Shots Fired: A Machinist Guide

[Griffeth]

Hi I'm trying out by mch and I see first post is last updated in july. Is this not affected by last patch and still good?

We have actually switched over to a google doc that I try to keep updated as new info comes in and gets tested. If we want to switch over to a new thread with the doc on the first page I am fine with starting it up, as long as people help keep it bumped and move people from this thread to that one.

The Doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...it?usp=sharing

Please see above. At this point I am tempted to start a new thread so people dont just read the first page of this one anymore. You guys ready to keep the new thread updated?

EDIT: New thread started. See the link here:

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...achinist-Guide

Points to the google doc at the top of the page. Also includes a TL;DR section with the most crucial info to be kept up to date (Opener, Rotation, Stat weight and BiS)

Don't know if it is possible or not, but maybe a forum administrator can do something about letting us alter the OP page.

If that was possible, that would be the preferable route as I do not want to lose all of the information and discussion we have had in this thread. But we have had quite a few people in the last couple weeks only referencing the OP and not looking through the last couple pages of the thread, so they are using out of date information.

I guess we can see what the Admins can do, otherwise we will need to move the discussion to the new thread that will be updated.

Anyone know what color Mide's Forager Vest is? Is it Metallic Silver? And can MCH even wear those boots? They're my favorite boot model in the game because they look the most realistic and simple, but I think they're Acolyte Boots which are DoM only



Also are MCH's esoteric goggles the only goggles in the game that you can /visor?

[Myon88]

It's probably metallic silver if anything.

I'm fairly certain those boots are not wearable by MCH - because I've been looking for simple thighhigh boots to glamour myself and I've probably trawled through our wearable list tens of times over. I don't recall seeing them at all.

have you tried adept's thighboots

Are those available on the Marketboard? Saw them for the first time today and loved the look of them. It says "all classes", but is it crafted only?

Stupid question, but why isn't using GB, then firing off Richochet/Gauss Round, then turning GB off a thing? If GB is 30% damage but takes away Autoattacks which are 30% of our damage, then the only point of GB is to use those two skills, right? So why aren't we out of GB and when GR/Richochet are ready, flick GB on and use them and flick GB off? GB is a 10s recast and is oGCD right? I mean we usually have downtime between GC once we burn our main cooldowns anyway...
