New User Job Event

Event 2: Get a job!

Level up and select your first job to receive an in-game weapon that'll be sure to give you an extra edge over others! You can choose to be any one of these:...

After reading this, I went and made myself a new char just to see what I'd get and see if it'd be of any benefit to my other new character.

 Spoiler

I'm confused...so a thief only ONE-HANDED SWORD is supposed to give me an extra edge over everyone else?...I feel as if I wasted 15 minutes I could've spent sleeping D:

That being said...did anyone try making a new character on a new account of a different class? Like...did anyone actually get anything worthwhile that <actually> gave an advantage over others?

I got a Saw for making a Thief back in August I believe when they had a similar event running.

I got a lv10 staff you can buy for like 2k on my Mage. >_>;

It's even a below average saw...
