    While a horrible solution in general, you can literally macro that shit. Something like this:

    /ac "Fast Blade"
    /hotbar copy <syntax to copy Riot Blade macro from another hotbar on another class)
    /micon "Fast Blade"

    Create one for each required combo button, make combo finisher cycle back to combo starter.

    Downsides:
    - requires some macro knowledge
    - usual downsides of macros like no skill queueing
    - requires a fair bit of trigger discipline

    Upside:
    - budget workaround for nonexistence of XIVcombo (creates PVP style combos and puts certain logical abilities behind each other, like Ikishoten -> Ogi Namikiri -> Keishi: Namikiri)
    To be fair, I imagine that addon probably doesn't have the issues that macro have with its built in 1s delay. Some people just weirdly want the pvp style of pressing 1 button.

    Yeah that’s why he prefaced it with “horrible solution”

    I would never ever macro combat abilities like that together specifically for the internal 1s delay, but in theory it works. It’s not good, it’s a pretty big dps loss, but it works

    If that ever became the action standard in PvE content I'd just put all 3 copies of the button next to each other and treat it no different LMAO.
