Recommend me a job to level

[Vendeen]

So...just finished THF 75...now I need another job to level and I really can't decide. Here's some background info:

75 NIN, RDM, WAR, BLM, SMN, THF

All decently geared @ 75, minus maybe Homam Legs for THF. (Haidate, Heca Cap/Hands/Feet, Sniper's +1 x2, Cuch Mantle, etc.)

I also have 8 GA Merits, and 4 Eva skill merits (don't ask me why). So this leaves an opening to merit possibly a combat skill for my job. [16/16 magic merits (enf + ele)]

Now, I have what I think to be a pretty decent spread of jobs @ 75, pretty useful for most situations, maybe minus a socially acceptable end-game tank. What immediately comes to mind would be probably either PLD, SAM, or DRK. my SAM and DRK are @ 37 and PLD is 0. Some things I have considered is possibly the ease of exping it to 75, with PLD getting faster invs, and SAM and DRK maybe not as much.

So, taking into account exping it, cross-over gear and end-game usefulness I really can't decide mainly between the 3 jobs listed above. But, what may be some other jobs that would be smart to level, or would one of the 3 I mentioned be good? HALP!

P.S. - FFXI AH Account - Magikarp - Garuda - FFXIAH.com (for job levels etc and essentially the gear I have.)

BRD.

[Rasantath]

or COR
you seem to have everything but a support class (i dont really count rdm as a support class, its more hybrid)

[Arthars]

bard

it doesnt matter what merits or equipment you already have

[Yugl]

BRD

[Starr]

DRG

[Yugl]

DRG

We have enough bandwagons sir.

[Valgautr]

BRD

^This, do BRD and you'll be loved by everyone.

[zard1977]

SAM.

Hop on to the bandwagon!

[stewie]

Obligatory PUP.

[Kongolo]

brd or cor

[Argettio]

Obviously yes BRD would make every one love you, but you will also get stuck as a brd (unless your LS has a too many brds already)

SAM is a very good fit with the gear you have, you would just need to buy an osode and hagun and say hi WS spam.

DRK also works reasonably well, you have homam and heca, so grabbing a scythe of the AH (death or Tred) or if you up your merc rank a perdu sickle.

It depends on what you do in the game, DRK (or BRD, if you are considering this) is obviously the best if you do a lot of zerg fights.

or COR

this, Cor, it's extreme fun, powerful, and good job, from everyone I know who plays it.

[Kerberoz]

8 combat merits isn't really enough for COR. You could scrape by with 12 if you don't mind trashing evasion merits.

[Miraun]

PUP

[Starr]

We have enough bandwagons sir.

u r bandwagon

[Teron]

PLD is fun to play.

[Spider-Dan]

BRD

[Hosom]

BLU, because too many people are suggesting BRD and COR

Here's some suggestions:...

BEASTMASTER: You can level this on your own time. It's fun, and the way it plays is different than every other job. Do this if you need a change of pace.

BARD: Levels fast, every party will be good because YOU are in it (as bard). If your merit party needs a bard and none are seeking, you can be the solution to the problem. Do this and you'll be looking for yet another job to level in no time.

DANCER: Fun to play, it's active game-play. You're always pushing buttons. Good support job too.

PALADIN: Fast invite rate, and there's so many ways to pimp it out, end game wise. Everyone is counting on you in end-game (no pressure).

RANGER: Levels very quickly in the piercing damage obsessed world. Enough job abilities to stay interesting. The master of back-line melee damage.

I'd not to Dark Knight or Samurai yet. You already have Warrior as it is for front-line melee jobs.
