I wish Square would give us the option to start the new classes at level 1

[Andy_T93]

I appreciate that most people would prefer to start at 80 (likely starting level) and certainly don't want that taken away but every now and then I like going back to level 1 and taking a class all the way to 90 (soon to be 100) sadly I just got my last DPS class to 90 (black mage) and it kinda sucks that unless I make a brand new character I can't really do that levelling journey, It was a nice little project which I did very casually over a 6 week period

So yeah that's it really

You could just queue up low level dungeons and get the experience that way.

Ok and if those classes reach 90 and you leveled them from 1, you will be out of classes again and will have to make a new character anyway, so what does this change exactly ?

A similar post was also made at https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...the-2-new-Jobs

You will have 19 battle jobs (-1 because SCH/SMN) to level at least 10 levels each, which is a total of 180 levels you need to gain, plus a total of 40 for the two new jobs, which brings the total amount of leveling to do at 220 levels.

In contrast, using purely ARR jobs in ARR (-1 for SCH/SMN), we only had to level 9 (for a total of 450 levels). So we have to do half as much leveling as we originally did in ARR to get all the jobs up to max, but it's still a lot and still a project to work on.

As the earlier poster said, you can still do low level dungeons or get them in leveling roulette and some people just make new character regularly to do that. Not even joking, I have met many people who make new characters for this reason.

Finding something to enjoy doing.

Yeah, don't think they'll be changing that, but everyone already agrees on the same thing; queue for low level dungeons to learn the job. It's what I did in particular with Sage and Reaper when it came out.

That is the most ridiculous logic ever, that's like saying why play a game because once you complete it you won't have anything to do??

[Andy_T93]

It's not really about learning the job it's more about just having a casual goal to work at over a longer period of time especially when there is a content drought between patches

Ok but what when you reach max level on those classes ? You will literally have to make a new character anyway ? What is the difference compared to now ?

That's an idea I could support, citizen. I'd level a Dark Knight from 1.
