After BLM and Dragoon what is the easiest class to play ?

[FoxyAreku]

Dragoon is easy? Since when?

Bard has always been the only dps that I consider 'easy', and even they got more difficult with the release of HW.

quick reload.... u can stack charges , and weave even more while u are using them.... MCH is waaaaaaay more mobile and with less casting than BRD.

heave movement phase? u can deal with that as MCH , BRD has no options other than turning off WM losing 30% dmg, outside Straight shot! procs , Sidewinder (1 min CD) ....bard cast everything , not counting BL because is OGCD skill...we even have to cast for 3s if we want to provide songs.

Anyway i think once u master the rotations every job is easy .... whats hard is doing the rotation while dealing with mechanics.

The cast time for songs is a pain, yes, I will give it that. Now, if you're only counting dealing with mechanics of certain fights then certainly MCH will have an edge on the cast times there, but then as BRD you're not supposed to be using WM when you're moving and while you lose 30% damage you make up for a portion of it by being able to attack faster (I know it's not a 1:1 recovery, but it's still not a total loss). WM was always meant to be played as a 'when you have the chance' mode. Now if you put BRD and MCH on dummies with no mechanics, it's harder to say which one will do better flat out... personally I've never made the comparison with equivalent gear, which is why I said I don't have the numbers, but to me they feel about even on most standard fights.

But yes, once again, any class you play to start off won't play well and mechanics will muddy the waters even more.

Play Miner, doesnt get any easier

BLM is only easy pre-Enochian/pre-60. Once you get your lvl 60 rotation figured out, you get to play a little game called "Beat the Enochian Clock" and another one of my favorites, "Don't Lose Enochian While Dodging Mechanics"... fun times.

Lol BLM easy?

After playing almost every dps job to 60, I can tell you it's one of the hardest if not the hardest at 60.

It's not anywhere close to the hardest at 60, by 50 most players will be in the "zone" mentally when doing rotations and weaving and fire iv bliz, the only time it becomes "hard" and it's due to the nature of both blm and brd now, is that moving and timing your moves between dodging and mechs CAN cut down on your dps, outside of this factor blm is hands down one of the easiest jobs to play with rotation.

Any range job that has to move will face this issue.

Nin is perhaps the easiest imo.

I thought this thread title was a joke, lol, the amount of QQing and people running to SMN after BLM was updated says otherwise for "easy" In fact, there you go, smn is probably the easiest job to play IMO, but unless you actually played BLM, you would understand it's no where near easy.

There will always be the try hard people who will say "lulz, none of the jobs are hard rofl" but they most likely don't do anything outside of Dailies.

[CGMidlander]

Monk is incredibly easy. lol
I don't know where the whole "monk is harder than most classes" idea came from. The way the job works makes it so it's actually hard to press the wrong buttons because many of your main moves can only be executed in the proper stance. (e.g. Twin Snakes, True Strike, Snap Punch, Demolish...etc.)

[NorthernLadMSP]

Black Mage is not easy if you're trying to be an awesome Black Mage and keep Enochian up at all times. Black Mage is only easy if you want to be sub-par at your job.

[AnaviAnael]

I wanna made a second new class. I don't wanna to be a BLM because I don't like it. It's too similar with the Mage from WoW that I doesn't liked too. I don't like BLM gears too.

I will continue with Dragoon as main, I just need another class to be my secondary one.
I don't have many time to play because I play other games.

And what class have a easiest rotation after dragoon and BLM ?







Happy new Year to all Hyureans midlanders chars !

Unless this is an alt, you don't even have BLM unlocked. The only mage job you've been playing is conjurer, which turns into white mage. If you want to play a healer, it's a good way to go. WHM isn't overly complex and puts out great burst heals.
