It is time for one more tier record for FFXIV. Don’t be concerned this one is 100% correct, there are not any unhealthy jokes to be discovered right here.
The brand new FFXIV patch, 6.4 the Darkish Throne has been out for a sizzling minute now. And never that the race to world first for the final Savage Raid Tier of the Endwalker enlargement has additionally wrapped, we are able to take pleasure in our favourite past-time whereas ready for the following enlargement: Complain about Job stability.
Let’s ignore the truth that inside Job teams the present common distinction in DPS is about 1-3% at greatest. Until we’re healers. However who of their proper thoughts would try this? Normally, you’d most likely have to attend until everyone seems to be geared to the enamel to get an correct image of the place everybody lands.
In any case here’s a 100% severe Tier Listing of all Jobs in Closing Fantasy XIV based mostly on our expertise with the newest patch.
S-Tier
Fisher (FSH)
The one job/class value enjoying in Sq. Enix’s critically acclaimed MMORPG.
Blue Mage (BLU)
Quickly my buddies, quickly.
A-Tier
Warrior (WAR)
As a Paladin since Day 1, Warrior is barely right here out of spite. There has by no means been a Job so cuddled and beloved by the builders, apart from Black Mage. After which they determined to buff them much more for six.4. Was solo clearing degree 90 regular raids not sufficient?
Gunbreaker (GNB)
The DPS in blue. Gunbreakers is the form of FFXIV job you play whenever you desire a cool and busy rotation whereas nonetheless getting invited into PUGs. After the current patch, its harm is wonderful, let’s simply pray Sq. Enix lastly fixes having to float your rotation by one or two GCDs.
Scholar (SCH)
Everyone knows why Scholar are so well-liked. It is not the protect therapeutic that requires a minimal quantity of foresight or the fairy that at all times takes the blame on account of a ‘unhealthy server tick’. Chain Stratagem is simply that good. That makes coping with Vitality Drain value it. Until your therapeutic companion is a White Mage.
Astrologian (AST)
Ever for the reason that job bought an overhaul with 5.0, Astrologian has been coasting by as one of the vital helpful jobs in any social gathering composition. Positive it has approach too many buttons and it feels such as you’re enjoying two jobs directly however at the very least the buffs are good. Proper?
Monk (MNK)
Whereas enjoying Monk just isn’t precisely what we might name a superb time, the harm and utility the Job brings to any social gathering cannot be ignored. Have to be enjoyable to be the perfect DPS within the sport by simply punching issues actually onerous.
Samurai (SAM)
The Samurai is a Job that simply feels soiled to play. How come they do that a lot harm for accumulating their stickers and sometimes spending their Job Gauge? But it surely definitely beats having to play Monk.
Black Mage (BLM)
Black Mage is enjoyable, whenever you’re the Black Mage and the complete raid has to function round you. And it should be good that god (Yoshida) is looking for you.
Bard (BRD)
Everybody likes to have a Bard at their social gathering, however we’re fairly positive most Bards hate being Bards. Having to wrangle and delay DoTs and Buffs each few buttons in your exhausting, nonexistent rotation is ache. A minimum of you may have the Carry out ability for lonely nights in Limsa.
Reaper (RPR)
Earlier than 6.4 you can’ve known as Reaper higher Dragoon and nobody would’ve batted an eye fixed. Now you may name Reaper barely higher than Dragoon with extra mobility choices and a extra versatile rotation. Good for them.
Dragoon (DRG)
Barely worse than Reaper however because of the overall overhaul to the job the one factor it’s important to fear about is leaping into demise partitions or off ledges. Oh and Dragon Sight is fairly cool.
Ninja (NIN)
All Ninja mains are cracked. We don’t know the way you guys bear in mind doing all of your Naruto rotation on a whim however we’ve the best respect for it. You rock. No notes.
B-Tier
Paladin (PLD)
Whereas having all of the utility on this planet, Paladin at all times finally ends up as one of many weaker jobs. Even with a number of gameplay overhauls the job nonetheless performs just a little clunky. Why aren’t you enjoying Warrior? You needn’t undergo this a lot. Perhaps 7.0 shall be higher.
Darkish Knight (DRK)
Endwalker was nice for Darkish Knights. We wish you to recollect the nice instances after we topped DPS charts whereas continually being belittled by everybody else. Cling to these recollections, these good instances are over.
White Mage (WHM)
You guys know what you probably did to finish up right here. However at what value? Was it actually value it?
Sage (SGE)
Sage appears cool and has attention-grabbing gameplay, contemplating they nonetheless have to suit into the healer archetype. However enjoying Sage at all times feels underwhelming (might go for all healers in FFXIV apart from Astrologian). You simply must do twice the work to realize the identical as different healers. Perhaps 7.0 will repair that.
Machinist (MCH)
Machinist suffers the identical destiny as Sage, appears cool, and performs amazingly however finally ends up feeling lackluster. The current DPS buffs have performed some to treatment this, however let’s not act like its status hasn’t been within the dumpster since Stormblood. Perhaps they’ll allow us to pilot the Mecha Queen subsequent time.
Dancer (DNC)
Your fellow DPS love Dancer, why would not they? A tiny harm buff all through the complete encounter, an enormous one for everybody through the burst window, and a easy harm rotation that requires 0 bullshit? What’s to not love? You may be enjoying Bard although and be much more helpful. However go off you crownless monarchs.
Summoner (SMN)
The Summoner is likely one of the best-designed jobs in Closing Fantasy XIV. Its rotation is intuitive, straightforward to understand, and extremely satisfying to grasp. So why is it down right here in B-Tier? As a result of the builders hate enjoyable and suppose having a fight res and buffs must be punished. Oh, and Aetherflow remains to be a factor for some purpose.
Pink Mage (RDM)
The Pink Mage did nothing unsuitable and does not need to be down right here. It has constantly been one of many better-designed jobs of FFXIV, its rotation is versatile and it’s a must-have addition to your social gathering throughout development. However with nice energy come nice nerfs. And with the ability to increase the complete social gathering inside 20ish seconds is seemingly too highly effective.
