FFXIV: Dawntrail Lancer/Dragoon 1 to 100 Leveling Skills Guide WeskAlber 2024-10-08 | Ptach 7.3: AoE boost for Stardiver and Starcross to have a lower damage falloff of 40%.Patch 7.2: Small potency boosts on Stardiver, Drakesbane, and Heavens' Thrust.Patch 7.1: They took away two Nastrond stacks. Starcross did get the range boosted to 20 yalms, as well as many potency buffs. There's also a new interaction between Elusive Jump and Piercing Talon. There is a new Piercing Talon opener but this falls into extreme optimization.New? Got too many skills? Made the mistake of using a level skip and have no idea what anything does? Just hate reading? Try this guide out! This guide seeks to teach new Dragoons how to Dragoon properly, without getting too deep into optimization. I'll be showing off and explaining some openers but not delving too much deeper beyond that and general skill usage. Endgame is a long way away and there's lots to learn along the way. Start slow and work your way up one skill at a time! Then, graduate to more advanced guides.

Legacy is for when a guide is no longer relevant, but is here to show everyone what the job used to be like. Rather than being rid of this guide, I am seeking to preserve history of both my own content and the content of FFXIV. The game is always evolving but that doesn't mean we should get rid of the past.As a result, here is the Black Mage Job from Endwalker. Just keep in mind there is some other changes not listed here, such as small potency buffs... though I don't think BLM had any?General DPSing Guide: youtu.be/QV7gLorSweoMage Role Actions Guide: youtu.be/Hj7PpuSvCH4Guide to my HUD: youtu.be/GgXOHas9GyYDictionary of Terms: youtu.be/Oi8-myAY-Uc Opener images: imgur.com/a/vy4FIwUDawntrail 1-100 Guides Full Playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLoXER4idrFLZTFHQXlLzGIwGgNti_yKiSTwitch: twitch.tv/weskalberTwitter: twitter.com/WeskAlberBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/weskalber.bsky.socialDiscord: discord.gg/mbZkAgy3ejPatreon: patreon.com/WeskAlberTimestamps:Intro: 0:00Playstyle Summary: 1:59L1, 2.
