    A new multi Tales of Adventure

    Currently the Tales of Adventure boosting options allow you to instantly boost a single job to level 70, which definitely has it's pros and cons, it's great if you want to get straight into high level content, especially if you're already max level on your first job and want to try a second, but it can also be very overwhelming as it throws you in at the deep end with every skill up to 70 unlocked at once and dumped relatively unorganised onto your hotbar depriving you of the opportunity to learn how to play the job and use all of its abilities naturally as you would have it you levelled normally.

    At the same time if you're used to playing a job at a higher level, starting to level a new class from scratch without boosting can feel extremely tedious for a decent chunk of time until you've unlocked enough abilities to at least make your rotation feel reasonably engaging.

    What I would therefore like to suggest is a broader middle-ground, a new "Tales of Adventure: One Neophiles Journey", which instead of boosting ONE job all the way to level 70, boosts EVERY not already unlocked/leveled-up ARR base class to level 30 and completes all but the level 30 Job quest for each of them, then allows you do each job quest to unlock them and organically learn the Job from that point onwards.

    TL;DR: I would really like to try every JOB eventually, but I really don't want to have to level 1-30 on every base class first to do it or pay to boost every job to 70 and then have to read/watch guides to figure out wtf i'm doing! :/

    It takes roughly 2 hours to go from 1-30 on one base class if you have at least one EXP-boosting item (the ring from the Hall of the Novice or the earrings from the preorder) and a stack of boiled eggs. Ask someone who has a level 80 class to take you to kholusia and attack whatever you attack with a ranged attack. They have to attack first, though. This will work better on ranged or magical - melee will take a little longer in Azys Lla but it's safer due to the mobs range of sight. So long as you're not in a party with said person you'll get every bit of EXP. (Side note, this also works to get Blue Mage from 1-70 in 2 hours because of how intentionally broken BLU exp is - one mob will take you to level 30, for example).

    From 1-20 you do that, and then you do a leveling roulette and 2 more dungeons.

    I very recently (read: 3-4 weeks ago) did this to my last class to get to 30. It's fun if you bring a friend and talk and joke around, or use the time to have netflix in the background or get something semi-productive done. Treat getting from 1-30 as learning the basics of your job.

    That's not the ideal solution but something you can do is unlock the job and try it in Palace of the dead (start at floor 50) or Heaven on High (for level 60 gameplay)

    I would definitely like to read a "halfway" job boost option – probably to level 50 where your daily roulette options widen up.
