    Jobs rank to use in solo rank match

    Rank:
    1- War (by far is the best job to play in solo match: high dps, good self healing, high hp. You alone can basic win a match.)
    2- Mnk (to good against sch and smn)
    3- Nin and Drg
    4- Pld (Really hard to kill so if you grab the coins high chance to win and stuns)
    5- Mch (is not ahead because ppl will focus on you most of the time)
    6- Smn (very useful against Ast in noc if ppl don't purify, but bad against monk)
    7- Ast (you can't kill but the insta shield help ppl stay alive for more time)
    8- Whm (Sleep is really good but the chance of someone hit is to high, good pvp skill)
    9- Bard (can interrupt casters)
    10- Blm (same as Whm, but they will focus on you)
    11- Sch and Drk (well sch with monk if he know how to play bye bye, Drk both other tanks is way more better)

    The reason I put in this way is because you are not playing with a premade or with voice comms. So is a rng group and you have a chance to play with who never pvp before. If you have any suggestions you can say.

    I can't speak much for WAR's that have been on my team because I didn't pay much attention to them, but as far as for the other team they have seemed pretty negligible (though maybe it's because I play melee dps and am left alone most times). Plds who use their utility moves to a good extent have made much more of an impact on both teams in games I've played.

    As for SCH, they do need some kind of rework. You don't even have to be a good MNK to shut them down if they're not too experienced, I just throw 1IP into my combos and it doesn't seem to matter much what else I do, that is enough.

    I agree with the rest though. MCH makes a great ranged since they can at least pump out a strong burst while running away with Rapid Fire. I've seen a few blms do solid, but the game as a whole doesn't seem to play up to their strengths really.

    The pvp war fell cleave can hit more than 4K plus some of their skill can crit with +1k. Most of the healers have less than 10k because they didn't use vit acc. I use than but is more hard to live stay alive from a double fell cleave from a war that kwon how to pvp than a lb.

    Putting SCH with DRK in the bottom of the classific... seems pretty strange to me.
    I agree that DRK seems to have hard time compared to other tanks, but SCH if your enemy is not a MNK is not that bad in my opinion, Lustrate and Indomitability are pretty good, also it help casters cause of shields.
    When I play BLM and I have a WHM I want to cry because hardly you will see a stoneskin on you.

    SCH will always lose to both WHM and AST if the teams are equal, even if the SCH is a better player. Scholar's sustain simply runs out faster.

    I'm actually using it and yes I'm having hard time but I always tought that it was for the skill cap that gradually rose in the arena matches, in the first match I had when I had "free" time I was casting miasma or Miasma II to focused target and it actually help DPS expecially against AST, Miasma + Virus seemed to help my party a lot :/

    But I'm really unable to use WHM, I'm still wondering how they can face the fact that any spit on you will interrupt you.
    My true concern about SCH are the MNK that even if I wait to use Aetherflow they can do a sustained damage too high on you and 3 stack won't be enough for you and your party :/

    Ok so I need a vedemecum about WHM mostly (cause actually I used astro and I understand his potential), SCH has a shield that make his HP larger, fairy can bring some heal and regen to "party", you as other healers have Surecast, Equanimity, Swiftcast and Blizzard II to help you to free cast and when you land an Adlo if you are not bursted you will be able to do it again, if you crit even a stoneskin + adlo.
    I'm not opposing to the majority of the forum, I just want to understand the discrepancy between WHM and Astro, cause actually I haven't seen a single Holy in all my matches and as SMN/BLM I have never received a fluid aura or Repose (as SCH I was reposed twice).
    (I did only solo que)
    Is Regen so powerful to allow WHM to run and waif for ticks?
    Because actually as SMN I was happy to see a WHM in the opponent party :/

    Well the easy healer class to play against a smn is whm, medica plus reagen make smn dots easy to play against. In the start they have my ds up so is not bad. Plus Sacred Prism is the best healer pvp skill. The way how sprint work, play as a sch is hard in long fight. I'm not saying that sch is bad, but your group is with random classes and with random players they can be good or bad. So sch is really bad in the most of cases. That's why i put in last place, when the fight is long is very hard to keep ppl alive.
