Whats your personal favorite job?

Summoner. The idea of infecting an enemy with a magical virus, slowly whittling their life force from within and further exploiting said virus with spells that feed upon their effects is appealing in a way that might seem a touch worrying if thought upon for too long. Add in the ability to make manifest a giant F-off dragon and there you go.

I think red mage, dancer and samurai are the most fun jobs. All relatively new jobs. I think it's a sign that over time jobs just get unneeded complexity added to them. Too many buttons to push. Too many things to keep track of.

I liked Bard in ARR. Now Bard feels bloated. Bloodletter, empyreal arrow, sidewinder, pitch perfect, apex arrow. It's ridiculous how many different procs you have to keep track of. Along with your dots and your song timer. The job is a mess.

WHM, even when it can feel a bit too....kawaii for my taste at times, but it is what it is lol. DNC also quickly became my go-to DPS job, sorry RDM.

RDM was my main dps last expansion with WHM as healer. So far I'm really enjoying DNC tho, it might end up replacing RDM for me, depending how I feel about it when I get it all the way to 80.

RDM for life. Love playing a caster/melee hybrid. But dancer honestly makes me feel OP. Flinging Chakras from range, then charging in to do AOE, and singlehandedly wiping out packs of mobs while in groups. My dancer is still only level 61 but doing Final Steps of Faith has never been easier. I was literally jumping around behind the raid lighting up Nidhogg laughing in real life. It was so much fun.

This could honestly be because I'm doing HW content and by the time I get to ShB content it will feel much more balanced. But holy crap, the HW stuff is a total breeze.

Samurai and Machinist

Blackmage. Always loved the idea of mages and magic so it keeps pulling me back. Though I am still working on mastering the rotation and timings. I have been wanting to main it to a pro status for years but keep getting discouraged when I screw up in group content. Though I know not a good indicator, was nice seeing my threat at a 2 pretty much the whole fight with Titania Normal.

Explosions

I'm really enjoying Gunbreaker, but also White Mage and Black Mage this time around. I enjoyed Black Mage a lot in Stormblood, but White Mage was missing something to work towards, and the lilies make the job really engaging to be honest.

I have been loyal to WHM and PLD since 2.0. Those are the only two jobs I focus on first before any else.
