FFXIV Dawntrail Job Action Trailer REACTION - Tanks

[@Sammysnows]

i love how DRK finisher is actually becoming Sephiroth because you know one Winged

[@asmariamoon]

"What is with these guys remembering their tank stance? It doesn't make sense."

[@Fiishe]

I agree that they shouldn't have gutted the gapcloser animations but it would be really weird if something like Plunge where you swing the sword overhead and leap at the enemy to hit them with the sword did no damage. It would be like bard's repelling shot where it just feels weird where something that looks like it's doing damage isn't actually doing that.

[@vikteren8723]

Congrats on the son. War was most immersion breaking where was the cleave the group button? Cory will be devastated they have not included it. He needs it and Rescue for Tanks.

[@Veltharis]

My inner GNB is dancing over that Lionheart combo. :D

[@magicalduckye2356]

With it, we now have every Squall Limit Break, tis glorious!

[@Veltharis]

@@magicalduckye2356 Kind of seems like we might be losing Rough Divide (at least in its form as a gap closer), but will need to see what it looks like come release.

[@magicalduckye2356]

You're going to love the Melee Jobs, Drak. People are already saying Monk is ruined. Again.

Don't they say that every expansion ag this point?

[@RangerRobin0404]

@@pitbullseatkids2682 Hence again

[@DarkDyllon]

@@pitbullseatkids2682 it also gets changed ... EVERY expansion. people kinda praised EW Monk, all they had to do was add to it, but apparently they didn't and ... yeah. (I don't like or play monk, just going off from what I saw)

[@OhNoTheFace]

And he liked it. Turns out people just like to whine

[@MyVanir]

@@DarkDyllon But they did. It lowered the ceiling a tiny bit in some situations, like multi-target fights, but the base rotation is essentially the same - the stacks "enforce" almost the exact same rotation of gcds as in EW monk, it just moves demolish to every 4th coeurl instead of 3rd.

[@Beryllahawk]

I play WAR on my femRoe and I was SO SO excited about that last bit with the gigantic axe!!! I'm REALLY looking forward to that :D

[@Daktangle]

Dark Knight at 14:41 I think may be using a new sustain mechanic, as I don't recognise that animation and it has a "healing" colouration to it. Unless that's the new combined Blood Weapon/Delirium.

[@jijonbreaker]

I was here when the title said "Drawntrial"

[@XernuhtZwei]

I'm hoping the dash is a Role Action oGCD that doesn't completely get rid of the unique gap closers. Maybe steal a charge from each of them to reduce weaving and up the potency to accommodate the loss? If it was and appeared early enough, it would also mean PLD finally has a gap closer for UCOB/UWU. WAR and GNB definitely won in terms of flash (GNB finally completing the Squall LB set was very nice), but I'm curious to see how the 30% mit buffs are going to affect PLD and DRK, assuming it doesn't just lead to all jobs having their big mit do spike damage as well.

[@DarkDyllon]

tbh, don't think we need to shift the potencies of the gap closers, since we'll already be getting extra attacks that are stronger. like with WAR we'll atleast get a stronger version of Nascent Chaos (and guessing an upgrade to chaotic cyclone, believe that's what it's called) then also after 3 Fell Cleaves in Inner Release we'll get Fell Cleave 2 (we don't know the new name) and of course Primal Rend will also become Primal Rend 2 after using it. but i've been saying this since SB, get rid of potency on utility, gap closers are utility, so often you need to use your gap closers because it's bursting time, but you want to have atleast 1 incase you need to disengage.

[@ChrisPrice12]

i really cant wait to take DRK out for a spin. imma need to learn the new Rotation for it too which will be fun.

[@Deranox]

Hoping for good passive traits for DRK

Enhanced unmend 2 (seriously, why did they even add enhanced unmend)

[@DarkDyllon]

@@Deranox i'm praying they don't.

[@solisimperium1203]

@@DarkDyllon because they are running out of unique things to add to jobs. its just add new damage skill, upgrade defensives, or upgrade existing damage ability. we need a revamp desperately in the combat

[@sirnonsense5033]

The leader of nest nesting all over that video ❤

[@coldReactive]

If you're here watching these in order. After Warrior, comes Astrologian. Dark Knight comes after Monk.

[@fluffdafire157]

I'm worried they fused both the GNB dots under the same timer

[@0wolfex0]

Why do they constantly have to remove cool animations from DRK, even if plunge did 0 damage, why remove such a cool animation.

[@OhNoTheFace]

They sadly gutted every gap closer

[@Fungus8mycrab]

I'd say I remember to turn on my tank stance 95% of the time? Maybe around 90%

[@Lancefh_ENV]

Here's how you make tanks remember tank stance: +5% potency against enemies aggro'd to you.

[@Koyote84]

13:06, As a casual, PREACH & THANK YOU

[@Montyandrew45]

I don't think Drak realizes the possible downside of these new gap closers. If its like Monks that means Corey can dash to him

[@sasskee]

DRK and GNB getting new non-damage gap closers. Both are the tanks with too many buttons during burst. So i guess it is to reduce that. RIP plunge tho.

[@VIPCalleo]

It could also be to make people use them as a gap closer and not just saving them for the rotation for another ogcd dmg button.

[@leonaluceid2388]

I'm so hype for Lionheart GNB

[@ArteausArtane]

Let’s goooo!😊

[@Sinalve1]

I wanted more stuff done with Paladin's Shield. It's been losing it's presence ever since Stormblood.

[@trinth6538]

Bring back shield swipe. Actually made MT PLD a thing.

[@OutlawViIe]

Why were these uploaded twice btw?

[@OutlawViIe]

Nvm, KZbin is just doing something super strange.

[@CrimsonBlade104]

HI TWITCH CHAT

[@aohdakibussubara8820]

For drk if they upgraded plunge to a proper skill it'd be another warrior clone ability. Drk is meh until its fully reworked.

[@OhNoTheFace]

Guys, just keep adding to their combo, it's fine, I promise. Did that for most jobs lol. Dashes do look gutless now. Agree on just doing no damage if they HAD to

[@KingCloudsCape]

am I the only one that hates the lionheart animation? it feels so out of sync with how everything else looks in the game. Like yeah I get that squall attacked like that but it was awkward then, too.

[@AtypicalWarrior]

Why did that intro feel weird to me???

[@kyoai]

About PLD : It would be really cool if Passage of Arms (aka Angel Wings) gave you Confetior Ready (aka being able to do the Confetior skill combo). It is a bit unclear whether the chain from Requiescat is still running at that time as shown in the video.

[@PregnantOrc]

In terms of coolness: 100%. Give me that please. But doing that would turn a defensive into a "mandatory" DPS cooldown, which is not happening. People would pop it pre-pull and on CD for the damage rather than ever use it for party mit (without crying).

[@DarkDyllon]

@@PregnantOrc pretty much, it was also my biggest issue with gap closers, you need to use them for damage, but they're utility at the end of the day, so you're using utility for damage instead of having it in case you need it.

[@syaojyn]

Take out tank stance and stop having bosses go untargetable, weird takes, do not agree

[@phase269]

It is sad because the pld and war gap closer looking like they do damage but the drk and gunny aren't. It will be interesting if this is right or not and i wonder what the meta will be in the end. So hyped fur gunny but why does the Pld still have clemency 😭 come on it is a damage loss.🥹

[@DarkDyllon]

to show disrespect to your healer in dungeons. but yeah, even holy spirit/circle now heal you, fairly sure confiteor and the blade combo also heals you now.
