Easiest class?

[Hazama999]

I would honestly say dancer.
It has those burst-y phases to it where you might find yourself pressing a lot of buttons but other than that, it's a pretty easygoing job.
En avant is what makes it for me. Just really fun to dash about.

It shows you the basic rotation there. For example, here's a screenshot from the samurai guide.



edit: here's the machinist basic combo (obviously there's situational skills and other attack buttons but you said you're fine with situational skills)

I just want to press 3 buttons.

Why do you just want to press three buttons? You're not going to find a three button class in FFXIV.

However, there are plenty of easy jobs to play. Samurai, red mage, and dancer immediately come to mind.

Because I want to be able to take in the fight, enjoy the view, etc. Constantly looking at my button bar for combo signals and such is like playing a dance simulator. Or playing an instrument.

I completely understand. I also get overwhelmed when my job is too complex and there's too much going on in an instance/raid.

If you look through the whole thread you'll see there is a consensus among players on which classes are the easiest to play. Good luck!

That's an odd way of saying "I don't want to pull my weight."

That's not what they are saying at all.

Me at work tomorrow:
"I want to be able to take in the work environment, enjoy the view, etc. Constantly looking at my computer for emails and such is like playing a dance simulator. Or playing an instrument."

Wish me luck!

lol wut.

honestly nothing wrong in trying to reduce button bloat. I wish they did the same thing as the PvP combo sequence into one button. Its win for everyone honestly.
