Easiest FFXIV Dawntrail Class for each role! 

Will do

@@KurisuHan yeah I’ve never understood how people have a hard time with DRK when it’s literally just press your buttons on CD. They even say in the video, if you hit your buttons correctly you have strong self-sustain with WAR. That tells me there’s some min-maxing with the job, DRK, at most is managing overcap, which you almost can’t do, opener aside, the job is just 1-2-3, burst, 1-2-3, burst.

The rotation may be easier, but the defensive kit is harder to use, so Warrior is easier

@@NotRealAkira harder how? Boss does a tankbuster- warrior: bloodwhetting& damnation or invul, dark knight: TBN & shadowed vigil or again invul

Warrior is just 1,2,3 fell cleave and has less ogcds to weave in. Plus warrior is way easier to use in dungeons and has the shortest invuln in the game. War is definitely the easiest tank to play hands down.

@@NotRealAkira Its just as easy to be a DRK using mitigation. What is harder, is the healer who has to deal with the difference. They both just press a button, and take less dmg, which is enough to survive. DRK is easier (and can get even easier if ppl are willing to set things up in such a way) Not that adding 1 more combo makes WAR significantly harder, it doesnt, but I know ppl who will refuse to do it, and because DRK has 1 combo, they only play it, claiming easier.

@@xierotron I meant in the sense that if you're the one soaking damage you just... Have less stuff than Warrior. This is especially felt in dungeons, which is what someone new will mostly be doing, and it's especially bad if your healer sucks. It's not something you or I will struggle with, but I've seen so many Dark Knight players just not mit properly and you can get away with it much better on WAR. Though one thing I didn't consider is that DRK is pretty much guaranteed to off-tank in raids and trials. Therefore playing DRK would give you less responsibility than WAR, so in that setting I would agree that DRK is probably easier.

if you mean skill ceiling yes, Paladin is def. one of the hardest to optimize

@@aylaveen Ah yes thats exactly what i meant.

Very valid point. I was considering this too.

sam is by far the easiest melee imo i find reaper and viper harder to play due to how fast paced they can be sam is so much more chill

I disagree. The issue with reaper is that if they die, their damage falls off significantly more than any other mele. With viper you can't mess up combos unless you have your monitor off (or your cat walks over your keyboard) and is not as punishing as reaper who loses multiple enshrouds due to their death. With Viper, the worst case scenario is you die such that you lose an awakening for burst.

Rpr carries a higher skill ceiling, that being with trying to fit 2 communio's and a perfectio into buff windows, it's a VERY tight window and is difficult to guarantee it in savage fights. Vpr, I was genuinely baffled by how uncoiled fury basically makes the class so free to play, and you have so much room to prepare 2 reawakens into buff window compared to every other melee. Most melee's are strict with their rotation to be prepared for burst windows, but vpr doesn't do that, they literally just have to make sure they have 50/100 gauge minimum and viola, they are ready for burst window.

​@@Akue44 while I do agree vpr is easier, here ur bias and agenda is showing. U went to say that rpr is harder because their death is more punishing. And yes, a death as rpr is way more punishing, but u also said how on vpr u die and loose ur stuff, this is true of any resource job. Then u went to say that vpr is easier because of their combo being braindead, and let me tell u, ain't nothing more straightforward than rpr combo, no positionals and nothing changes lol. Even their enshroud is less prone to cause a mess up because of ot being 4 buttons. That being said, yeah vpr is easier, they designed the job to play itself and they did a great job at that.

Unfortunately I'm a one-trick pony Bard in PVP. I need to play more PVP to talk about it

@Hugo-MTX96 disagree, you can be a sub-par dancer, and as long as your dance partner is dealing damage and youre using your tech step on cd, you bring more raid damage than a machinist who is drifting their chainsaw/air anchor and failing to get a full 100 energy queen under buffs and failing to weave properly and overcapping your ogcds.

The drifting I agree with but the same thing can be said for standard step now. Weaving ain't hard, at all. I mean If it is for u, then valid that's cool. We all have stuff that we're better at. I think they're really really close in difficulty so I can see both arguments.

Uh…no, not really MCH has a ton of weaving and is heavily punished for drifting, not to mention their burst/opener has WAY more buttons to press, a lot of them being GCDs The sheer number of buttons you need to press makes moving tricky at times DNC is as simple as it comes a perfect weave for their burst/opener and plenty of mobility to boot

@@dragonriderabens9761 on dnc during burst, if everything proccs you'll be double weaving every single gcd. I'll wager is still a little les apm during burst than mch cause wildfire is fast sks, but I'm not so sure. But like I said, for me personally pressing a lot of buttons or weaving isn't hard, specially if they're the same 3 buttons.

@@dragonriderabens9761 that's easier for me than drifting standard step and tech. Plus most of the time exception to resemble and charges of drill. it's just pressing your buttons off CD really brain off class for me. I also have good ping cause I live in the US.

thanks, I'm sure I will disappoint you.

but just for farming Ex and Savage is weak, it's very good any other moment and day of the week, which MCH and BRD are not

WAR is comfier in dungeon so I'd rate it below PLD in term of difficulty.

@@sanguin3 It shouldn't be, really. If you discount overheal from Bloodwhetting, PLD and WAR have a similar amount of healing throughput. PLD is near unkillable in dungeons.

​​@@mosley3485while I agree that Paladins get a lot of healing throughput, it's worth mentioning that warriors self healing toolkit comes online much earlier in the levelling process than Paladin does. Paladins only got Clemency until it hits Endwalker. Not knocking Clemency, it can be great for saving some pulls/dungeon bosses from disaster. But it also means you're not doing damage from the GCD if you're using it. After Endwalker levels, yeah, Paladin healing is great! But in the context of queuing for, eg a trial, alliance or high level roulette, you'd be much more comfortable that you'd have self healing if you queued as a warrior.

@@sirensoulegaming4158 Clemency is ass. Most of PLD's healing throughput comes from the passive heals built into its spells, holy sheltron and divine veil.

@@mosley3485 so you agree? The bulk of it's "good" toolkit comes into action once it's in Endwalker+ content? Great! We're on the same page. I actually did mention this! (if the sarcasm has gone over your head, please tell me you didn't read my comment without telling me you didn't read it. Again. Clemency can be great for saving pulls gone wrong but is bad for damage. This is 100% true. If a healer dies during a boss, A Paladin has a much better shot of being able to keep the other players alive through raidwides where other tanks will struggle. This is the sort of situation I'm referring to when I say it can be great for saving groups from disaster. But yes, it's only for use when things are going wrong. Also, Holy sheltron is good, but Endwalker level. As are the passive heals from Paladins Holy skills. I agree that these are what makes it's self sustain so amazing, but Clemency is at least notable for it's ability to sustain other party members in dungeons gone wrong).

your mom is cringe

Counter point though. I have trouble focusing when I play reaper because its the dangerous mix of Slow and simple, so I just lose focus and watch youtube while I play it. Viper atleast hits to ADHD flashy lights and rapid movement animations to keep my monkey brain stimulated even if its about as difficult to play as building a tower out of Lego

Reaper has an upkeep DoT and a complicated burst window / setup. RPR also only has like 4 less positionals every 2 mins compared to VPR.

@@SicilianoFilms buy me a camera

​@@aylaveen You don't need a camera. Just show gameplay, not this roleplay crap that is so played out.

@@SicilianoFilms hmm ok if not camera, I want 500 dollars then

@@SicilianoFilms bro mad 💀
