Yea I had a great time with several linkshells back in FFXI just grinding xp. I'm excited to continue the story, i'm at the part where I'm supposed to head to Uldah I think. Those links are awesome, it looks like I need to go to Uldah first before I can do the next quest "Fade to white" that is a prerequisite for Lancer class quest-line. Again, thank you so much for the info. This is more or less all I need to keep me busy until Nov. 1! I'm looking forward to finding some chunks of time to sit down and work through a couple of main quests and get up past 30 in the next week.
