On this page, you will find any job changes and skill updates forMachinist in Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker (Patch 6.58).

Listed below is all known information about the changes to the Machinist job in Dawntrail. Pleasenote that Square Enix has significantly overhauled jobs between showing them in the Producer Live Letter,Media Tour, and action trailer. All of the listed information is thus subject to change.

Listed below is a showcase from the Job Actions Trailer featuring a collectionof battle actions for Machinist.

Additionally, the following information was also revealed in theProducer Live Part 81:

• To allow easier heat managment Barrel Stabilizer will no longer grant heat, instead ifwill grant a free use of Hypercharge.
• Drill will now come with two charges. This grants us one extra usage per fight, allowsus to pool two uses for raid buffs, and allows for more flexible usage which would reduce the chance of driftingfrom a miss-timed Hypercharge
• Tactician will have its effectiveness increased from 10% to 15%. This goes for Bard and Dancer too.
• Second Wind will have its effectiveness increased an unknown amount.

(Please note: this is based solely on what we've seen from Benchmark Trailer, Job Action Trailer, and the PLL from today.We won't know more accurate information including potencies, etc... until Media Tour info comes out, and even then MediaTour numbers may be different than values in the Expansion when it goes live end of June. There could also be other changesto other Machinist actions that have yet to be announced.

In Endwalker, Machinist iterates on the full rework it received last expansion.It gains upgrades to existing skills and an extra charge of Reassemble. Itscapstone action is a new gadget that deals heavy damage in a line AoE.
