Hello there and welcome to another “So you picked” episode , this one is focusing on the Arcanist class, one of the caster DPS classes and the only Pet Class in the game, like the previous episodes we’re gonna be looking at the basic Toolkit you have at level 15, then heading into the field for solo combat then diving into a controlled group content. Hope it helps shed some light onto the basic workings of Arcanist and the Carby’s

I downloaded it today and chose Arcanist, great video to get me going! Liked and subscribed!
Very good beginner video! Most of the beginner guides over complicate the video, but this was everything I needed as a new player. Thanks!
Emerald makes my life so difficult, with his aoe attacks. He literally brings every monster to attacks me. It is so annoying.
I'm not too high level (15), but I found Bio and Miasma to be a bit lackluster, with how fast the mobs die anyway. Usually 2-3 hits. So if I waste my 2 hits just to cast the 2 DoT attacks, I still have to hit 2 or more times. If the fight was taking longer, it would make sense to me, plus I can't wait for that level 18 spell.
Thanks for this, this is my first mmo (I'm an ff fan who is trying to play all of them, but did xiv before xi) and other beginning guides go over what the spells do, but none of them really showed how to put them all together to create a battle "plan" while also showing how to dodge and weave while casting, etc. Especially at levels below, like 30, and while solo as opposed to as part of a party. I wish yours was the first video I came across instead of like the 5th or 6th. (So much time wasted before I got here, lol!) My only question would be how best to fight multiple targets solo when you don't have a tank drawing the enemies. I can handle fighting one or two, but have no idea how I'm supposed to fight more than that by myself. (The "Kobolds and Ingredients" quest is kicking my @$$ right now. And I have no idea if that's because I'm currently underleveled for the quest or if it's because I'm just really bad at the game.) A lot of the help videos just assume you already know how to play mmo's and just don't know this specific game. Meanwhile, I'm a (mostly turn-based) solo rpg player venturing into an mmo for the first time and feel a bit lost. Maybe should have done an easier hack and slash fighter for my first time instead of a caster, but ah well, I can learn to fight as soon as I get levelled a little more.
Just started this game and this helped so much! Other videos didn't explain enough about what summons to use and why I needed to keep using certain spells
This is my first mmo and it can be a bit overwhelming but I appreciate your arcanist guide. It’s definitely helped clearing some things up.
I do have one question in regards to your HUD. How do you keep track of your dots? I noticed that you don’t have the usual timers that pop up for me under the target bar. Are you just keeping a mental note of the dots you’ve applied?
Cool guide for the arcanist, thank you! I am curious also for the summoner, 3 more levels !!
Felt baited into this class I just assumed mage but its grown on me
10/10 GUIDE new player here and this helped me out tons! I subbed and liked the video. Thanks very much!
i feel like i do no damage man, i downloaded this ACT program to keep track of my dps and my tm8s dps, and i am the lowest or maybe 3rd in any dungeon, ive been doing what you said, is it normal to be like that at the begining? i am level 26 arcanist
