Can I become Lancer and leatherworker at the same time in one char?

DeathmachinePT

Hi,

 

I want to try the crafting system on FFXIV but it said I would have to leave my lancer guild to join the leatherwork will I have no ability to engage in combat?

Or will this similar to SWTOR that you can be one craft profession and 1 fighting profession.

 

Thank you

You can be all classes - battle, trade, gather - all in one character.  There's no pentalty.  Just talk the guild masters/receptionists for each guild, and you're set.  The class system in FFXIV is one of the few things about it that's different (and cool) compared to other MMORPGs.  You literally don't need alts - there's a lot of advantages to rolling everything into one character.

 

You'll overload your inventory and if you do tons of crafting you'll suffer for shards, but there's no in-game restriction or pentalty for doing it all.

Might add that you need to do the level 15 class quest to get you access to more classes first (might be level 10 class quest). Before that you are locked into the class you have chosen at the start.

It's also a good idea to do the Story quest up to 15 or 20 to get access to your Inn room with storage and to access Levequests

Part from this three are NO RESTRCITIONS. You can be all classes in one character incl. all crafting and gathering.

Once you switch classes, you can change back to the old ones by just reequipping their weapon.

 

If you want, you can be level 50 in everything with gear for every class and switch between them at will.
