“Jokingly teased part of spooky slice and ended up having to do an entire song with animation” [DOES IT AGAIN WITH DANCER DE FLAMENCO] *HOW MANY TIMES MUST WE TEACH YOU THIS LESSON OLD MAN?*
Don’t forget: it is your sacred duty as a Phys Ranged DPS to stand as far away from the healer as humanly possible for no reason. That way when they try to AoE heal, they will also have to give you your own separate special band-aid as they grumble and secretly wish they could reassemble drill your ass into oblivion. Bonus points if you’re so far away that the healer can’t even use any heals on you.
Don't forget how Dancer AOEs have four different patterns requiring you to move around like a maniac to hit everything during your combo. Point Blank circle, targeted circle, cone, and line. Can't wait for 7.0 to give us a donut AOE.
@@calebevans9562 As a black mage, I can say with confidence the response is: 'Okay, but how big is the Kaboom? Is it particularly, you know, earth shattering? How much BANG, exactly, are you getting for your buck?' Black Mages are here for one thing, and one thing only, and that thing is great balls of fire.
"endangered species" as a descriptor for dots is incredibly apt, especially since I really wouldn't be all that shocked if they took them away from BRD in 7.0
Its a shame cause i like dot classes I kinda liked seeing all the dots an allience raid boss had and thinking about the no good bad day they are having
@@treedude4246 Ideally they would put said dots on something like a Green Mage. Y'know, a Final Fantasy class that has traditionally had some sort of DoTs in their toolkit.

But I am also fairly traditionalist when it comes to Final Fantasy, so many wont agree with me. Don't get me wrong I love classes like the Reaper and Sage, but if Square is going to use iconic classes that have regularly appeared in previous titles the least they can do is make an actual effort to keep the theme of said class similar to previous titles.
@@solaris8260MNK has one, Demolish, which they can apply when in Coeurl stance. And WHM has Aero/Dia, which lasts 30 seconds so it should usually be up unless they really can't squeeze it in because everyone is standing in the fire. I haven't played every class yet so I'm sure there are others.
One thing I genuinely like about the Ranged DPS is that you feel like a dancer, engineer or bard in terms of pressing buttons. Bard like playing music, has a steady beat your cycle through like a time signature, with flashes of flair based on your procs. While dancer is like going full improvised dancer, going as the "passion" does, and follow the flow, rather then adhering to a ridged machine format like the Machinist does. Where every tool is made to be used at a specific time in a specific sequence (in a good way).
As a Dancer main, this is exactly how I feel, too. I feel like my fingers are dancing across the keyboard (Granted, I guess that's more about my keybindings, but still)
As someone who started and ended msq with archer/bard, I never thought of my rotation like a beat, but in retrospect, that is actually a great way to describe it!
I’ll never forget the Dancer job quest. Usually the job quests bored the hell out of me but I went through them just to get the job, but Dancer’s made me stop and enjoy every second of it
I especially loved the call back to FF9 with the dancer theme being the chocobo hot & cold theme. Drag forth the audience's deepest fears and regrets into a manifested mass and dance it to death!
Yeah, dancer does a good job of justifying itself. They are basically societal surgeons, and they learn how to fight because...well... just ask any sage. The tumors around here fight back when you try to cut them out.
Playing dancer really is just doing all the spinnies in the world and watching your new best friend and temporary life partner dps #1 do the thing you should be doing while you aggressively flip coins in the background hoping for those sweet sweet fourfolds. I love it so much.
“The gimmick of the ranged dps is that you don’t have to worry about any positionals or cast times and can run around like an indecisive artist in Hobby Lobby.” I did not come here to be called out in such personal and accurate detail. 😰 (JK, as a bard main I’m lmao at this. 😂Amazing job as always JoCat! ❤)
When he low key called them supports I laughed hard. Ranged used to be only bard and bard's LB used to be a healing one. The songs also used to buff your allies by far larger amounts. Hell the mage's ballad used to increase mana regen for the group.
Everything with Machinist was great, and Dancer was perfect with the musical interludes! Can't ever get enough of this, Jocat! And can't wait for you to do my main with Magical Ranged DPS!
As someone who started with archer, and beat endwalker with Bard, you were completely accurate in your description. Haven't played much Machinist in a bit, but that also sounded really accurate. We may not hit as hard as others, but we still get the job done. Great video as ever!
You know you now have to do a full version of that little Dancer ditty like you did for Spooky Slice, right? JK, love Dancer, favorite ranged class, super fun!
As someone with all regular classes at 90, the best way to level a class is to do your roulettes and do fates/ beast tribes while you wait on queues. That's honestly the long and short of it. Everything else is just how much time you're willing to put into it.
I am overjoyed to see the ranged dps get their time to shine. If I do nothing else, I'm going to make sure the party's foes hear some instruments of destruction, even if it's 'sailor moon theme set to gun'
As a bard main, much love for your ranged vid. You have mentioned that it’s hard work IIRC, so thank you for the effort and entertainment you continue to bring
I'm so happy to see another one of these! Hope ya doin' well and I know the Magic DPS will be just as funny! *I wonder if you'll even tackle Blue Mage*
this “guide” series actually got me to give the trial a shot a few days ago, so I’m glad it’s still going! I picked arcanist and will probably continue into summoner as I too am a pee-fearing coward. I shall now return to running errands for random strangers and spamming energy drain/fester at various low-level enemies, thank u jocat
Unlock scholar too, even if you don't plan to use it straight away Summoner and Scholar level up at the same time since they are linked to the same base class. So when you do decide to give support a go you will already have a leveled healer to try out.
@@Hammybread You don't have to actually have Scholar unlocked to get the extra levels, it'll be the same as your SMN level even if you only unlock it once you're 90
Joseph, a suggestion: For your Magic DPS video, PLEASE, pander to all the 8-Bit Theater fans and introduce Black Mage with the memorable line, "You are the Black Mage, you casts the spells that makes the peoples fall down!" You would have NO idea how ecstatic that would make so many of us!
not to get too of topic, but i back the aspca, peta is kind of the lunatic version of that, strident, fanatical and some of their policies are actively harmful to animals because of ideaology. you can love animals and still feel that peta does way more harm than good.
@@ryanweible9090 Yeah, I was just saying that PETA's crap isn't anything to laugh about in itself; sometimes not even going for strays, but kidnapping dogs out of people's yards that are chained up, and killing them, for one thing. So when I was calling myself an actual animal lover, I was overall saying in comparison to those idiots who just kill animals out of nowhere and even make up complete bovine crap like reasons not to shear sheep.
I am not a FFXIV player at all but I love watching these whenever a new one drops. Jo, between the art, the animation, the gags, the range of voice performances and the _composing_ it's frankly getting a little rude how talented you are. Hope you keep it up!
Right after this video I played some music, but two frames from your outro glitched into the video, so I was listening to rock while the lizard man headbutted like crazy on a corner. Love it.
Thank you for this! I'm thinking ranged dps is gonna be my main category (why yes, I was a band nerd and had theater friends), so this is very helpful to get more perspective on the class. I love the transitions between the jobs too, lmao. Amazing work as always!! 💜
Ranged dps starts very dull compared to other dps classes, especially if you choose ranger/bard as your starting class; but definitely keep at it! Once they pass 50 and start getting more of their special moves they are a blast to play.
@@caosisaac I am indeed starting out as Archer! Currently level 18 and on MSQ level 15. I really like Archer so far, so I'm definitely keeping it going. I look forward to getting to higher levels for sure! Once I start unlocking those songs, that'll be a real treat.
@@mythicmysticmoon im glad you are enjoying it! Another special thing about bard you may already know that jocat mentioned is theyre the only class that can play instruments. What he also didnt (probably for legal reasons) mention is there are sites you can find where you can copy scripts to auto play certain fan created songs so you can put on grand performances if you want! I dont have a bard yet myself but its close on my agenda to level and i plan on snagging a few harp or piano covers of some kingdom hearts songs to play at my leisure haha. The ranged dps i have the most experience with is my lvl 80 dancer.
@@caosisaac Yep! I'm super looking forward to getting my musical instrument. I, myself, play clarinet and already have a bunch of songs from video games and movies and such that I transcribed written down. So I have a good repitoire to go through. I'll definitely give those sites a look, too, to see what they have. Thank you! 💜
I like that part about the ranged tax because I've definitely held top or second DPS slot with machinist due to keeping attacks rolling out like the conveyor belt of pain that I am
Another fine entry into the series Mr JoCat and I love the reference to Total Eclipse of the Heart at the beginning. And the lyrics to Vamo' Alla Flamenco *chefs kiss*
Thanks to SE for making two of three ranged jobs related to music, thereby encouraging people like JoCat to create a very music heavy guide! :D Really love the guide! (That said, yes, ranged can stand wherever, but that bard backflip is still a joke. Rarely actually helps me because getting away from the boss is usually not an issue to begin with because that's not my place to be in the first place, and when AOEs drop all over the arena, getting away from the boss won't really help. Gimme dancer dash, let me gracefully accidentally dash over cliffs like a dragoon!)
THIS WAS EVERYTHING I WAS HOPING FOR AND MORE! As a dancer main, gotta admit, JoCat is 100% spot on. 😆 The only thing I would add is the healing dance and shield samba can majorly save a party when the healers are struggling to get rezs.
to all ranged tho plz move closer to the party you won't get any AOE heals and and tanks can't pull things off you if the fight's in Garlemald and you're over in Ohio.
This video seems like it took a loooot of effort to make. Really well done homie, played ffxiv back in the day, good times, check it out in Dec for a week or two, still neat but done and had my fun Thanks for the trip down memory lane lol ^^
I really hope JoCat makes BLU its own separate video about how it is objectively the best and most fun job of them all, and not just a footnote in the caster video.
Important Note: Stormblood is not being added to the Free Trial. When purchasing FF14, you can either purchase a Starter Edition that is... basically just ARR and Heavensward like the Free Trial, but without the Free Trial restrictions like the level cap, gil cap, or social restrictions, but still requires a paid subscription, or you can just purchase Endwalker directly and get everything. People who were suckered into just buying the Starter Edition can now add Stormblood to their account for free while the promotion lasts (until May 8th I think). It's somewhat misleading due to how obscure the Starter Edition is compared to the Free Trial and just buying Endwalker
It says a lot that every time a video comes out about Phys ranged I brace myself to get bullied. Not that it's your style (except for the genuinely funny "in character" yelling at us moments) but thanks for not contributing to that low hanging fruit humour 💖
All three ranged DPS are performers:
The bard performs music
The Dancer performs dances
And the Machinist who preforms crimes
Machinists perform repairs and tune-ups... and sabotages the enemy boss' car like Dick Dastardly in Wacky Races...
@@SeedlingNL so... yeah, Crimes.
@@ashinox Even if the race itself is highly illegal and done with vehicles that wouldn't pass inspection?

MCH plays Tchaikovsky's 1812 overture (the one with cannons), BRD adds lyrics, and DNC brings the vibes.
More music should feature the use of artillery! (Every true MCH agrees with this statement.)
Another fine entry into the series Mr JoCat and I love the reference to Total Eclipse of the Heart at the beginning. And the lyrics to Vamo' Alla Flamenco *chefs kiss*
Finallyyyyyy! I waited so much for the continuation of this series!!! "Just dreaming about him reaching the Magical DPSs hohohoh"
Beautiful like always but I lost it at the Queen's 'multiple frequency settings' xD
When the world needed him the most, he returns!
Thanks to SE for making two of three ranged jobs related to music, thereby encouraging people like JoCat to create a very music heavy guide! :D
Really love the guide! (That said, yes, ranged can stand wherever, but that bard backflip is still a joke. Rarely actually helps me because getting away from the boss is usually not an issue to begin with because that's not my place to be in the first place, and when AOEs drop all over the arena, getting away from the boss won't really help. Gimme dancer dash, let me gracefully accidentally dash over cliffs like a dragoon!)
They removed the whitemage staff from the outro a subtle reference to how Bard used to have a heal lb but had it removed.
Fantastic work as always JoCat. Now i cant stop thinking if my Automaton Queen has that vibrate setting… or who put it there
I haven't stop laughing from the first second to the end. My god Jo, thank you
Now all we need is Magic DPS and we got the whole set~
Good stuff, JoCat!
THIS WAS EVERYTHING I WAS HOPING FOR AND MORE! As a dancer main, gotta admit, JoCat is 100% spot on. 😆 The only thing I would add is the healing dance and shield samba can majorly save a party when the healers are struggling to get rezs.
I had asked for it and I am so happy it turned out the way it did. You sir are a godcat ❤
Yup. Mch is my comfort class. It's my main job and I do story content with it. Because it's easy. And it does a lot of damage.
These JoCat vids always put a smile on my face.
(mostly due to the completely unexpected bit of randomness in his monologue)
Always love a Bard Jocat moment
3:20 Missed opportunity for a for a "tsundarrow" pun. Great vid!
As someone who mains MCH for my ranged DPS that section of the video KILLED ME... Twice
Oh man it's so nice to wake up to this video upload in the morning. Worth the wait. I'll gladly wait a year for caster dps
Not Jocat making an arrow a tsundare
It's cause for celebration in my play group when Jocat uploads. Always love a new guide
Almost spat out my drink when I saw halfheartxi in the video. Not only do I follow them, I've actually commissioned them more than once! 😂
The absolute shade of including a song for Dancer but not Bard
I love it
to all ranged tho
plz move closer to the party
you won't get any AOE heals and and tanks can't pull things off you if the fight's in Garlemald and you're over in Ohio.
Dude...I fuggin love your content. Thank you for for setting your song to one of my all time favourite FF tracks. Fekkin brilliant.
Fantaqsy. You might change it but I'll remember forever
So will the comments
I always enjoy the little musical performances that are sometimes spread over the videos. Finders crossed for a full rendition of the dancer song.
I can't be the only one who feels a sharp tang of jealousy when the Dancer picks the other DPS
You just gotta dps harder than the person they chose even without their buff, then they will know their mistake 😌
just laugh whenever you're higher enmity than their partner
I feel jealous when the Dancer picks the tank instead of me, the other Dancer. (Don’t do this!)
This video seems like it took a loooot of effort to make.
Really well done homie, played ffxiv back in the day, good times, check it out in Dec for a week or two, still neat but done and had my fun
Thanks for the trip down memory lane lol ^^
"Put down bosses faster than PETA when it finds a stray"
Damn, you went straight for the throat.😂😂
This was so long in the making from the last
And I was very much not disappointed 😂❤
As a bard main, yeah this is accurate.
And Dancer definitely feels like I’m playing with a fisher price toy sometimes with how easy the rotation is XD
I want you to know you made my day so much better. This series is just the best. Thank you.
Excellent as always! Thank you for the wonderful video, Cat of Jo ❤
Love your videos! Also the mush reminded me I needed to make my breakfast so thanks!
🔧 MCH mains rise 🔧
These videos are what got me into ff14. Funny as hell, and yet still informative, I love them!
Ah yes my favourite mmo, Final Fantaqsy XIV
As a ranged main in EW (though I play most classes), the description is spot-on! Great work on this!
4:02
GOBBO, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I really hope JoCat makes BLU its own separate video about how it is objectively the best and most fun job of them all, and not just a footnote in the caster video.
I did not expect an addition this series, a pleasant suprise 🤣
Ah, the Final Fantasqy Series is the best- I’m personally a fan of Final Fantasqy XIV: Heavensqward
first spooky slice, now we need the full version of the dancer song :D
Final Fantaqsy XIV is an amazing MMO and I hear they have a free trial that includes Heavensward up to level 60 AND NOW STORMBLOOD.
thats a temporary deal
Important Note: Stormblood is not being added to the Free Trial. When purchasing FF14, you can either purchase a Starter Edition that is... basically just ARR and Heavensward like the Free Trial, but without the Free Trial restrictions like the level cap, gil cap, or social restrictions, but still requires a paid subscription, or you can just purchase Endwalker directly and get everything.
People who were suckered into just buying the Starter Edition can now add Stormblood to their account for free while the promotion lasts (until May 8th I think). It's somewhat misleading due to how obscure the Starter Edition is compared to the Free Trial and just buying Endwalker
As someone who mains the dancer class....it's so good to see our song FINALLY have lyrics that kick ass! XD
It says a lot that every time a video comes out about Phys ranged I brace myself to get bullied. Not that it's your style (except for the genuinely funny "in character" yelling at us moments) but thanks for not contributing to that low hanging fruit humour 💖
