Ok, so I'm kind of going over this in my head, and on paper, but I wanted some people who are experienced with the game as it is now, as opposed to a few years ago to offer their opinions.
I'm starting fresh (for now) as a Galka. I'd like to avoid magey jobs if possible, because, lolGalkaMP.
What jobs require from 1-90 minimal subjobs? As a RDM on Murphie I had a bajillionty necessary and semi-necessary subjobs. Which I was totally cool with. But I'd like to avoid leveling six or seven jobs for this character, at least on my first time to endgame if at all possible.
My thoughts:
BRD! Well, here's a job that once upon a time could come to parties in event gear and with a shitty sub and still get an invite. I wouldn't play that way, but at the end of the day, /WHM and /NIN seemed to cover the bases. Is this still true? (To be fair, a level 90 BRD wouldn't be all that useful to me, because their ability to do other stuff solo would be limited, but whatever.)
NIN: Ok, so... /WAR? /DNC? What subs are needed for this pricey job?
I DRG, but that would require, at the minimum, /WAR, /NIN, /BLU? Or some kind of Magey job for solo work. I dunno how it works anymore. But a Galka DRG would be fun.
I mean, I'm open. I know my race choice isn't ideal. Hell, I've searched the race numbers on Valefor and it's hilarious. 500+ humes. 400+ Taru. 300+ Mithra and Humes, 75 Galka. Seventy. Five. So I know I'm kind of a niche race. That's cool. I just want to take at least one job to 90 with the minimum amount of prep, and then I'll be free to deal with more involved jobs.
Suggestions?

So via reading elsewhere, I've discovered that BRD is while not completely useless in Abyssea, it's not the shining star it used to be, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. So I'm open to other suggestions. Seriously. ANY SUGGESTION.
