I really wish they'd just open up the gates to everyone and let people mad dash at level 30 to get to Ishgard for the new classes. Â That would be funny.
You'll get armory bonus up to 22 (Provoke is at 22) so you'll recoup some of the time lost, but it's still lost time compared to everything else.
TECHNICALLY if you hate PLD (and trust me PLD is dreadful to level until you reach level 26) you should then move on to MRD/WAR because you'll at least have Mercy Stroke, which is a good thing to splash onto anything that can take it. You get Foresight very early on too, which is a decent cross-class defense buff.
