played for 6 hours today, very first mmo i've ever played and had a friend to help me out a bit to not get overwhelmed, was still pretty rough for me the fetch quests are boring and there is a lot of walking around and the story isn't doing anything for me yet but i'm aware thats normal, I do enjoy actually getting to do combat with friends but i was wondering when exactly does this game get good? especially when it comes to story

Supposedly after the first 200 hours the game gets good. If you're a fan of bland, run of the mill JRPGs that make you pay a subscription fee then you're in for a treat.

The ARR MSQ itself takes maybe 40 hours + a bit extra for sidequests. Then you have the WALL of postgame patch content before you reach Heavensward.
The story starts to pick up towards the end of the wall, and they replace almost all the English VAs with actually great ones.
Bear in mind you can skip sidequests if you want and substitute the XP with dungeons, just do any sidequests that are filled in blue as they unlock new content.
It's recommended to do the ARR raid quests, both Crystal Tower series and the Binding Coil (you can unsync Coil with your friend and a couple randoms, it's really not that hard)

ARR quests are being changed when 5.3 drops in July

FFXIV isn't an MMO

Sounds like you're being filtered. If you don't like a slow burn amazing story play something else. It'll never be the game for you.

Summoner (SMN) and Scholar (SCH) share levels, if you're a level 30 scholar and level up to 31, your summoner will be the same level. What i've seen people do is do the story as summoner while doing the dungeons and trials as a healer for the quick queue times. But just make sure to do the class quests as they have important abilities for your kit

Oh also AST is locked until you get to HW which is locked behind level 50 story

Why do I never see statics recruiting SAMs?

one billion SAMs

sams are a dime a dozen

Mods are great as long as you don't fall down the coomer rabbit hole and start installing the degenerate shit. A little bit of improved T&A is all you need.

I didn't think there are that many.

Mods are great as long as you keep them to yourself and not spam your modded character or models everywhere like Rynefag.
