![]() Even the basic attack combo requires either an ammunition buff with a moderate cooldown or, as mentioned, a bit of luck since each skill only has a 50 per cent chance to trigger the next skill in the combo chain. While the Machinist is one of the more complex damage dealing classes to play, it's also slightly reliant on luck. Turrets can even be promoted to support-style machines increasing either MP or TP regeneration for the party, similar to a Bard's song. ![]() By using guns and a turret, the Machinist deals rapid damage while maintaining a high level of mobility. The last of the three new jobs is the Machinist. Abilities such as this require extreme co-ordination between the healer and tank with massive payoffs when done right. Other skills like The Living Dead offer survivability by enabling the tank to remain at 1 HP even through most fatal damage, but if the Dark Knight isn't healed for the value of their full HP, they'll die when the buff wears off. By unleashing their inner darkness, these tanks will be able to increase damage mitigation while dealing more punishment at the cost of a continuous MP drain. The Dark Knight will have to balance both HP and MP in order to stay alive while keeping the enemies off the vulnerable healers and damage dealers. This greatsword-wielding tank offers more involved abilities for a tank class. Next we have one of the most anticipated new jobs since the announcement of Heavensward: the Dark Knight. Even though it possesses a bit of a higher learning curve, the Astrologian is a fantastic addition to the healing role with valuable support abilities. In eight player content, the Astrologian can switch between one of two stances to create synergy with a white mage or a scholar. While they suffer from a lack of any reputable damage dealing skills, boosting the party's abilities helps make up for the loss of damage that a comparable scholar or white mage can apply in most instances. The Astrologian relies on a deck of cards to dish out healing and deal offensive or defensive buffs. The first of the three new jobs is the Astrologian, a card wielding healing job with a strong support skill set. It's amazing that even with over 30 dungeons, instances like The Vault still seem new and exciting. The amount of entertaining content continues to be impressive even after all this time, and Square Enix has done a fantastic job at keeping old content still relevant for new players while keeping the new stuff feeling fresh. ![]() Ishgard offers players three new jobs, a new playable race, and expanded skill sets for existing jobs, as well as a whole heap of new dungeons, maps, and enemies. That said, if you're looking for a massively multiplayer online role-playing game with a great story, you'll be hard pressed to find another as deep and meaningful as this. Unfortunately, many of the cutscenes are still fairly stiff with questionable voice acting, and even with such deep and meaningful characters, watching your Warrior of Light nod every few seconds while the non-playable character performs scripted emotes can get tiring. Given that the base game's story is incredibly complex, detailed, and, well, long, it's clear that Square Enix wanted to focus heavily on continuing the fantastic plot points in Heavensward. Since the cliff-hanger ending in patch v2.55, players have been anxiously awaiting to find out what's next for our heroes, but it's important to note that in order to play Heavensward, you'll need to have completed all of the main story quests from A Realm Reborn. Welcome to Ishgard, frozen battleground between knights and dragons. Since its initial launch, it's already gone through a major revision titled A Realm Reborn, but now we're ready for its first expansion, Heavensward. Final Fantasy XIV has a history of improvement.
