Your Main Class - Which is it and Why?

[UnstablePersonality]

Machinist cause I'm all about them ranged gun type classes.

I've mained so many different jobs...I started the game as a smn main because that's always the archetype I play (if available) in any mmo I play (or game for that matter)
Eventually took a break from that and mained bard for awhile before settling on monk, which I mained until ninja came out. Mained ninja for a while but I had been playing war on the side and I really loved it. After my static got past t9 we needed a tank so I decided to main war. Mained that up until HW launch, where I leveled SMN first, mained it but I quit a week or so after HW launched, came back and leveled war before decided I wanted to main ninja again (especially so after I heard they were fixing mudras) so I mained that until about a week ago where I decided to go back to my original love, smn.

Still maining smn. Probably going to truly stick with it this time. But between coming into HW late and switching jobs various times I'm really behind on gear.


So...smn

Dragoon... Because my cousin told me they were the best DPS in the game in 2.0 and I just really liked the play style.

Dark knight because I hate crappy and slow tanks and because it plays a lot like Dragoon. I probably play DRK more but I consider DRG my main. Just because I take the DRG into raid content but mostly do all my especially with DRK.

Recently picked up SMN and enjoying it. I've tried all the other classes and do not like them.

Dark Knight. I was a Death Knight in WoW, played a Death Knight since WotLK. Came here after 10 years in WoW- Pally tank before Death Knight. I became a Pally tank in FFXIV then they released Dark Knight. It's like WoW2 over here but with a better community, better expansions, and better developers.

Playing DRG really gave me a head start to being a better tank.

I feel I've mastered DRG so I'm working on building up my confidence soon to tank some high end stuff beyond Alex regular (Ravana, thordan)

I started as a Dragoon. I don't know why I fell in love with it, despite the fact that any boss that looked at you funny killed you, but I did, and even though I don't play it much anymore (trying to fix that) I still enjoy it a ton.

But, I'm a Warrior main now, and have been since Ramuh was new. I leveled it in 2.0 (I remember the "fun" it was trying to decide whether to hold onto stacks to keep heals up or burn them with Inner Beast for an instant heal. I am so glad that was changed) and while I didn't enjoy it as much as DRG, it grew on me over time. I can't remember the exact reason I chose to main WAR over WHM when I couldn't get any raid progression as a DRG, but I can't say I regret the decision. WAR is just too much fun to play, tanking or DPSing. And then Heavensward came out, and I got to 60...and loved it even more.

Long ago I took one of those 'What D&D archtype are you?' online quizzes and it said I was an elven Bard (with the impossible alignment of Lawful Neutral, google it). When I started XI I went the shortest elvaan I could manage and gunned for Bard. It... bit me in the butt as Bard in XI is strictly support making any kind of soloing neigh impossible unless I really overleveled it. XIV 1.0 started as a short wildwood elezen conjurer and once I could change class hopped over to archer then unlocked Bard (cause Bard needed conjurer then). Even picked a hairstyle similar to what I had in XI (long, dark). 2.0 I didn't change much though I did push the boob slider to 0 (if I wanted huge boobs I'd have played a duskwight, biggest boobs in 1.0). I do change my hairstyle from time to time as I like to have my character look like me, guess I'm vain like that.

Bard on Miqo and Ninja on Lala. Bard mainly because I didn't wanna main WHM anymore and back in RO my main was always a Minstrel/Clown. The Nin I just grew fond of~ Fast, fun and I think mini Ninja is cute XD (really starting to like MNK too, also an old main in RO)

Conjurer/White Mage since day 1.

ive been dps in every other mmo ive played and when SWTOR came out i played the Bounty Hunter/Mercenary class which is a healer. they use dual wield pistols to "shoot" green goo bullets at the target and heal them. thought it was brilliant, shooting your team members in the back to heal them lol, loved the class and healing in general. FF14 was my next mmo i played when it came out after SWTOR and picked Conjurer/White Mage since day 1 and never looked back

PLD mostly cause no matter the game I always seam to use a shield at some point if I can... even if I'm the lowest on the Tanking "totem poll" of power at lest I'm save in the knowladge that if u'r taking the mob from me then at lest its not going after the healers/DPS... unless u die later then well slag... also sucks I can't block magic with a shield like I did in Oblivion/Skyrim but meh I'll be fine I hope lol

Though grabbed MCH cause I love guns/ranged DMG (used BRD before 3.0), have WHM too cause friends said I'd be good with it & needed a Healer class to have the 3rd class type

Give me a healer/DPS hybrind that uses a tower shield & a gunsword & I think I might die from shear joy
