Warrior

Lore

"On the northernmost edge of Abalathia's Spine exists a mountain tribe renowned for producing fearsome mercenaries. Wielding greataxes and known as warriors, these men and women learn to harness their inner-beasts and translate that power to unbridled savagery on the battlefield.
In former times which saw war waged ceaselessly in Eorzea, the warriors featured prominently on the frontlines of battle. With the arrival of peacetime, however, their art has descended into the shadows of obscurity, where it remains to this day." — Game Description

Job Gauge

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

Beast Gauge is Warrior's Job Gauge.

Beast Gauge

Upon learning the action Defiance (tank stance) at level 10, a symbol will appear on the screen indicating when it is in effect. Defiance increases enmity gained from using other actions.

Upon learning the trait The Beast Within, the symbol which indicates the use of Defiance will change to also display the Beast Gauge.

The Beast Gauge displays a warrior's current amount of wrath, which is charged by executing certain weaponskills and by the ability Infuriate.

Wrath is used to execute actions such as Inner Beast, Steel Cyclone, Fell Cleave, Decimate, Chaotic Cyclone and Inner Chaos.

Simple Mode

Defiance (Active)

The gauge cannot be displayed in simple mode until learning the trait The Beast Within at level 35.
