Okay - I'm totally new to the game (started 6/20/2004) - and am absolutely and completely HOOKED!!! ... but... I have a TON of questions, and I seem to find that experienced players frown on "n00bs" ... so what do I do???
Don't get me wrong - I have met some awesome folks - but the dis-respect from n00b-haters is discouraging some days (apparently they been playin so long they forgot what it was like to be new?!)!! ... so I stumble on to Alla and here I am.
I started this thread in order to have a place for all my stupid questions - putting aside fears of n00b-bashing - and hoping for some guidance...
>>> now so stunned that I got this far, I can't think straight and forgot my running list of questions <<< Here's some starters:
1. Are you supposed to do the rank quests also, or can you only do the ones for your homeland? (I'm assuming homeland only cuz I can't seem to even get them offered).
2. How long do you have to fish (or how much do you have to catch) before you are anything more than an Amatuer?
3. Should I be keeping beastmen seals? I have over 50 now, and no idea what they're for or when (if ever) I'll need them.
4. Is it OK (advised or not) to work on another job so that someday when you reach 18 and manage the SJ quest, you'll already be kinda ready to make use of the capability?
5. And while we're asking about sub-jobs - I'm a little "frantic" when playing so skipped a MAGE type job because I just know it would be more than I could handle (at least right now) - but I think I'm becoming a good WAR and am thinking to sub MNK to be even better... Is that a good combo? - will I ever be invited to a PT?
Okay - that's all that I can remember just now... thanks for kind forebearance!!
Good hunting fellow adventurers - and to those who've helped me to this point - THANK YOU! See ya'll around the wonderful world of Cerberus...
