I also had a non-elemental magic ability called Spirit Dart which does not use MP. I noticed there are a lot more spells available at early levels than in FFXI, for example I had all of the first tier of elemental magic right from the start. I made it to level 4 Conjurer by completing guildleves and killing a few random monsters along the way. I found the guildleve system fun, and I can only imagine how much fun the more complex leves will be at higher levels. They are designed to help the player ease into the game and get the hang of things. The leves available to me at my level were quite basic, in the form of go out and kill X amount of monsters, but early quests in any game are never complex or difficult.

After finding my way out of the starting location I decided to explore the town and try get used to the controls. After going through the opening cutscene I was thrown into Limsa Lominsa for the first time. I was disappointed that there was not many hairstyles to choose from but I was still able to create a character I was happy with. I started the beta by creating a Hyur called Xenor Vernico on the Jecht server, you can see him in the screenshot of the left. Unfortunately I did not get to spend much time on the beta due to hardware issues, which remain unsolved. Some are from the guildleve system and there’s even a map thrown in. We recently got our hands on a beta key for the closed beta, so I was finally able to play it!
