The Great Big Guide to FFXIV Combat

Hopefully this video gives you some foundational knowledge of the basics and... not so basics of FFXIV combat. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask in the comments section and I'll do my best to clarify or answer! I will definitely have missed some stuff: if there's enough, I will cover it in a standalone video. My in-depth healer role guide will be releasing in a couple of weeks!
