Thanks a million! I'm getting used to this job system, and I think I've just about decided I like it.
It's a very different way of looking at things than I'm used to. It's hard not to look at my character's level as an indication of how I'm doing.
I played a little last night and managed to make it to the part where you must enter the forest where XDeath is from to find some sort of Elder or something. I only managed to walk around the town there and talk to the NPCs...haven't ventured out into the forest east of town yet.
So I think I'm doing ok so far. I'll work on getting my job levels up before I continue along the story line. I figure I'll be alright for now as long as each character has mastered at least one job. I'm hoping the amount of ability points I can harvest will keep increasing as I go...otherwise this is going to be a long game.
Well, thanks for the warm welcome you guys...and thanks for the advice. This site is great and the people here seem pretty knowledgable...and not to mention nice.
I'm glad to have the opportunity to join up.
