Final Fantasy XIV Live Letter: September 17, 2021

The upcoming Final Fantasy XIV Live Letter will also likely cover the two new incoming jobs in greater detail. The Sage, an incoming “barrier-healer” will bring plenty of shields and a flashy, noulith-powered playstyle to rival the game's existing Scholars. Meanwhile, Reapers will be joining the melee DPS jobs, bringing a two-handed scythe and a voidsent familiar.

In addition to this, we'll probably see the upcoming changes to the game's 17 current jobs in the upcoming FFXIV Live Letter. One that will likely see a big playstyle change is Astrologian. Currently, they toe the line between being a “regen-healer” like White Mage and a “barrier-healer” like Scholar thanks to their Nocturnal and Diurnal Sect abilities. With the arrival of the Endwalker expansion however, there will be four healers, and Square Enix has decided to segregate them into the two niches more definitively.

Final Fantasy XIV has been seeing a huge uptick in players these past few months. This is most likely due to incoming expansion hype, a slew of popular content creators giving the game a try, and a tidal wave of goodwill its dedicated developers have deservedly achieved in the past few years.
