As a proud WAR main, Warriors view all problems as having one effective solution: Cleave it.

@UrbanCohort 2 года назад

WAR is considered the "Angy Tank", but I don't think that anger is the only emotion they feel in abundance. I think they're more passionate than anything, and like anyone who feels so intensely about...anything, they can take things too far. But a good WAR is aware of this, and while we feel everything with pure intensity, we also keep a disciplined mind.

@thirion1850 2 года назад

Thank you for pointing out that the warrior is very much lucid and strategic in spite of their savage rage. That's the key to what makes them so horrifically dangerous - they are indeed beasts that can hit like a freight train, but also clever and temperamental, strategic and understanding of both their and their foes' strengths. If I had to speculate, the original tribe was probably taken out bit by bit, systematically and through extensive levels of underhanded scheming. That the warrior tradition of old was intentionally orchestrated to be forgotten, as Eorzean powers throughout all times feared their potential. The uncompromising soul of raw, primordial humanity. Best fucking job, accept no substitutes.

Loved the video, warrior main here loving the lore. One side note, I see this missed all the time. The word decimate comes from decimal, it means to destroy only 10% of something

@Sarutobisasuke 2 года назад

Decimation, I believe was a roman military punishment where they drew lots and 1 out of 10 were executed.

@TheGreatDanish 2 года назад

While that is true of the origin, colloquial use has changed the meaning to be something akin to "thorough destruction." And actual use trumps old definitions.

@ohwowfemroes 2 года назад

Thank you for this video!! It’s nice to think my Hellsguard Roegadyn has basically gone back to her roots! I started the game with her being a marauder - the axe just really suited her! (I actually had no idea what being a tank even meant when I started the game xD FF14 is my first MMO, so I was a serious noob when it comes to MMO terms and gameplay.. Thank god for all my amazing friends who’ve been helping me out :’D) I played all of msq as a warrior (even if it meant losing a lot of exp I could’ve used for other jobs). She’s been a warrior since the character creation menu so it seemed right to let her be just that through all of msq. It really brings me joy that that kinda lines up with the lore too :)

@rezzarchkorlith2950 2 года назад

A theory, looking at this - I have to wonder if things such as the Darkside of Dark Knights, Inner Dragons for Dragoons, and Inner Beasts for warriors, are just - different manners of drawing on the same source (that not just being the person's personal Aether) - some darker center that finds different expression in different cultures.

@SynodicScribe 2 года назад

They're all different unfortunately. The only reason the WoL has an Inner Dragon is because of the Eye of Nidhogg.

@ubiwrongcomeatme3452 2 года назад

@@SynodicScribe But Teach', isn't Nidhogg just an incarnation of vengeful anger over betrayal? And the Darkside is anger at injustice within the world. So, wouldn't the warrior's anger and bloodlust stem from personal injury? There is merit to Rezzarch's idea, that these all draw from a similar source - at least emotionally, if not practically.

I like thinking every race at one point has had this type. Highlanders are known apparently for sewing amulets and such inside their clothing. I’m of the mind that before coming to Eorzea they had their own gods and warriors while still being somewhat nomadic amongst having its standard folk as hunters, farmers, shepherds or fishermen. Just my thinking.
