So. What's First?

[Pwnagraphic]

Pretty sure I saw this thread, but I don't really think I did..

What's your plans for Day 1 of launch (assuming things go smooth xD)

Since I joined mid year last year, I am going to finish all my AF quests since I can do those Solo, then gear up with primal fights which I haven't ever done. I'd really like to do some endgame stuff as soon as possible, but I need to be geared up.

[Neasa]

Well, I'm hoping by then I'll have managed to get things sorted... You know, action bars, configuration, layout, retainers/storage... x.x So... Uh... I assume probably still progressing through the story, since it sounds like we won't be able to progress too far in phase 4. And then... Unless my FC needs me for anything, I might join the droves all trying to level up ACN. I wanna be a SCH! I R smrt!

[Pwnagraphic]

Oh god I totally forgot about the huge cluster F the inventory stuff was during Beta 3.

[Fantasia]

Gonna do most of this stuff in phase 4 since the cap will obviously prevent progressing in the story too far:

1) Sort out inventory
2) Do up to the level 20 class quests for ARC/CNJ/THM (screw the other classes, I wouldn't want to play them anymore anyway!)
3) Start off ACN, and try to hit 20 before the end of the test
4) Once I hit 20 on ACN I may start my DoL/H class quests to get them out of the way

This is my plan starting in phase 4. What I will be doing launch day will be whatever things on this list I don't get done during phase 4 and early access.

1) Chocobo from Grodania to check ferry price.
1a) if the ferry is cheap: take ferry to Limsa and unlock Arcanist.
2) Sort inventory. This step will take most of a day. /cry
3) get to the point in the story that unlocks airship. Will use ACN for this if I unlocked it. If not I will use PGL or GLA so exp won't be wasted.
3a) Unlock ACN if I haven't already.
4) Level BTN to 20 if still in phase 4. 23 if after.
5) Get to the point of the story where I rejoin my GC while leveling ACN. I'll probably use CNJ in the dungeons and party instance because so many people will be wanting to use ACN.

shit dude you are hard core lol. If you think we didn't notice you want to be an ACN cause everything else is already 50 you're fooling yourself lol. Anyway, back to OP.

I joined pretty late. missed legacy status by only a week or so. Had a couple good LS's, but didn't have much time to forge any lasting friendships, so when a RL friend joined, I joined him on Gilgamesh for Beta and made a bunch of friends, but my 1.0 toon is still stuck on Balmung for a little while. So I'll be starting a new toon while I wait for paid transfers to start. occasionally playing my main, working on getting his bard to 50 before transfer.

unlock Arcanist.

You don't need to unlock arcanist, you can choose it as your starting class. That's my plan personally, to start out as arcanist so I can get the most exp with it by doing all the starter quests as arcanist.

[JillyBean]

1) Arrive home in Gridania as CNJ
2) Do CNJ quests thru level 15
3) Do Main Storyline until I can re-join Adder
4) Breathe?
5) Not sure!

I think their point is choosing the city you want to start in and the questline story to experience rather than let arcanist dictate that it must be Limsa's story. They want to level arcanist, but they'd rather Gridania be their hometown.

also, once you choose your starting guild, I think you're locked in until you finish the level 15 quest for that guild. After that though you're free to switch around. that said, legacy/1.0 players will piss through these.
