    Looking for a class with procs and without a set rotation! please help!

    So I have been looking through classes and I am not sure which I should play. I like the theme of Dragoon but it has a set rotation and that would get old. I have always liked classes with procs and rotations that are adaptive based on RNG.

    Likes -
    Procs
    RNG rotations
    Flashy animations
    Flashy armor

    Dislikes -
    Set rotations
    Maintaining multiple buffs/debuffs
    Most played classes

    Which classes are closest too what I am looking for? I would love some help so I can jump right into the game! =D Thanks!

    RDM comes to mind when it comes to a priority system rather than a "set rotation". Though it's one of the most played classes at the moment. I'm really enjoying the playstyle of the class.

    Red Mage and machinist have procs on their main damage skills.
    Bard has some procs too.

    Gonna argue BLM, but, you might struggle finding a class that doesn't juggle buffs/debuffs to some degree. Kinda part of the complexity of most of the classes.

    Why BLM? Ive noticed most have a debuff/buff to juggle but I just dont want to micromanage buffs/debuffs non stop.

    Brd and mch is probably your best bet, iam not sure about rdm because just like melee class it has boring rotation.

    All melee class in this game (rdm included) has "follow the trail" rotation set

    Rdm rotation is basically fill your gauge by switching between black magic and white magic until both gauge reach 80 then charge in do 1-2-3 melee combo, jump back and finisher, repeat until dead. There is nothing more thats pretty much what you will do with your rdm when you reach 70

    BRD is NOT what u want lol.

    Dislikes -
    Set rotations - every class has their own set rotation, so this is pretty much depend on you if u like brd rotation or not.
    Maintaining multiple buffs/debuffs - bard has A LOT of utilities
    Most played classes - bard is ONE of the most play class for dps class beside RDM/SAM"

    MCH would be the best for you because

    Likes -
    Procs - lol this class is master of proc rng
    RNG rotations - BIG check on this one
    Flashy animations - not as flashy as MAGICAL class but still pretty flashy once u hit to higher level
    Flashy armor - GLAMOUR is life.
    Set rotations - same reason as brd
    Maintaining multiple buffs/debuffs - compare to bard this class has less utility but more dmg wise
    Most played classes - this class has the LEAST player base.

    RDM fits your "rotational" and flashy desires well (very debonair job), but is very very popular being one of the new jobs right now.

    BRD and MCH would probably be the next closest thing. MCH is the least popular, and I would argue has fewer things to keep track of than BRD, but doesn't have very flashy armor unless you come up with some wacky glams of your own. BRD has some fancy exclusive gearsets, and has probably more RNG than MCH. MCH main combo is proc-based, but its RNG factor is exaggerated by players given the frequency at which you can use ammo, especially in 4.0
