Migelo wants us to head over to the Sandsea Tavern. You’ll find this to the North of this same area. Once you enter the Sandsea Tavern you’ll trigger another scene and have the Hunts and Notice Board mechanics explained to you. You’ll also be forced to accept your first hunt which is for the Rogue Tomato. You’ll also receive a few new items including the Key Items; Clan Primer and Writ of Transit. You’ll now gain access to License Boards, which is where you can choose what ‘class’ you want your character to be, as well as spend LP on new abilities for your characters. You’ll also gain your first accessory, the Orrachea Armlet, you won’t be able to do anything with it until you unlock it on the License Board though. Both the Knight and Shikari are excellent choices for Vaan, to begin with, especially if you don’t have another build in mind.
License Boards
As you find new gear in this game, you won’t be able to immediately equip it. You’ll need to spend your LP on your License Boards to unlock the ability to equip the gear. Certain classes are also limited in what they can equip, for example, mage classes cannot usually equip heavy armor, and archers are the only class to get access to the best bows.
Since the Zodiac Age edition of the game now allows you to change your class at any time, you can feel free to pick whichever class you want to start and then change later if you decide you want to try another.
Once you’re done in the Sandsea Tavern, leave and head south to the Southern Plaza, along the way you can enter Migelo’s Shop and buy some Potions if you need to stock up. From the Southern Plaza, attempt to head east, and you’ll be stopped by a guard. After the scene, you’ll show him the Writ of Transit and be able to enter the Eastgate. Head out of the Eastgate to arrive in the Dalmasca Estersand.
Dalmasca Estersand
The Estersand is our first location where enemies will roam freely and we can start to grind some levels. There are a few things to mention at this point, if you are playing the Zodiac Age edition, then you will have access from the load screen to the Trials. If you enter the Trials at this point and find the chest in the first one, you can farm Diamond Armlets from it. Grab the Diamond Armlet and then continue to fight until Vaan feints. At levels 1-5 this will be a very quick rotation. These Diamond Armlets can be sold back at the shops to give you enough money early on to purchase a large stock of Potions and Phoenix Downs. It is highly recommended that you do this, as it feeds into the Dustia Farming below. We’ll be using a large number of Phoenix Downs to gain levels with Dustia Farming, below is how to do it. Skip the two videos in the next section if you’d prefer to play the game without taking advantage of an early game level boost.
