Best DD ?

Re: Best DD ?

Time Mage is the best DD EVAR!!!

Period. That's it, none other. Game over!

No reason to level anything else. TIM is all!

It's true. Time Mage can destroy the space-time continuum.

Re: Best DD ?

I am also a really mage style player so far. I have RDM and BLM lvled with WHM soon to be there. I decided that afterward, however long that takes, If I am still playing I will lvl DD jobs instead of yet another mage job. My choices are Ranger and Dark. Scholar might side track me though its such a fun job for a person that likes macros and casting.

Re: Best DD ?

This is a question that can't really be answered by someone else. The "best" DD in terms of fun is... well, whatever you find the most fun. Try lots of them. That said, there are questions you can ask yourself to help narrow the field: simple or complex? Damage over time or spike damage? Is being popular important? How about soloability? -- Pteryx

The answer to them all is "Yes" if you're a Time Mage.

Re: Best DD ?

Well fundamentally I know that when it comes to it I will have to decide what I like, luckily I have all 20 jobs open so the possiilites are endless. I am a mage at heart and I love playing my RDM, but now I wanna get in to handing out some frontline Butt Whoopins! I like the PLD AF gear but I REALLY like being able to swing a G Sword. I think I gonna try War out for a while and then maybe PLD or SAM. I like those Big weapons. SAM may prove to be a good choice since I am moving into cloth crafting at the same time. I lik playing BLU as well but like a DA I commited it to a static pty so It gets left to the wayside. DNC is intresting to me as I see a fellow LS mate just handing out MAssive DPS when we duo but not really sure I would be intrested in it. Anyways ty all for the post

Re: Best DD ?

Define "best DD"?

Best DPS: mnk
Zerg kings: kc drk, rng, mnk, war
TP king: sam
Most efficient DD: blm

Overall: Under the right circumstances...any job can shine and do crazy damage. Also note, all jobs come with draw backs that first need to be overcome (mnk=belt quests, drk=rather hard to obtain gear, blu=learn all spells, etc.).

Blm and war are probably the easiest out DD category for doing good damage. Like it's been stated...pick a DD based on your preferences.

On a sidenote: you can make pld/sam do respectable damage with g.swd but requires quite abit of work (algol, homam gear, g.swd merits, etc.). Also, non-xp wise, rdm/nin can dish out pretty good dps...but like pld/sam...requires quite abit of effort and work.
