil.

    You know, something that isn't:
    Go-to-the-same-camp-you've-been-going-to-for-the-last-few-levels-and-kill-some-of-the-same-boring-enemies-till-you-get-to-move-on-to-the-next-boring-camp-where-the-only-break-from-the-tedium-is-to-form-a-party-for-a-dungeon-run-that-holds-no-great-surprises.
