Major Pictomancer Job Changes Appear in FFXIV 7.2

Square Enix updated the 7.2 Final Fantasy XIV preliminary patch notes, and among the many job changes and adjustments are updates for the FFXIV Dawntrail Pictomancer class. 25 of the role’s actions will get updated. Coming in at a close second are the Black Mage and Thaumaturge, with 24 action adjustments in FFXIV 7.2. The Dancer, in third, only will end up with 19 changes. 

In the case of the Pictomancer, the FFXIV job changes mostly tend to involve a mix of potency buffs and nerfs in 7.2. So while Fire in Red gets increased potency, for example, Mog of the Ages is reduced. One of the changes is only cosmetic as Starry Muse will be simpler when “Show Limited” is set in options. 

Here’s the full list of those official FFXIV job changes present in the 7.2 patch notes:

While these are some of the most extensive adjustments for the Pictomancer in FFXIV recently, we’ve seen job changes for the class before. For example, immediately in 7.01, there were some Aetherhues and Subtractive Palette updates. There were also alterations to the Hammer Motif, Pom Motif, and Starry Sky Motif abilities in 7.1.

Final Fantasy XIV and its Dawntrail expansion are live for the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC, and the FFXIV 7.2 patch and job changes will be live on March 25, 2025.
