    YO I'm pretty sure anything you do in the game would be more fun when you win on the job you like playing the most, even if the content is a grind.

    This is true of course, but as far as i know this vid was made as proof that it can be done this way, not because its the jobs they enjoy playing the most. It can in fact be the opposite, maybe the guy playing pld hates it and would rather be war but is doing it for the vid.

    also ill note that this whole debate is cause be people inability to comprehend a joke

    Wait what? I don't care why they made the video. It proved it can be done with any job, and that means we can clear it with the jobs we enjoy playing. I don't understand why you brought up the reason they made the video like it contradicts what I said.... ._.?

    Reading this thread made a random thought come to me...

    With Content Finder, if it works similarly to WoW, we would queue up as a role: Tank, Healer, DPS. If a PLD can queue as tank, DRG/MNK as DPS, etc...Do you all think people would actually drop party and re-queue until they get the setup they want?

    It wouldn't be in their control, so maybe it will sort of force people to play all kinds of different party setups.

    edit - Lockout debuff for "traitors" who abandon the team, yes that will help... *evil laugh*

    A good number of people used to do that if the heroic instance was Heroic Halls of Reflection and we had a warrior tank. Reason being that HoR required CC and use of LoS to clear the waves of undead before the first two bosses, whereas a Paladin or Death Knight tank had plenty of AoE to make it not needed. With proper coaxing I used to be able to get people to stay, but yeah.

    Ideally, the content should be designed so that the average person would not throw a fit if your dungeon group turns out to be PLD, RNG, PUP, WHM for a four-man run. Which should also be able to clear the content with the same efficiency as WAR, BLM, RDM, WHM, which should perform similarly to PLD, SAM, THF, BLU (BLU being the healer in this comp) and so on.

    I'm hoping they reuse the pillar mechanic if they decide to bring in Shiva before 2.0. Then I can make the parallel with Sapphiron/Sindragosa. =P

    Yes, content finder definitely needs to have this.

    * The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line like good little casters.
    * Design ideas:
    Red Mage - COMPLETE (https://tinyurl.com/y6tsbnjh), Chemist - Second Pass (https://tinyurl.com/ssuog88), Thief - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/vdjpkoa), Rune Fencer - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/y3fomdp2)

    Does it matter? I find it highly improbable that a group assembled by a content finder would ever beat Garuda regardless of setup.

    Maybe I'll convince my LS to let me tank it as Paladin. Probably won't happen till the buffs in 1.22b though...
