What Job Is Generally Sought After

brah

YES! In his case yes. He doesn't even have it at 99 yet.

If you burn geo to 99 just so you can go to end game without actually playing the game then you aren't playing the game!

it's a really simple concept to understand.
why not then just go buy a character with everything already done?

I can see him now... answering a pug shout for a geo when he hasn't played it at all...this is going to be awesome!

maybe you guys should write a macros for him called "let someone else play my character" so he can push it once and then someone else will actually play the game for him and he can just watch....

and then people wonder why everyone would rather take/dual box a mule

My R/E/M BRD mule is on Duna GEO 99% of the time. If I could get Honor March on her, it might be a different story. Depends on if I can still get 4x Ghorn level songs on but I'm fairly sure it wouldn't be possible.

Besides, the mind-f_ck of having to put up 4x Harp songs, Trob/Nightingale 3x Ghorn songs and introducing an additional step of now switching out Ghorn for the Aeonic Honor March seems like a SHITON of effort where I could just entrust indi-haste my main, indy-fury myself and geo-frailty and probably achieve better results.
2x Ghorn Minuets < 1 x Indi-frailty + Geo fury @ 900 geo skill
I can always /whm or /rdm on geo and just indi-haste and cast haste to beat 2x Ghorn Marchs.

Soulvoice is another story, but that's once every 45 mins.


@OP - play BLM. Easiest job to currently gear and be @ end game status for. Took me 4 days of being back to game after 2 years hiatus to pump out 99,9999 Thunder VI magic Bursts. That's not a testestament to how great my blm is, just how awesome idris-geo's are.

Poor brd.. seriously wtf was SE thinking making GEO.. lol...

become their own one man band

Claiming playing geo being the same as buying a character or auto play macro is one of the most ridiculous statement I've ever seen.

Claiming playing geo being the same as buying a character or auto play macro is one of the most ridiculous statement I've ever seen. Not sure how playing geo is somehow the same as buying char but playing drk nin or whatever other jobs are not buying char? Please stop.

There are lots of "real challenges" in this game after skipping low tier content. You can challenge T3 T4, you can try to perfect one of your jobs and do parse war. Playing low tier content the hard way by trying to join parties on undergeared thf isn't "real challenge".

He is just bitter that the endgame is not a game of who has a better claimbot.

I leveled smn to help my shellmates get through Prommies in CoP
I miss people working together to get stuff that would help others.


not so they could stand in jeuno glowing

If GEO was in other games..

Street Fighter 5:
Blanka - mash that punch button over and over again for the electric move, that's all you're good for you monkey.

Tekken:
Eddie.
Any combination of moves will result in what aesthetically appears to be very skilled gameplay.
Truth is you have no *** clue what you're doing, Eddie fans. Try playing with Yoshimitsu or Howarang.

Mario Kart:
Toad - f u mushroom

Smashbross:
FAWKUN PAWNCH

if GEO was an action movie it would star chuck norris, co-star chuck norris, be directed by chuck norris, produced by chuck norris, and critiqued by chuck norris.

If GEO was a sports car it would be an F22 Raptor.

All these ***talk about geo not needing "skill", I bet you still look for a geo for group or endgame content. So do you make others play geo for you while you play whatever job that needs most skill ever?

Dunno how you guys don't understand what Nik's saying: Nearly everyone who is leveling GEO is doing so because of the demand for it in strategies. It's lame for a new person to come back to the game and be told "Level GEO or you won't get to do anything".

Are you french? If you were capable of reading you would see I already said that I am my group's GEO on my mule. I'm also the WHM and the Tank unless I'm lucky enough to be able to come DD.


And do you really want to sit there with a straight face and tell me GEO isn't easy street?

Yes I'm capable of reading the title of this thread at least. Also all of the current popular job aren't that skill demanding, except RUN

I dunno though. I've seen bad Geos in my time. To say Geo doesn't take any skill to play is really undermining the jobs potential.
Knowing what spells to use and when, not casting the same spell as another geo, knowing that you can do decent MB damage, knowing how to apply the JAs etc.

I like Rune, I had a lot of fun with Epeolatry. Such a great tool. Its not game breaking like Idris+Bolster is, but AM3+ Battuta and Inspiration is a fun playstyle.

Oh come on Afania, the title of the thread is exactly what makes talking about Geo relevant.

Is there another job as in high demand at the moment?
Is the job very easy to get into?(As opposed to say, Blue where you have 100 blue spells to farm?)
Is the job effective?

If you wanted a way back intothe game, what job would you recommend? I already recommended BLM because GEO is not particularly fun, engaging, or challenging. But it is most def the fastest route to group content.

If you loose to a Blanka in street fighter who spams the electric charge, you suck at street fighter.

we only shine in groups. Compared to what BLU and SCH can do alone it's basically nothing.

When the alternative is not being invited to anything I don't see how it's lame. Most shouts, even if they're not BLU specific, request 1100+ acc on a DD. Do you know how difficult that is for a newly returning player to acquire?

I regret leveling GEO. Regardless of my inclusion in events, it's the most boring job I've ever played. Put up Indi-, put down Geo-, stand there til they wear off, re-cast as needed. But it's the only job people will let me play in events. I also have WHM RDM DRG and WAR decently geared, but nope. Gotta bring dat GEO.

Then get an enfeebling set and keep frazzle/distract/paralyze/slow/blind up. Or get a nuke set and nuke away (unless you're doing t4 content where DEATH ONLY NOBODY ELSE NUKES!). Or you can sub WHM and help heal/erase/-na. There's so much more you CAN do on GEO.

GEO is the easiest job to gear and use in almost ANY content in the game. It's literally the only job that is required for anything hard and pretty much all content.
