Advice on continuing 1.0 character or restartingFollow

The biggest factor for me came down to losing all the crystals on my 1.0 character. It would take many hours to farm an equivalent amount of crystals, and I've got some crafting to do! Other than that, I wouldn't care about re-rolling. I only played 1.0 for a month, so I don't have that much level progress. My 2 highest classes are cnj and btn in their early 20s, and I have like 80k gil, so there isn't a lot of time lost from re-rolling from that perspective. I just want to hit crafting hard at launch.

Okay, only read through about half of this thread so far, so I apologize if it was mentioned. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't I see it mentioned that with the character wipe (i.e. between phase 3 and 4, happening right now) any 1.0/Legacy character's classes that WEREN'T at level 50 will be reset as well? For example, if someone has 50 GLD, 50 MRD, 25 BLS and 15 ARC, the only thing carried over from the wipe would be the 50 GLD and the 50 MRD?


If you think about how you came to this conclusion in the first place, you will realize that the conclusion makes no sense whatsoever.

Legacy characters are being imported in whatever state they were in when the original ended.

Phase 3 was used to test the import process, so now that it is ended, Phase 4 will require the characters to be imported again.

Wiping characters in the beta phase has absolutely zero effect on the original data that will need to be re-imported from the original source.


Thanks for clarifying that, Ravashack. The thing is I didn't come to that conclusion. I seen it mentioned somewhere. Was most likely a misinformed forum post or something, but nice to have it cleared up regardless of source.

This. Mainly what I want from my 1.0 character is the shards he has, because unless something changes with Phase 4/Release, those look much harder to come by in ARR vs 1.0.
