Honestly if you've already done the story and this is catching up an alt you need to ask yourself:
>Is it worth $25 to skip 30 levels.
>Is this a class I really want to play.
Leveling your class in PoTD/PvP doesn't teach jack shit about how to play it anyway and if you burn out and quit because of leveling then where does that really get you.

Remember you can only jump one class.

Any other tank main considering switching to a DPS? Feels like the whole role got shafted on by the changes made in SB and its unfun to play anymore.

Who the fuck cares about summons, SMN's got a very stiff, unfun rotation that's very easy to fuck up and that suffers the most of all jobs from a death. And guess what pets in this game are still shit.

If Bahamut was just a straight upgrade to DWT and Devotion could be targeted it'd be a huge improvement.

Summoner as a job suffers from having a massive case of identity crisis as neither the devs nor the players can decide whether they want it to be a DoT-based job or a summon-based job. And having it be both at the same time without it being overloaded doesn't seem feasible.

Really, they should just revert to 2.0 Summoner, cut the pets and give it an entirely new name, and make a different stand-alone Summoner job that starts at level 30 and has no Arcanist ties in any way.

Wouldn't utility caster go to red mage?

Both can revive players but RDM has a powerful single target heal.

Both have a party wide buff (Embolden vs either Radiant Shield or Contagion) where Embolden is arguably better.

Devotion might as well not exist due to how it works.

The problem is that they made some of the DPS really fun while completely shafting tanks and healer, PLD being the exception.

AST and WHM are literally the same than in HW.

SCH is so deep in the cuckshed that I haven't seen a single faery in SB.

DRK must be mind numbingly boring as far as I can tell and WAR does less damage than a Paladin.

Yoshi's had enough of people tanking in dps stance so he's decided to just kill it, you're not actually supposed to leave tank stance anymore. Only Paladins can actually get away with it now since their job gauge doesn't affect their damage and you can bet your ass he's gonna find a way to put a stop to that too. I fully expect one of the bosses in Deltascape to have an ability that specifically OHKO's the tank if he's not in tank stance.

So help me understand:
SMN get bahamut, a proper summon since they've been crying since day one, deal slightly more dps than BLM, garuda and ifrit each have a magic and damage vulnerability debuff that BRD now no longer has, which also finally gives them an incentive to actually use ifrit again after having complained that all you need is garuda, and they're STILL not happy because fucking why?

Summoners wont be happy until they summon 1/1 scale primals, they have the highest damage in the game without their summons, and their summons deal as much damage as they do.

Remembering which card does what and what to do with it can take some time, but it'll be your second nature soon.

Don't forget that Celestial Opposition extends duration of buffs, so use it before you cast cards on everyone. Also it extends Lucid Dreaming duration.

Also with recent changes Nocturnal Sect is preferred over Dinural.

And throw Earthly Star under Tank on every pull.

It starts off really promising but after you get acquainted with Sen the excitement drops off really quickly. Doesn't help that the actions you get after lvl 60 are very dull and Kenki is stupid easy to build up and the actions to spend it have really weak animations except the AoE one.

That said, it can still be pretty satisfying visually. Also Meditating in-between phase shifts is cool as fuck. I was expecting something a bit more complex I suppose.

In short, you have much fewer things to do now than in Heavensward. There's less of an emphasis on MP management, fewer OCDs to hit, and only one other combo outside your aggro combo.

Spamming Noct A.Benefic will just make you run out of MP needlessly. It looks pretty with its numbers but it's still inferior to Diurnal.

>far more efficient than collectables
Except not really cause now you have 50 less leves for crafters (for which collectables are much, much worse), and you'll have to farm collectables anyway to get your folklore tomes, which I got while leveling miner and botanist to 70
They're definitely not bad, it's crazy good XP, but a waste on DoL

t. sheeps who didn't play it at 70 or are underperforming

While it isn't perfect by any means, it is more complex than 60 DRK, whose sole complexity was not running out of mana, which was made easy by the fact that DA has no CD which meant you only had to use it when you were about to cap mana.
While I cry for Scourge and Delirium, let's not act like it was difficult to refresh a 30 sec dot and use a different button at the end of your combo.

At 70 you actually need proper TBN usage, which is always a dps gain in grit if it breaks, is a very minor dps loss for you outside of it but provides mitigation that can go towards more healer dps.
Blood gauge has to be used correctly and must not be capped, Bloodspiller is stronger in grit so you may have to hold it if you're going into it soon and making sure not to cap.
Let's not forget Delirium which must be used as often as possible on blood weapon, so you have to make sure to have the proper gauge and aren't going to overfill your mana at the time.

Overall mana managment is harder and proper usage of the very polyvalent TBN will differentiate the good DRKs from the bad.
>>
>>381779080
But it takes you a fucking year to level gatherers through collectables alone, where you'll just accumulate more allowances than you'll ever know what to do with. And you're gonna need to level your gatherers anyway so you can even make the stuff you need for crafter leves to begin with. Unless you buy them from the market board, but that will require money which requires you to have some source of reliable income... which requires leveling a gatherer.
>>
>>381779835
so you're saying simple rotation but more complex resource management? and this only starts at 70?
>>
>>381779835
However, as we all know, none of this counts anymore, because DRK is a 1-2-3 job and PLD and WAR totally aren't!

Good post
>>
>>381780012
DRK rotation was always simple, it has always been about ressource managment. It's harder at 70.

And yes it's a valid complaint that it's complete shit to play before 70. I only started to enjoy it when I got to 68.
>>
>>381780117
I think the issue with people viewing DRK is that you have to hit 70 with DRK to fully appreciate it and asking people to hit 70 on a class right now "just so it gets enjoyable" is a tall order.

Meanwhile PLD is pretty stable all around and WAR's got hit like SCH because their "utility" was more damage and tank/healer damage got lowered across the board.

>But it takes you a fucking year to level gatherers through collectables alone

>>
>>381780479
>Zu
>Cool and good looking
You might wanna look elsewhere
>>
>>381780012
I guess that's one way of putting it. Another is this:

PLD has a main, 1-2-3 combo, and then a 4th button that gets used in place of 3 on every third combo. 1-2-4, 1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2-4, etc. Once a minute, they stop and spam 5-5-5-5-5.

WAR has a main, 1-2-3 combo, and then a 4th button that gets used in place of 3 on every third combo. 1-2-4, 1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2-4, etc. Once every two minutes, they stop and spam 5-5-5-5-5-5, and every other minute, that gets cut to just 5-5-5.

DRK has a main, 1-2-3 combo, and then a 4th button that modifies any use of 2 or 3. So one combo might be 1-2-3, and the next might be 1-42-43, 1-42-3, or. They also have a 5th button, but instead of building up a meter and then spamming it, it's used irregularly within all of your other combos, and the 4th button can modify the 5, too.


People just get tripped up because DRK's 4 is a modifier for other skills instead of a distinct weaponskill of its own.

I too hate it when tanks use their abilities with the utmost efficiency. Before they would do stupid shit like build a comfortable cushion of enmity and then swap stances to dole out more damage and make the fight go by a little bit faster.

It's a good change, because now tanks just stay in tank stance and press 1-2-3, occasionally popping an OGCD or some mitigation. This is much better in my opinion, because as somebody who mains tanks, I hated people expecting me to pay attention during the fight rather than just setting up a keyboard macro and dozing off for the foreseeable future.

I don't like defending Youtubers but you're obviously not listening.

You will have to party up for mandatory dungeons & raids sprinkled throughout the story. But if you're willing to put up with that, it has the best single-player story mode of any MMO. I'm honestly more invested in XIV's story than I have been in any actual Final Fantasy game's.

You joke, but at this point I wouldn't be surprised if they actually implemented that word for word.

I don't even mind staying in tank stance for an encounter, but if yoshi wants us to actually do so he needs to offer much better incentives for it, either by making mts deal more damage in tank stance via counterattacks and shit than they would in dps stance, or by making tanking in dps stance unviable by making passive damage actually hurt so you'll literally need the extra mitigation to survive. Sadly the latter will never happened because last time a boss actually had powerful auto-attacks was in T5 and people cried so hard every subsequent raid and trial have come equipped with foam bats.

Or maybe, just maybe he could do a complete overhaul of raid design and make it much more dynamic and unpredictable so this entire retarded dps meta can finally be abolished. But that would require people to actually get good and not just have to memorize a static checklist of moves that all happen in succession so that will never happen.

I have seen it, he makes some good points but at heart he's an autistic min-maxer who's pissed that it's harder to squeeze every single potency out of WAR now. For regular play WAR, DRK & PLD are all fine, and the balance would be perfect if they just made PLD do slightly less than the other two to compensate for their extra utility.

Warriors are pretty justified in being mad about losing their gauge on a stance swap. They're already the only tank that has to choose between their active mitigation and their biggest attack, and the only tank that can't use their active mitigation in DPS stance or their biggest attack in tank stance. It should at least be relatively painless for them to swap.

Other than that, whatever, they pretty much had it coming. It's kind of hilarious for them to end up as the actual lowest-damage tank, but they're all pretty close and SOMEBODY had to be on the bottom, so that's not really a big deal.

I really don't feel that way. First and foremost, his smug and obnoxious attitude throughout the entire video makes it hard to take his criticism seriously. On top of that, it's all a bunch of whining about things that were unreasonably good about WAR. Like, "boohoo, swapping stances is still awkward", as if WAR is the only tank who suffers gauge loss on swapping. Need I remind you, WAR stances are STILL the only ones off the GCD, so it's not even as bad as it is for, say, Paladin, but that won't stop him whining. I think he says he would literally prefer it to be on GCD than to drop your gauge in half... which would still be better than Paladin, so, I'm not seeing the validity in this complaint.


I do think warrior was hit too hard by the changes, but, it is by no mean a bad job. It's just not miles above the other tanks and auto-include anymore, and WAR princesses are having a real hard time dealing with that.

Because WAR is the only one with built in slashing debuff. Not because they'll be the highest DPS tank in an 8 man party.
>>
>>381791290
To be fair on PLD, their damage doesn't actually suffer as severely from stance swapping since losing half their job gauge has almost zero negligible impact on their overall dps, aside from them having to waste a gcd on it. WAR and DRK is much more adversely affected by it. Otherwise I agree with you.

I dunno about tank feel or output since I've never played one but my buddy who's been playing warrior since the beginning is still doing way better as main tank than most df pick ups I've had, including the paladins

>>
>>381791447
Literally nothing can make WAR more useful than PLD in Savage.
>>
>>381791290
It isn't a big deal for PLD to lose their gauge because their gauge doesn't directly impact their damage at all, let alone the WAR situation of basically the entire class's DPS kit revolving around it.

In Heavensward, penalties for stance swapping were basically WAR = DRK > PLD, from least to most penalized. In Stormblood, it's DRK > PLD > WAR, easily. That's kind of fucked up, because WAR is more reliant on stance-swapping than the other two if they want to have both good damage and good mitigation.
>>
>>381791554

What happens when DRK switches stance?
>>
>>381791660
To go into Grit, DRK loses one GCD and 3/4th of a Dark Arts worth of MP. To leave Grit, though, DRK loses absolutely nothing, and their Blood Gauge isn't affected either way.
>>
>>381791187
I don't think I buy that.
My experience so far on PLD is that MTing inside DPS stance is supposed to be a good bit harder. Hell, the thought of having to actually use Rage of Halone in Sword Oath makes me want to vomit, but now that RA isn't off Savage Blade anymore, sometimes I don't get a choice. I think the clear intention is that threat generation is supposed to be a challenge outside tank stance now, which just wasn't the case for WAR and PLD in Heavensward, and I kind of like that design path. DRK in Heavensward was great, could tank most of the fight out of Grit but it was tough to stay ahead on aggro if your DPS were any good.

So, if they make a design decision that ends up leaving WAR stuck in Defiance unable to use their strongest attack, it makes sense to me.

>>381791640
>>381791554
Well, PLD gauge is about survivability through Sheltron and utility through Intervention. You're right, it's not relevant to damage at all, but if you want to tank in Sword Oath you better be damn sure 50 gauge will take some time to build up, since you lose the gauge gen on Holy Spirit

Shit I'm dumb, I thought DRK also had their gauge halved by swapping stances like the other two did. Disregard, I suck cocks, etc.
>>
>>381791751

Switching into grit is like a ~350 potency loss then. Thanks.
>>
>>381791660
I think he is talking about grit giving more damage to Bloodspiller and more MP to Syphon Strike (the full cost of dark arts), but disables blood weapon (same as before 4.0).
