You shitpost like that, but there are some headasses that want a BLM rez unironically. I sure as fuck hope those aren't the same clowns that cry homogenization all the time. SMN rez was a mistake desu, and only happened because of the failed ACN experiment. What we need is phoenix down being usable mid-combat and having bigger inventory stacks.

Nah, SMN has had rez capabilities in every game.

I was tempted to be a mentor because I genuinely want to help sprouts, but the crown has reached a stigma of being awful at the game that I fear my help would be turned down outright because of it.

I'M GONNA SAY THE C WORD

Having the crown and actually being good gets you more commendations

Either DRK and PLD will be nerfed right before release or WAR will be buffed to the top

Yeah until they start moving then the shine comes off that apple real fast.

They're not necromancers.
Unless you seriously think stuffing a voidsent inside a party member's body would be a good res ability.

Eh, I got used to it pretty fast

Gonna get a PS4 copy when Shadowbringers is out to co-op with my bro. It has two of my favorite things in FF; gunbreakers and choco bunnies, though I've rumblings about whether it's a good DPS class or not.

THM (the BLM base class) are though, at least to a limited degree. I'm not even saying I want BLM to have a rez, but if they DID get one I'd want it to be that way is what I'm saying.

It’s a tank

this is a standard wow-style holy trinity mmo and classes have no specializations. gunbreaker can only tank, if you want an armored melee dps your option is dragoon, samurai, or to go fuck yourself because yoshi-P is a hack

THM are priests of a death god but they aren't necromancers. They just perform funeral rites. Necromancy in XIV doesn't actually bring anyone back to life, it just animates empty corpses with void energies or with an actual voidsent. And if we're talking about THM lore then really they should have been the class that upgrades to WHM anyway. Not only are they priests focusing on life and death, they were the support mage in 1.0.

Nah, Elezen are great as they are. Everyone wanting petite elezen or viera are fucking gay

>implying you still won't either get ignored or chewed out anyway regardless of how nice or concise you are.

Last time I tried to help I was calmly explaining how the Black Mage rotation worked to a BLM in the sirensong sea, and then him and the tank who I assume he was premade with just left and ruined the run. This was a guy who was using Fire III as his main damage spell.

Lorewise we don't die tho. Just Echo showing us bad end

Don't forget MCH and ping dependency

But it does the least damage of tanks by a considerable margin so it's a useless job unless it's potencies get buffed

I started playing because of the livestream being hilarious, I've never played WoW before. The last/only MMO I played before this was Star Trek and I never got to endgame.

I already put the money in for this month. Plus a friend of mine started getting into it and I'm helping him through the story.

>we were able to remove the TK tumor. >Unfortunately, we also removed half your brain. Please understand.

I mean pretty much any class can tank the intro dungeons. The issue is more holding hate than the damage by a huge margin.

That's the way it should be though, not only for balance, but to keep the classes thematically consistent. PLD already has the best utility. Fuck I wish Yoshi P and the boys were good enough at math to get potencies right the first time.

Very wrong

Explain yourself.

Is BLM fun?

MNK is bad

At least in ARR we had IR and howling fist

Stupid frogposter that posts the same stale pasta

Stop trying to turn everyone into cat reskins.

Yes.

Explosions is fun

He means that you no longer have to do an enmity combo at the start of a fight. It was the only hard part of tanking.

Yes
No
Maybe

He thinks that because he doesn't do one aggro combo per fight anymore he's no longer a tank

Best job in the game
Part of me hopes that MNK will do a lot of damage to compensate, but I know it's not going to happen. The jobs lost it's identity and simply exists now

consider this: it's good

The most fun job in the entire game, being the only person in the party that can visibly chunk boss HP bars outside of SAM's occasional crits is fun

>The jobs lost it's identity and simply exists now
MNK identity has always been GL and positionals. Don't know shit about 1.0 and honestly I don't give a fuck, but that was MNK in ARR. How can you say it lost its identity?

So it's just fun because of big numbers. Strange that nobody has mentioned the gameplay aspect.

How much knowledge of the fight do I need in order to be good? I've only played WHM so the game's been on easy mode for a while.

Wait is he casting enochian there at the end? Did he drop it?

It's a caster job. You cast things. I smell the angry RDMlet

a lot, actually
it's what makes blm hard since it's a very static rotation otherwise

you pretty much need to know fights beforehand because you will be staying in place for 90 percent of them

>reading comprehension
You're just pretending right?

You need t I know fights so you know when to place leylines and where to place them.

You sit still and blow things up. Very basic rotation.

If you want to see big dick damage then you'll enjoy it. If you want something more complex that has more mobility then pick melee dps. (You).

Tank actually looking for a dps. But my you're defensive.

Yes, you can see he has no orbs around him showing his astral fire/umbral ice.

Well, I like big dick DPS and assblasting tanks so I'll definitely play BLM, htanks bros.

He's just another one of those people who were upset about elezen not being generic anime elves and about viera not being generic anime bunny girls.

Why should they?
They still don't have a guaranteed raid spot because logtrannies are obsessed with utility, even if stacking all the utility in the game was worse than just bringing a SAM and BLM.

I can't believe they increased AF/UI timers to 15 seconds! They're casualizing my job!

Nah, it's like anime wow as far as gameplay goes. queue for shit, turn in tokens, get gear.

Mentors are unironically worse players than sprouts. A sprout can be dumb but they're largely likable unless an aggressive lost wowrefugee and they actually try their best and can appreciate help. Mentor crowns have about as much skill but with less interest and a huge unwarrented ego. Doesn't help that so many of them are shitty miqo'te or trannies. I don't know what their deal is but they constantly die first and freak out if you tell them how to kill a boss/not die. Worst part is? Sprouts might think their Mentor Crown means something too and Mentorfags are more than happy to prey upon that. Disgusting.

Nigga aether makes you powerful as fuck, who cares what you look like?

The 20% buff to deep meditation is there to compensate for the loss of Internal Release. We won't actually be generating more chakra.

But the bigger question is why remove Monk's OGCDs at all but keep worthless shit like Fists of Earth? It's literally just removing buttons and dumbing down the gameplay. If their oGCD attacks weren't interesting then give them more interaction with the rotation somehow. Make them give you a guaranteed crit or a free chakra or something.

Learn to read, brainlet

Did BLM get cucked this expansion?

hitting hard and fast without slowdown or gay burst windows. Now MNK is burst, but not the good kind of burst like the tornado kick rotation was where you do one every 30 seconds and instantly your your stacks back. Why give the job a skill that uses it's resources if you never want them to use said resource 99% of the fight? Stormblood gave the hard hitting melee job to SAM and also made MNK slow down with Riddle of Fire, the tornado kick salvaged MNK by allowing it to go fast and hit hard even if it wasn't the intended design. Now with 5.0, MNK plays like it did in HW with less oGCDs and still with the gay burst window that slows you down.
>give GL4
>riddle of fire still slows you down
>six sided strike delaysyour GCDs by two presses
Yoshi has no idea what to do with this job and should never have touched it, let whoever handled it's 4.3 buffs have say on MNK because they clearly knew what they were doing.

Any job playing like they did in Heavensward is a massive improvement.

I think this might be a crossdresser but I would hit it anyways.

Are you implying Alliance Roulette was ever anything but CT before?

Yes
Any of them, but tanks will have easier times getting into dungeon queues
No, side quests are largely a waste of time

Always go long ears, might as well not play an elf if you're not going to max out the ears

you can play it solo for the story alone all you want. The game has an automatic party matching system for dungeons and other mandatory-multiplayer content so you'll be fine.

Red Mage is the best solo class but you can't unlock RDM until you hit lvl 50.

They are very boring fights and you're locked into level 50 rotations which is very bad as well. Then you got the funny retarded dps/healers pulling the nanosecond they get there while half the group is still walking to the boss. Those things are what I'm tired of.

MCH looks like it's actually fun now, but it's also now even more ping dependent and its rotation doesn't automatically line up with burst windows so parsefags are having a conniption.

You know they aren't using the roulette to do the raids, right?

What type of sword will the next job get for the next expansion?

GNB's combat stance is how I always felt the DRK one should be, what it is now looks like it'd put unnecessary strain on the wrists.

Nobody in their right mind is using the roulette to grind the event.

nice, this is really good to hear, it shows me there's lots to do and to grow your character you're not necessarily required to join a FC, thanks user for giving me hope. I'll consider your starting classes hints as well.

That being said, is there any class storyline that's exceptionally well done (out of the starter options). I saw some video where someone started as arcanist and i really liked their look and "profession" as some sort of tax/mathematician kind of guy?

Why are you even queing for roulettes then?

Do people really think they are going to make healing a priority? Your damage is getting nerfed and healing will still be easy as fuck

why doesn't tsubame gaeshi just trigger on the same button as iaijutsu if you have to use it right after

It's actually Δ4S

welcome to why healer design in ShB is a problem

Maybe they'll make shit hit harder?

From the media tour shill videos I've seen, healing requirements do seem to have been increased, but probably not so much that you won't still be DPSing the majority of the time. Tate said that the mobs in the lvl 73 dungeon "hit like a truck" and his heals felt weaker than normal even though he was synced down from 80.

I didn't think they would be able to do it, but they managed to work in all/most of the QoL a BLM could ask for, while also adding new things, all without changing anything substantial.

You lads think i could run this game well enough on my surface pro 6?
I'm often tempted to resub but lets be honest this game is casual as fuck so I'd like to be able to get some grind done at work or in between classes, or while chillin on the couch.

The greatest thing PSO ever did was remove the dedicated healer role. FF14 should have done this too.

thaumaturge is pretty good
rogue too, which isn't technically a starter class but it may as well be considering how early you can get it
of the expansion classes, drk is generally considered to have one of the best questlines in the game so consider it if you make it to heavensward

dark knight is generally considered top tier, but out of the starter options i'm not sure. i'm pretty sure either pugilist, arcanist (it technically has two as it splits into summoner/scholar), or maybe gladiator? i'm not super well-versed on the stories though, it's been a long time

FUCK this is a hard choice. On one hand, I don't wanna seem like a tranny, but on the other hand, girls in MMOs always, 100% true, have the best fashion choices

Unless you're crafting like 10-20+ HQ items on every job every single day you'll never get it without deliberate grinding. I've been playing for 4 years, have all crafters at 70 and don't even have 2k HQ crafts on any crafter.

You do them when in Umbral Ice, try to do them when Triplecast or a proc is up, or you just accept the clipping because losing a third of a GCD matters less than keeping the raid alive.

Alternatively, make someone else do it.

ARC/BRD is one of the more active jobs early on and they're a pretty good job all around. You can also change to whatever other ARR class you want to when you hit level 10.

all the classes in this game are viable outside of super high level speedrun bullshit, just pick whatever class looks the coolest to you

Addle and Mana Shifter are OGCDs. You should be able to find plenty of time to weave them between your GCDs.

Arcanist is probably the best option as you get both a healer and a DPS in the time it'd take to level one class.

My WoL is an 8ft tall adorable femroe. She is friendly and sweet, and heals her comrades, and she has a cute little sister voice and a pixie cut.

How is your progress going? I've been primarily saving ALC and CUL for last since they generally need the smallest amounts of the most unique materials. WVR in Heavensward sucks because of all the mats and crafting around Holy Rainbow Cloth.

well theoretically they only showed midare so they could change the other two, i don't into programming but i don't think changing some colors is that hard if we make a stink about it

BLM is the most rewarding job in the game for feeling your improvement, it's why it's Yoshi's main.

When you start a fight for the first time, you will get shit on, maybe die a few times, and be pretty fucking useless. You eventually learn where to optimize, where to play chicken with your cast times, dodging AoEs at the last second, and then you hit crazy numbers. They have a relatively simple rotation, but learning to play around mechanics keeps the job very fresh and satisfying.

A lot of people prog with RDM and SMN and then switch to BLM when the training wheels are ready to come off, but in ShB they got so many QoL changes I won't be surprised if people try to prog with BLM anyways.

I just started, made a male character because I didn't think playing a female in an MMO would be a good idea. I played for five minutes and realised my character looked lame, restarted and made a cute/ugly fishtroll girl instead.

They obviously began working on Hrothgar after Viera but Yoshi did say they had Hrothgar in their mind for longer

BLM can be really great in prog for those exact same reasons. If you're ever up against an enrage or phase push, BLM can get you through it in short order. And it kind of forces every one else in the group to play better or at least more cautious, since there's no caster rez to fall back on.

is this a shitpost or are you still stuck the era before the benchmark? it's already confirmed Hrothgarr aren't reskinned Roes if that's what you're implying.

that's fine for the first few levels, actually. you want to save as many leves as you can
leves, specifically the delivery ones for 1-50, and crafting beast tribes are what you want. collectables are fine too when you get to them

They've been considering Viera since ARR, they were originally going to be the new race for Heavensward but Yoshi thought the males didn't look tough enough.

Viera are just hyur/elezen with bunny ears and prettier faces

>always seen as serious Amazonian tribe women with previous background of being a serious Amazonian tribe women.

Not too surprising honestly.

Hrothgar are rekinned roes
Viera are reskinned elezen, but they get a pass because they existed in other games

Well you're losing out on the straight shot buff since straight shot isn't a thing any more, so even if you can do some nice burst every 80s you're losing out on a lot of damage thoughout the fight.

That's what I've been trying to say for the last several days. It's not hard to imagine that in a 90s period, you'll need to cast at least three GCD heals. Just swap a Cure 2 with Solace or Medica with Rapture, if fairy shit and regens aren't enough.

yeah the problem is they're thinking in terms of it being a striking dummy where of course you're not going to be casting any of the afflatus heals, when that's not how any of the healers work. if you're casting one of the procs for afflatus misery you weren't casting glare to begin with and you've lost no dps. if your cooldowns are gone or not useful in the current situation (ie tetragrammaton is down and all you've got at the moment are asylum and assize and you need big dick heals NOW) there's no reason you wouldn't be reaching for solace, and that'll lead to a free misery over time which is a 600 potency gain over the glare you were just about to cast

I would personally like to find out minfilia is the one behind the light being spread on The First, and we instead get to party up with the Warriors of Darkness

unimaginative faggot

I wish it was possible to find this little cunt and cut it in two

Urianger, Thancred and Y'shtola will actually get some screen-time this expac. It won't be full-on /comfy/ like Heavensward was, but we'll actually get to see the Scions in a regular capacity this expac. We didn't even get that in ARR when they were at the forefront.

holy fucking CRINGE. literally worse than lalafell players trying to look badass in full plate armor.

Hardly ruined.

They look like shit until you're out of the burlap sacks they stick you with.

>waddles around with an axe out like they're about to shit their pants
They should just delete them entirely honestly

GEO should be the 4th caster dps, fuck the "water is for healing" meme, i wanna flood and quake niggas

Did you know that Alphinaud can't swim?

GEO should be either a caster DPS with a bell or a melee DPS with a hammer.
I want a chemist healer with a magic rifle. I just want one healer job that males can use without looking like a flaming homo.

Not getting Tornado confuses me but I guess we'll see it come 6.0. Friggin' Conjurers had it in 1.X but we never got it as an "Aero IV".

They look great in BLM af1 faggot

Fuck off pedo

AF1 doesn't look good on any of the races, begone

But the nuThancred and Y'shtola are among the dullest characters in the game, so seeing more of them is only marginally better than Lyse.

Looks fine desu. Reminds me of the black mages in FFIX. Just a big ol' construct filled with mist and magic.
