From SCH to AST, and boy....was that a mistake, now leveling RDM and having a good time with it. Planning to main it. If not, BRD will be my last attempt at this.

Dps: went from MNK to MCH. I liked sb MNK but shb feels bad. MCH feels like i have my own phases haha
Tank: WAR to GNB. I played WAR because the playstyle was fun, but i dont like the aesthetic. GNB is fun and i like how it looks
Healer: AST to not healing. AST needs help..
I have an identity crisis...
On DPS my main has been NIN for the longest time.
Right now Im inclined to SAM my way through (unless NIN gets fixed)
On Tanks, from DRK to GNB, I pick a main tank every expansion and this one is GNB. But I like it too much, doubt I'll ever change it. (Unless SE proves otherwise)
I went from SAM to NIN lol. Sam is awesome though and is one of the few classes that got more interesting this time.I have an identity crisis...

In SB, the best answer I can give is that I was a Rdm and Smn main with Rdm being what I played the most. Now in Shb I'm a Dnc to the point that it is extremely hard for me to play anything else because I love dancer so much. Between it's more utility and supportive nature, the removal of tp so the only resource management is job specific stuff and the mobility of being a physical ranged over caster has my permanently hooked on not only dancer, but physical ranged jobs in general.



I've been considering changing from SMN to DRG, but mostly for balancing out my static a bit more. A part of me is still cautious that the current problems with SMN may persist for most of the expansion, but I have less misgivings than I did at the start of the expansion, and I do think there are ways to make the job more rewarding and flow better. Some thoughts are probably easily adjusted, others might be less likely to happen but would still be nice. Once I finish leveling DRG and get some more practice with it, I'll decide which I would rather go with. I do find DRG to be far more straightforward, despite getting used to the melee mentality, but I have hope that SMN will get better by the time 5.1 drops too. The hardest part will be planning out which class to gear up for the upcoming Savage content, with the lockouts in place. SMN will probably have to remain the priority for now, but I don't want my DRG to fall too far behind either once I get that far, which shouldn't be too much longer now. But again, there will be crafted gear soon which is a viable option. Again, I'll wait until I have some experience with lv80 DRG before I make a choice, but at the very least I have my static's blessing either way.
My first job was a monk. My main job is a monk. My new job is... still a monk. I get some of the disappointment, but I don't have any complaints. Still fun for me to play as. Leveling other classes for fun and for the role quests, but I will still be a monk main.
I was a DRG MCH NIN user.
MCH feels..., well I don't really know if it feels 'better'. I was actually pretty happy with it outside of Overheat and Wildfire back in Stormblood. I feel like I need to put a lot of time into relearning MCH as I keep trying to go for my bullets(Also how do the 30-50 quest line handle that?). So until I get around to it, MCH gets dropped. I had been leveling BLM at the end of Stormblood so hopped on that for my ranged damage. I don't have the rotation down but it feels pretty good thus far.
NIN..., probably dropped till I see some buffs. Trick Attack alone is not enough to be behind everyone else and I don't think that will change when I get Bushin. Everything takes so long to die in Trusts and solo play I can only picture it in human parties.
DRG not dropped. I'll probably pick my jumpy boy back up again. But ARR, Heavensward, and Stormblood as my main? I need something new.
Thus I switched to SAM who I was also leveling at the end of Stormblood. Also feels pretty good and being able to crank out 3 30k+ hits in a row feels pretty good when everything is ready to go.
That's for my DPS. I won't be long but;
DRK - Dropped for anything else. Might be better but doesn't feel as fun anymore. Looking into WAR till the balance patch then maybe gunbreaker.
WHM - *sips tea* ....oh. Right. Well not going anywhere. Go on shoo. Shoo. *Sips tea*
ARR: Bard
HW: Machinist
SB: Red Mage
SBh: Red Mage
No change since StormBlood.
