    Oh I'm sure I'm equally terrible with all of them.

    I can't tank or heal. To nerve wrecking to play as those. But, I feel right at home DPSing. Be on my main monk, ninja or spell slinging on my black mage or summoner. Oddly I tend to off heal more when I'm playing summoner or resurrection the party....sometimes even the healers. lol

    Caster DPS is my bane. After awhile I start to zone out on BLM, I haven't done SMN at high level yet so not sure there. Although even BRD seems to keep me more interested; since I'm keeping situation awareness for MP/TP on songs or even just placing flaming arrow is something different from rotation spam.

    This. I can keep up Greased Lightning stacks and Dragoon buffs/debuffs without too much struggle, but put me behind a BLM or SMN and I just fail miserably. I inevitably press the wrong button, screw up the BLM rotation, manage the pet poorly, etc. etc. I am the worst caster ever.

    Ironically, I am a really good WHM and a pretty decent SCH. XD

    I don't like to heal. I have bad experiences with it in other games where it was unfun for me. I know it's much different here, but I still don't like it after trying it. I'm not really a fan of doing a role where the focus is to sustain the party, because I prefer the option of personally excelling. I like the idea of my own accomplishments bringing things over the top, and healing generally relies on making sure everyone else does that. Unless you, y'know, spam holy on trash hnnngh

    It's also why I like crafting. It's a simple, personal thing to strive to be the best at.

    I can do it all, but really don't care for FFXIV tanks :/ Sure I can do it just fine, I just don't like them. Well at least the current ones. I do want to test out drk

    And before anyone responds (...but you don't have tanks past such and such level, I play *8* characters and 2 of them are main tanks. One War main, 1 PLD main)

    White Mage, Bard, Dragoon, Monk, Ninja, and Black Mage. I have them to 50, but don't play them. Best roles, in order of bestest to best, Paladin, Warrior, Scholar, Summoner, the only 4 jobs I play regularly. Adding Dark Knight to the list in less than a week.

    SMN. I'm bad at casters in general since I don't like committing myself to one spot for longer than a few seconds. DoT management trips me up. Add in managing a pet on top of all that and I'm just a mess.

    Also, I leveled SCH first so my SMN is at 50 without me knowing what to do with it after level 30. :/

    I'm turrible at tanking and healing. And while I'm not awful with Bard and Ninja, I just have no fondness for either of the jobs.

    (I think the reason I dislike Bard is because I've mained a Hunter in WoW for 7 years.)

    I LIKE the fence. I get 2 groups to laugh at then.

    I'm not very good with DPS, myself. With healing and tanking, you have clear, obvious goals: Don't let people die. If everyone lives, and if you aren't struggling to make that happen, then you're doing well. DPS is another story - you can *always* squeeze another few points out of your rotation, and, to do your best, you need hard math and razor concentration. You're always racing, always rushing, always striving for perfect, unbroken efficiency.

    Frankly, it's worlds more stressful to me to juggle numbers and formulas than it is to juggle health or aggro bars, and stress breeds ineffectiveness. XD
