Multiple job jump potions for 4.1?

[Stormfur]

I could swear I remember reading this on one of the live letters or somewhere in the forum. Right now it's limited to one per service account per character. I have an alt that I would like to have a job from my main (so I have already leveled the job once and know how to do it) but can't because of this restriction. Will we have the ability to boost more jobs in 4.1?

They said they'd look at the data and consider it. They have not said anything beyond that aside from that the amount of potions used was lower than expected.

I hope they never Implement this. I'm sure a million and one players have enough reasons to not put the effort in anything and will love to be a slaker, through some money at the screen and call it a day, but if you have a character at level 70 and you already used a jump potion time to sit down and level like anyone else. I though jump potion was "for people to catch up" but I'm sure some smart cookie is going to come up with a very ingenious detailed explanation of why they want everything handed to them. But hey that's just me I guess I'm one of those who believes on working for what you want.

Personally hope they keep it locked at one to be blunt. Far too often have I seen people who have used these things (Dungeons, trials, etc) and they just have literally no clue what they're doing with the class. The whole point of leveling up a class is to learn it as you go with it... The potions skip that whole bit which instead leads us to healers who can't heal, tanks who don't know what provoke is, and dps who just smash random buttons. So yeah, no support for more than one potion per account.

Nah. May as well open it up. Especially if they're not as prevalent as anticipated. Make it easier on players to change if they discover they don't actually like the job they bought a potion for.

But, nothing anywhere ever stated 4.1, I don't think. That was just the forum rumor/assumption.

Well, to be fair, I would like to make my alt a paladin. Ive leveled paladin to 70 on my main but find myself concentrating more on dark knight. I wouldn't jump if I didn't know the class already, but I can see your point!

[ToniRomo]

I hope they unlock these soon. I'd like to make an alt and start with SB content.

My baby alt is lv30. Hoping to get the lv jump and ARR jump once they lift it. The "this could mean bad players" is a moot argument imo. DF was and always will be filled with more bad players then good players :P

I kind of don't want it implemented for the same reasons. I experienced this in WoW and...well, it wasn't a good time for anyone involved.

But I can see the benefit of having it as well, you know?

First and foremost, this game teaches you very little on how to play your selected job at a decent level. There are no rotation explanations or skill synergy recommendations. In fact, some of the job story quests tell you to perform actions that intentionally break your combo. Second, people typically buying the level skip have already purchased the story version and want a quick leveling alternative. They're just going to spam PotD, FATEs or PvP anyway. Not exactly what I'd call optimal learning. And lastly, people who genuinely care to be decent players will put in the effort of their own violation to improve. Those who couldn't be bothered won't no matter what obstacle you impede them with. A friend just today had to Vote Abandon Castra Abania because the WHM and MNK refused to listen and do mechanics. They didn't use jump potions, they just didn't care.
