After coming back and being totally lost, I decided to just delete my character and start over, my highest was only level 26 so not a big loss.

I'm on the Balmung server if there are any Linkshells for new and/or returning players.

I've been having fun, up to 18 archer, 8 Conj and chopped some trees down.

Few questions

1. The storyline seems to have changed the levels in which you acquire them, is there a new site that shows at what level you get them and where they are located? I don't remember getting the companion quest until 20 last time, but picked it up at 18 this time.

2. I'm mostly just hanging out around Ul'Dah, doing quests I come upon, doing the leve quests from the inn. From what I see you get 4 of these every 12 hours, are these local leves? If so, what are regional leve's and where do I get those / do they count towards this same limit?

3. Are the first class quests still at 20?

4. Are there still behests at camps? If so, which camps do they start at and at what time interval? I have not seen any yet, still doing camp Drybone @ +9 right now.

5. Am I missing something that I should be doing? I see Grand Companies mentioned a lot, but what level can I join one? Are there other quests in other cities I should be doing? I went to Limsa and ran around there doing odds and ends for about an hour.

6. Crafting used to suck, well I thought it did, you nearly had to level every single profession to craft anything. I want to make some arrows and maybe bows for my archer (bard in the future), I took up woodworking and have a saw, but no recipes. Is there a site with all recipes, or can I buy recipe books from somewhere? What other professions do I need to just make arrows and bows?

I think that is about it for now. I'm liking the changes, especially mob level showing, not missing 50% of my attacks, getting rid of physical level, maps showing where my objectives actually are!

Thank you!
