People are saying it’s an individual issue but I will say that kids who grew up on iPads and iPhones definitely are less tech literate when it comes to using PCs. Utilizing file explorer or even a command line (gasp) is completely out of their comfort zone.

If something doesn’t work like it should, they generally call tech support to figure it out rather than Google and solve it themselves.

This is generally. I taught fifth grade math and science for five years and the lack of a true computer resource class has really hurt kids. I had to spend 4-5 weeks each year teaching 10-11 year olds how to use computers. What copy and paste is, how to sign on to programs, how to attach a document, how to navigate a web portal, how to type on a keyboard, how to navigate Google slides/powerpoint or Google docs/word, etc because before fifth grade they had iPads instead of Chromebooks. Out of the 40-50 students I’d have each year, maybe 2 would know how to do even three of these things.

Most didn’t even know how to sign on because they were able to use faceid or use a QR code to sign in before fifth grade.

That’s what it seems like. I’m definitely going to be doing it, if only to keep the gameplay a little fresh once I stop leveling multiple times within an hour and the quests take a bit longer.

Hunting log looks perfect. It’s nice that it tells you the general area where the mobs are located.

Great to know. I definitely want to have a tank/healer/dps so I can swap when I want. Being an arcanist is great for the healer/dps aspect and I’m going to go paladin for the tank.

Mainly for the queues so that I can pop it instantly rather than waiting 15-30 min for a dps queue.

This is good to know, thank you!

Very true. Let’s hope I’m still playing by then! It’s my first MMO and I’m really enjoying it now though nothing has happened in the story yet.

I really like that the game seems designed against what most newer games do as in, respecting your time. It seems like you don’t have to play the game 24/7 to keep up and I’ve read that the devs encourage people to unsubscribe when they’re done with the content since the game isn’t designed to be the only game someone plays? That’s awesome.

Yea, it seems like the MSQ gives so much experience. I know that I’ll be doing it for like 100 hours or more so I might as well have a couple of different jobs to play to spice things up here and there.

I’m happy to hear that there really aren’t any downsides to doing it.

This is all fantastic info. When I looked it up earlier, it seems like flying mounts uBlock after MSQ?

And I purposefully picked arcanist because of that quirk!

I’m thinking of doing the duties as healer/tank for faster queues. DPS queues are so long I just did them with the NPCs but I prefer doing them with other players.

You can pet him!?! That’s awesome
