Most basic DPS: Advice

I love this thread, yeah I know it's aging.
Q-"Which is the easiest & very less button press DPS job there is?"
Forum Responses-- Dancer, Bard, Red Mage, Machinist, Summoner, Scholar, Black Mage, White Mage, Dragoon and Honorable mention Monk.
Majority votes...DANCER.

If I am correct that means only Ninja, Samurai, and Blue Mage are eliminated as possibilities.
And there are those who will tell you Blue Mage is not even a real job.

OP I hope that narrows it down for you. Good luck.

"The most complex, challenging and skillful job is the one I play, whatever I don't play is a baby job for babies."

Alternatively: "I've played my job and nothing else for 10 years it's so easy, anyone who thinks it's hard is just dumb lul."

Well, different people are going to have different opinions. The only suggestion I raised an eyebrow at was summoner.

I would not recommend that particular job to someone looking for something easy. It's a shame because arcanist is a fun starting class.

Funny, I've read every post and none of them say or imply that. Are you certain you posted in the correct thread?

Anyways, the easiest job with not that many buttons to press is dancer. Red mage is a close second.

'cuz their DPS capability has exactly 3 buttons to press

People choosing healers for the easy 3 button dps rotation explains why I get these wild healers who refuse to heal anything in dungeons. Like the dps aspect isnt even fun for a healer so why they cant stop to press medica or cure 2 or even a single regen astounds me. Clearly they are in it for the super chill dps rotation and don't mind constantly wiping.

Just be a dark knight. Pretty much a dps class that just happens to hold agro xD

Honestly I'd have recommended Monk because even though it has 2 combos, that's almost all it has aside from a few oGCDs and buffs.

As a monk main, I wouldn't recommend Monk to anybody who is trying to play the game for fun or try something new. The class has just been on a decline since HW.
