that is such a good point. it's honestly sad I forgot about her. I bet there is a whole backlog of iconic girlypops that have just been lost to time. ive played since arr and have such a bad memory 😆
Now THIS is the content we deserve. This is v v v important HELLO?!? Also the fact that the tier list isn’t S-D. Like the perfection jumped out. Black mage is totally girly pop for alt girlies. When they are fire IV-ing and their skirts blowing in the wind all drama. The way they don’t move for anyone. And black is the color of cvntress like It’s for the dolls. people just think it’s too scary to play when it’s not.
The only critique I have for this ranking is with mch placement. I mean, the skill animations have so many flashy jumping moves. AND the robot friend is Queen. For me, this job has so much potential to climb the ranks even to the limp wrist category.
Girly pop vibes aside, I LOVE your analysis of the jobs identity and how that appeals to players. BUT OMG HOW COULD YOU DO DRK SO DIRTY!? That is a limp wrist class if there ever was one. Maybe it's the class story that does it for me but I just love the whole rugged individualist, don't let the haters hold you down vibe of the class. It feels very resonant with LGBT culture in general because a lot of us don't have the support of our loved ones and are out doing it on our own to be true to our ownselves and that is what DRK is all about.
fr fr, also I feel like drk and rpr lean into their aesthetics so hard it becomes camp. they’re dripping w drama! (maybe I just don’t know the real meaning of girlypop?)
I play a super tall male Elezen but a lot of my glams tend to be rather androgynous. I utilize the 2B thigh high boots a LOT and I have managed to make my aiming classes very limp wrist due to Amon's hat. Let's be real, that feathery chapeau is big queen energy even on a guy.
You have such a good way of describing the roleplay reasons of why people like characters. I always found it hard to put into words. People never understood when I tell them how important class fantasy is to me liking a job/class. A certain aesthetic or a vibe will allow me to get over parts of gameplay I don't really enjoy and it's usually my number one reason I don't continue playing something.
Glad you put proper respect on Red Mage. Dandy-coded af I disagree on Samurai tho. You can play them stern, straight-laced, and traditional, but they're also the quintessential 'anime protagonist OC' mall-ninja in loud street fashion. 'Fashion influencer carrying a katana just because it looks cool' energy.
I’m so glad that White Mage, Astrologian, and Red Made made it to the upper tier girlypop categories. The tank in me is disappointed in Paladin, but I get it. I understand. 🤣
I worked so hard to find a SGE 'aesthetic' and I settled on Cowboy Doctor. Wake Doctor's Coat, big ol white cowboy hat, white denim, and Nabaath Pendulums that look like flintlock pistols. Girlypop? Not likely, but definitely not a basic Sage.
Dragoon was always my favorite job in FF right after Black Mage and it pisses me off that they do give it a lot of versatility aesthetics wise. Think Freya from FFIX. She was that girl. Also Aranea from XV
Not every single one of my mains being in limp wrist! 😂 Also I did play through the entirety of Dawntrail as picto it was great and I have like 3 glams solely for whm. Someone help whm gear is just too good not to use 😩. Wonderful video I’m very impressed at how well you described the jobs! 💖
As a RDM main, i can tell you red is better used as a highlight instead of your main colour. Your skills already have a lot of those tones, so use something to contrast wirh rhem and make those flashy poses pop.
Sage definitely has the potential to be THAT girl. It can really give that lab intp office siren-like realness, too bad there's not much to work with in the game to achieve that esthetic
As a straight cis man who mains a White Mage in a pastel pink robe, strappy sandals, and a floral crown, I am proud to own my place on this list. Actually, with the exception of Sage and Samurai, this could almost be a tier list of all my favourite jobs. Counterpoint on the Sage: Most of the glams are just the same things any healer can wear, the only exception is the weapon. Being a newer job, Sage has the smallest selection right now, but there are some really nice ones. You mentioned Isnae Phis (the pink fae wing looking one). There's also the Palaka Pendulums, basically green peacock feathers from Vanaspati. I forget the name, but there's another one that is just some nice little round orbs that kind of look like Christmas tree ornaments. They're simple but very pretty, and they dye really well. I hope Dawntrail will give us some more variety in Sage nouliths. There's a lot of untapped potential to this unique weapon type that the designers have yet to explore.
For the bard being brought down a teir thing and not knowing why some people play it despite not being 100% into the aesthetic: it's the only bow job so all of us folk that enjoy rhe whole archer/ranger/rugged survivalist thing are kind of funneled into an otherwise flamboyant job until they give us another bow job to go play with.
In the worlds of mother Willow: "YOU'RE A FUCKING STARRRRRR" Seriously. Thank you for making ACTUAL content and when I say content I mean serving cunt-ent. You rocked this. Subscribing!
I feel that mch has so much potential to do better, but there's just something holding it back. Like don't even get me started on the ugly toolbox mch always have to carry around. I would slay so much harder without it. Also thanks for the list! I love it and I love that all my mains are in limp wrist 💕
I think your rankings of WHM & BLM are kinda hilarious, because I tend to go goth for my WHM, and have been running an Ancient glamour since I completed the 6.0 MSQ, meanwhile up until I hit level 100 with it in DT, I have always had magical girl inspired BLM glamour (I main WHM/BLM), with one time in ARR, I got into a level 50 dungeon roulette with my then-current BLM glamour that had a white dyed bridesmaid dress, Garuda's staff, white tights & shoes & a gold tiara, and had the tank ask how we ended up with two WHM in the party when we loaded into the dungeon (It was Stone Vigil Hard). XD Of course, I've decided to take Emet-Selch's last request & run with it, so I basically have full Ascian/Ancient glamour for my 3 main classes & a few others, with each of my three main classes having weapons representing a different fallen Ancient friend (Augmented Kelesis for WHM, Rod of Light for BLM & Bastard Sword & Shield of Divine Light for PLD).
Not you clocking me. Most of my mains are in the top two categories xD I was super happy with the SMN and NIN ranking, I was scared you were gonna rank them lower. For HW I was known as the Pink NIN, I was that gurllll, but then NIN's rotation got too busy so I switched to RDM for two expansions before switching to SMN. I only ever play healer and tank in non-savage/extreme content and while I agree with this tier list, I will say though that my SGE is 100% girlypop. I went with a NieR aesthetic, and you can't tell me 2B doesn't slay. I do tend to switch between WHM and SGE though. Anyways, loved the video! 💛
@@_phaun Oh a tank girlie. Love that! I think the major issue with PLD is the shield. It's hard to make a good concept around that on top of what you already said in the video. That's why WAR is easier, you don't have to deal with a shield glam so you can easily execute a different concept, especially with the wide range of axes. There's plenty of swords too but again, shield forces it into a certain aesthetic.
just subbed !! i wanted to say MCH should be get off screen for the simple fact of that atrocious tool box that never changes color's or even desgin !! i feel like once that happens it would be girlypop cause then you could get..for starters like a gorgeous Ada wong look ( re4 orginal)
I personally think theres some great potential for viper. Its never going to be a cutesy vibe that works for it, but when i see viper Im already thinking of glamours close to Katarina from LoL, or an old favorite of mine ; Rogue from Untold legends Dark kingdom. Its an old PS3 release game that was kind of shoddy, but Rogue specifically had some cvnty animations and abilities as the game's designated femme fatale. I could only hope that once we get our hands on the class, we will find some more femme/acrobatic esc. fantasies.
Hilda could have been a Machinist icon, it's too bad she basically disappeared after Heavensward
that is such a good point. it's honestly sad I forgot about her. I bet there is a whole backlog of iconic girlypops that have just been lost to time. ive played since arr and have such a bad memory 😆
Doesn’t she show up for the 60-70 MCH questline?
It’s Ishgard-centric, yeah, but that’s still technically StB.
The way she dragged mch I have to LAUGH
not my ass not knowing what girlypop is outside of the name, but still watching cause I'm addicted to ff14 tierlists
Hahaha so true. I'm like this sounds vaguely familiar, fuck it im in.
Same. Plus it's super cool so see the different kinds of people that play this game.
Now THIS is the content we deserve. This is v v v important HELLO?!? Also the fact that the tier list isn’t S-D. Like the perfection jumped out. Black mage is totally girly pop for alt girlies.

it’s like you sensed i was having dinner and needed a return to slaydom 🤞🏼💞
hope the food is good!
Sage's whole purpose is to stand there, aggressively voguing, while the nouliths kill and/or heal everything. Absolutely limp wrist.
Coping by making tier lists is so valid tbh
just talking in circles about the same information everyone has until i can play the expac 😢
Gunbreakers CAN be girlypop; prime examples - Lightning ffxii, and ME! 💅🏻
I play a super tall male Elezen but a lot of my glams tend to be rather androgynous. I utilize the 2B thigh high boots a LOT and I have managed to make my aiming classes very limp wrist due to Amon's hat. Let's be real, that feathery chapeau is big queen energy even on a guy.

Wait..... What is GIrlypop?, Why am I Limp Wrist? How did I get here?
Finally a ffxiv job tier list I can fully get behind
Would LOVE to see a video or girlypop glamours :D
"(looks around)" is the best name for a tier I've ever seen.
Love your FFXIV content and so glad I found your channel!
The video just started and the editing already ateee
Pictomancer was definitely a very smart move on the team. They’re going to get a loooot of the girls in. Taste, truly
wait you are SUCH a vibe. Ending it off with dancer like that was hilarious
I NEED more content like this. Love it!!
100% agree with literally everything you said
Ugh, I love your youtube content
Thank you for giving me content i never knew i needed❤
I felt called out when Red Mage came up and then I felt VERY called out when Pictomancer came up.
This is the FF14 content i was missing
Clicked this knowing damcer would be at the top bc Duh!! I only got lvl 60 to get dancer 😂😂
This is such a creative idea for a ffxiv video, I clicked on it SO fast.
"Dancer walked so Pictomancer could run" on Limp Wrist tier, had me ROFL.... -true story!
Glad you put proper respect on Red Mage. Dandy-coded af
I disagree on Samurai tho. You can play them stern, straight-laced, and traditional, but they're also the quintessential 'anime protagonist OC' mall-ninja in loud street fashion. 'Fashion influencer carrying a katana just because it looks cool' energy.
I’m so glad that White Mage, Astrologian, and Red Made made it to the upper tier girlypop categories. The tank in me is disappointed in Paladin, but I get it. I understand. 🤣
My favorite Warrior glam of all time was a cat girl in the maid outfit wielding a giant glowing Red axe.
I worked so hard to find a SGE 'aesthetic' and I settled on Cowboy Doctor. Wake Doctor's Coat, big ol white cowboy hat, white denim, and Nabaath Pendulums that look like flintlock pistols. Girlypop? Not likely, but definitely not a basic Sage.
the editing in this is so fun i’m watching despite having maybe 3 hours on ff14
Dragoon was always my favorite job in FF right after Black Mage and it pisses me off that they do give it a lot of versatility aesthetics wise. Think Freya from FFIX. She was that girl. Also Aranea from XV
I'm a MCH main and I'm girlypop as they come *sobs*
Definitely agree with SGE 😭 so fun to play and I love the class lore but so hard to find glams unlike WHM and AST!
fastest sub of my life! this is the new ff standard 😤
not girlypop tho, but muscle mommy monk main
omg this is 100% the type of ffxiv content I needed 👏
AMAZING video I have no notes
Astro main and picto alt. Your 100% right i picked my main because "beautiful space magic" gameplay came after
Not every single one of my mains being in limp wrist! 😂 Also I did play through the entirety of Dawntrail as picto it was great and I have like 3 glams solely for whm. Someone help whm gear is just too good not to use 😩. Wonderful video I’m very impressed at how well you described the jobs! 💖
the tier list we didn't know we needed, but we did
holy shit i found a diamond by finding this channel :3
I feel like I learned something about my aesthetic since all of my main jobs are in Limp Wrist and I am very excited for Pictomancer.
You should see my MCH. Me and my flamethrower are 💅
As a RDM main, i can tell you red is better used as a highlight instead of your main colour. Your skills already have a lot of those tones, so use something to contrast wirh rhem and make those flashy poses pop.
dragoon is definitly limp wrist, rose pink armors that shows your entire stomach
Sage definitely has the potential to be THAT girl. It can really give that lab intp office siren-like realness, too bad there's not much to work with in the game to achieve that esthetic
Now THIS is an important tier list
This is THE tierlist
As a straight cis man who mains a White Mage in a pastel pink robe, strappy sandals, and a floral crown, I am proud to own my place on this list. Actually, with the exception of Sage and Samurai, this could almost be a tier list of all my favourite jobs.

the Sucker Punch Babydoll potential of SAM is not explored enough
For the bard being brought down a teir thing and not knowing why some people play it despite not being 100% into the aesthetic: it's the only bow job so all of us folk that enjoy rhe whole archer/ranger/rugged survivalist thing are kind of funneled into an otherwise flamboyant job until they give us another bow job to go play with.
i think the only things that can make almost anything girly pop are Moogle themed weapons or the titania crafted weapons, but that’s just me!
Summoner after Endwalker: peak girlypop
Summoner before endwalker: ally at best
In the worlds of mother Willow:
"YOU'RE A FUCKING STARRRRRR"
Seriously. Thank you for making ACTUAL content and when I say content I mean serving cunt-ent.
You rocked this. Subscribing!
Yess need more girlypop gaming content please bb
This is the ffxiv content I've been waiting for.
Dancer WALKED so Picto could RUN!!!!! SAY IT LOUDER
I feel that mch has so much potential to do better, but there's just something holding it back. Like don't even get me started on the ugly toolbox mch always have to carry around. I would slay so much harder without it.
Also thanks for the list! I love it and I love that all my mains are in limp wrist 💕
Not the Tyra Banks homophobia episode reference lmfao
Learning a lot about a world I never knew existed. I play red mage and yeah I guess I am a little fruity...
I'm so obsessed with they idea of a real serve in ff14.
Girlypop the house down
This video is gonna make me finally start playing 😭😭😭
I think your rankings of WHM & BLM are kinda hilarious, because I tend to go goth for my WHM, and have been running an Ancient glamour since I completed the 6.0 MSQ, meanwhile up until I hit level 100 with it in DT, I have always had magical girl inspired BLM glamour (I main WHM/BLM), with one time in ARR, I got into a level 50 dungeon roulette with my then-current BLM glamour that had a white dyed bridesmaid dress, Garuda's staff, white tights & shoes & a gold tiara, and had the tank ask how we ended up with two WHM in the party when we loaded into the dungeon (It was Stone Vigil Hard).

Omg i’m a new player and i just found this LMAO i love it!
My male Elf wants a word with you. He can demonstrate how girly pop a dark knight can be XD.
I made my viper after kaine from nier so that’s girly pop in my book 💋
yes im a ranged dps main and yes i feel called out 😳😳
justice for machinist though 😔✊
GNB is so masc4masc-coded imo.
gunbreaker has an up-to-date gym pic on scruff
gunbreaker keeps Dude Wipes in its backpack
gunbreaker thinks poppers decor is peak aesthetic
Pictomancers is for the art gays like me.
i'm PCT main and i love my girly and stylish outfits ❤️
but can i be girlypop as SAM? 😢
The answer is Dancer but let's view :-)
Not you clocking me. Most of my mains are in the top two categories xD I was super happy with the SMN and NIN ranking, I was scared you were gonna rank them lower. For HW I was known as the Pink NIN, I was that gurllll, but then NIN's rotation got too busy so I switched to RDM for two expansions before switching to SMN.

I went with a NieR aesthetic, and you can't tell me 2B doesn't slay. I do tend to switch between WHM and SGE though. Anyways, loved the video! 💛
lol! Im thinking of stepping into my PLD era for next expac just because i like doing jobs that feel less fashionable and seeing where I can take it
@@_phaun Oh a tank girlie. Love that! I think the major issue with PLD is the shield. It's hard to make a good concept around that on top of what you already said in the video. That's why WAR is easier, you don't have to deal with a shield glam so you can easily execute a different concept, especially with the wide range of axes.

Red Mage limp wrist let's gooooooo
Jrpg theater kids assemble
This is fierceeeee omg
i was waiting to hear dancer get her 10s :(
My poor cat boy dragoon wishing for more limp wrist potential 😫😫😫
“What is the most girlypop job and why is it dancer”. Fixed the title.
I subscribed!!🎉
Idk after that rework summoner feels flavourless it's not girlypopping for me
We need a girlypop tank. I wanna be a girlypop tank
Im a paladin. Im pretty butch with it tbh
But yeah the plate armor is pretty much all we get and it makes me sad
just subbed !! i wanted to say MCH should be get off screen for the simple fact of that atrocious tool box that never changes color's or even desgin !! i feel like once that happens it would be girlypop cause then you could get..for starters like a gorgeous Ada wong look ( re4 orginal)
bro made a tier list for how gay each job is...
just jumping to the end you will see that for gay dudes everything is gay, kinda narcissistic
"Girlypop"?
Def not reaper
I personally think theres some great potential for viper.
Its never going to be a cutesy vibe that works for it, but when i see viper Im already thinking of glamours close to Katarina from LoL, or an old favorite of mine ; Rogue from Untold legends Dark kingdom.
