Over 90% of the content in the game is level-synced. It's getting really obvious what they've been trying to do for the last 2 expansions, and now Dawntrail. I wonder how long it will take for people to understand that the goal is to cripple levelling even more. (I guess the boost pots are not selling that well?)

I'm a casual blm main and I do like the changes but that's because I didn't invest the time in learning nonstandard rotation so not much is changing for me since I mainly stuck to the standard rotation. I am excited for the one time use to move ley lines though!! Haha

These are the skill that will be deleted or change in Dawntail 7.0 Dark Knight [Blood Weapon(delete), Delirium(delete), Plunge(delete)] Gunbreaker [Rough Divide(delete)] Dragoon [Dragon Sight(delete), Spineshatter Dive(delete)] Ninja [Huton(effects will change), Huraijin(delete)] Samurai [Kaeshi: Higanbana(delete), Shoha(effects will change), Shoha 2(delete)] Bard [Wanderer's Minuet(effects will change), Mage's Ballad(delete), Army's Paeon(effects will change) Black Mage [Sharpcast(delete)] Astrologian [Minor Arcana and Draw(effects will change), Redraw(delete), Astrodyne(delete)]

"drastically different" ...... Not even monk is as drastically different as EW Smn vs ShB Smn.

Hey dude don't be so hard on yourself. 💙 Nothing you said in this video (and just checked the previous) was mean spirited it's just how you feel. If your words are coming from the heart then there's no need to apologize. You may not have been 100% informed (who really is) but that doesn't diminish how you were feeling about it. It's all good - Much love enjoy DT :3

Someone new here. You did end up in my recommended. I understand you're trying to apologize, but plugging subscribe and like before getting into the apology is wild. XD

You live and learn. I wouldn't beat yourself up so much. I tend to agree with what the others said. People who are rushing through the story to level crafters amd gatherers plus their main is no fun but something no one mentioned is the bots on the marketboards, they are churning out gear and materials that aren't even humanly possible to do. This way everyone will have a chance to level crafters etc before the high end recipes drop and without the stress. Some people actually enjoy the crafting etc side.

“Nobody likes this change.” [citation needed]

oh no, i cant have perfect best in slot for new content like the other 95% of the player base who doesnt have 10+ hrs a day to throw at a game. cry more. prior to endwalker, this is how it originally was.

I can see that my takes I talked about in this video regarding crafting changes for raiding gear aren't received well, I should reiterate I only really started doing any raiding in endwalker so my experiences aren't very fleshed out, I'll work on my takes in future videos so it doesn't come off as a major bitch session, thanks for the feedback ❤

Yes you gain more stress to try to be first to clear. But you gained more time to practice and prepare. No matter what the Crafters and Gatherers had to be leveled to make the gear. Now they don't have to necessarily rush the story just to do it, they have time to prepare, get their potential macros set up, maybe even gather the materials needed to make the gear, or at the very least unlock the nodes to gather them, start building up the stockpile of scrips/tomes to buy materials to turn into gear pieces.

I don't clear Savage, I don't run Ultimates, and even I know that Day 1 crafting is historically part of the World First racing experience. It gives crafters a HIGHER purpose and end-game when they get to participate in the World Race by CRAFTING. It's called role playing. It literally HELPS the World Race, and doesn't hurt it. An non-static raiders are still gonna do PF clears even if they have pay higher MB prices for their gear. What you're proposing is less incentive to be a crafter, and thus less role playing.

Ha money for me. YES!!! I love this. I am happy about this. I have 2 gold khloe certs. Thanks SE, I love to hear these "end game" raiders cry that their fight is harder. They wanted harder and now you made it harder and here they are crying. YES!

I'm but a noob on BLM, but I'm glad Sharpcast is gone. It never really felt right to manage. And the dual purpose of buffing Fire III somewhat like an illusion of choice, or at the best a niche application I'd forget if it ever came up. It somehow felt likethe job was made more complex just for the sake of complexity, basically managing 2 buttons to apply 1 effect.

min ilevel week 1 is more exciting to play.

can't wait to login after maint, pray the datamined resources are correct, instantly craft for 8 people before raid like 1 hour later (while crafting all of it probably takes almost that full hour) yeh really bad change

so im looking and it says normal raids drop two weeks before savage. where did you get this info?

I've seen literally no one complain about this until this video randomly showed up on youtube for me. Maybe it's just the super sweaty min-maxxers complaining and I don't hang out in those circles.

I’m so happy that we don’t have to keep up with the thunder dot anymore and just cast it when swapping elements. It makes me wonder if this will make ss blm more viable since we can just cast two ice spells without waiting for server ticks and go back into fire faster. I’m pretty open minded to these new changes honestly.

This is actually how it worked for the first tier of Endwalker. The nice prep time seems to be more of a product of circumstances with the intention of the break to allow for people to do the patches story free from worry in the x.2 and x.4 raid tiers

I welcome this change it is how it always used to be. Every single raid group having access to crafted gear on day 1 was not the normal thing for all of this game until endwalker. This makes those who took the time to level crafters more meaningful. This brings back day 1 min I level sync raiding and will be exciting moving foward

I'm new to the game and I was gonna play black Mage and I did a little research before I did but that stocks for everybody hopefully it gets better

I've been playing BLM since 2.0 at the start. We had our high and lows for sure. Some claim BLM is one of the hardest jobs to pick up. I tend to agree. I have cleared every savages and extreme with BLM so far and I still love BLM. I like how we are not a reactive job but more of proactive job. Which naturally makes BLM the hardest to proc with. I am to a point where I tend to memorize floor patterns and the timing of my comrade as part of my rotation. That being said, I feel like BLM has to jump thru so much hurdles to make it work. Where as SMN is a braindead job that aren't too far from BLM's average people's capabilities. I feel like BLM gameplay is risky in nature but low on reward. Either make the job more accessible or make it more rewarding to play. BLM already suffers from stigmata.

This fight is pretty tough for first timers, especially if you are going in blind and don't know what you are doing.

Sorry for being off-topic, but how did you get the overhead HP bars to be big like that? I've been trying to figure that out but haven't been able to. I do have Dalamud, if that's required. More on topic, as someone who only plays standard Black Mage I'm looking forward to the changes. My only concern is how they handle out-of-combat mana management at lower levels (when you don't have Umbral Soul). It would suck if your only option is to lose all stacks and wait for passive mana recovery.

Dude, how have you only got less than 100 subscribers.

I have a friend who is super slow and constantly makes mistakes in rotation yet still enjoys black mage despite it's challenge. The passive MP regen with one umbral ice let them have leeway in moving around whilst regening, now they will have to strictly cast ice spells to get that regen. This might actually put off some casual players too who liked the passive MP regen.

I finally get comfortable with BLM, now this. It's Shadowbringers Astro all over again.

I don't mind BLM skill ceiling being lowered. I've always wanted to main the job since ShB but didn't have the knowledge and skill to play it at savage+ level. I didn't even know non standard existed since I always played standard. They removed the proc rng that I hated about the job. So overall a win for me. I get why some players are frustrated still.

Lmao never liked blm so had no idea about this

I always played BLM the way they are forcing us to now (ie I never did transpose shenanigans) so for me these changes are a win as its only making the way I was already playing BLM even better. I can see how the BLM players that were playing more nonstandard would be disappointed though, but yeah I personally love it and am looking forward to it.

Losing ice paradox hurts the most for me, i love that spell and being able to cast in both frost and fire was cool. It also made sense since its both elements in one

I'm honestly so over being mad about job changes. It's always like buff and dot taken away from monk, monk deadge, non standard blm gone, blm deadge, kaiten removed from samurai, the job is literally unplayable. I get that it means a lot to people, and i don't want to trivialise that, but I'm so done with dooming myself, and just want to focus on the cool shit

only 30 secs in vid to hear about the Blm dilemma is about and no the job isnt dead its just a job that is rarely used outside of endgame content afterall all jobs suck below lvl 60 but Blm suck even harder in potd they call Blm scathe mage

I thought the overwhelming consensus from the ppl that went to the media tour was that picto and viper are hella easy...? The combo quite literally guides you through the optimal rotation for those jobs.

Like don't get me wrong I agree it's a bit of a bummer that your loosing non standard but, I feel like you can't expect square to cater to a play style they never intended to be a thing in the first place, FF players got smart and played around with the server tick system, which yes is advanced stuff but if it wasn't intended to be played that way because of a bad system using mana tick, I don't feel like square should have to deal with the nightmare of re designing the job around a system they didn't intend. But it's nice to see your someone keeping a positive outlook on it too, it's nice to see someone not totally jumping on the shit train

Transpose will still be used very often bc its still ideal to instacast blizzard 3 under ice or use your guaranteed firestarter fire 3 under fire. Casting those in the opposite element makes them do massively reduced damage.

1:57 the amount of MP restored depends on your stacks of umbral ice: 2.5k at UI 1; 5k at UI 2; and 10k at UI 3. so from AF 3, B3 --> UI 3 means one B4 fully restores your MP. (as of media tour info) also sick art uwu

loved the viper class because of the style of clothing, I love clothes like Assassin's Creed, this job class looks like a mix of swordsman, Warrior, guardian, thief, ninja and lancer, dragon, almost reaching a very cool gladiator class job that is not in this game and this would be a mix of swordsman and paladin, the same as a guardian, but it lacked a whip again, urumi mace, kusarigama chain, scyther or snake sword whip retractable blade for this job class viper or even another class job in this style or remembering Auron from ffx 10 with this type of weapon and enchanter skills such as vagrant story, witcher and perhaps together or separately from the shapeshifter or complete morpher skill. There is a dragoon but there is still no valkyria mixed class of cleric and dragoon lancer rune knight dancer or singer just for girls like ravness from tactics ogre, paladin, the warrior in this version with an ax like a Viking barbarian instead of two swords or a large and robust buster sword like Cloud from ff7, monk, red mage class that is missing in the tactical versions of final fantasy, reaper that looks like a necromancer and dark knight, machinist the eenginer gunner pirate gun mage and alchemist in a single class all mixed with a cowboy outfit looked really cool, There's a black and white wizard, a ninja job class half a swordsman a thief an enchanter and elemental warrior, Summoners, dancer, bard, a mix of a singer and an archer, a ranger, there's the new class pictormancer, magic paintings, it was cool, I thought it would be something between relm from ff 6 to trainer from ff 5 or the cardish class from arc the lad 3, but it was good, giving the touch of fantasy childlike innocence, less violent or aggressive that the other classes don't have, to give the game a real touch and be half and half non-violent too much and without Don't lose the fantasy innocence and childishness, sage magic lasers of pure energy job class that plus the swordsman class makes the gladiator and or guardian class, and next to these two job classes in addition to the paladin there is the samurai and the gunbreaker that resembles squall from ff 8 and the class job gunn warrior from wild arms. Anyway, I hope for role-playing games, or action and adventure, metroidevania platform with graphics playing like the drawings sketches in drawings of final fantasy tactics, vagrant story, tactics ogre, live a live or like pastel painting of the screen drawings status of characters from Legend of Dragoons, Sword of Vagrant, uncorn overlord equal graphics for both characters and scenery in 2d, 3d or a mix of both hand painted or not and magic effects between laser beams like Final Fantasy Dawntrail 14 or anime style like Street Fighter Alpha or Guity Gear. Final fantasy dawntrail 14 is certainly another masterpiece game that many have seen, it looks like an excellent game, beautiful graphics, characters and job class, a great video. Adorei a classe viper pelo estilo de roupa adoro roupa como dos assassins creed esse job classe parece um misto de espadachim guerreiro guardião ladrão ninja e lancer dragon quase chegando a um gladiador class job que não esta nesse jogo e seria essa uma mistura de espadachim com paladino o mesmo que um guardião muito legal, mas faltou ter novamente chicote maça urumi kusarigama chain scyther ou espada cobra chicote de lâmina retrátil para essa classe job viper ou mesmo uma outra classe job nesse estilo ou lembrando auron de ffx 10 com esse tipo de arma e habilidades de encantador como de vagrant story, bruxo e talvez junto ou e separado um pouco da habilidade de metamorfador ou morfador completo. tem dragoon mas ainda não tem uma valkiria classe mista de clérigo e dragoon lancer rune knight dancer ou e cantora só para garotas como ravness de tactics ogre , paladino, o guerreiro nessa versão com machado como um bárbaro vicking ao invés de duas espadas ou uma espada grande e robusta como de cloud de ff7, monge, red mage classe de mago que está faltando nas versões táticas de final fantasy, reaper que parece um necromancer e dark knight, machinist eenginer gunner pirate mage gunner e alquimista em uma única classe tudo misturado com uma roupa de cowboy que ficou descolado, tem mago negro e branco, ninja classe job meio espadachim ladrao guerreiro encantador e elemental, Summoners, dancer, bard uma mistura de cantor com arqueiro ranger, tem a classe nova pictormancer pinturas magicas ficou legal achei que fosse ser algo entre relm de ff 6 a trainer de ff 5 ou a classe cardish de arc the lad 3 mas ficou boa da o toque inocência infantil fantasiosa menos violenta ou agressiva que as outras classes não tem para dar o toque real ao jogo e ficar meio a meio não violento de mais e sem não perder a fantasia inocência e infantilidade, sage magias lasers de pura energia classe job que mais a classe de espadachim faz a classe gladiador e ou guardião, e perto dessas duas classes job além do paladino tem o samurai e o gunbreaker que lembra squall de ff 8 e a class job gunn warrior de wild arms. Enfim espero por jogos de rpg, ou e ação e aventura, plataforma metroidevania com gráficos jogando como os desenhos esbolços rascunhos em desenhos de final fantasy tactics, vagrant story, tactics ogre, live a live ou tipo pintura de quadro pastel dos desenhos da tela de status dos personagens de legend of dragoons, sword of Vagrant, uncorn overlord gráfico igual tanto nos personagens como no senário em 2d, 3d ou misto de ambos pintados a mão ou não e os efeitos de magia entre feixes de lasers como de final fantasy dawntrail 14 ou no estilo anime tipo street fighter alpha ou guity gear. Final fantasy dawntrail 14 é com certeza mais um jogo obra prima de muitos que ainda viram, parece um excelente jogo, belíssimo gráfico personagens e classe job, um ótimo vídeo.

The PLL explained more about AST. The RNG is removed yes but the card effects are no longer solely about damage. Balance/Spear is damage, Bole/Arrow is defense, and Ewer/Spire are heals. The entire suite will always have a damage, defense, and healing component to it. Also the animation for the draw is literally Sleeve Draw from Stormblood so hell yeah. Also, Astrodyne ded. RIP.

Scholar transformation!

These are all excellent tips! Thank you for making this video.

fully did bozja got lv 25... the thing that irkls me is farming the notes. still need note 14 orsmth so ill need to solo a boss (wich i cant) or get lucky, started grinding it in 2021 orso still dont have it (i farm there 1ce a week)

I barely did Bozja when it was out. I did the all relics grind, but I did it through a lot of the dungeon and raid grinding outside of Bozja. lol The only grind in Bozja I did was Delebrum Reginae for one of the final parts of the relic grind. And I barely started Zadnor.

Bozja was just so much of a missed opportunity, especially in terms of world building. I only had enough willpower to complete 1 weapon and that's probably the case for a lot of other people. One of my friends who loves the Bozjan lore and is a big collector even said that he felt the whole thing was lacking even for him. It would be nice if SE would expand on it, but it might be a bit foolish to hope for considering the focus on the upcoming expansion and features.

It's nice that a lot of the restrictions are removed for Savage, and tombstones can now cap at 900 per week. I'm surprised that they haven't removed the Thaleia coin restriction too. I guess they are saving that unlock for the .58 patch.

During the keynote presentation it was said Pictomancer will have be able to support the party. Will it have a raid buff. I believe so. Also it's said to not be super supportive like per se dancer but also not attack focus like per se blm.

Cover use to reduce the damage you'd take for allies. But since nerfed ages ago by taking full damage and added Job Gauge cost, it often isnt worth it. I see many PLDs get themselves killed instead.

I think it just looks silly, and out of place. However, its practicality might be pretty good. I thought SCH was gonna be lame and it quickly became my main, and it had to be nerfed. Guess we'll see. Thanks for the video, fellow Warrior of Light. P.S. pictomancer shows up in FFVI, brave exvios, and relm arrowny. So no one has really heard of it, much less played it.

i feel like it might be somewhere in between black mage and summoner? the concept slide they shown mentions long casts while also having a bunch of instant casts on hand
