If you are planning to level bard or corsair, have friends that will PL or otherwise carry you, or are both aggressively competent and proactive about building your own parties, initially skipping your subjob might make sense. If none of these apply (and probably even if you think they do, since you are only 17 after a couple of weeks), you should probably level a subjob as soon as you hit 18 (WHM, specifically, if you plan to main RDM).


I agree. I really only went my route because I was having to start over.

It was pretty tough to find WHM invites from like 19-30 without a SJ honestly. This be good advice.

I don't really want to PL, I can perfectly understand why it's being frowned upon and it takes away the challenge. If I were looking for shortcuts might as well play retail.
And yes, I eventually decided go go back and start as WHM as soon as I hit 18 because I understood that getting enough pt invites to level past 18-19 without a subjob is nearly impossible. I'll do WHM for now because seems that it's the most sought-after job in the dunes, hopefully it'll allow me to also level up other jobs.

If your main job is going to be something like PLD SAM NIN etc (something that uses WAR as subjob) then it's much more efficient to just level Warrior to 30 without a subjob and then do your quest for PLD SAM NIN etc and then level that job to 60 and go back to WAR and finish to 37.

No, don't ever do this. Always unlock your subjob right away, always keep your subjobs leveled. Level Monk or Thief to 18, swap to Warrior, then go to 30 to unlock advanced jobs.


Funny how my /anon WAR w/o sub, with capped skills, does more than your THF/MNK, MNK/WAR or WAR/MNK.

That is false. Your /anon WAR subbing MNK would do more with capped skills then without subbing MNK.

I've literally never seen Dancer post useful advice, and it's hecking astounding.

A WAR without a subjob is going to deal less damage than a WAR with one assuming capped skills (which you should have anyway) and comparable gear, why would you ever think otherwise?

Start one of your subjobs at lv1. MNK is an easy choice.
