In this video, I walk you through all of the spells and abilities that the Arcanist, and later the Summoner of Endwalker, learns in the first fifty levels of the game. I explain and show examples for every action, and elaborate on when and where to use what, so you can safely approach the contents of the game. If you find things are going a bit fast, or maybe a bit slow, I do recommend pausing or skipping ahhead.
If you have any questions, or thoughts, you are very welcome to leave a comment down below, and I will get back to you as soon as I am able!

new to the game, thanks for the guide
Dude thank you for the guide!
Good guide, I appreciate the information.
Thanks for the guide
Just work on that audio spikes, every S hurts, maybe putting foam in your mic could work, but any audio software could also do it, putting a compressor, gate, eq preamp or wave eq.
Thank you so much for the guide! I picked up summoner very recently and was hoping to find an updated guide for lower levels rather than what I was seeing for 80/90. this helped a lot!!
Thanks used this to get another opinion. I find smn is alot more intuitive after 58 when you get dreadwyrm trance with minimal downtime. Before this you have to be alot more Conservative at times.
really appreciate this ! i waited to start smn until the changes & its hard to find a guide for lower levels.
I very much appreciate this. I main scholar and have it maxed out, so when I heard we were getting a Summoner rework I decided to finally try the other half of the job, but had no idea what I was doing. And all the other guides are either outdates (Don't know how much early stuff changed) or for 80-90 rotations. Nothing for the basics! Thank you so much!
This guy must might as well be in Chinese
You talk like everybody playing this class should know what you're talking about
You talk about spells but it's taking too long to figure out which spell just showed up on the toolbar and what you just clicked on
If you're new to the game and level one this is pointless
I thought summoner here is like d2 necromancer
I’m a new player, I’m only level 19, and I jumped back into the game today to see all the changes and immediately got intimidated lol. So this guide is a massive help, thank you very much for the information and tips on the rotations!
This video was just perfect to what I needed. I could only find high level guides but I'm still not even 60. I just wanted to learn how to play my job again since most of my hotbars got useless hahaha
Thank you sooo much for the guide! I came back after a year of not playing and was so lost, super helpful!
thank you so much! i was so lost when endwalker came out on my level 60 smn i never did any job quests for
This honestly really helped me, as I came back to summoner after Endwalker came out. Thank you!!
I started playing last year, Summoner main, but eventually stopped playing due to personal issues. I came back to the game yesterday and was so confused when half my abilities were greyed out! Finding a new explanation of the summoner rotation that wasn't outdated or for levels 80-90 was so difficult. Your video saved me hours of trying to relearn the job, so thank you!
I really appreciated this guide, I just started levelling Arcanist and I was caught by surprised about how much the mechanics are front-loaded. It was a bit intimidating at first (seeing a bunch of tutorial popups about a trance gauge and aether charges and whatnot). Turns out it's not that hard, they just dump it all on your lap in the first 20 levels or so, which might be overwhelming for a new player but it was a nice change of pace from Dragoon and White Mage haha.
Best guide i can find for lower lvls thank u soo much
