I'm new and want to know how best to start
Hello! I'm new (as in I haven't even downloaded the game yet) but I was wondering if anyone could give me some tips for starting. I really want to be a bard but from what I've read that's probably not the best choice if I don't have any friends who play this.

You can try out any style of play while starting out. I believe Duncan in the first town will reset all your skills so you can try other skills and not use up your AP.
In my opinion, the best play-style for starting out is melee. Smash, defend and counter will be your basic bread-and-butter that will keep you safe. At low levels, just having a shield will negate a lot of damage just from holding it. I believe you can get a "rental" weapon (and shield I believe?) which is a high-ish-tier weapon that will be bound to you (is untradable) so you can use that and have a decent hitting-thing.
Also! The best way to get levels and AP (ability points, which you use to rank skills) at your level is to get started on Generation 1 (Advent of the Goddess quest tab) and quests that show up in Basic, Event, and Repeat tabs! If you get other story line quests before you finish Advent of the Goddess (like Divine Knights or Alchemist or Hamlet and etc.) I would suggest not doing them until it's the proper time to be doing them (story-wise) because each generation questline is harder that the previous one, and the game likes to throw them at you out-of-order (you trigger them when you hit a certain level or something like that). The quest to be doing after Advent of the Goddess is Paladin, then Dark Knight, and then a bunch more after that~
If you have more questions you're welcome to add me as a friend in-game (if you're on the Tarlach server)! I'm always happy to help!
