What's even the point of doing savage?

What's funny is that FFXIV actually has a bunch of jobs that can count as "replayability".

Actually, now that I think of it, the main reason why I feel like playing other jobs in FFXIV is so I can try clearing Savage with them. Kind of ironic. lol

Yeah in FFXIV I feel pretty free to play whatever I want without many downsides.
I play new Jobs in Savage too to learn and have fun, recently I've done a lot of tanking and it's a very new experience.

Raiding is fun, but the time you need to put on the game for learning and trying, and the weeks you need to way to at least buy a piece of piece is just ridiculous. It looks like they intentionaly put the 1 week clear only for people to continue paying for their sub, and it's a poor way od implementing endgame.

If you don't care for Savage or Ultimates then I wouldn't worry about gear rly, just do what you want and feel like in the game.
Gear doesn't rly matter outside of that.
