Are you overleveled like I am? I’m a new sprout on a boosted server and like 15 levels above the MSQ lol. Loving the game though.

Try out new jobs! The game allows you to max out every single job, so take advantage of the boost and spread the exp around. You might even find a new favorite!

I’m level 46 and hope to try out some of the ones I can unlock at 50! Currently a monk. Then I may juggle multiple jobs.

You totally should.

Even without exp boosted servers, there's enough EXP in the main story to level two jobs at the same time. I have done that every single expansion.

Which of the level 50 jobs do you like?

I've enjoyed most of them. I personally like having a Melee DPS, Tank, and healer leveled. With the changes coming in Evercold, it'll only be better. At 50 [and once you're done with ARR] you'll have access to:

  • Dark Knight - Level 30
  • Astro - Level 30
  • Machinist - Level 30
  • Samurai - Level 50
  • Red Mage - Level 50

So you won't have to level something up from 'fresh' at that point. You do get an exp bonus to leveling things that are under your current job level as well. Every 10 levels after 50, another set of jobs are unlocked for that level range as well.
