In FFXIV, you can choose any character as your class. Different characters has its own properties with strengths and weakness. Some characters suits for party play and others may suits for solo play. And you are not limited to one type of character, so you can choose multiply so that you can play in group and with yourself. This article wants to tell how to choose characters in FFXIV and mainly talks about Warriors and Tank.

Tank is very challenging with decent rewarding. Tank is responsible for keeping enemy’s attention only fixed on yourself to ensure the security of your team members. As a Tank, you are committed to withstanding more damage than he weakly-attired healers and spell casters, and the melee hitters who like 'paper tigers' that will fall pretty quickly except that the enemy's attention is distracted from them.

While Warriors are quite limited. They are useful as DPS or Tank. It is the most difficult to solo play among all characters as they lack of self healing. But they can equip with the heaviest armor. If you want to solo play, you can run with a Tank and DPS and it is pretty much easier to find a dungeon group that way.

If you are Tanks, you need a GLA as your main tools to keep enemy’s focus attention on you. Hate, enmity and threat are your shield and sword. And Flash, Shield Lob and Provoke are abilities that Tank can acquire. These abilities can use for solo and combination. If you want to know how to make full use of these three abilities, please see below specific analysis.

Flash is definitely your main Hate generation. This can be used with your weapon skill combo. What you should keep in mind is that Flash is divided as a spell so it cost MP. In case you ran out of MP, it is suggested you should not spam. And there is a solution that you use the Fast Blade-Riot Blade weapon skill combo to restore MP. However, this combo is not so useful to generate Hate. If you want to get cheap FFXIV Gil, you can choose ssegold to buy cheap FFXIV Gil.

Compared to Flash, Shield Lob have great ability to generate a decent amount of initial Hate as a long range attack. Obviously, Shield Lob is to pull the enemy to you. As it has high TP, it is not recommended you waste spam repeatedly and not use regular attack while an enemy moves out of range. Tank usually use Shield Lob on the enemy you want to target first,
