    Seek & Search function: Seeking on multiple classes possible?

    Like the title says, Can we be allowed to seek multiple jobs at the same time.

    Lets say Billy has a level 15 Con, 28 Thm, 35 Lnc, and a 25 Pug.

    Billy is currently soloing on his Lnc, but is willing to party on any of his jobs.

    Right now we can only search based on what a player is currently playing, or what they set as their "preferred" classes to play.

    What if Billy just wanted to EXP, and didn't have a "preferred" class?

    Please please please! allow us to seek on multiple classes at once please please please!

    1: EXP is locked to your class so I don't know why Billy would just want to go party grinding.
    2: I don't understand why you would want a DoH/DoL in your party
    3: Yes please, allow us to mark multiple classes or turn "None" into "Any"

    For #1: Why would Billy just randomly party? Most people stick to one or two classes.
    #2: DoH/DoL don't get anything out of being in a party, so why are DoH/DoL classes available to pick as a preferred class when putting yourself up for a party?
    #3: I want us to be able to check multiple classes and for the "None" as a preferred class to function as "Any"

    I know it might be hard for you to think a little broader. But lets give it a try.

    I log to the game. I head out and start to farm something on a high level job. But Ultimately I feel like I want to level up one of my lower level classes.

    Currently, I personally have Con 40, Pug 30, Thm 28, and Mar 29, Arc Lnc and Gla are 50.

    I really want to level Thm up So I set my preferred class to "Thm" So now when people search they see me seeking PT currently as a 50 Lnc but wanting to play 28 Thm. But they don't see my Pug Con or Mar unless they click on my name.

    Thats how it currently works.

    What if I would be fine doing some EXP on my Pug, Mar or THm but not wanting to exp Con Lnc Gla or Arc. There is no way to let other people know "Hey I wouldn't mind playing any of these 3 classes"

    If you could simpley put a check mark next to each class you want to play as it would allow other players to search and possibley find you.

    Perhaps your reading comprehension is not the best, then.

    Yes to seeking as several classes, also please let me seek for a party when I am in one.

    I do believe you can seek as two classes right now. The one you are and one that you can mark as preferred. Either way, I really like the search function as it is but further improvements would obviously be welcomed with open arms.
