Which job should i be o.o

[Stooky]

Well, in any mmo i play my biggest problem is picking a class to take to the max level. As of playing ffxi i found out i like to do everytihng >> DD, tank, and the occasional magic casting. i have tried mnk,war,pld, and nin so far and i cant decide what >< This is what causes me to quit many mmo's and if i cant pick one im worried it will happen again on ffxi. What class can i do all this on, or will i have to level to classes to get all that i like in! im going nuts trying to do this and if i cant figure out what to do i i will continue to smash my head against my desk unless i fingure out what im going to. ahhhhh!
Thanks ><,
Stooky

I was in the same exact situation that you are in. I would say try Puppetmaster. You may laugh because of all the bad things you hear about PUP, but in all seriousness it's a very good job. If you like casting spells, try going with the Mage frame. You can spam spells on the enemies without using up any MP. You can solo just as well as you can party, although people think PUPs are useless in parties, when they don't even give them a chance and they really are great. Try all the frames, they are all very useful and strong. You can also sub a mage job if you want to cast spells. I heard there was a pup/whm who had over 400mp and was really good at healing.

Or you can try BLU or Red Mage, but I went with PUP and I am having a great time. Try it out! ^_~

Re: Which job should i be o.o

I'll say just try to level up everything. You can max out all jobs using 1 single character in FFXI unlike other mmo which you are stuck with the job you select. The guy who did this recieved an incredible gift (as much as I hate Maat I sooo want his Maat - the proof real Maat Masher!).

Personally, I think the job that has a mix of everything is Blu. Depending on what you sub, it can be a tank, healer, support, DD or soloist. I have yet to try this one but it seems to have a lot of potential in every single aspect of the game.

Rdm is also a mix but favor the magic than melee. Mostly, they are like support but they can tank abit as well as doing damage with magic. Their strong point is debuffing and support. Still, because they do a bit of everything and have very strong enhancing spells they sort of have an image of invicibilty in solo.

Drk favors the melee than magic but still have a tab into some good spells. They don't use spells a lot but sometimes they will cast magic if they feel it worth casting. They are pure melee most of the time though, their magic is use for punishment rather than damage.

Pld... is paladin >_> holy knight!!! Well, a tank, not a good caster except in healing. Do 'ok' damage but they excel in fortifing their defence up to a point you will see the evil monster that have been beating everyone else to the pulb hit the Pld for 5~10 dmg.

Drg is a pure melee but due to the wyvern and sub job you can actually mix a bit between melee and magic (but magic is near worthless though). I think SE wanted drg to be something like blu but it didn't turn out too well. These guys got the short end of the stick after the TP update. They still do ok but not as good as before. They are very good in solo and kill a lot faster than rdm yet can survive almost any battle as long as their wyvern is alive.

Another mix of DD/Tank/magic I'd say it's Ninja, their magic is based on ninjutsu instead, they serve several fuction, an excellent tank, a very good damage dealer as well as the ability to deal elemental damage. Not much to say except that you need a lot of skill and money to use ninja properly. With enough equiments and skill they can rank top as tank as well as DD at the same time. They can also do impressive damage with ninjutsu as well as some very strong debuffing.

Since you can't decide and insist on others deciding for you, I decide you go DRG. Hehe...

Hell, you're right. He should play as a tank first so he can get used to dying, THEN take on DRK and lastly DRG so he'll last as a DRG.

try alll the jobs see what suits ya then take it to the max

Hmmm well see that was his problem. He can't decide, he tries some and then he can't decide and he gets nothing done. That's exactly how I was. I would say try going with Red Mage, from what you are describing to me. You like to cast spells and be a kind of a good fighter. Red Mage suits that description. Or you could try DRK. DRKs do high damage and they can cast some strong spells. If you are like me, and it really sounds so, then don't try out all the jobs ><. I tried this, I used so much time and money on getting them and leveling them up, and then I didn't get anywhere because I felt like switching immediatly. Try them if you want, but idk it wouldn't work for me.

Try going Red Mage. It's a nice stable job, and if you are really skilled, people will respect you and you will get very far.
