Question

Can someone list the jobs including standard and advanced from most common to rarest (not including sub jobs)

This really is going to be different from server to server. Lvl also plays a huge part, b/c a lot of the advanced melee jobs have a weak point during some time. DRK for example has a hard time between 49-59. Since they are weak through theses lvls, it makes it hard to find a pt and people get frustrated and quit the job. But on my server, Lakshmi, the most popular job is PLD, followed by DRK. Least popular jobs i bet are RNG, NIN, and SMN. These jobs require large amounts of input as you either have to have tons of gil (NIN and RNG), or you have to at least have a lvl 60+ job to get the summons for SMN. Everything else is kinda in the middle i would guess.

On Caitsith, at least at the times I have checked, the single most popular job, hands down, is Warrior. However, the vast majority of these Warriors are lower than level 30, and Warriors above level 30 are actually fairly scarce in my observation (because most Warriors change to an advanced job when they reach 30).

The second most common is White Mage. Yes, I know this seems incongruous, but I've checked this at two different times recently, and both times WHM was number 2 by a fairly large margin. WHM's seem to make up about 10% of the players on Caitsith at the times I've checked. However, this number is still signficiantly less than 1 in 6, and almost every party wants a white mage; as such, they still seem to be scarce even though it is a popular job.

I don't remember the breakdown exactly after that, because I wasn't really interested in all the jobs, only certain ones that I was curious about. I remember that DRK was the most popular advanced job, and that PLD was up there as well.
