With the recent monk changes, would you still open with bootshine, twin snakes, and demolish before weaving perfect balance given the buff and dot are gone?

I would say brayflox hard would be a pain for the first pull, if you do go from the entrance to the door to the first boss.

No I will not ask tanks to pull more in high level dungeons. I will pull the entire pack if he doesnt.

are you gonna make an updated version of this for the DT rework? all your job starter guides have helped me massively, but i am not entirely sure what to make of the way the cards work now :> either way thank you for improving my journey into new jobs!

I heard white mage was easiest so when I got into healing went there first. I was struggling. Turns out barrier is best for me. Sch in early game then I got to sage and it’s my love my heart my everything. I love it more than tanking. It’s my go to.

Is it true i can change to Ninja when i pick archer for starter? Sorry im totally new i downloaded the game that night😂

I had a Healer God Complex once, it was justifiable tho but I'm ashamed of it now Basically I was running AV with 3 sprouts, before the first boss I warned all of them "don't let it stack more than 3, eat the fruit", "I can't heal you enough if you let it stack that much", an exaggeration on my part but I was urging them on the mechanics at first so they could do the same later on, cut to the last boss and there was the tank, after eating the fruits correctly in the first boss, now sitting at 5 stacks and going up, I just gave up healing them (after forgetting to cast a GCD heal and queuing an attack skill lmao) with an attitude of "I told you so" and made the DPS tank it for the last 5≈10% of the boss' health Did it feel good? Kinda. Do I regret it? Yes. Nowadays I do a callback for the mechanics, in AV just before the first and last boss, I actually don't really care if the tank isn't eating their fruits unless the stacks go up to 6 or 7 (to which I start spamming the chat while healing them), AV isn't that important anyway and it's so low level that it's not even fun going into it and having nothing go wrong anymore

Thank you, this guide helped me finally take up DRK, and its been great so far learning a new role.

Great video, I liked the linear, rational explanation because it allowed me to set up my hotbars in real time while I listened to a configuration that makes sense.

It’s annoying with drk, the free mitigation only applies when tbn pops unlike with the rest of the tanks making it unnecessary

Bro monk rotation is cooked again in dawntrail. Start dragon, twin, demolish as usual but from that point on, you use bootshine for every single opo stance followed up by an incorrect stance dragon kick before moving to the next stance lol.

i replied to you other comment in another video, but aside from that, i do wonder now if some classes difficulty will change drastically due to the new changes, such as movement skills and skills being combined, i hope to see another video after maybe a year to see what the polls change to, or stay the same.

New comment. Do you think blm with speed is now better since there is no delay on getting mp?

Rest in Peace Endwalker Monk, i miss you already. I will say, Dragoon is evil with how slight skill speed or downtime affects the weaving windows when skills come off cooldown, which means you either clip the gcd or drift by 0.5s, which feels terrible, thankfully it doesn't matter too much if you are still using things in buffs. (Or worse, die at any point and exist in purgatory for the rest of the pull)

Freaking warriors man. They were strong as hell when the game released. They're strong as hell now. And they feel so satisfying to play. But Blue mage is another beast. It's like sitting down before bed and laying all your Yu-Gi-Oh or magic cards out to build the perfect setup for the next challenge.

I am definitely going to use that black mage AoE rotation while I still can!

Keep it up dude

What makes them easy are the absolutely dumb devs who keep changing all jobs to make them easier every DLCs and updates. Black Mage? Nerfed to the ground in term in difficulty when Endwalker came out. Monk? Changed to be way easier when Endwalker came out (rework) and then changed AGAIN with the release of Dawntrail (no more DoT, no more personal buff and just follow the flashy buttons). Summoner? Nerfed to the ground when Endwalker came out. Dragoon? Reworked in and changed in Endwalker and Dawntrail.

Can you do a updated version of this for DT update

Why are there so few guides like this ?!?! This is absolutely the best SMN / ff14 guide ive ever seen. Every other guide in the existence of the game assumes your raiding at end game on the razers edge of the new xpac.

i´ve done ytyp a few times myself, though almost everytime i did it was bc someone would pull non stop and not react if i said something, after doing that once they would not do that again for the whole dungeon

Viper guide? 🙏🙏

I fully understand this can be addressed in an upcoming video, but the changes to astro for Dawntrail are incredibly controller friendly. Play 1 can be assigned to DPS and that only needs to be pressed once every 60 seconds (or twice every 2 minutes under optimal play). The other play buttons are basically for tanks in optimal scenarios or flexible buttons for party members if the need arises. Significantly better than giving a card on a 60 second timer and 3 cards on a 2 minute timer under ideal conditions. Don't let astro discourage you from trying the class.

No way I’m memorizing 30+ sequences while doing mechanics and therefore will forget where I’m at. I suck at this game. Too intimidating.

I was also waiting for the action combine change. I was pretty disappointed when I discovered it’s only featured for new skills above 90. As a controller player, that would be a huge quality of life change to save on hotbar space.

Watching your content to pass the time since FFXIV on Xbox is unplayable 😅

Since I'm also playing tank too I sometimes jump forward first forgetting I'm playing melee rn and not tank 😅 stupid muscle memory putting similar tasks in the same slot with different classes 🙈 fortunately it always work just to pardon cuddle with tanky a few secs and I'm free of aggro again xD Also I don't judge tanks who don't pull w2w all the time. I'm pretty new to tanking myself and Tankxiety is real, especially when I'm unfamiliar with the dungeon. It's a learning process. But yeah, CS pullers deserve no merci. They pull and die all alone in the field

It would've been nice if you brought up timing SS during downtime to hit right as the boss phases back requiring very high levels of timeline awareness along with certain comps/fights benefiting from swapping standard step targets due to either priorizing specific jobs for strong filler/burst or specific phases in general instead of pretending like it didnt exist to make the job seem more braindead than it already is. DP swapping and precasting SS during downtime perfectly is very rewarding but also difficult.

I am guilty of YPYT, when I tank a new thing and inform at the start that I am unfamiliar with the pulls ahead of me, or someone consistently pulls bosses and everything. I do give one warning and ask them to stop, and remind them that this is new to me and do not have confidence to full-wall pulling. Usually it stops and we take a 10 to get it fully sorted, but I have no qualms when someone pulls when everyone is present due to cutscenes. I always do ready checks when I hear a whisper of “new to dungeon” so when someone disregards it and well… I lose my tolerance quickly. I would want to work on it, but when someone ignores the chat and bum rushes, I can only do so much. ( U_U)

Ive been heavily contemplating maining drk for heavensward but dont have much experience tanking, this helped me feel more confident

Moon flute also gives movement speed iirc

""""Main purpose"""" i wish healing was my main purpose, but warrior hasnt been nerfed so I literally do not need to and if i didnt attack id hit 0 buttons for 20 minutes

Dancer is my favourite DPS. The personal damage sucks, no matter how much I tried to get better gear or change my materia traits. Then again, Dancer is really a support class. It's not designed to shine on its own. A good DPS when paired as a Dance Partner will top the damage sum. And boy - I just love having healing, shield and buffs skills in one class. And one thing people tend to forget - Dancer shines as an AOE party member. Dungeons with lots of mobs loves a Dancer!

Hardest is MCH cuz you don't get accepted in PF

I started out with WHM, but ended up loving SCH so much more. I also love the aesthetic of SCH. SCH all the way!

I main MNK myself, also agree that Optimal Drift is overwhelming and can make it sound hard. But actually, the core filler loop is easy to follow. The standard looping lunar-solar is not that hard. In fact, the damage difference between loop and optimal drift is not that much. If you not playing for high parse, the looping version is enough.
