OK how does this sound???

[Doofus]

OK i have already planned what I want to do in FFXI. I have planned out how to get to there as well, and just wanted peoples opinions, and to see if I could do it better

I plan to be (in the end) a BRD/WHM

I wasnt quite sure which race would be best - Taru Taru or Elvaan. I think Taru personally, but convince me otherwise

To start with I plan on being a RDM. Since RDM is quite a versatile job, I should be able to get to lv 18 pretty quickly.

I will then complete the sub job quest, and switch to WHM/RDM. I know this will probably take awhile, but I should eventually get my WHM to lv 30

I will then do the Bard quest, and switch to BAR/WHM, and level that up

So how does that sound all you FFXI guru's. Any tips/chages you could gives me (please give a reason for changes though). Thanks for your time

This way is probably quicker and better:

1. Level WHM to 18 and do subjob quest
2. Level BLM to 15 with WHM support
3. Level WHM to 30 with BLM support
4. Do BRD quest
5. Level BRD to 60 with WHM as support

WHM is in such demand that you would get to 30 a lot quicker than RDM.

Im not getting my RDM to level 30. I leveled my RDM first so that I would get the extra mp so I am a more effective WHM as soon as i become one, and can solo a little using some black magic
