      I've leveled every job to max, and DRK story was the best job story quest of them all. Definitely worth it! I am a bit sad they made role quests now instead of job quests. Feels less personal as it's not really too closely related to that specific job any longer.

    leveling everything makes you better at your main job/role as you learn the kits of other jobs and that way you understand what your party can do.
    I personally have no idea what I main anymore since it's fun to switch depending on content!

    • @ridoranalighthouse
      @ridoranalighthouse 9 днів тому +2

      honestly this!! the main reason i've got every job unlocked and leveled is to better understand how the game's encounter design expects all roles to handle things. and honestly, having been a healer main for endwalker has definitely made me a more considerate dps in dawntrail xD

    • @ulibarriL
      @ulibarriL 9 днів тому +2

      ehhhh, not really. It used to be that way, but this dev team went well out of its way to remove synergy between jobs and roles. Encounters and jobs are now designed in a way where you just need to focus on what you're doing. This is especially true for DPS jobs.
      However, it is still beneficial for healer mains to spend some time playing tanks and vice versa. But even this is getting worse every expansion as tanks continue to be granted more and more self-sustain.

    I was (still am) a healer main, and I ONLY had healing jobs unlocked until I was almost done with Shadowbringers and my friends told me to unlock other jobs. Since Summoner came free with Scholar as you noted, I only had to level a tank and a physical DPS (for Endwalker).
    I chose Gunbreaker as a tank because it started at the highest level, and I chose Machinist because I am a sucker for the steampunk aesthetic and MCH suited that.
    I made a LOT of jokes about how I was too American, because the two jobs I chose were GUN

    I stayed on Free trial for about 2 years, just daily rouletes then couple of dungeons then logout. I bought the full game back in 2022 then activated the keys on dec 2024 after I maxed every class available on free trial to LVL70 (except BLU DOH/DOL). Main reason why I unlocked every jobs is because of personal achievement. Seeing them all in LVL70 when I started playing SBH made me really happy and fulfilled, for a sprout who knows nothing about the game other than spamming dongeons I felt that I achieved something XD.
    I was a healer main, then I tried Tank then DPS.. I have couple of favorite classes and I don't know which to main honestly.. I'll decide once I'm done with MSQ and once feel I'm ready for harder contents.

    Interesting topic you bring here! I'm so glad to see we experience similar things in the game. I started with Tank as my main and i have played with all Tanks except Paladin then, Bard, Mch, Reaper, Ninja, Viper, Samurai, Dragoon, WHM. The reasons to unlock those were the job lore and second, the gameplay. After been playing with those, I realized that I feel really confident with Reaper for any kind of content. I know is the one of the easiest DPS but maybe this is the reason I clicked so well with it. Now, I would focus in one or two jobs with the goal of master them and then only then only try other jobs.

  • @jackripper_1
    @jackripper_1 9 днів тому +9

    I have always felt that I should level up a lot of jobs in order to have options available, but you made me think that I instead should focus on one or two jobs that I really like, so that I don't end up with a lot of jobs that I don't actually play.

      Do whatever you want!! Leveling jobs is a great way to learn about other jobs' toolkits, which can be good to know if you ever decide to become a raider. There are also some mounts that come from having all jobs lvled to 80 and also one for all jobs at 100.

    • @aquifer98
      @aquifer98 8 днів тому

      It especially helps playing all the healers and tanks! You then understand what your co-healer is doing and what your tank is doing (for example bloodwhetting on WAR)
      Nothing bothers me more than placing lily bell for example, and my sage co-healer spam’s their eukrasian diagnosis on top of it :c if the sage knew how whm worked they’d know to just dps and save their mana/healing spells for another aoe instead :p

    @razorxseraphim149 9 днів тому

    Back in the day you needed the secondary class to get your job class. That is why I had a bunch of them unlocked to begin with. To actually getting around to leveling them all though. It was the Amaro mount in ShadowBringers. When I learned that I could get my little paws on a fluffy dragon mount for getting all battle classes to 80, you better bet I did that as fast as I could. Then it just became a thing. Just finding myself unhappy if all classes weren't orange when I looked at my character, so now it has become a habit.

  • @ditzyhere3138
    @ditzyhere3138 9 днів тому

    I think playing other jobs began with, 'this piece of glam would look really good on x but I don't play/haven't unlocked it.' So the gear being locked to certain jobs works but I wish that after you've got it in the glam dresser, with one of the related jobs lvled, that you could put it on any job. Especially some of the doh/dol gear. Some really cute stuff just hanging out because I don't have the space to make seperate glams for crafting/gathering.

    Initially it was Gunbreaker for me since I like gunblades. Didn't know about Machinist since the free trial only went up to level 35 at the time so my friend had to show me everything.
    I was bored with Bard, he certainly saw that and realized it likely wouldn't make me buy the game so he mentioned the one thing I do like: Guns. The moment he asked if I wanted to see the gun class, I immediately perked up and went "you're an idiot for thinking to ask that. You already know the answer."
    Now whenever I'm asked why I play Machinist, my response is always "my friend, I'm a Southerner and an American. We're known for our love of guns, do the math"

  • @SageTigerStar
    @SageTigerStar 9 днів тому

    When I first joined the game, I used Arcanist because a friend told me it was similar to the pet job from another mmo, TERA, that I played before XIV. Upon getting into the game, I started seeing an issue pop up, that was...the roughly 45-minute DPS queue I had for basically all content at the time and that wasn't playing well with the small window of time I could play the game during the week. I noticed that it was almost always "Healer-in-need" so I decided to pick up Conjurer, and having never played healer in any game ever, I was pleasantly surprised at how much fun I was having in the role. I never picked up Summoner again because the rotation was a little too much for me to memorize, though I do play it often now. Once I got to Heavensward, I unlocked Astrologian because I wanted to try another healer and it was very flashy. It was tons of fun and I mained that all the way to the battle with Innocence. When I reached Innocence, a friend asked if i wanted to try another job, so I went with one I'd been eyeing, but never understood: Red Mage. Being a DPS-ing Healer/Rez-Engine brought about a new level of fun in the game for me, and I stuck with that job through the patch content and once Endwalker started, I went Dancer. Overall my experience trying out jobs has been pretty great, but I do have that little square of specific jobs I really enjoy coming back to a lot.

    • @SageTigerStar
      @SageTigerStar 9 днів тому

    DNC, I liked the Yokai weapon, and a lala crafter gave me the Thavnairian glam for free.
    RPR because I'm a DRG main, and wanted something to catch spillover exp (started playing in 6.58).

  • @ulibarriL
    @ulibarriL 9 днів тому

    I am also one of those players who does not level all jobs to max every expansion. However, I do level all jobs I do not max to the starting level for new jobs of the current expansion e.g. in EW, all jobs were leveled to at least 70.
    Something that is a little silly that I do while leveling is I make it like a competition where the jobs compete against each other. I put full effort into leveling them, which means I don't just take them through roulettes to level them asap. I actually map out their skills, craft their gear, choose glamours, make macros, learn their rotations, and throw them into the leveling dungeons of the respective expansion, and then also take them through the trials and raids once they hit the cap for that expansion. The job I like the most and the runner up win, and as a reward they get taken to max level to join the others to go into endgame content.
    IOW, for DT, all non-max jobs will be doing the ShB expansion and be leveled to 80. They will go into the ShB leveling dungeons, and do the level 80 trials and raids. Two jobs will be chosen to take to 100.
    MCH is one of those jobs I want to like. Unfortunately the constant double weaving and Wildfire mechanics drive me nuts. Some people like high APM jobs, I am not one of them.

    Bard is always one I dread. Couldn't even tell you why... just never has been the job for me. Also tend to delay leveling healing jobs, just because I'm bad at healing and don't want to deal with the stress. Mad respect to the excellent healers in this game because like you with black mage, you're doing something I can't do.

I picked up reaper because it was new but never got more then 5 levels before going nope do not like. Now a days I start a character as Arcanist it was my first and most loved job, as you pointed out 2 for 1 SMN/SCH, I choose 1 tank class, a physical range and physical melee. Then crafters and gatherers since I like to repair my own gear. Thank you again for another lovely video. ♥

    If it's not something I intend to use in content I don't want to be the tank for, my main, canon job on my main character is Warrior, I either play it for the story or because most of my characters are the try anything sort. Main main guy, I've unlocked everything but Pugilist from ARR, Samurai, Red and Blue Mages, Dark Knight, Astrologian, Machinist, Dancer, and Gunbreaker and will get the rest of them from the coming expansions when I meet the level requirements, but if they don't vibe with me, they're not going to vibe with him. My most used alt, a Viera, is a magic user first and foremost and her canon job is Scholar, so while it's in character for her to go through each and every class and job to learn, I don't think I'm going to do many melee jobs. Maybe one tank and I've already gotten Rogue to 30 for Ninja, so that's a melee DPS, but she is definitely going to go through all the magic classes.

    I only played White Mage for most of my time up until Endwalker when I finally leveled Paladin and Monk. Whitemage is just all I ever wanted to be and I still play it exclusively.
    (I now have Picto in that mix - and soon to be Bard/Summoner/Scholar) I'm going to live it to just those jobs though because I only got these jobs so I can fill in for roles to play with friends more often. I don't want to level all the jobs because to me I find that playing jobs I'm not modestly competent at is griefing. I'd rather be average at one or a few jobs than mediocre at all of them except for one.

    Personally I love all the combat jobs. the one thing I can't stand (And this might have something to do with not leveling them alongside the expansions) Is the crafters and gatherers. I unlocked them, forgot about them, then decided after Endwalker I'd be in my retirement arc and tried to level the gathers first. And hated it. IDK why, it just filled me with such boredom that if I didn't have UA-cam on my second monitor I'd probably have stopped after lvl 20.

    I would always open a job when I got bored in EW. But I never did DPS because I hated melee so much. I also hated Tank so much I would go out of my way to avoid trainers because I didn't want to get sucked in. I'm healer, WHM main! In DT because it's the most boring xpac to date, I opened and leveled everything. I love Heals and Ranged DPS. My DNC pulled me through Endwalker and Dawn Trail, because healing is hard when you're in less than max gear... But doing Shared FATEs butched me up. I have all jobs and trades to 100, BLU is 72 because I need a lot more spells. I got my first weapon coffer on my MCH and there is nothing more fun than running Juno using Flamethrower. My second one I used on my WAR. Oh, and I found I loved tanking so much. No real worries about standing in the shiny unless I'm low health and hey, I can fix that too!

    I unlocked all of them because I want to level all of them to max. I’ve only got 5 or 6 more jobs to get from 90 to 100.

  • @sunayocarissime5309

    I must be a fluke because I'm scared to death of healing. I've leveled every job to cap but mostly stick to DPS & Tank but I like to be prepared if it comes down to it. I'm terrified of screwing up as heals.😳😱
    As for gathering/crafting that's in my blood. Occasionally I'll do a full legendary node hunt to get mats that in turn I keep either for crafting or if I have surplus post on the market board for some extra gil and doubles as a good way to farm for gathering materia. As for crafting I HAVE TO HAVE ALL CRAFTING TO MAX. Reason is simple. I keep 2000+ dark matter 8 to repair my gear instead of splurging at a mender. Oddly enough that aspect in RL got me to be more self sufficient. When I noticed that I don't need to blow thousands of gil to repair all my jobs gear it also got me thinking, "why can't I do that in real life?" As result I pride myself on being a my own culinarian/fix-it-yourself type person instead of blowing a lot of money for somebody to fix everything. It also helps that I'm an incredible cook.😁

  • @Ryne91
    @Ryne91 8 днів тому

    I burned myself out to the point I dropped the game and deleted my character because I tried to level every job. I wanted the God of Magic/God of War titles. But I didn't enjoy playing the vast majority of them. In fact, I hated playing as Black Mage, Ninja, Sage, Astro, and Reaper so much that the thought of doing a single dungeon as one of them made me want to uninstall the game. That combined with the fact that my FC only ever did events on nights I worked despite how much work I did for them just killed my interest in the game.
    If I ever return to the game, I'm only going to let myself unlock a maximum of one job per role.

    kinda glad i started the game as a Thurmaturge/BLM cause it is more frustrating to deal with than most classes. i love it just cause i love magic classes in general, but not looking forward to leveling it again on an alt eventually 😂

    I am the same way. Honestly.... I just wanted to unlock everything. Although I would like to get everything to 30 one day, but I just don't care. For Bard, I unlocked Bard just for the instruments lol.... and since.... I've never played them LOL. I unlocked them... played them for like a day and never played again.

  • @darkwulf2k

    I level all the classes because i want the achievement, and what i find is amusing, is due to this last round of leveling, I have started to enjoy playing Machinist. There are also classes i like playin, i just do not cuz i bad at em lol.
    It's sad DT gets so much hate, because honestly, the dungeons overall have been some of the best if not best, esp the leveling ones. The raid series, story aside, has been the most fun I have had raiding, and imho one of the best tiers they have ever done. Great balance of bod checks vs DPS checks. FRU seems to be a hit. The chaotic I feel is to early to tell. The two EX fights i have done were fun. I even enjoyed the story so far overall, and unlike some, love wuk lamat. Though I agree she was a bit pushed to hard, and the pacing at times were whack, but still had a good time. :shrug:

  • @AgentPanda15

    I unlocked MCH cause I wanted to give my lalafell a gun and it was the only DPS classed I played for a long time. I have all jobs at 100 for my main now for the achievements! I made the painful decision to level them all up to 99 when DT launched to send as a joke to my boyfriend who was playing Runescape. "Look I got 99 in all skills!" So I didn't "finish" DT for like over a month to keep everything at 99. Was satisfying none the less. But don't ask me how to play any of them. I'm a WHM through and through.

  • @astrealove1
    @astrealove1 9 днів тому

    I have all jobs and crafters/gatherers at level 100. But I'm a Tank main, I don't play DPS or Healer at all except for certain situations.
    Sometimes I try other stuff just for the sake of it, but nah I'll always be a Tank main, and that's never gonna change.
    My main reason for unlocking all of them was to get the Amaro mount back in SHB, and then the Outrunner mount at level 100. However, I don't think it's actually worth it, levelling jobs for the sake of it isn't a good way to do it.

  • @Hgdrifter
    @Hgdrifter 9 днів тому

    Initially I unlocked jobs I wasn't going to play that much because of the job stories. But me being a completionist, as time went on I just wanted all of the jobs at 100. My least played jobs are probably monk, blm, and ninja. Just can't wrap my head around their rotations, more so with monk. I know how blm works on paper, but execution is a different story.

  • @tyler5013

    I remember just having started FF14 when I saw a video of Meoni showcasing his newest addition: the Amaro mount from ShB. And I loved that bird XD Then I heart I would have to level all jobs to 80 to get it (I started during 5.2). So, thats pretty much the reason I leveled all jobs: my Seto mount :) Later I found out, the job-related stories are really good, so I kept going for that. Sadly, role quests a crap, but hey, what can you do? Besides, Im not raiding anymore so Ive got time.

    I only unlocked Gunbreaker because I wanted all the 'tank X00 things on this job' achievements/titles/mounts. To this day, Gunbreaker is the one tank job I actually hate.
    Also, I am the complete opposite on Scholar, I only got it anywhere near 100 because Summoner was dragging it along. I am of the opinion Scholar is awful.

  • @TheForhekset
    @TheForhekset 9 днів тому

    I leveled every job to get the mounts linked to the avhievements. Before it was getting everything to 30 for the pvp. So I just need 2 more jobs leveled a bit to get seto at everything at 80, then to 100. I have all my tanks leveled pali was my last to level, and I leveled it before litterally because I didnt want to carry around more tank gear. So now my pali is just equiped with the Bis gear I have for Warrior and Gunbreakers my mains. I leveled Dark just because it looked cool, and I main tank so having a Dark is a nice option.

    • @Aitherea
