    What DPS class would you have picked in 2.0 if you knew future patch changes?

    Back in 2.0, classes were almost nothing like today. They've all had elements bolted on top at 60/70/80, many have been reworked, and the content available has improved dramatically.

    Given all of that, if you had to choose one DPS class to play exclusively for all prior patches and content up today which would you choose?

    Well I didn't know how the patches would go but I did pick one job to play almost exclusively and that is my BLM. I started in 2.4? I think, and did the trial they had at the time for the 7 days to level 20. I played most of the jobs in the 7 days and once I hit BLM, well thm, I never looked back. I don't regret anything lol

    My most played job since I started the game (a few months after ARR launched) has been DRG. It has always been fun for me, and that's all that really matters to me. Sometimes I go away from it for a bit because I need a change, but every time I come back it's like riding a bike...or fits like a glove...or whatever metaphor you want to attach to it.

    Dragoon because it consistently has evolved and gotten good skills. I started with Monk and still consider it my main but it feels like its the dev’s redheaded stepchild which they’ll repeatedly ignore in favor of the problems literally any other job has.

    Black Mage, Black Mage and Black Mage, obviously. Oh wait, guess what I picked in 2.0 and have been playing ever since?

    I knew that FFXIV was the game for me when I saw Yoshi-P playing

    Black Mage

    Sure, there are patches where some people complain that BLM has been "nerfed" or claim that some other jobs is "top dps" but I don't really care if that job isn't

    2.0 Thaumaturge was interesting for lv1-30 - I miss being able to cast Virus, Bio, Cure, Aero, Protect and Raise!

    I like helping people with their Job ideas, it's fun to help them visuallize and create the job they'd like to play most. Plus I make my own too, I'll post them eventually.
