why is uldah so over used?

i mean you still have to be level 50 for it, so i dont think it mattered that much tbh

First of all, getting to Ishgard required level 50, and you have to then dip back to 30 to to level them. So someone new to the game has to get to 50, do all of ARR post patch, and then swap back to level 30 and level again for 20 levels. It is especially easy today to also be super over leveled compared to the msq if you do roulettes or play with friends etc.

If these jobs were in accessible areas, you could just pick them up as soon as you hit level 30. The same way you can just pick up red mage at level 50 if you want regardless of msq progress. Say, play thm/smn up to 50 and then immediately swap to the job you want to play without having to dip back.

For players who were already caught up on the msq this is no big deal, they would have had access to Ishgard day 1 of HW. But for new players, or people who like leveling alts, HW jobs were a sticking point.

Also they got the largest table. Gridania got a pond and Limsa a small room with a nice view.

Actually we use the "pond" pretty frequently as a meeting place for large groups too. Certainly more often than trying to all squeeze into Merlwyb's office.

honestly im extremely against jobs starting above 30 idc how late it is, it kinda dumb starting things at such a high lvl 30 in hw made sense because every job starts at 30 anyways
