Try D8. I know people like to shit on it but it gives me this super strange focused high that slows down your perception of time. It’s like cheating, between GCDS it feels like I have ages to figure out the most optimal next cast, totally good for reactionary jobs like phys ranged.

@@whisperingshadowXI Iirc Blue Mage is a real job in FF11. Blue Mage is honestly one of those things you can't add afterwards without changing game balance entirely. Imo it has to be added at the start of the next MMO or else it's probably gonna end up a limited job again
We console ourselves with the knowledge that the reason we can't join normal groups, is because we are literally too powerful. We make the content too easy! A group of level 70 Blue mages has dps equivalent to a full ilvl group of level 80's.

I was showing a friend playing healer where to stand when battling Titan. And then I backflip, soaring right over the side. Where to stand is off the ledge apparently
Ive had 2 dps actually fight each other to get my dance partner,bringing up logs,damage and etc. Pretty pathetic imo. I then saw the dark knight and thought "damn nice opener babe" and gave it to the tank. They were both silent afterwards.

Plus, the job that wants the more attention is not astro, nor dancer, it is us, red mages! We want to be praised for our usefulness to the group! We want to be praised for our heals, our raises and buffs, for our comitment of replacing a healer when they die! And the true fear of a red mage is not loosing the melee combo because of a mecanic (you can just pause the combo, dodge the mecanic and continue where you stopped). No the true fear of a red mage is getting in a dungeon where the synchronised lvl is below lvl 64... or even WORSE! *BELOW 54* .

Hearing the facts about Paladin im now really looking at myself, never before have i been called out so accurately. Srsly tho banger video i really enjoy your content (and thank you for including my girl in the PLD part)
As a dancer main it feels super weird when peeps fight over dance partner in non-endgame duties?? I always give it to the prettiest glam bc if we're gonna combo we gotta match
As someone that started out XIV with DRG let me just say that I had no idea who he was, I never even played the game he's in. I just thought the armor looked cool and the dragon knight concept appealing.
As someone who has mained both Monk and Bard... how dare you be so correct and accurate! Also, was a choir girl in high school, so uh, Bard is a close I can get until they add a Singer class, lolololol. It makes sense that I chose Bard after many years (from 1.0 on) of being a Monk, I hear music soothes the raging Monk main, or something to that effect. Don't quote me on that.
Yo I’m new to the game and this video helped me understand pretty much all the class jobs even if you ripped into some of them 😂 this was a very informative and funny video! I’m glad you don’t take yourself too serious. Keep up the great work! 👍
When I first started playing FFXIV, I picked summoner as my main, and I can confidently agree with this video that it is a very easy class to play, especially when I do first time runs through MSQ. I find it's not easy to mess up and the spells are beautiful
It was a very controversial update that changed summoner because of that. I picked summoner originally because it had some crazy complex rotations and in a single update it went from one of the hardest to one of the easiest. I still enjoy playing it as a class but is sucks being constantly called out for picking an 'easy' class when many people picked it for the exact opposite reason. Also sucks that the took the actual pet stuff away, having titan tank for you when playing solo was pretty nice.
@@Subjagator yo same dude. smn back then was top 3 in dps with samurai and black mage. now its been reduced to being the easiest class. wish ffxiv would at least add a class that played like old summoner, cause the adrenaline rush of being top in dps while in a savage raid was amazing.
it just feels wrong not having the carby follow me everywhere, I originally was gonna go scholar instead of summoner but then I learned that scholar doesn't have carby I instantly changed my mind.
@@Nempo13 I got to 90 on my smn. Now I have a level 90 healer that I have no idea how to use and am afraid to use in any group content because I will 100% screw it up and ruin every run.
I started playing the game due to some friends, on a casual basis. Since no one of them play a tankjob main, I looked into them and decided to play Gunbreaker because it looked fun due to the many skills, off global CDs. And it is. It is fast, fun, and dishes out quite some damage, at least it feels like it. Skills look great, and it feels satisfying during your no mercy phases. I do wear the last job specific outfit, in red though, because I love the color. Obviously I am not objective about my character, but I think my Au`ra looks good in it. I did look into 3 other jobs, just to see a bit of other perspectives. Reaper for melee DPS, simply because the skills look awesome. Not gonna lie, thats basically why. Shit looks cool, thats enough for me. Redmage for a "caster" dps. Similar reason to Gunbreaker: it looked fun with the combo you get in the end. And it is. Also their class outfit? Yeah. I like it. Last: Dancer. Just a fun idea to be frank, something very different. And I like the mobility. I also kind of liked the irony of a big male Au`ra dancing around a fight.
You have a similar set up to me with my current 90s and the classes I leveled up first. Some friends of mine played but they didn't really have any tanks so I looked into that and landed on PLD which is and will always be my main despite the fun I have on other classes I leveled BRD next for a ranged DPS class (I was only PLD from when I started in Stormblood and then midway into Shadowbringers I leveled other classes and the transition from tank to DPS was night and day with how much I had felt I had to focus in duty roulettes) Next I leveled Arcanist for the fact that it could be a healer (Scholar) or a DPS (SMN) that shared the same exp bar so I covered 2 classes at once and had faster queues leveling as a SCH And then I leveled DRG for a melee DPS and its a lot of fun with a satisfying rotation that loops around itself Since then I have leveled every class to 50, healers to 60 (aside from SGE at base 70), and WAR and DRK to 60, while working on getting to omni90 and focusing on leveling tanks and healers over DPS while working on my commendations without begging for them. Recently I got my GNB to 90 and I've enjoyed it so much I'm planning on splitting my tank role depending on the needs of my group to be GNB or PLD based on what we need
Kudos for forward and Back during mch! ♥️ Also, rpr main here, and yeah, we're cool af, coolest job no question. Can also tank for 3 whole seconds, so best support job in game.
I dont even remember unlocking whm. I got drunk af one night, i vaguely recall giggling at the npc name "Biddy." Next day once i was sober i logged in and legit was startled. I was dead in a field in the east shroud and a level 10 cnj....i recall none of that...
I was playing this on the speakers when my sister came in right to hear all the innuendos about the tank classes. Then we sat down to watch the whole thing. Well done!
Astro is indeed a busy job. It's hard to get them cards off inbetween certain encounters. I like it but I'm so glad my sister used to main it because i can ask her wtf certain abilities do because i skim read on large descriptions sometimes. I got it down mostly. Just need to pace myself and not panic heal sometimes. We are getting through eden raids and it makes me fear for the future lol
That line about FPS players, damn that hit harder than a truck. I cannot say this enough, my friend Nero dragged me into this game from Destiny 2, sat me down, and said "watch this" as he gunned down a crowd of enemies as Machinist. I treasure that memory, Nero is the only OG friend of mine from the Destiny raid group I was in that stayed by my side since my early highschool years
@@brittaunfiltered4878 With RDM, DRG, SAM, and now Rpr, if you haven't backflipped or what not to your death at least once. You're not playing the job right. I main RDM. And have spent months getting use to using Engagement, instead of Displacement. And I'm still not 100% at not using it.
I feel a small sense of pride, knowing where each of those locations in the background takes place. Tho i dont play ffxiv anymore, i feel satisfied with the end of Endwalker.
Don't feel sorry for us Red Mages. We choose to do the slashy dashy, to sacrifice our damage to save the party's bacon, to amuse by Displacing ourselves right over the edge (because it's calling tonight), but most of all We do it for Verblind. That glorious moment of actinic agony is worth all the pain that came before, and which will come after.
While I was watching, you were talking about Ninja. The moment you finished saying "Players who have awful internet" was the moment my internet died for a few seconds and I thought the video stuck on a loading icon was part of the video LOL
I was totally waiting for you to talk about Blue Mages. Aka Enemy skill Jockies. I'm a monk, and you're right, I'm insane. But I'm also a ninja so it balances out
12:51 I played enhancement shaman for a long time specifically because I enjoyed how active it was both as good dps but also team support with totems or emergency heals when someone took a bad hit or the healer's cc'd or the tanks just taking too much dmg for the healer to keep up during a rage phase. Red Mage sounds like a lot of fun for me - I really enjoy taking an active party roll as a DPS/Support. If I'd have to burn all my mana to rez team members, it doesn't matter if my DPS takes a hit: because I would have just prevented a wipe. Red mage sounds pretty awesome.
Imagine gow funny it would be if dark warriors were a thing "Back in my day we were just too angry to be sad. We picked up our axes and just Unga and bunga. Now I lay in sorrow for when I'll Unga my last bunga".
ITS SO STRESSFUL. I wanted to play ast and obv had to level a whm first... THAT SHIT WAS SCARY. Im not good being depended on lmao too much pressure ngl XD Everyone can just die. LMAO
actual quote from a BLM who died to the AOE after birds in P7S:"There was enough time to drag me or use mitigation when I was closer. It's got nothing to do with numbers, it's literally just awareness". *as they were still hugging the edge of the platform while everyone was in the middle shielding and mitigating to survive.* First time I ever heard somthing like that, BLM Mains be wild sometimes.
As RDM… backflip is just so much more fun! But of course we do use Engagement (I think) in place of backflip. BUT if there’s a wall during the boss fight… IM BACKFLIPPING!! I love being both a DPS and support. Then being able to rez our healers in case they got nuked is very handy! I’m not indecisive… sorta. But RDM has my favorite aesthetic and gameplay. Not too hard and not too easy. It’s very balanced in my tastes ^^
Don't forget all the OG SMNs who had 70+ move openers that made you look like you were playing Mozart. SMN NOW is ez pz, but even just last expansion....
DRG main here and yeah... kind of accurate. Although I picked the class solely because I wanted melee dps and the spear weapons looked cool, not inspired by any particular character. I did learn how to not be a floortank, though. Eventually.
I'm a sage main now. I was a whm main for awhile. I like Sage because I like being able to always be doing something and throwing shields before damage is so satisfying.
The only time I see DRK evade the edgelord jokes and it's the first LGBTQ class in any MMO. I heard LGBTQ class and was like oh? And then dark knight and I would've spat out my drink if I was drinking it. I knew there was something behind the edgelord vibe.
When I saw that video, I thought to myself that RDM was my fav class. And then I corrected myself saying actually SCH feels more natural to me. Paladin is great for his support. Ninja's debuff and magic makes it versatile. And then you said RDM were indecisive, and I felt seen...
Alright, I am legally obligated to tell you that Reapers their "monster" is a voidsent! It's a voidsent that they made a contract with that lends them their powers usually in exchange for aether or something else.
3:30, as someone that started on Thaumaturge, I’m really into mini games that allow um “stoning” in between such as fishing and triple triad, cause I sure as hell can’t in combat. Hahaha technically I’m a Goldsmith main now and live at the Gold Saucer.
SMN are some of the best callout givers when in a voice call. We have it a lot easier and it is way easier to memorize the muscle memory and adapt. And we also Rez, by the way... Oh, not speaking about me, but the potential.

So when a red mage back flips into the wall there cool. But when I as dragoon do it they call me a floor tank😭
Dragoon mains romance them bottomless pits
Me with arthritis: 🧍♂️
"HOW DOES HE KNOW????"
As a dancer main it feels super weird when peeps fight over dance partner in non-endgame duties?? I always give it to the prettiest glam bc if we're gonna combo we gotta match
As someone that started out XIV with DRG let me just say that I had no idea who he was, I never even played the game he's in. I just thought the armor looked cool and the dragon knight concept appealing.
Same, cool armor go brrr
@@orionstardust2060 Pointy sticks goes brr.
I started as dragoon because my friend said it's the easiest lol
@@no00ob Your friend is... wrong, they're wrong. Lol
@@Stickarms99 I mean I got bored of the class pretty quickly, seemed easy enough to me and switched to black mage lol
As someone who has mained both Monk and Bard... how dare you be so correct and accurate! Also, was a choir girl in high school, so uh, Bard is a close I can get until they add a Singer class, lolololol. It makes sense that I chose Bard after many years (from 1.0 on) of being a Monk, I hear music soothes the raging Monk main, or something to that effect. Don't quote me on that.

thank you for putting my yellow samurai in the video!! i stood in ul'dah not knowing i was gonna be picked
Yo I’m new to the game and this video helped me understand pretty much all the class jobs even if you ripped into some of them 😂 this was a very informative and funny video! I’m glad you don’t take yourself too serious. Keep up the great work! 👍
Hey, just wanna say? Never god damned change. Your humor in your videos helped me during a very dark time
Thank you for that.
When I first started playing FFXIV, I picked summoner as my main, and I can confidently agree with this video that it is a very easy class to play, especially when I do first time runs through MSQ. I find it's not easy to mess up and the spells are beautiful
It was a very controversial update that changed summoner because of that. I picked summoner originally because it had some crazy complex rotations and in a single update it went from one of the hardest to one of the easiest. I still enjoy playing it as a class but is sucks being constantly called out for picking an 'easy' class when many people picked it for the exact opposite reason. Also sucks that the took the actual pet stuff away, having titan tank for you when playing solo was pretty nice.
@@Subjagator yo same dude. smn back then was top 3 in dps with samurai and black mage. now its been reduced to being the easiest class. wish ffxiv would at least add a class that played like old summoner, cause the adrenaline rush of being top in dps while in a savage raid was amazing.
NOT FIRST??
ANYWAY GREAT VIDEO ALREADY❤😭 keep it up, big sun 😳❤
I main Dragoon, but only because I'm a Huge fan of Dragons, and the armor looks sooo good
Yeah. I main DRG but the branching and alternating rotation still trips me up so bad
Listen I like Dragoon because of Freya in 9 she was awesome and her jump abilities carries xD
I love dragoon too but it gets such a bad rap that I just avoided it... Lmao. I play the classes everyone makes fun of. LMAO fml we love bardssss
it just feels wrong not having the carby follow me everywhere, I originally was gonna go scholar instead of summoner but then I learned that scholar doesn't have carby I instantly changed my mind.
unlock both, play summoner and scholar gets free levels, or vice versa. Now you always have a dps and healer at level.
@@Nempo13
I got to 90 on my smn. Now I have a level 90 healer that I have no idea how to use and am afraid to use in any group content because I will 100% screw it up and ruin every run.
Good news! They added that in the latest patch! Now you can glam your fairy into a carbuncle!
I started playing the game due to some friends, on a casual basis. Since no one of them play a tankjob main, I looked into them and decided to play Gunbreaker because it looked fun due to the many skills, off global CDs. And it is. It is fast, fun, and dishes out quite some damage, at least it feels like it. Skills look great, and it feels satisfying during your no mercy phases. I do wear the last job specific outfit, in red though, because I love the color. Obviously I am not objective about my character, but I think my Au`ra looks good in it.
I did look into 3 other jobs, just to see a bit of other perspectives.
Reaper for melee DPS, simply because the skills look awesome. Not gonna lie, thats basically why. Shit looks cool, thats enough for me.
Redmage for a "caster" dps. Similar reason to Gunbreaker: it looked fun with the combo you get in the end. And it is. Also their class outfit? Yeah. I like it.
Last: Dancer. Just a fun idea to be frank, something very different. And I like the mobility. I also kind of liked the irony of a big male Au`ra dancing around a fight.
You have a similar set up to me with my current 90s and the classes I leveled up first.
Some friends of mine played but they didn't really have any tanks so I looked into that and landed on PLD which is and will always be my main despite the fun I have on other classes
I leveled BRD next for a ranged DPS class (I was only PLD from when I started in Stormblood and then midway into Shadowbringers I leveled other classes and the transition from tank to DPS was night and day with how much I had felt I had to focus in duty roulettes)
Next I leveled Arcanist for the fact that it could be a healer (Scholar) or a DPS (SMN) that shared the same exp bar so I covered 2 classes at once and had faster queues leveling as a SCH
And then I leveled DRG for a melee DPS and its a lot of fun with a satisfying rotation that loops around itself
Since then I have leveled every class to 50, healers to 60 (aside from SGE at base 70), and WAR and DRK to 60, while working on getting to omni90 and focusing on leveling tanks and healers over DPS while working on my commendations without begging for them. Recently I got my GNB to 90 and I've enjoyed it so much I'm planning on splitting my tank role depending on the needs of my group to be GNB or PLD based on what we need
and here I am who got into FF because of 7 and interest in Dragoon because of Freya in 9.
Kudos for forward and Back during mch! ♥️ Also, rpr main here, and yeah, we're cool af, coolest job no question. Can also tank for 3 whole seconds, so best support job in game.
Not to mention probably one of the best choices to solo PotD to floor 200 for the Necromancer title
@@MephistoGaming-zx3qh I never had the courage for that :D
I'll be waiting for the Maid dress Kou. If Bulwark found its return to FFXIV for PLDs, Kaiten has the potential to come back. XD
It's only gonna take like 3 expansions.
I'm out there waiting to see the return to relevant positionals again.
I dont even remember unlocking whm. I got drunk af one night, i vaguely recall giggling at the npc name "Biddy." Next day once i was sober i logged in and legit was startled. I was dead in a field in the east shroud and a level 10 cnj....i recall none of that...
I was playing this on the speakers when my sister came in right to hear all the innuendos about the tank classes. Then we sat down to watch the whole thing. Well done!
VOXERRRRRRR
Astro is indeed a busy job. It's hard to get them cards off inbetween certain encounters. I like it but I'm so glad my sister used to main it because i can ask her wtf certain abilities do because i skim read on large descriptions sometimes. I got it down mostly. Just need to pace myself and not panic heal sometimes. We are getting through eden raids and it makes me fear for the future lol
That line about FPS players, damn that hit harder than a truck. I cannot say this enough, my friend Nero dragged me into this game from Destiny 2, sat me down, and said "watch this" as he gunned down a crowd of enemies as Machinist.
I treasure that memory, Nero is the only OG friend of mine from the Destiny raid group I was in that stayed by my side since my early highschool years
I played WHM for 7-8 years (stopped in 2020 or 21). I never found the job boring. I always found ways to keep busy.
12:09 As a Red Mage main, I can confirm I’m a very indecisive individual. 😅
Have you gained Kou's respect by backflipping off the platform? I am also a Red Mage main and I have done that more than once.
@@brittaunfiltered4878 Oh absolutely haha. It’s the quintessential Red Mage experience!
@@brittaunfiltered4878 With RDM, DRG, SAM, and now Rpr, if you haven't backflipped or what not to your death at least once. You're not playing the job right. I main RDM. And have spent months getting use to using Engagement, instead of Displacement. And I'm still not 100% at not using it.
You a FF14 player: "Summoner is the easiest job in the world"
Me a WoW player: Oh so it's a Hunter
Turns out some things are universal.
I feel a small sense of pride, knowing where each of those locations in the background takes place.
Tho i dont play ffxiv anymore, i feel satisfied with the end of Endwalker.
Good to know that I am a baby summoner this is very helpful. :')
Don't feel sorry for us Red Mages. We choose to do the slashy dashy, to sacrifice our damage to save the party's bacon, to amuse by Displacing ourselves right over the edge (because it's calling tonight), but most of all
We do it for Verblind. That glorious moment of actinic agony is worth all the pain that came before, and which will come after.
While I was watching, you were talking about Ninja. The moment you finished saying "Players who have awful internet" was the moment my internet died for a few seconds and I thought the video stuck on a loading icon was part of the video LOL
4:20 Oh my god, I'm so glad someone else acknowledges that, it's such a satisfying noise. Doesn't make me want to play Scholar, but still.
I was totally waiting for you to talk about Blue Mages. Aka Enemy skill Jockies. I'm a monk, and you're right, I'm insane. But I'm also a ninja so it balances out
Lmao, i love your humor :D Great video. I just discovered your channel and it's great!
12:51 I played enhancement shaman for a long time specifically because I enjoyed how active it was both as good dps but also team support with totems or emergency heals when someone took a bad hit or the healer's cc'd or the tanks just taking too much dmg for the healer to keep up during a rage phase. Red Mage sounds like a lot of fun for me - I really enjoy taking an active party roll as a DPS/Support. If I'd have to burn all my mana to rez team members, it doesn't matter if my DPS takes a hit: because I would have just prevented a wipe. Red mage sounds pretty awesome.
as a dark knight main I can confirm that depression = MORE POWER MORE DAMAGE 😈
doesn't seem right, i still grey parse
@@kay_faraday just means you're not depressed enough.
@@simj202 I have my doubts about that
Imagine gow funny it would be if dark warriors were a thing
"Back in my day we were just too angry to be sad. We picked up our axes and just Unga and bunga. Now I lay in sorrow for when I'll Unga my last bunga".
I used to main WHM! I lived for the little heart attacks I'd get when my tank's HP went down by a big chunk 😅
ITS SO STRESSFUL. I wanted to play ast and obv had to level a whm first... THAT SHIT WAS SCARY. Im not good being depended on lmao too much pressure ngl XD Everyone can just die. LMAO
Can't wait for a video like this about Viper and Pictomancer.
I'm a DRG main and I simp for the floor and the death wall.
very relatable. also always test IF you can fall down :))
This is the thirstiest FFXIV job description video, and I'm here for it
actual quote from a BLM who died to the AOE after birds in P7S:"There was enough time to drag me or use mitigation when I was closer. It's got nothing to do with numbers, it's literally just awareness". *as they were still hugging the edge of the platform while everyone was in the middle shielding and mitigating to survive.*
First time I ever heard somthing like that, BLM Mains be wild sometimes.
I actually still use Selene in remembrance from when she was the better pet to summon.
Legit had me laughing! Great video!😂😂😂
As RDM… backflip is just so much more fun! But of course we do use Engagement (I think) in place of backflip.
BUT if there’s a wall during the boss fight… IM BACKFLIPPING!!
I love being both a DPS and support. Then being able to rez our healers in case they got nuked is very handy! I’m not indecisive… sorta. But RDM has my favorite aesthetic and gameplay. Not too hard and not too easy. It’s very balanced in my tastes ^^
TRUE AND REAL literally playing drg bc of aranea my gayass couldnt resist. :thumbsup:
I think it is a good video, it is 100% video and gunbreakers are cool. Honestly, unbiased gunbreaker main.
Don't forget all the OG SMNs who had 70+ move openers that made you look like you were playing Mozart. SMN NOW is ez pz, but even just last expansion....
I actually like both the old and new SMN, although I would wish that they would merge Ruin 4 and Gemshine, then add 6 more Buttons xD At least
DRG main here and yeah... kind of accurate. Although I picked the class solely because I wanted melee dps and the spear weapons looked cool, not inspired by any particular character. I did learn how to not be a floortank, though. Eventually.
I'm a sage main now. I was a whm main for awhile. I like Sage because I like being able to always be doing something and throwing shields before damage is so satisfying.
The only time I see DRK evade the edgelord jokes and it's the first LGBTQ class in any MMO. I heard LGBTQ class and was like oh? And then dark knight and I would've spat out my drink if I was drinking it. I knew there was something behind the edgelord vibe.
Out of the description I'll be rockin Dark Knight as one of the top players xD
When I saw that video, I thought to myself that RDM was my fav class. And then I corrected myself saying actually SCH feels more natural to me. Paladin is great for his support. Ninja's debuff and magic makes it versatile.
And then you said RDM were indecisive, and I felt seen...
As a Warrior main, I honestly couldn't agree more.
Alright, I am legally obligated to tell you that Reapers their "monster" is a voidsent!
It's a voidsent that they made a contract with that lends them their powers usually in exchange for aether or something else.
Played a Dragoon due to the Heavensward trailer looking awesome
another W video from the goat Kou
lvl100 paladin skill: Holy Shit
1:01 "Shields aren't that helpful..." Damn, hit'm where it hurts XD
Only starting playing in November and I'm so glad I found your videos. You're legitimately hilarious.
3:30, as someone that started on Thaumaturge, I’m really into mini games that allow um “stoning” in between such as fishing and triple triad, cause I sure as hell can’t in combat. Hahaha technically I’m a Goldsmith main now and live at the Gold Saucer.
EW WAR Can be summed up with the phrase: "The Job that's too angry to die."
May the Unga be with your bunga.
just came across this ch. lmao love this vid 🤣 monk is my main job since I started the game.
i was a pally main pre-rework so yeah you can call me a depressed Dark Knight main lmao
You can never stop me from skipping cutscenes!
SMN are some of the best callout givers when in a voice call. We have it a lot easier and it is way easier to memorize the muscle memory and adapt. And we also Rez, by the way...
Oh, not speaking about me, but the potential.
My mains
Tank: Dark Knight/Paladin
Phys Melee: Samurai/Dragoon/Reaper
Phys Ranged: Dancer/Bard
Magic DPS: Red Mage/Summoner
Healer: Scholar/Sage (but im trying to learn astro)
You know which job I feel sorry for, Blue Mage. Such a fun job, thats not alowed to do anything fun.
Thank you for convincing me I made the right choice coming back. Warrior is definitely the way to go, as I do not like dudes inside me.
After playing summoner I switched to Machinist and it was so much more fun. The job is dope.
I’d give you two thumbs up if I could for the spoiler alert. Can’t tell you how many times I impulsively threw my phone to avoid spoilers cuz brain panik an forgot how to close phone.
