  1. That's the great thing about having a game with this much voice acting, sometimes the NPCs will give you the proper pronunciation of jobs! Careful though, I've also heard some words be mispronounced horribly at times.

    Good overview though. I like how you're not making these lengthy tier videos every few weeks but just go over what each job brings to the table without going into min-max judgments.

  2. I pronounce Astrologian the same way! I'm still levelling my first healer (WHM), which I love, but Sage looks exciting to play so I'll be levelling it next I think. Your Practical Healing guide for WHM was super helpful when I was overcoming my healer anxiety 🙂

  3. I'm really hoping AST is in its usual state of being a mess at expansion launch and eventually gets patched into a good form again. New spells are fun and its got potential but its a freaking mess of a job at 90. Too many things to do and nothing really fits with one another. I'm a AST main playing only Sage. I actually just leveled my WHM up because I really dislike how chaotic AST rotation has been updated in the latest expansion. Hoping for some fixes!

  4. SCH is my favorite by far right now followed by AST. SGE is fun to play and can be strong but I leveled all my healers first and using DF to level DPS and tanks is kinda making me hate SGE because it's very sink or swim and so many SGE players right now only sink, let there be more than 3 adds or someone gets hit with a mechanic and it's a wipe so often I want to cry if I'm not on SMN or RDM. WHM is the weakest though for sure right now, perfectly usable but doesn't really stand out for anything right now.

  5. I know its a small pet peeve of mine but scholar and sage are actually barrier healers not shield healers. The strongest part of both of them is the mitigation both of them can bring and while the shields are nice, the GCD shields should be avoided whenever possible.

  6. Astro main for life <3 I love how busy it is, and it's so much fun being a support that buffs the team as well. I have only played Sage for a little bit but I really need to get back on it and try again. I'm still fairly new to FFXIV (started in July) so I'm still learning a lot and I'm not sure I 100% understand how to play it. But that's okay – practice, practice 🙂

  7. Sage is very similar to scholar in that you shield most of the damage instead of actually healing it and let your dps top people off along with cooldowns rather than using gcd heals. Its rewarding if you are an experienced player who knows how to fully mitigate pulls so you can have full uptime AoE dps while the tank is pulling wall to wall. Not everyone presses their buttons at a high level effectively so that is where they probably struggle. That and some healers don't dps a lot either.

  8. Technical aside, your Ps seem to pop a bit on the recording. Not sure if the mic could use a filter or something to balance the audio, but you may want to look into that. Otherwise I have no issues with it, as you're very clear with what you say and bring your points across well.

    I've yet to pick up Sage, but I have gotten White Mage to 90. Maybe I'm a bit of a smooth brain, but I really love the simplicity of the job, and probably the aesthetics too. I also like how they separated the Lord and Lady cards from the rest, so I'll be looking forward to that on Astro. I've never considered myself a great Scholar, but shield healing has definitely helped create a part of my mind that prepares for damage rather than reacting to it all the time.

    Thanks for the rundown, I think I have a little better expectation of Sage now when running content.

  9. AST is not that prog friendly for savage tier, some might think AST is fun just because you can handle Ex Trials or dungeons, doesn't mean you can do well in Savage. The amount of planning and understanding required for an AST is way more than other 3 healers, don't simply dive into savage without really understand how AST changes in EW.

  10. Sage Main since Endwalker and it was tough at the beginning i even doubted myself after some KOs and wipes while tank pulled many mobs … but Sage is fun and as you said just need to understand that Sage is the green DPS that keeps team in great shape AND DPS. It’s almost like overhealing style. Just after i was happy to play with my ASTRO again but Sage is soooo funny to play i can’t get my hands out of it xD

  11. SCH, for internet with bad latency, SCH mobility is awesome.
    -no castime atk, so you can just move around doing mechanics while keep your damage.
    -fairy helps healing
    -no castime panic button to save tank, party or damage mitigation for party with aetherfflow, and you can have up to 9 ammo.
    -ease of use. I think helps healing anxiety.

    just got my sch to 61, an suddenly became my fave
