[FFXIV] Complete SAGE Overview: An Analysis and Thoughts



This video took me days to figure out how to render because Adobe Premiere was giving me a bunch of issues so apologies if any effects look choppy.

Thanks for MrHappy, Spofie, Larryzaur and Frosty for letting me use some of their footage! You can check them out in the links below 😀

This video is my thoughts on the Sage job going into Endwalker, these changes are tentative and are subject to change, especially potencies so keep that in mind. We’ll have an updated video after the release of Endwalker when we have more hands on with the job.

  1. This is a bit late tbh, there’s much better videos and deeper analysis on videos that came out on the same day or the day after the embargo lifted. Don’t really see the point to this. It’s basically a copy and paste of other videos.

  2. That's a soft "G" in Excogitation, by the way. I pronounced it your way at first, too. It's another word for "to plan" or "to devise." For Nature's Minne, there's an "eh" sound at the end due to its roots in High German.

  3. In EW my team will be WAR/PLD SCH/SGE BRD/MNK
    Let me tell you we're gonna do so nasty critlo deploy there,
    if I havn't forgotten anything, we have 20%(war) 20%(brd) 20%(SGE) 10+10+20(sch) +10(mnk) so a grand total of 110% more healing received on the war…
    if i'm right the bonuses are multiplicative so 129% more heal… then we add the crit 244% more heal….
    I'm pretty sure we'll at least troll with a boosted WAR shield and PLD veil…

  4. i honestly don't understand what yoshi-p meant when he said healers who want a more involved dps gameplay should look towards sage. it looks virtually the same as white mage for single-targets, which is what the majority of raid content will be

  6. your videos have been increasing exponentially in quality and info myomyo! proud to see you growing even more 🙂 For sure will study this a lot to do pewpewpew in the raids.

  7. Part of me really wishes Toxicon potency was doubled making the barrier being popped net neutral in DPS… then again that would be pretty ridiculous if it worked that way being able to toss out big barrier heals without losing any DPS for it, and having the extra benefit of being instantcast making it very strong and really in certain situations making it a DPS gain if movement is involved.

  8. I'm sure SE will do their due diligence to balance the jobs either at release or, more likely, right before the first Savage Raid encounter. The biggest thing that stood out to me about Sage which I'm hoping that they fix by release is that Haima and Panhaima have the same potency for some reason. I personally feel like Haima's potency should be increased slightly to say 200 potency per shield and that Panhaima should stay as it is. This would bring it more in line with how other shield potency differences work. Otherwise, I'm REALLY looking forward to Sage as I'll be spending my first hours in Endwalker leveling it up so that I can take it and Summoner through the MSQ together.

  9. Sage looks really good. People will spend too much time going "oh but the meta comp" but I'd rather have a stellar WHM and SGE combo, than AST and SCH who aren't that great at it. Especially in this game, it doesn't take long to find WHM and SCH in top end speed clears.

    Sage just looks like a ton of fun, but their personal damage potential is really high as well. A good Sage might never have to stop hitting DPS, and even then their GCD barriers will be instant cast

  10. Thanks for the break-down! I wish I would understand SCH and SGE more. My co-healer is staying AST in EW so I kinda have to start looking at how shield healers work tho I feel I will struggle a lot. They feel and look complex

  11. I was disappointed to learn that your LL streams weren’t about healing during living liquid. Fortunately you’ve won me over with this amazing overview of the Sage’s kit. Outstanding work homie.

  12. At first I was looking forward to sage, but it's kit looks wonky the more I look into it. The lack of mobility and mp regeneration really worry me for its playability.

    The whole "heal by doing damage" sounds great in theory until you compare it to sch who gets passive healing no matter what you're doing, damage or otherwise.

  13. Do you know for sure if Zoe applies to Pneuma like you said? The clip you posted didn't show Zoe on cooldown, and an argument could be made either way. It sounds like no Media Tour people tested it since I couldn't get an answer in the AMA thread either.
