Waiting for rollback- should I start an alt?

I definitely recommend it. Alts are a great way to experience a race you've wanted to try without having to use a fantasia, as well as a change to explore new jobs you haven't done before. I see you joined the forums in 2017 so assume you were around before the changes to ARR and HW. Going through those again is worth making an alt all on their own. You'll be amazed at the details you've forgotten or completely missed thinking they weren't really important.

I definitely need to update my forum account haha, still from around those times. Hoping the start of the game isn't too much of a chore, since it's been ages since I did it

2.0 and onward to HW was a chore the last time I did it. but 2.0 itself wasn't too bad.

My friends and I have always enjoyed leveling alts through ARR and Heavensward. It's like reading a favorite book you haven't read in a while. And doing the low-level dungeons is a stress-free relaxing romp compared to endgame. Doing it on a preferred world, with Road to 80, and with the SDS Fenris mount from Mog Station, which always travels at the higher mount speed, makes it even better.

So far, I have two characters leveled to endgame, another to end of Shadowbringers, two in part-way through Stormblood, one to Litany of Peace in HW, and another five to various points in ARR. I've always got a character with rested XP I can level.
