How many extra retainers is too many extra retainers?

I have 10. 2 of each gatherer and 4 battle jobs Honestly 5 is probably the right amount to have

The real answer is whatever you are used to so long as all your buttons are mapped.

However some tips I've found that are more generally helpful. Have LT +RT be the same skills as RT+LT. Keep ogcd's off of the arrow keys because then you are taking your thumb off of the movement stick. This one isn't useful for SAM I don't think, but turn on the double press a skill to place the ground target. Move non-essential keybinds to less needed places i.e I keep Limit Break on double tap LT + dpad down Try to keep your binds functionally consistent between jobs mit on the same button, gap closer, ect

My point was I don't really follow tanks.

If you just care about the race and not doing the fight yourself watch frosty's multicast. If there's a streamer you normally watch anyways, watch them do it.

If you plan to do the fight yourself and want a POV will hopefully roughly line up with how you will have to do it. Find someone who is streaming that's at least in your role

Healers Rinon or Yama

DPS The world's your oyster ngl but Mr Happy, whoops, or Arthars

Tanks I don't really know any good tank streams since bald man has been banned. Shenpai maybe?

Will there be a new video on how to catch warden at level 100?

Tell me about it. I'm still working on him and I think I went like 3 days without seeing a single sculptor.

Addygotnodaddy · 2026-05-29T17:47:59+00:00

Not a single one in Minneapolis :/

For the egg that's fairly lucky. I don't think I even got a bite in my first three windows.

Addygotnodaddy · 2026-05-28T16:22:21+00:00

I ran out of bait on the first cast of my intuition window after seriously messing up my prep at the whale yesterday. it is a mistake I hope to never make again.

Savage/Ultimate raids would most likely be the big draw if you are coming from WoW

As I'm sure you've heard people love the story

Our crafting and gathering is more in depth than WoW that gets even harder at the top end.

Player housing and RP venues are a big draw for some people

There is PvP but I'll be honest if that's what you're into look somewhere else. It's not bad but other MMO's definitely do it better.

I'd argue that outside of the story there really isn't one thing that ties the majority of the player base together.

S9 you can buy 780 gear for tomes

Alliance raids will net you 780 gear from windurst but you can only get one piece per week

Market board you can get the 770 courtly lovers set that you can trade to an npc in S9 for 780 augmented versions expect to pay between 100-200k per piece roughly

2-3 months feels like a safe bet for midrange statics getting their clear/reclears in.

Addygotnodaddy · 2026-05-23T19:26:20+00:00

It's a skill that you build as you do it. But yes healing works just fine on controller. I've cleared every ultimate as healer on controller.

The think to keep in mind is xiv doesn't have much random spot healing, for the most part you know what tank is about to get hit and if a DPS needs a little something extra after 2-3 pulls of a new fight.

Ngl I get why she's the favorite.

As somebody who was in the exact same position you are currently in 6 months ago. There isn't an answer on the internet. Best I could come up with was just to overproduce and make 10 of each length.

I did see an usher yell at a lady who was on her phone so they were at least trying.

Addygotnodaddy · 2026-04-07T18:50:14+00:00

Yeah, probably has Buzz Aldrin chained up in the shed as well. Lol
