Job Quest woes from a noob

1-Join a friendly LS.
2-Ask them for help.
Done. It's hard huh?

Just like Pepper, if you ever need help and I'm on just let me know ^^ I've been helping random groups out on their AF, makes me sad when I see people who have been shouting for hours and get no help. I try to get to them in order that I see them and between helping friends/ls mates. I'm absolutely drained but keep going xD

Same here, Provided I'm home I usually help if I see people struggling.

I had the same trouble doing the LV30 BLM quest...as a 43 THM. I had to fight three gnats at once, and of course they're resistant against thunder so that leaves me with little options. I spammed my fire spells but their health pools are SO much higher than that of a regular level 35 monster. I finally teamed up with two of my LS mates later on and finished it. :/

I'm not saying we don't need a challenge, but something is a little imbalanced if I can't solo a quest 13 levels over the point I can take it, or if a full group of people at level can't beat it.

People will help you if you ask them. Its something I like in this game, many people are very social and ready to help you. Otherwise find a linkshell first and do it with your mates. Its an online game after all and its not meant to get all the stuff on day one.

I agree, we had no problem getting help. They even agreed to go in as lvl 30s with us to preserve the challenge, and after we wiped 5 times they were like, " We've got some 50s we could switch to real quick if you want." And at that point we were so aggravated at the insane difficulty (and when I play smashbrothers with my lil bro I hold the controller upside down), that we were like "HELZ YEAH!!! SCREW THESE MOBS!!!"

But I don't think the problem was finding helpful people, at least not on Fabul. It was that even with helpful people, if you were in moderate range of the quest level, it was still likely to wipe the whole party.

I did a few of the job quests after the release and it was pretty easy to find other people in the same situation or strangers willing to help My fear is that in 2 months when I am ready to do the remaining jobs everyone will have moved on to new content and those "left behind" will really struggle to catch up, at least until the huge inflow of new players with 2.0

i agree asking help while you cant return anything to them is real pain in the ass.
even with ls , its still

Maybe it helps to use some potions now, too
Like poisoning potions, silencing potions and sleeping potions
