Just started on the free trial. Making a male Roegadyn Paladin. Super hyped. Your content is very well done, precise and the graphical overlays and such are superb. Keep it up!
I really like this short video! I have no idea of the jobs in this game and its hard to watch an endless video when you need to watch so many to learn about the jobs. So this is a nice short video.
I am so glad that your videos inspired me to start off as Paladin. I tried summoner and the rotation made my head spin. Paladin rotations just feel so easy, I love it.
I'm level 76 and I just realized that the magical rotation is a thing. I was wondering what the point of those long cast magic spells was on a physical damage job. I didn't realize requiescat made them more powerful than my melee rotation. Thank you.
You know, I consider myself as a somewhat of a veteran player, having maxed out every job. But I still continue to learn new things. Usually, I blow Fight or Flight immediately upon entering combat; it didn't occur to me that you could do it 1-2 GCDs later. And while I might Shield Lob + Charge at the start of combat, I haven't tried using Holy Spirit + Charge. Might be nicer opener. And I also haven't thought about the AoE difference between melee and magic! Starting with Magic rotation is something I have to try next time I'm chain pulling mobs. My paladin gear will have to make do with Crit + Det though, instead of Crit + DH. My main tank job is Warrior, and they use Crit + Det because of the Fell Blade window. But, I don't think it'll lessen Paladin's DPS by too much.
i stared playing pld a week ago as my first tank... played a lot of casual 80 content with it... and i was today years old, when i learned how to use the magic rotation properly
i think magic opener is more efficient because the OGCD are up in a better way, like when you've done your DOT and poup, requiescat come just after, but it's like that in fight with no wait beetwen phase i guess^^'
Thank you for this! I wanted to get a refresher of my PLD stuff. Since its been a bit since playing that spect. This was simple and easy to understand. Short as well... not super looooong zzzzzz. :P My a.d.d. noodle apprentice it.
Huh, I always though that DH was best for PLD (maybe that was in SB?). Upon looking it up a little bit, it seems I was out of the loop! I guess I'll have to re-meld Crit where I can, and DH where I can't. Cheers!
This class sounds like it would be really fun if it was more situational based. It's got party heals/buffs, ranged magic and melee attacks. Unfortunately it seems far, far too rotational based and those other things are only allowed to happen if 'timed right' which doesn't sound very fun to me.
I mean the thing is, if you know a fight and are playing correctly you will have nearly 100% uptime for dps on a boss as a tank. So yeah. And basically every class has a rigid rotation. Theres only a few that aren't completely rigid, like bard, and dancer. But even they still have a foundation of rigid things you have to do. If you ever wanna complete anything more important than a story trial or a dungeon, you gotta try harder. Because the harder, rewarding stuff has dps checks. Your party doesn't meet it? You wipe.
Hey dude, I am about to start the game, although this seems like a very helpful guide, I think you should've briefly explain which race should I pick for a min/max efficiency in stats. Thats the info I am looking for and believe me, its very hard to find. The biggest challenge is find up do date info
holy shit, I'm here trying to decide if to buy the Lvl boost for PLD, and now I'm doubting myself because I thought it was simpler to be a PLD, dam... this is complex af
@@-LucidDreamer- uh that's just the subscription. But having to buy the hardware plus the game can he expensive. So yeah... it's not just the sun you are paying for. $12 a month isn't rock bottom. It's the $200 for the playstation 4 or $500-$800 for a decent pc and the $60 for the game. Get a little more perspective than just the sub please
@@Kayla-xt9hx i mean yeah but you had to already have those things to even have enough experience to miss it in the first place. Even 400$ for a playstation isn't much. And they last several years. Playstation plus is literally like 5$ a month. If you build a pc and make good choices in parts, your pc could last even longer then a playstation, while also having better performance too. I dont see how the cost of the platform effects your ability to subscribe months later
@@DesperiusFFXIV Awesome thanks! As a WoW convert I am used to an Icyveins or something that lays out the latest info. In FF14 they assume you just know the discord info like a psychic. This video is extremely helpful.
I always try to deliver those Icy Veins info in form of guides. Maybe the more my channel grows, the faster I can put out job guides for each balance patch or expansion 😊👍
@@DesperiusFFXIV Well it is helpful because if you use the in game stuff you would think stacking Tenacity and Piety is how you were supposed to slot for a Paladin.
@@DesperiusFFXIV Thanks again! Took your advice. The 460 sets get Skill Speed up to 962 with gems and also caps Crit. That allowed me to focus on Direct Hit and Determ.
@@DesperiusFFXIV i remember when i was in a static and we had a scholar who was heavily focused on DPS (leaving both tanks near death aslong as he could get 1 more cast in, for the most part it worked fine but when omega 6 savage was a thing and both tanks take heavy damage he had me cast clemency every so often (granted, this was before the requiscat making magic instant casts so it wasnt that bad) in the last tier he fixed this glaring issue thankfully, was annoying having to cast clemency when we have 2 healers (whm and sch) focus on dps vs keeping the tanks alive (granted, a good portion of bosses were tanked by the dark knight due to having more magic based CDs and both o11s and o12s were heavy on that)
@@danielthompson8281 yes amarout final boss so funny to finish in alone pld one time i make 45% alone i take 3 time the burst laser and survive really funny and good when you tag in pu^^
@@dharcsu cant wait for the next league so i can enjoy osrs again, haven't been able to enjoy my main ever since being hacked (losing my whip, armor sets, BP, 22m cash stack and more) Twisted League was fun, hopefully it won't take months for the next.
Its the first boss of the last MSQ dungeon. It really was an intense fight, because our healer died very early and I had to heal the group. Had 2200 life at one point 😅👍
Body and head are 60 job gear. Pants are dyed tights (doesn't matter which ones really) and boots are 2B boots. Weapon/shield is middle form of anima weapon I think.
Kazuya the version outside of Japan is FF2 where cecil goes from drk to paladin. North america never got the Japanese FF2 but got a later FF game labbled FF2. Why they did that? I dont know.
@@michaelmichaelagnew8503 yeah I assumed you meant the real FF2, and not the American release lol. They did the same thing with FF3, 5, and 6 as well. From my understanding, it was due to 2 and 5 being poorly received in Japan, and 3 underperforming in sales due to consumer faith shaken by 2 lol, so they didn't release them in the states just to tank. Personally I loved both 2 and 5.
@@tdmc6428 doubt that PLD will receive nerfs, right now it's the weaker out of the 4 tanks (in terms of DPS) which is only offset by having a CD for every situation possible. Nerf the dps more? i follow my rotation pretty well and i generally hit slightly lower than any of the 3 tanks (unless i get a partner that is purple/orange parses) what, nerf the CDs? oh wait, they already did with shadowbringers with Cover not mitigating a native 20% damage, making it overal less usefull, was nice to just cover the MT, take the hit+debuff, then move out of range.
As an aspiring Paladin, I thank you for this quick guide.
You are welcome !
Indeed, thank you aswell.. Much to take in though. But, fighting! :D

I rember this vedio when first i started ffxiv 1 year ago, and now im double legend as PLD
These kind of vedios is really really helpfuly ty man ^^
Helpful guides as always!! keep uploading more videos bro great job!
What armor glamour is that? 😍
Love that you put Beatrix's theme in. So good!
Ty, it suits the Paladin well, even when Beatrix doesn't have a shield
1:50 Don't think I don't recognise that Saradomin Godsword.
I thought im the only one seeing this😂😂
I jusy enjoy the sheer number of defensive cooldowns. I've always got something ready to use, and the shield ups my defense even more.
PLD is awesome, although i pref stormblood paladin, even the casttime is smth i would take to get rid of atonement.
Atonement is a bit idiotic, I must agree
@@DesperiusFFXIV It disturbs a bit of the "flow" i liked about paladin thats why i dislike it, the dmg it gives us is insane tho! But yea :D

Bin zwar erst lvl 62 aber die Opener sind bei mir schon richtig.
Thank you for this, been wondering what secondary stat to go for and every guide I found has been different.
What weapon and shield is he using for glamour ?
Thank you for your tips! And btw where did you get your weapons?
Huh, I always though that DH was best for PLD (maybe that was in SB?). Upon looking it up a little bit, it seems I was out of the loop!

None of the races offer any real change that can be traced long term. Your gear will set the stage for your end game.

Very useful. So is the priority Crit > Direct Hit > Determination? Is SkS? Skill Speed?
Yes, but try to reach 900 SkS first

wow where did u get that cool glam!
What Weapon skins are you using in this video at 1:20? Thank you for the guide
Lol, you have the Saradomin Godsword above melee rotation. LOL
Notice the dead healer during the boss fight, who needs a healer if you are paladin
it's funny how high a pld can heal with requiscat clemency, you can out heal a fucking whm with ease (granted yours costs more MP)
