tank. So Pld/Gld, and Ranger second whenever that comes out. I'll be leveling all my crafts though, its too damn fun.

Which is also why i have like 5 different kinds of chisels and hammers and saws cluttering up my inventory...

I have about 40 weapons, including a bunch of spears, wands, staves, bows and such. This is not counting the various hammers and whatnot. Armory crate holds 25 tops, the rest goes into bag 4 of my inventory. :p

I need to get myself a retainer and shove every single low level gear in there.

In any MMO, I spend way too much time crafting, so I'm excited for the time sink haha.

Crafting in 1.0 was pretty nice, i liked that i could make a few hq low level rings for my mage jobs without much problem, i even sold a couple of crafted stuffs while levelin and made a bit of cash, too bad they took a 0 out of it and now all i have is 70k lol, good thing i saved a ton of ores from leveling mining

I tend to prefer the up close and personal melee DPS classes, so I'll probably be a monk. I'll probably try and work on just about every class though, as I tend to like playing different roles from time to time.

I'm in, on ultros, though I haven't been able to stay interested in any MMO since WoW so I might only be playing for a month or two.

I'll be a WHM as my main. Secondary either BLM or GLD. I enjoyed GLD more than I thought I would in the last phase. BLM is a lot of fun, but man DPS queues SUCK. On my CNJ I was getting 30-50 sec queues, on the GLD I was getting instant to 10 sec queues. I asked the DPS in most groups I had how long their wait was and it ranged from 10-20 mins. Not sure I can go back to long queues like that haha.

I play on Leviathan also.

I'm on midgardsormr. My old server from FF11...

Started up the launcher and it updated, asked for my password... I was like "omg servers up early!?"

Then...

"Please wait until the start of the early access period or official launch to access the game"

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.

Yeah I leveled up a ACN first and the 30+ minute queues I had were insane. After I got that to 20, I switched to CNJ and instead of me doing a few FATEs first, I was in a dungeon almost immediately. I'll probably rush to SCH first before doing some DPS classes hoping it'll thin out a bit. It probably won't. :(

I'll be playing on Behemoth.

I'll be playing pugilist, then whatever other class I have to level to unlock monk, then monk.

Well, I'm sure I'll play quite a few different classes when it's all said and done. But, monk is the plan for now.

Currently my character is on Marlboro. Can't decide if I want to stay on that server, or move to another one though. Guess I should decide before tomorrow :p

What's everyone's race going to be? I got to level...10 or 11 as a Mi'qote but I'm really considering re-rolling as a lalafell...I just think they look awesome and the one I created looks great.

I'm going to be a basic human (Hyur) like I am in most games. I was reading up on some of the classes, and ugh... I gotta try 'em all. :$

I've tried out midlander and highlander. Current character is Mi'qote though. Probably stick with that, although I did like the highlander.

Yeah their website/account portal is abysmal. Leaves a terrible impression and makes it feel amateurish/lazy.

not so much amateurish, just incredibly poorly designed and filled with red tape.

I managed to get through tamtara before the servers went down, nabbed myself a nice new shield for my gladiator... :D

but servers down... D:
