While WoL was represented as a ranged DPS during 1.0, he ended his time in 1.0 as a Warrior. I’m not saying that Archer’s are trash, but I’m glad that his job eventually changed. To me he’s always been a melee character in the middle of all the action, not off to the side dealing damage from afar. It was also unexpected as I’m used to seeing him being a rough and tough sort of character. So let’s look back at the Warrior of Light’s extensive resumé.Īs a player who started in 2.0, the WoL’s job as an Archer is a little more forgetful. Since 1.0, the WoL (I’m making it a thing if it isn’t already) has rolled as a different job per expansion. Those familiar the Warrior of Light will know that being a Paladin hasn’t always been his job. The first trailer for Final Fantasy XIV Online’s next expansion, EndWalker, shows the Warrior of Light rolling as a Paladin.

While we’re all represented as Warriors of Light, Final Fantasy XIV Online uses a male Hyur in the promotional material and opening cutscenes. However, players have been referred to as such since the very first Final Fantasy game. Players were given this title more so after Bahamut caused the Calamity that was used as a transition between 1.0 and 2.0. IN the story of Final Fantasy XIV Online, players are referred to as the adventurer aka “Warrior of Light”.
