Astrologian

Lore

"Ever has man coveted knowledge, and none more so than that of his fate. Thus did he labor to master the skill of foresight—but initial efforts bore little fruit. That is, until he looked to the stars above, which foretell the coming seasons, and learned to read the heavens.
Though this gift is known today as astrology, the people of Sharlayan saw fit to not only read the stars, but to write their movements as well. By attuning their aetherial energies to that of constellations, they learned to wield magicks with heretofore unseen properties.
Thus was astromancy born—a new form of magick which grants its users power over fate. Employing a star globe and divining deck in their miraculous deeds, fortune always smiles upon these masters of arcana." — Game Description

General Information

Astrologian is a healer job introduced in 2014 Fan Fest in Tokyo. Astrologian's main weapon is the Star Globe. The job starts from level 30, does not require a base class and requires Heavensward. It employs the use of celestial magicks along with a divining deck in order to heal and support their parties.

Astrologians have access to two stances. Players can switch between Diurnal Sect (provides regen effects) and Nocturnal Sect (provides barrier effects), but cannot do so during combat. This allows the Astrologian to change function to suit the party's needs (for instance, you may use Diurnal Sect if your party includes a Scholar, and Nocturnal Sect if your party has a White Mage.

Astrologians draws cards randomly, which can be used to give party members one of six buffs. These buffs can also be enhanced in potency or duration, or made to cover an area of effect in exchange for potency. Mastering these effects is a key skill in making the most of your abilities.

Requirement

• Heavensward
• Access to Ishgard, where Astrologian's Guild is located.
• Complete the quest Stairway to the Heavens.

Job Gauge

Official Lodestone Job Guide (Always up-to-date)

Introduction

Job Gauge refers either to an user interface element first added during Stormblood (patch 4.0) that is used to track Job's specific resources or to resource itself. This includes, but is not limited, to:

• Elements used to track uptime of Job's specific buffs. For example Dark Knight's Darkside or Ninja's Huton.
• Elements used to track numerical value (usually 0 to 100) of available resources. For example Paladin's Shield Oath or Samurai's Kenki.
• Elements used to track number of available stacks (usually 0 to 3) of specific Job Gauge. For example White Mage's lilies or Scholar's Aetherflow.

Multiple resources can be shown in a single UI element, for example Sage's Addersgall gauge shows progress bar for replenishing Addersgall, current amount of Addersgall stacks and current amount of Addersting stacks.

Some gauges can be unevenly split into multiple UI elements, for example Samurai has 3 resources - Sen, Kenki and Meditation stacks. Sen has individual UI element, while Kenki and Meditation stacks share the same UI element.

In PvP, Job Gauges were previously present but have been removed with the PvP job overhaul in patch 6.1.

The Job Gauge Description may be viewed from the "Actions and Traits" window, with a ? button at the bottom of the window.

Simple Job Gauge

Simple Job Gauges are simplified version of the original UI element. They contain same information as the original, but they do not have unnecessary graphical components, like background images or overwhelming animations. Simplified Job Gauges of different Jobs often look very similar if they work on similar basis. For example, simplified version of White Mage's lilies and blood lilies is nearly identical to Sage's Addersgall and Addersting, while their original version are easily distinguishable because of their very distinct graphical design.

Switching between Normal/Simple Modes

You can switch between the normal and simple versions of the Job Gauge display through the individual HUD layout options.

• You will need to be on the job you want to change your Job Gauge.

You can also switch between the two versions using the following text command:

/jobhudmode

If there are more Job Gauges available, assign a number to switch the specific Job Gauge display:

/jobhudmode [number]

For Samurai, Job Gauge 1 is the Kenki gauge, and 2 is the Sen gauge.

If Job has multiple UI elements, you can mix and match them however you want. You can use simplified Kenki gauge while simultaneously use normal Sen gauge or any other combination.

Settings for both styles of Job Gauges are saved on the HUD layouts 1 through 4 individually, so you can switch between all sorts of modes as you like.

Tanks

All Tanks have gauges that change their design to reflect whether they have their respective tank stance active.

Paladin

Oath Gauge:

• Oath is charged by auto-attacks. Auto-attack for Paladin occurs every 2.24 seconds, meaning it takes 44.8 seconds to charge gauge from 0 to 100. The accumulated Oath can then be consumed for Sheltron, Holy Sheltron, Intervention or Cover.
• Whether tank stance Iron Will is active is indicated by golden background picture in normal gauge, or by small symbol on the left of the gauge in simplified version.

Warrior

Beast Gauge:

• Beast gauge charges by using most of the regular weaponskills and by ability Infuriate. Gauge can be spent for heavy hitting attacks like Fell Cleave.
• Whether tank stance Defiance is active is indicated by background picture in normal gauge, or by small symbol on the left of the gauge in simplified version.

Dark Knight

Blood Gauge:

• Charged using weaponskills Souleater or Stalwart Soul. Gauge can be spent on Bloodspiller or Quietus. Using Delirium provides 3 stacks, which can be used for Bloodspiller or Quietus without using up Blood Gauge.

• Whether tank stance Grit is active is indicated by glow and animation of picture on the left side in normal gauge, or by small symbol on the left of the gauge in simplified version.

Darkside Gauge:

• Shows remaining duration of Darkside.
• Shows whether Dark Arts is available.
• Show remaining duration of Living Shadow.

Gunbreaker

Powder Gauge:

• Single Cartridge is gained by finishing basic combo. 3 Cartridges are gained by using Bloodfest (only 2 at lower levels).
• Cartridges can be spent on damage-oriented abilities. Burst Strike and Gnashing Fang cost 1 Cartridge, while Double Down costs 2 Cartridges.
• Whether tank stance Royal Guard is active is indicated by red pulsating symbol, or by small symbol on the left of the gauge in simplified version.

Healers

White Mage

Healing Gauge:

• Every 20 seconds in combat, White Mage will gain a lily and they may hold up to 3 at any time. Lilies can be spent on the spells Afflatus Solace and Afflatus Rapture.

Scholar

Aetherflow gauge:

• Scholar gets 3 Aetherflow stacks by using ability Aetherflow or Dissipation. Aetherflow stacks are used for abilities Lustrate, Indomitability, Excogitation, Sacred Soil and Energy Drain.
• Cost of Aetherflow stack can be nullified using Recitation, but only for Indomitability and Excogitation

Faerie gauge:

Sage

Eukrasia:

• Indicates whether you are able to execute special Eukrasian abilities. For example, without Eukrasia active, Diagnosis has only weak healing effect. With Eukrasia active, it changes to Eukrasian Diagnosis, which additionally erects barrier on target.

Addersgall Gauge:

• Addersgall charges passively every 30 seconds, with maximum of 3 stacks. Additionaly, one stack can be gained from ability Rhizomata. Addersgall can be used for healing abilities. Each of those abilities additionally restore 700 MP, meaning that usage of this gauge helps with regaining mana.

• Enochian timer and status. Enochian is activated whenever Astral Fire or Umbral Ice is entered and is lost when neither Astral Fire or Umbral Ice is active.

• The Trance Gauge has three functions. First, it tracks Arcanum, three different colored jewels. Each one is used to summon a different pet, which will perform a powerful AoE attack and augment the user's spells. Second, it tracks the current duration of   Aethercharge, which later upgrades to   Dreadwyrm Trance, and later still to the combat duration remaining for Demi-Bahamut after learning   Summon Bahamut. Finally, after learning   Summon Phoenix, the gauge will indicate whether the next Demi-Primal summon will be Demi-Bahamut or Demi-Phoenix.

Red Mage

Balance Gauge:

• Tracks current amount of black and white mana
• If the two manas are in great imbalance, crystal on top will start glowing with dominant element, making balancing manas harder.
• When both kinds of mana are charged up, certain melee attacks are Enchanted, and will deal significantly increased damage.
• After executing enchanted melee attack, you gain Mana stack. At 3 stacks, you are able to execute Verflare and Verholy.
