Once in a raid everything was undercontrol, so our White Mage decided to cast Holy, it was the weirdest wipe in history, there we learned two things, that all of us play without light and that our main tank is colorblind so it was specially bad for him.

@@AbsolutelyCasual Blue Mage. It's not made for functioning with the game as an mmo, it's a job designed for solo content. It learns moves based on killing enemies that can use that move. It would be a balancing nightmare to have it be able to actually function in the game, so they just gave it to us and said "haha here u go have fun with the funny meme man"

[@Warhamer116]

@@AbsolutelyCasual Essentially Blue Mage adds each enemy ability it encounters to its skillset. Basically ability vampire/shirou from F/UBW: you see it, you copy it, you run with it. These include somewhat unbalanced spells like one-shot ability that kills the enemy (any enemy, including raid bosses) in one hit- but also kills you (Final Sting), or a spell that puts every debuff and dot on the target in a cone area (Bad Breath), or a spell that just straight up stuns people around you for half a minute (Petrification). Essentially, it is a unbalanced class that was designed like that, and it can't enter dungeons/pvp/pve content and doesn't count as a class as far as the game mechanics are concerned.

Landed in Eorzea in november playing the demo, went subscription in january and tried bard, monk, paladin, conjurer and monk so far - basically had a shot at every kind of job (tank, melee/ranged/caster dps and heal) but sticking to my arrowslinger as I enjoy this job the most. Nice mobility, decent dps and great support for the whole party. Also enjoying the raids alot even though I have yet to get into a FC and experience some extreme/savage modes. About to enter Alphascape 4.0 for the first time and yet I still want to master the star/larboard thing in AS3 - the only mechanic I still panic about and hit the dirt :D After many MMOs played I really found my home although hesitant to try the demo as I always was a fan of the "offline" FF franchise and it felt like betraying my love - yet, if you folks reading love the Final Fantasy series, its stories and are a somewhat hardcore mmo fan it would be just wrong to ignore this game. And don't be fooled by the somewhat long global cooldown - once you hit level 50+ you will have enough abilities, buffs and dots/hots to take care of and to build a nice solid rotation around them :D

[@DarkDyllon]

join a static for the savage content, makes your life a lot easier (see what type of progress you're searching for) hardcore static: name says it, you'll be raiding the vast majority of the week, going for speed kills after clears itself and you gotta perform out of your mind. Midcore static: a more laid back approach, general time to beating a fight depends but the 3rd and 4th fight are generally 5-6 weeks. or a casual static: even more laid back, will clear the tier at some point, or maybe not who know. midcore statics generally have players with flexible schedules, you can find statics for midcores that do 2-3 days a week for 2-3 hours but also 4 days of 3 hours and in general, they communicate which days will be chosen as raid days each week. for Extreme trials just join party finder groups (find practise obviously when you're practising) cleared every ex trial without my static.

Time to redo this entire thing once we get the combat update come 5.0! ^^

*shit* (but really most of this info should hold true, at least to give a general feel of what the jobs do)

When he started talking about the jobs, I didn’t understand a word haha

Honestly my favourite part of this video is all the comments going "omg a genuinely informative video ARE YOU OK LARRY D:" 😂

[@echovalkyr96]

Before I started the game : God, I don't understand any of this ! Now that I play FFXIV : Gods, I still don't understand any of these jobs !

[@Trosx3]

Wow just in time, I found your Video series today and started playing FFXIV

[@Larryzaur]

Welcome to ffxiv! :D

[@ImusakHctividar]

dat end credit loop though oh yeah Y'shtola, beat me with your magic staff.

As a brand new player who has just installed the game, this video is amazing. thank you !

[@Azothify]

Larry. Hi it's Me, Mediph. We raced each other to see which SMN would hit 70 first. Anyway, do you think they'll make SMN great again in shadowbringers? Will our dongs come back? Will we have more to do than apply DoT's and become a ruinous turret? Plz respond I showed u my egi. Edit: I also forgot to mention one thing about the guide. Warrior is the highest BURST damage of the three tanks. Did some testing with some buddies using the three tanks in different fights. For long battles? DRK as offtank has highest dps over the entire fight. Shorter ones with WAR as offtank? they win. WAR is highest burst DPS of the tanks while DRK is Highest sustained.

[@Larryzaur]

Only if you race me to 80 ;D but really I'm hoping for something to do during the time we have bahamut ready but need to wait for aetherflow

[@Azothify]

@@Larryzaur I suppose I can race you again, Guess that means I need to gear my SMN as i've been letting it coast. I switched to DRK and SAM as my main classes instead of PLD and SMN. Lets see if I win the race by doing sidequests again for yet another expansion. As opposed to you dungeon spamming! Fingers crossed we don't get Raubahn Extreme or Pippin's fence again as artificial gates!

[@iwasherejuznow]

as someone who’s been searching for a mmo,i found my game. thanks so much :’)

Awesome video Larry I'll translate it to BR Portuguese and send to my friends

That would be awesome!!

[@ryanbettencourt5536]

Larry your videos are always fun to watch. I like the change up on this one. Informative yet still had some funny put in. Great video to watch for new players coming into FFXIV!

[@Alane314]

I personally call the Summoner the "healers best friend" class, I would give that title to the Red mage as well, but he was disqualified for displacing himself off a cliff.

[@NCISCherno]

We don't talk about the ratio of deaths to valid attacks to deaths due to a Triple Lindy over the edge.

[@deathstar6998]

There is one problem with this. MONKS CANT SUPLEX TRAINS!!!!!

[@Mrdantheman510]

That is true. Phantom Train is the only train in the game.

If we can't do it, at least have Godbert do it in a cutscene.

"There is a meta but it doesn't matter" As a monk main in a raid group with a ninja, a samurai and a summoner, I agree. XD

[@Warhamer116]

Monk ninja and samurai in the same group are basically a weeb triforce so its meta
