New? Got too many skills? Made the mistake of doing this job as the first healer you pick? Just hate reading? Try this guide out!
This guide seeks to teach new Sages how to Sage properly, without getting too deep into optimization. I’ll be showing off and explaining some openers but not delving too much deeper beyond that and general skill usage. Endgame is a long way away and there’s lots to learn along the way. Start slow and work your way up one skill at a time! Then, graduate to more advanced guides.

Keep going please… I'm on a leveling marathon and I really need your guides asap! Thanks for your amazing work!
This class hurts my head… So thank you for this!
Well done WeskAlber! 😀 May I suggest something for wall to wall pulls (although it might not be effective but it works for me) 🙂 So when the tank is about to pull: Dyskrasia > Eukrasian Diagnosis (break) > Dyskrasia > Eukrasian Diagnosis (break) > Dyskrasia > Eukrasian Diagnosis (break) > Dyskrasia > Eukrasian Diagnosis > immediately Toxikon > Soteria (the 4th eukrasian diagnosis breaks here) > Toxikon > Toxikon > Toxikon > Dyskrasia spam. The 4 toxicon spam is useful for healing the tank during the early portion of the pull so you and the tank are not overwhelmed. 🙂 Of course you may get a different result hehe. 😀 Great job as always!
Another great guide. I am going to definitely Sage on Kess, my alt. She is two levels away from Level 70 Summoner and not even finished with the main story in Heavensward. (I'm at the point we enter the Hinterlands.)
Thank you for all the amazing guides! It is probably a lot of work, but do you plan to update your other class guides with EndWalker information?
Thank you for the Guide as always. I think it bear mentioning though that Pneuma should not be used offensively since it only deals as much damage as Dosis III in single target.
An addendum for shields, sages shields always overwrite Scholar shields, even if the sages shield is weaker than the scholars.
Amazing content as always bud
It offended me, as a previous omni-80, to not have SGE to at least that level. This might keep me leveling it to cap. Haha! Thank you!
I like to rotate healing augmentations like Krasis and Physis II on different strategems, particularly I always make sure Haima and Panhaima during pulls are augmented by Krasis or Physis II's increased healing received buffs.
“Can I have a Cure?” “We don’t got cure is Pepsis okay”
Love healer openers lol
Thank you so, so much for uploading this. These guides make FF14 fun. You're a national treasure <3
thank you so much for this. Ive been messing with sage and your videos have helped me grasp classes in the past, so I'm hoping this does the same for me now. Great work.
i had to level sage to 90 without you wesk!
That makes it the first job I did without your help, and dang that was a bit scary, lol.
but still, i'm sure it's a ton of work to make these, and this is stilll pretty fast.
i really wish toxicon was better. i end a lot of fights with 3 stacks I couldn't figure out how to use, and get really excited when there's an opportunity to burn them, like when one mob somehow has way more health than theothers.
oh dang, i had no idea that it was kardia that was creating enmity before the tank could collect them. I was at a complete loss as to what I had done wrong.
You're doing every job 1-90 right? Do you think the jobs that haven't changed much won't take as long?
It’s very easy to quickly fall in love with Sage. It looks cool, feels great, and makes sense immediately. Nothing really feels tacked on or bloated about it. It was my second job to hit 90, would recommend.
Plus, Guns. 4 Guns.
Thx for your hard work.
Who is Anna Nidhogg btw?
Will the rest of job class guide will be like reaper and sage guide ? Or those legacy guide will be updated ?
shit guide, trash player
Is it ideal to stack holos and kerachole together in trash pulls regularly? Or should I use holos, let it run out, and then apply kerachole, or vice versa?
Great work as per usual. Now we need to start a petition to rename Emergency Tatics to Cokes to rival Pepsis.
great combo for big pulls: krasis, physis, kerachole, pan/haima. should be able to do it every pull. alternating panhaima and haima, and you have 15seconds of not caring if the tank uses mitigation pretty much. and when it all wears off you still have taurochole + druo + soteria for heals if anything is still alive. very comfy
OK, good to know I haven't been doing things completely wrong… Also, at least now I know how the skills are pronounced.
This came at the perfect time
Ssswwweeeettt!!!!
MORE!!!!!
Looked and asked around in the Balance; apparently Krasis and other healing action potency buffs work on Kardion which is kinda nuts.
sage and scholar comp goes really well, sage can also put out some beefy shields, but sad they cant spread and zoe doesnt make it crit, if you use physis,krasis,zoe,haima,euk diagnosis, and diagnosis crits, will get really juicy shield. Sage can give scholar 35% increased healing on a target, scholar can give his 35% to a target, and then scholar can give juicy af shield to everyone
Nice guide, but the way you pronounce the addersgall-spending ability names is like nails on a chalkboard to me 😛 I pronounce the -chole suffix as "ghoal"
I've been waiting for this. Love sage and thanks for the work. You're Black Mage guide helped me out a bunch through Shadowbringers.
Huh. Y'know, I've leveled Sage to 90 and been using it regularly in dungeons with friends, and I hadn't noticed at any point that Eukrasian Prognosis doesn't apply Differential on crits. I was just expecting it to work and figured I'd been really unlucky with crits.
Leaving Kardia on the tank is often a waste. If they're at full HP and a DPS isn't, you can swap it over and top them off. It costs nothing but an oGCD slot and 5 second cooldown.
Some really good insights in this video. Thanks so much!
I've almost got sage to 90 now, which is surprising as at first it just didn't click with me, and I went back to scholar. After I'd finished the MSQ I decided to give it another shot, and it has quickly become my main now.
Great video! One thing I wish it had though, was heal rotations how you do DPS openings. You mention a few times the order you use the skills in to optimize them, and I think it would be amazing if you had a graphic like you do for the DPS. I struggle to keep the names of the skills straight with Sage since they all sound so alike, and a picture graphic would really help me visualize it better.
