Hi,

I'm excited to start playing and am curious as to what you think would find the most groups (in terms of leveling up quickly, finishing missions and being able to help other parties the most overtime)?

WHM seems like the best option initially - as long as you think there isn't an over saturation of white mages.

PLD or NIN is my previous forte so I may end up going down that road eventually anyways.

Let me know! Thank you. Can't wait to PT with you guys!

WAR levels fastest through the early levels and sets you up for NIN or PLD. of the starter jobs, only RDM might be faster and not until 40/41.

Yeah, seems like half the server is whm at low-mid levels lately. You'll want whm or rdm at 25 for sneak/invis to get missions done so you don't have to buy oil/powder; I'd recommend rdm for that, and then maybe take it to 40 later for those UO parties.

But yeah as mentioned WAR is the fastest way to 30, and it's useful/mandatory as a sub for most every tank and physical dps job. Hard to go wrong with it.

As long as you don't go thf or blm as your starter you'll be fine though.
