    There is not much in the way of "Outdated" skills, but there are indeed a few major changes. Keep this in mind when watching HW-era guides, such as:
    • Cross class skills are replaced with Role skills, eliminating the need of grinding certain classes to obtain a skill
    • Luminiferous Aether -> Lucid Dreaming role class skill
    • All other cross-class skills such as Protect, Swiftcast, Eye 4 Eye, are all in role skills.
    • New Job Gauge which will track everything related to cards.
    • Draw, Spread, Royal Road can be discarded at anytime.
    • One of the cards has changed. The Spear is now a critical hit up.
    • Nocturnal Sect has stronger shields, but weaker healing.
    • Combust II, Malefic II, and Malefic III (64) is now an upgrade to its predecessors. Just an upgrade of the former instead of a 2nd spell.
    • Synastry is now a self-tether that will heal yourself 40% of the healing done to the target. Largesse is what you want for 20% extra healing, which is a role skill.

    Now for the new skills in Stormblood:
    • Earthly Star (62) is your most important skill learned in Stormblood.
    • Earthly Star erects an AoE on your chosen point. It doesn't do anything at first, but will give a big burst of AoE heal and damage when detonated. Its potency is increased when it is kept for at least 10 seconds, and will detonate by itself at 20 seconds.
    • Minor Arcana (68) is a new skill that will convert a drawn card into Lord or Queen of Crowns by random. Lord gives you a burst DPS. Queen gives you a burst heal just like Essential Dignity.
    • Sleeve Draw (70) draws a set of cards for Draw, Spread, Royal Road, and Minor Arcana. Will not overwrite already drawn cards.
