[Suggestion] Consolidating Equip Macros

[Rosina]

Sharing what you thought you read in 14's forums...this is 11, they are two completely different games.

Did you miss that part?

they made by the same company and share similar developers....

and one is called 11 one is called 14. share the same name. Oh and they play the same...

The gear delay isn't intended actually there is massive lag based around server and engine confliction. Anything u do in game is lagged up.

Also gear isn't useless, if gear swap wasn't allowed in this game they would still make gear. What you call situational gear/ side grade. Would be for personal choices on how u play ur job. Ie like every rpg

like instead of having gear sets, you would have to pick and choose what style you would want pre battle. Do u wanna be a faster? or do you want to hit harder? do you wanna focus on ws dmg? or base weapon dmg?

atm with having gear sets we can have it all.. which takes out the choice and makes us 100%.

So you missed it. Again.

I know it's a stretch, but really look at them and try to think.

Also, take five goddamn seconds to look over your grammar.

And there are optimal ways to play jobs.
Let's use BLM for an example: It is optimal (with gear available) to nuke mobs who are resistant to physical damage; this is because of it's high native Magic attack bonus traits and INT. However, it also can reach high levels of cure potency and proficiency, if you gear it so. Would anyone ever invite BLM to an event to act as the main healer? No, not a chance in hell.

A good player (in Final Fantasy XI) will carry around various gear to mix and match as different "sets" to be swapped whenever the situation calls for it.

So please, stop referencing threads with irrelevant information about a game you know little about, in a thread for another game that you subsequently know even less about.

But adding to the discussion; we needed these consolidated macros a long time ago. It's really sad that you have to mash 3-ish macros to do anything effectively.

said threads are no longer viewable or I would. I was just sharing what i read

I DO NOT CARE EITHER WAY

or did everyone miss that part



and the only ones who think i am anti gear swap is you guys.
I choose not to do it to the extremies, never said you guys couldn't.

Big difference.

I never once said for SE to take out gear swaping from battle.

But do some basic logic.... as I tried pointing out. If SE was for gear swaping, why would ffxiv have 1) the ability to not do it in battle 2) a debuff when u switch gear.

When is logic going to apply?

But really i am just stating what i read and seen Made my opinion. But infact said i do not care either way.

I have a right to state my opinion for and against things. What I choose to do in game, how I choose to play shouldn't matter. I agree to disagree.

All i said was i do not think SE will do it.

If SE had problems with gear swapping they wouldn't have made it possible to make macros to allow you to do it. Shut up already about your stupid anti-lazy-gear-swapping comments.

care to share why gear swap isn't allowed in ffxiv during battles? or why there is a 30 sec debuff for switch armor? all se did was make macros and make gear, what you guys did was done on ur own... and i'm not anti gear swap or lazy..

anti gear swap would mean i want its removal. i have never said so. And infact.... made a great suggestion for gear swap. I also do get gear for my classes that i personally find good, or worth getting.

you guys should shut up already with ur elistist comments.... its stupid. Its just a game for mithra sake.


@ zerich lil fyi i have seen a few blms cure in events after being asked to so. infact it was quite common in parties on garuda during the whm strike of 2005. Also.. there is a difference in what ur saying.... magic staff + spel is common sence not really optima.

Ever wonder why SE didn't block gear swaps during battle in ffxi? or why ffxi doesn't have a 30 second timer cool down from swaps?

Could it be because they are two completely different games?

This just in: SE only intends you to play FFXI in black and white on ultra low resolution. They just put other colors and resolutions into the menu. They didn't want you to use them. derp.

all i stated was what i heard/read. nothing more I made a suggestion for you guys.... focus on that and less how i play... all u guys doing are proving top SE you take this game WAY to seriously if all u gonna do is insult a person who play the game differently.

you guys can't get over the fact that i do not enjoy how you play. But here is a big news flash.. you guys do not have to play with me. I have to limit my stress due to a heart condition. I found gear hunting stressful. I didn't find it fun. So why should i torture myself/ make myself sick for a game.

[Vivik]

care to share why gear swap isn't allowed in ffxiv during battles?

I will share. FFXI and FFXIV are two different games. Sure, they are made by the same developer but as pointed out already Toyota makes cars and trucks.

made a great suggestion for gear swap.

I will use the same line you love to use. That is a matter if opinion. I did not think it was that great of a suggestion.

you guys should shut up already with ur elistist comments.... its stupid. Its just a game for mithra sake.

I only think it's fair to say that most of the people on this forum are not so much elitist and just wanting you to stop giving people bad advice/suggestions, which is just a front for your campaign against gear swapping.

In all honesty I can respect your opinion and even look past your blatant inability to grasp basic game mechanics. But you flip flop facts for opinions entirely way too much. I would like to see you stick to your guns just once instead of hiding behind random illnesses and learning disabilities.

You guys worry too much on how I personally choose to play. And really need to stop. I'm not doing anything bad other then putting my 2 cents based around how SE is using common logic based on how each of their MMo is run.

but reality is i do not care. If this makes the game more fun for yall go for it.
I didn't say we shouldn't have it...

hell they should just transplanys ffxiv soon to be put in manaquin system which pretty much does what ur asking for.

Some ppl only see what they want to see so they can pitch a fit, ignore it, and move on. I understood what you where talking about in your first post Rosina. At no point did I see you say I hate gears swaps and there wrong wrong wrong. Just that they were never intended to work like that originally. I think that's what got everyone's panties in a bunch.
