Simply question about "Beta phase 1"

I'm pretty sure you can just buy a weapon equip it and gain exp.

I don't think so, unless they change it for Beta.

They'd better all be in the game. If I can't fish the very second I log in... I don't even know what I'll do. Kill myself maybe.

Remeber DEVs have stated you start with a battle class and then I think is level 10 you can go and change jobs. So first kill stuff until level 10 then go fishing.

Yeah like Molly said above, I don't see anything in Phase 1 notes about having all classes open

- Phase 1 characters will be deleted at the start of phase 2.
- The data center will be located in Japan.
- Between 5 and 10 Worlds will be available.
- All races and genders will be playable.
* Certain customization options will be unavailable until phase 3.
- The level cap will be set to 35.
- Eorzea time will be implemented (morning, afternoon, evening, night, etc.)
- All Legacy status holders qualify as testers in phase 1.

- The following will be implemented for testing:
Main scenario (partial) / Sidequests / Class quests / Full Active Time Events
Hunting Log / New behest / Dungeons (up to level 35)
Opening event (excluding CG movie) / Cutscenes / Player Search
Markets / Item Search (text strings, HQ, materia, etc.) / Other

- In addition to the above, the following is also scheduled:
Fall damage testing / Alpha feedback revisions (part I)
Alpha UI feedback revisions

In the phase 2 section they even state that more class quests will be available.

I noticed that too - its why I was hoping for a rep spoiler response. That said, they could have temp vendors for weapons to use those other jobs, and in phase 2+, they have the cities open and you can get the class/job gems for them then, but in phase 1, your limited to bard, dragoon and whm, ontop of having mrd/glad/arcanist(?)/thm/pgl base jobs too!

In the phase 2 section they even state that more class quests will be available.

I wonder if that's because the level cap will be raised to 35? I don't see any mention of Uldah nor Limsa (leveling paths) until Phase 3, but now that I'm looking at it, there is no mention of having access to all classes at all, in any of the Phases notes.

Hopefully the classes will be available from the start then, I'm assuming we'll need tanks for the available dungeons unless they...


Edit: Just realized lvl cap will be 35 for Phase 1

Yeah I dunno, it's a valid question Renala hehe

When I read it, I got that it'd be limited to Gridania again, but we would be able to adventure a little bit further into the Shroud.

In ARR you only start with 1 class you have to do the class quests they are testing that was listed in the pdf to unlock other classes. I mean they could just put temp npcs that let take other class quests sinces that what they want tested but that wouldn't make much sense now would it cause they wouldn't have the real cutscenes and stuff that are assoiacted with those classes in the actual towns they are in. Might be limited on classes till phase 3 who knows.

[Alhanelem]

Tha'ts not really unlocking. basically all it means is "play one class for a bit, then you can play the others."

I don't know about now but you could get to level 10 in a couple hours solo in 1.0 and that's being generous.
