Most of the captain's utility is designed around being in a party and supporting/buffing others. Given the current state of the game, grouping just isn't something that happens all that much, so you'll be leveling and killing things slower than if you take a pure damage dealer like hunter or champion. Guardian has a similar problem in that it's mostly meant to work as a party tank. Last time I played, I thought the captain did have a fun playstyle, but it was notably slower to progress than my other classes.

If you feel you're enjoying the game, your best option is probably to subscribe for a month or two. The subscription itself will unlock a bunch of things like trait slots and inventory bags that stay unlocked even if you lapse, and you'll accumulate a few points to buy extras later. I'm not sure exactly where the sub/f2p breakpoints are right now, but it has almost always been a good idea to sub for your initial leveling period, then re-evaluate what you want to do once you get a bit further into the game.

So I reinstalled this weekend for the first time in a couple of years and have been poking around to see what I can remember. I don't think it's worth me dropping $40 on Helm's Deep, so my 85 Hunter is likely to stay on the shelf. My 46 Captain was parked in Forochel, so I started putzing around with him thinking maybe I'll hit up Moria and see all the fancy new changes they made since my last time through. Nice to see the Forochel tunnel lighting bug is still around years later.

I transferred my dudes. I may even play them one day.

Hmmm... as a fellow GM of a goon guild in a failed MMO, I'll have to keep this thread bookmarked to see how things play out. I'm on the edge of my seat here.

I am totally willing to join in any raid content. Unfortunately, Turbine decided some years ago to give up on raid content completely, so...

So, if they're giving away the quest packs for free, what's in the expansions that are going on sale? Instances, I guess, but anything else?

How the gently caress do I tell what content is on my account so I'm not buying things twice? I know in decades past, there used to be an account management page on the website that showed all your unlocks, but damned if I can find it now.

What's the state of relic weapons these days? I've got some time to kill between FF14 patches, but I remember the last time I thought about jumping back into this, they had just done a massive overhaul of weapons. I logged in, took one look at the giant mess of a system, and said "gently caress off". IIRC, you had to go back to Elrond's house to level anything up, which was a kick in the teeth for a game where fast travel is as much of a pain as it is here.
