So why do two Samurai skills say they're job quest skills but the rest don't? Are there only two skills rewarded from job quests now?

You start at 50, then get job quests at 60 and 70, the quests grant you a skill on quest completion, other skills are unlocked automatically upon reaching their level.

So no job story quest lines? :(

I have no idea, maybe we'll have long and involved quest lines, but this has nothing to do with skill acquisition.

Having more than 1 live version is a bad idea.

Pretty sure it's the same version, the client just defers patch data you don't need, why'd you think it's more than one?

Is there anybody playing in the Asia Pacific timezones? I pretty much just started, and if there isn't anyone around UTC+10 then I figure I might as well go to one of the underpopulated servers for the xp bonuses and stuff.

Tonberry supposedly has a large English-speaking population and some minor goon presence.

Are the Japanese servers having the Raubahn issue as well? I'm curious for no real reason.

Yes they seem to whine about queues and the scenario as well.

Apparently buying stormblood doesn't come with 30 days of gametime like every other mmo I've bought...

What every other mmo? The only other sub mmo is WoW and they don't include 30 days with an expansion either.

Why is this so much worse than Heavenward's launch? Things should have gotten better not worse.

Heads should roll for this. Also we should get some extra days.

Yeah, but this is like bragging about rent being cheaper in bumfuck nowhere. Sure, you live cheap, but the rest of us get to be in a real place.

What matters though is how many people the FC can attract. Sure Excalibur is big and cool, but it could lose everyone outside goon FCs and be as good if not better.

Is it worth leveling Grand Company rep prior to cap? I may have to divert and do different things due to MSQ fatigue this weekend. Also, where do the Hildebrand quests start? I heard those were very good.

Second lieutenant allows buying houses and the first Hildibrand quest is 'The Rise and Fall of Gentlemen ' in Uldah

I suspect it's completion-triggered like the Alisaie stuff in 3.5 just because it makes little sense otherwise, if it's the line I'm thinking of.

I'm starting over coming back, just wanted to double check though. Am I still going to be able to have my fat chocobo mount? Wasn't sure if that was a 1 time character thing or account wide.

It's kind of the biggest reason I want to play this game again, lol

Also long shot: Does this game have cross-realm play for dungeons and stuff like WoW?

You'll have your chocobo mailed to you and it has a cross-realm party finder for instanced content within a data center (there are two data centers in NA for example)

So my question is what role actions are best for healers? There are a couple obvious ones but some of them seem pretty close.

I'm using Protect, Esuna, Lucid Dreaming, Swiftcast and Largesse because the rest looks like garbage.
e: rescue is fun but realistically usually I'm the one who needs to be rescued
