Pfffffffft skill>gear when you can solo 5 ep mobs at level 30.
Great guide though, but I fear it will just be a new place to start flames.
I've been playing for about 2 years now... How did I not know about <stal>?
Yeah, my noobishness is very apparent here, but THANK YOU!
Gear swapping is just how this game works. I'll admit when I first came to FFXI, my brain was still in table-top D&D mode, where swapping gear would cost entire rounds of turns, but even with the standard couple lines of macro default in-game, there's really no excuse not to do it. Thank you OP for this guide, it would've saved me a LOT of trouble 5 years ago, lmao.
stal and stpt do not work with f1-f6 and are therefore worthless.
You are correct, and I'm not very good at wording it clearly, but I figured it should be posted nonetheless. I've run into a lot of folks who do heavy gearswapping who don't know about it and I thought I'd try to spread the knowledge around. Also it's just a pain in the butt to have a bunch of gearswap macros next to each other and then the WS/JA/Spell on yet another, so this lets those who care know that yes they can indeed set things up so they just have to keep whacking the same button, rather than running all over their macro palette.
