Ok, I'm happy that WHM damage is going to be based on mind. I have always fucking hated any form of stance dancing.
Literally you will hit 50 just by doing the story mode. The thing you have to do anyways. You can't advance without doing the main story quest. Pick a tank for instant queues for the dungeons you have to do and pound it. If that's not that appealing, it takes about 8 hours in Palace of the dead to go from 15 to 50. Rumor is that the level 60 potion will be available to buy at launch from the mog-station. As a guy with almost all the battle classes at 60 now, it's not that hard.I like RDM mechanics, but dont want to fucking level another class to fucking 50+ to fucking play one. I've never played this game past 10.

@Krip - How so? I'm enjoying Ninja but doubt I will ever play it at a high level so I glossed over their changes. I know the current Mudra system is pretty retarded.
Two questions then:
Will I have to buy both expansions separately? Not a deal breaker, just a curiosity
War or Paladin?

On the tank meta question, looking at the changes that are being implemented. My best guess is that PLD will now be the meta MT in almost all scenarios, unless the new damage increase in grit keeps DRK in that role. War will still be designated to the OT role but by the looks of it may be surpassed by DRK in that role in stormblood.
-PLD is gaining a ton. Ability to block magic attacks being the biggest change.
-DRK is getting more damage, and quality of life changes.
-WAR is losing utility, and gaining nothing.

Leveling as warrior is easier because you get your agro stance earlier.
@Krip- thanks for the rundown.
Mostly speculation still at this point with no hard numbers to calculate, but NIN rotation doesn't seem easier as implied, just different. More mudra spam and less weaponskill. Less Rogue and more Ninja which stands to reason.
Idk, I am just recently returning and haven't played much since 3.0 so ultimately I would defer to Krips judgement but most of what I am reading regarding NIN changes has been positive.
