Just finished up the MSQ. Did not disappoint. And that 80 dungeon just before the last boss...holy shit. I also don’t know how the hell Soken consistently shits out such amazing fucking music. Can’t wait to get the album when it’s released.

I don't understand the point of sub 30 being a different class AT ALL. Ok I'm a marauder up to 30 now I'm a warrior. There was no branching or anything. What the fuck was the point ?

I'm in a similar situation as yourself as I just started Heavensward for the first time. The only reason I bought ShB is because I got in on the pre-order (like literally the day before it stopped being a "pre" order lol). I wanted what ever it gave me for pre-ordering. Other than that, I don't think there is any reason to buy it until you are higher level, but I could be wrong.I'm thinking to get back into this as I've got a hankering for some level grindy action. I just checked my old account and I have a 50 DRK with the Heavensward expansion. So seems like I have that entire expansion to do. Would I get anything at all from either of the newer expansions? Or can I just hold off, hoping they go on sale before I hit 60.
I've done about 22 of the MSQ so far in Heavensward, gotten a chocobo that can fly, and started working on the quests to unlock flying.
I took some time to try out the Machinist and Astrologian jobs. I still prefer the Samurai over all the other jobs although I have dabbled a little here and there with red mage. Honsestly, I like the simplicity of the Samurai's combat rotation. It works for me.
Looking at the wiki, I see that the MSQ for Heavensward is laid out in level ranges (like a set is for 52-53, 54-55, etc). I am assuming that I can I mainly just do the MSQ quests in Heavensward and expect to get my main job (Samurai) to 60 by the end of it similar to how ARR worked out.
Over all, I'm have a good time in Heavensward.

Cool, thanks for that info. As far as leveling, is there a big difference between the archetypes? I've always leaned towards tanking when it comes to grouping, but if I just wanna plow through the content/story, would it go noticeably quicker as a DPS class or Sam/RDM?
I'm torn on an alt job to level up i still want to main my BLM but i want to level a tank i think.
Any good youtuber nerds with tank breakdowns in Shadowbringers? i swapped to my war/drk and like half the abilities dont exist anymore lol
Healers and tanks level faster because of all the required instances and them having fast queues. For the solo aspect, kinda doesn't matter although tanks have an easier time than healers imo. But not that much, and there's really very little killing random mobs as part of the MSQ, it's mostly sidequests(which aren't worth doing), and FATEs but these can be done as healer/tank just as fast by spamming aoes instead(can tank more mobs with them than DPS generally).Cool, thanks for that info.

What is the best materia for healers? I assume vit for jewelry but not sure otherwise
Generally crit > det is what you want for healers. Crit when possible, det otherwise. Spellspeed tends to be kinda bad because it doesn't affect your oGCD heals(aka most of your healing) and piety is only useful if you have mp issues, which currently you shouldn't have when playing properly. Direct hit might be worth it for savage on WHM if they don't nerf WHM, maybe, it's purely a DPS stat though so it'd be fairly limited cases situations.So is determination best or something else?
