Power at a Price: In Bozja, the Essence of the Irregular gives tanks a massive boost to their damage output.Though rarely used, a few boss encounters require that the party use a Tank's Level 3 Limit Break in order to barely survive what would otherwise be a One-Hit Kill attack. Higher levels increase the damage reduction, up to eighty percent reduction at level 3. Limit Break: Those of Tanks reduce the damage taken by all party members for a short time.Immune to Flinching: "Arm's Length" negates the risk of being pushed away or sucked in, with the additional effect of inflicting Slow onto any attacking enemy.These abilities are all functionally identical to one another, but they're absolutely necessary for a Tank to fulfill their role properly. Gladiators/Paladins get "Iron Will", Marauders/Warriors get "Defiance", Gunbreakers get "Royal Guard", and Dark Knights get "Grit". Draw Aggro: The main gimmick of a Tank is a stance that massively increases the amount of enmity they generate, making the enemies focus on them as long as the Tank is dealing damage.Dark Knights get "Plunge", Gunbreakers get "Rough Divide", Warriors get "Onslaught", and Paladins get "Intervene". Deadly Lunge: At higher levels, Tanks get attacks where they lunge at their target from a distance.In PvP, "Aegis Boon" increases the party's defenses by 25% for ten seconds. Among their common actions, "Rampart" reduces 20% of damage taken for twenty seconds, while "Shield Wall" and "Stronghold" provide protection for the party (the former, 20% for ten seconds the latter, 40% for fifteen).
Damage Reduction: All Tank classes have various actions that reduce damage for themselves in a myriad of unique ways, as well as Limit Breaks that extend that protection to the party.Counter-Attack: One of their PvP-restricted abilities, "Retaliation," allows them to automatically counter any enemy attack.Color-Coded for Your Convenience: The Tank classes all have blue icons.Beehive Barrier: The shared "Stronghold" Limit Break surrounds party members in shields of this sort.It's better to leave the Limit Breaks to DPS players for their massive damage output, or the Healers for their party-wide instant-revive Level 3 Limit Breaks. In general though, it's very rare for Tanks to use a Limit Break unless the situation requires it, and Level 1 or 2 Limit Breaks from Tanks are almost unheard of. Job-specific Level 3 Limit Breaks are used in specific fights and situations, such as mechanics that require using Level 3 Limit Breaks from Tanks to avoid a Total Party Kill.
Awesome, but Impractical: Tank Limit Breaks greatly reduce damage taken for the entire party, but just for a few seconds.For this, it is likely the easiest and strongest. While the Red Mage does cover this, the Black Mage is a very similar job but with a dark twist and useful debuffs. The Red Mage is focused completely on dealing all the different elemental damage types. The Blue Mage is a limited job, meaning that it can't be used in all scenarios. This can be a difficult job to get the hang of for newer players but can be powerful if run properly. The Summoner is a strong magic-based job that covers the many different aspects of magic including healing, summoning, and siphoning. Top Magic DPS: The Black Mageįor Magic DPS, players have four choices to pick between that each has its own special twists. Players will have to get and complete the Savior of Skysteel quest that is given by Stephanivien in Ishgard. To gain access to the Machinist job, players will need to have previously reached level 50 with either the Disciple of War or a Magic job. This job deals with some of the heaviest damage along with increased critical damage. For the last option, players can select the Machinist. The Dancer is an interesting job, that deals a decent amount of damage alongside buffing the player with this job. This makes for a really good DPS character in general, but it isn't the best damage dealer of the Ranged DPS options. The Bard works much like a typical archer, dealing a great deal of bow and arrow-based damage.
Surprisingly, there is a small three jobs to select from in the Ranged DPS section. Then complete the Steps of Nald to specialize in the Monk job. After that, head to the Monk's Guild in Ul'dah. To become a Monk, players will need to have 30 levels in the Pugilist job.
