Okay, well now that we have all seen a good look at the jobs. I wan't to know what everyone's current opinion is on them now. I remember at first almost everyone was leaning in the direction of Blu or Pup.

<3 Corsair. I plan on working on that after I'm done with the WHM maxout hysteria.

I plan on trying them all out eventually. Depending on how well I like the jobs I'll take them to at least 60 for complete AF.

BLU is a good solid job and makes an excellent sub-job for RDM, so that's reason enough for for me. Its the next job I plan on levelling to 37 after I finish up with DRK.

COR- I started liking the COR storyline with the quest to unlock it and fell in love with it after having one 2hr in party while I was levelling WHM. I need to level RNG some before seriously taking COR up though.

PUP- I'll be honest, I fell in love with the look of the AF for PUP when it was first released- so that was my only reason for wanting to level it :lol: Still is really, I just haven't been as impressed with it that much- not like COR and BLU have impressed me anyway.

BLU mainly because after 65 levels of standing in the back row watching other people beat on monsters I wanna do that.

LOL. And you want to hit 75 WHM. Here's a little clue of what to expect as far as the 70-75 grind goes.

For this week, except for Tuesday where I willing gave myself in to my HNMLS to get my ass kicked inside out by Vrtra and lost 3k EXP. (Ate 2xRR2 and HP)

Every day I've been on from 2-11 P.M. PDT Either LFP or in an Actual Party. And I've managed... I'd say 35k+ every day. So. Unless you're ready for perhaps the most intense grind of your life. It might take you two weeks at the very least. I myself have nothing more to do. So I'm having fun trying to cap out on WHM.

And then I need to get Primes and get SMN to 37.

Well it took me ~ 7 days to go from 70-75 with only about 4-5 hours of exp time each day so it can be done in less without wearing yourself out.

This was before ToAU so I exp'd in B. Bay, Lufaise Meadows and Sky. I was able to get around 1/2 a level a day (15-18k) but I'll admit the ease (and fun) I had going from 70-75 is probably due to having a dedicated static party and not having to deal with pick-up parties.

Fun thing I do with Wild Card is;

1) Get 100% TP
2) Use Sharpshot and Barrage (order may be reversed)
3) Detonator
4) Wild Card
5) If gain TP from Wild Card use Evisceration
if not go back to 2 and end
6) Gravitation :lol:

Once I get Savage Blade and a decent sword (Joyeuse) I can make Light :lol:

You left out an option, "I don't care." :P

P.S. I voted PUP for a laugh :P

Played BLU for a while, got it to 26, got fed up with my craptastic luck in getting spells so I put it away. Not even gonna bother unlocking the other two cuz I know I won't play them. Once SMN hits 75 I'm done with anything but merits. With the number of people not looking for pt at the lower levels these days, I just can't stand sitting around for a week at a time without getting an invite. I've already had to put my 3 hour limit back on myself for seeking at the high levels, then I just have to find something else to do.

For me, a job is only fun if you can DO things with it, and if you can't even level it, you can't do anything with it.

Yeah, BLM is ready and I just need to raise up a bit more cash for my Maat Fight...I mean beating. :shock:

So yeah, I'm not in a major rush to get to 75. By the end of this month is cool with me. I just hope no one wants me to sub SMN at 70+ or expects me to wear anything but WHM AF.

I want to get Blessed gear, a Noble's Tunic, and the Turban you get for trading those coins but I no have the money or IS for that.

I have BLU in the 20s already. I plan to take it to 37, but right now DRK to 37 for Dynamis is a priority. Which means THF to 18 and maybe RNG to 15....

My melee kitty may pick up COR, but the Gil for that job just isn't there at this time.
