    here would be the choice for each role in the game in my opinion:

    Tank: Warrior
    Healer: White Mage
    Melee: Reaper
    Phys Ranged: Dancer
    Caster: Summoner

    Summoner static? Apart ruby (and slipstream if you don’t swiftcast it) summoner is a rather mobile job.

    I think some people need to remember that some of the jobs they have recommended as good beginner jobs are not actually available to beginners.

    Summoner by a country mile, I’d argue SCH has a better DPS playstyle, and SCH from 4.0 can easily top SMN like a overeager Grindr associate

    I’m autistic with some slight Asperger’s, and I main Ninja. Lol. I am good with all jobs as I have gotten them all (except Blue Mage) to just about Lv80. I don’t think there is any job play style that is hard for me. Sometimes healing can be tricky but I’m pretty good with it.

    If you guys want to make fun of me, I use the same keybinds and keyboard layout as FFXI does on the PC. I use the numeric keypad to my around and everything. No controller. I have done some Savage content but no Ultimates yet.

    yeah, I'm autistic too. And loooove Dancer.

    Most playstyles for me, are intolerable and anxiety inducing though.

    So, I've met this girl with "x" on a dating app, yada yada, her first character was a Paly, but she kept saying how it was too hard and wanted to switch classes, so I told her to go to Dancer such I personally found it to be the easiest class in the game. However, she complains the Steps of Dancer is too hard, so I'm wondering what is the best class for her?

    Note: I wasn't pressuring her to play FFXIV, she already had an account and kept saying she wanted to play with me when she saw my Christmas photos in messenger and on my profile. But have been recently having issues with class difficulty.

    What do you suggest she should play? Help?
    My g.f has learning issues and deals with lupus which gives her a whole host of other issues like iron deficiency and so on. Everybody says summoner but I'll say it depends on your girlfriend my girlfriend tried it and though she loves carbuncle but struggles with positioning and able to cast effectively. She swapped to dancer and machinist and like both exponentially more because she could run around willy nilly as she says and do damage still. In the end it's going to depend on her and what she likes and can understand

    If you want to cheese a rotation and still perform better than most players, Monk.

    Dragon kick cheese rotation is not only a meme, but funnily enough it is viable enough to out-DPS most monk players.

    It requires 3 GCD's and a bunch of offglobal GCD's and a minor understanding of how the monk builds their job gauge.


    (OCGDS IN BOLD)
    Prepull:
    Formless Fist
    Meditation

    Pull:
    Twin Snakes, Brotherhood, Riddle of fire
    Demolish(Rear), Perfect Balance, Riddle of Wind
    Dragon Kick
    Dragon Kick
    Dragon Kick
    Elixir Field, Perfect Balance
    Twin Snakes
    Demolish
    Dragon Kick
    Rising Pheonix

    Then just continue refreshing twin snakes and demolish every 15 seconds and spamming dragon kick inbetween.

    Every third Chakra sigil will be a Phantom Rush.

    I meant comparatively to melee it is "more*" static. But it's a nice choice exactly because it's not like black mage in this matter.
