FFXIV Dawntrail Job Action Trailer REACTION - Pictomancer 

its goofy in the best way possible, i love it

can apply canvas arts spells for each individual one of the 3 canvas with a long cast time during combat, but it's instant when casted out of battle. 1st canvas is building up monster summons. 2nd canvas does spell "weapon" combos. 3rd canvas "landscape" party buffs and heavy hitting spells. The pallet gauge builds up using light and dark paint spell gcds as filler attacks. The Light paint attacks are instant with less dmg to use on the go if need to keep moving. While the dark paint spells that have cast times but do more damage when it's safe to be stationary.

Hope you enjoy it

omg same! I'll still play my main Dancer but still, so excited!!

That's provs where they got the inspo from xD Hated those little bastards xP

its pretty much the same as it was when it was fist shown tho. I just think people are switching up after seeing what it can fully do now lol

@@davidpower5710 It's not, they basically only showed the worse parts in the reveal intercut with the added Splatoon stuff in the edits. They didn't show most of the moves that kind of tone everything down and it's noticeably less goopy sounding, it was pretty much present and loud in almost every move in the reveal. Could be a situation where the entire picture is less jarring than the stuff they focused in on in the reveal.

@@mismismism what do you mean Splatoon stuff? Because nothing has changed. Hell would even say its more "splatoon" with its dash. you even said it your self "they only showed the worst parts". Dose part haven't change. The point is that simply you like it now that you seen the whole picture. No need to try add stuff to justify yourself. xD

@@davidpower5710 Rewatch the reveal, by Splatoon, I mean they added flat paint splats and gooey sounds to the transitions then only really showed off the other paint moves that also had that effect giving the impression that the whole job was going to have that when it's not even half the moves in the full reveal. And I just rewatched the reveal, the gloopy sound effect was very loud and on the majority of moves and that was not how it is in the job actions trailer. Go see how many people thought it gave Splatoon before. That's because we all commented on what was shown, and this version breaks it up enough that it's not as jarring visually or with the sound effects which also had loads of comments. Same thing happened with Viper, what they showed before was the most bland parts of the kit. You're out here trying to pick a fight because we're saying we like the job now that we see the whole picture and it doesn't all have that flat, Splatoon-like animation.

That’s likely why they seem to have a fair amount of utility to raise overall dps despite their long cast times. Plus those potencies might make up for the lack of attacks when painting

Picto has instant casts too. And swiftcast will be 40seconds. The landscape party buff also reduces cast time for picto. We also don't know how the fight designs are going to shift in DT. There's no way for us to debate anyway without being able to play it ourselves though, because trailer + LL don't tell us everything, and anything can be tweaked between now and the launch
