Thread: Did you switch jobs in endwalker?, from what to what and why

[Tsumdere]

I was SAM/MCH/GNB in ShB. I did SAM/MCH/RPR beginning of EW. I got a pretty bad left hand injury around DSR which prevented me from playing MCH comfortably, so I swapped to DNC. By April 2023 my hand injury got to the point that I started playing SMN and WHM exclusively since I can play both of those with just my right hand.

Just been keeping those two jobs as my go-to that way the healing process isn't interrupted. Getting better though! Have improved from being unable to play MCH for more than 10 minutes without horrible pain to around 2 hours.

I main Mch and didnt really swap out of it, but I did open up to playing other jobs cause mch can get a bit repetitive. I also tend to compartmentalize a bit. Like I have my Main, then I have my alt main and then I have a main for each role; tank, healz, melee, rphys and magical. My melee main switched from dragoon to mnk just because i enjoyed leveling it, i think Whm is gonna take my ast place as heals, which i havent touched since they removed the sects other than to level it. Im leveling pally now and wondering if it will replace gnb for me or not.

I mained SMN from my beginnings as a baby sprout up to Endwalker's launch. Trying the rework for the 6.0 MSQ was an awful experience.

I switched to SCH as the only remaining job with an actual pet, with sides of RDM and BLM if I want to play a caster for once. It would still feel wrong for me to step into raid regularly without having an actual, functional pet.

I wish you a swift recovery.

I switched to Sage and Reaper. I use Sage for soloing duties.

WHM > SGE - I used to be a SCH since 2.0 but fell out of love with it. AST didn't make the cut for me so I defaulted to WHM for a while. Switched to SGE during Endwalker and been pretty much only playing that since then.
PLD > WAR - Also had PLD as my main tank role since 2.0 but I also fell out of love with it. I find WAR more fun.

Mained Sam in shb, swapped to rpr in ew and I am currently feeling a bit of buyers remorse. While I love playing rpr at 90, it really sucks sub-90 and the level of suck just goes up the farther you get from 90. I'm hoping the drg remake feels great at a larger level range so I can switch to that, get access to a bunch of glowy spears, and keep access to maiming since it's got the most glams I like.

I used to main MCH since HW. While I loved that job, I was really annoyed by the direction it took during ShB, the absence of changes in EW and don't like other ranged, so I swapped to GNB.

While my main was GNB for the whole expansion...
6.05 I went from GNB to DRK because it was our first savage loot. Since DRK was so valuable and had a slight rework, I kept playing DRK for DSR.
6.2, I went back to GNB, the QOLs were very enjoyable.
6.5 after my group savage prog as GNB, I went helping a more casual group of friend to prog the savage tier. The role was flex DPS so I initially tried to help as MCH but I couldn't stick with the job anymore so I went RPR for this last bit of raiding for the expansion.

used to play Summoner pre rework along with playing BRD, PLD and GNB,

about a month after levelling it to 90 post rework I more or less dropped it entirely as it was just boring to play.
did also drop BRD for a time due to them removing all DoT interactions and nerfing mages to the ground, but I cooled off from it so now for phys ranged I play BRD/MCH.

this expansion I wanted to play a little more melee DPS so I generally settled on having preference towards NIN after playing it and experimenting with MNK, SAM and DRG (even clearing Abyssos savage on DRG)

nowadays I settled to mainly playing PLD, GNB, NIN, BRD, MCH most of the time. but I still dabble with the other classes based on moods.

I stuck with SMN for another expansion. I tried leveling RDM after SMN in 4.0, and really liked it but got bored.

That being said, I’m really bored with SMN after the rework. I’m glad it’s no longer the poison mage, but the rotation is too simple.

We’ll see how I feel about picto after the media tour. Leaning towards that.
