Meditation: a nuisance to our community.

[Kanti]

This is more just a quality of life complaint, but the Meditation sound effect is incredibly annoying when you're building 5 stacks of Chakra after every single pull in a dungeon and in the field. Not only is it grating on myself, but I feel like a nuisance to my party who has to listen to me rev up for 5 seconds every pull.

Would it be possible to make Meditation give 5 full stacks when not in combat? The system itself during battle I don't have a problem with, just the act of building so frequently out of combat.

System > User Macros > New macro

/action "Meditation" <me>
/wait 1.5
/action "Meditation" <me>
/wait 1.5
/action "Meditation" <me>
/wait 1.5
/action "Meditation" <me>
/wait 1.5
/action "Meditation" <me>

I feel like I remember hearing somewhere that macros don't work in fractions of seconds, but this gets me to 5 stacks at least with one button click.

I had to turn party player effects down to 30 because I couldn't stand the sound when I play a Monk. Meditation should sound soothing or at the very least pleasing to the ears as it's name suggests. Game is literally unplayable.

The development team is actually planning to make adjustments to the sound effects for both Meditation and Form Shift, so please hang in there a bit while they work on this.

Oh thank you! Those are great news!
The loud sound effects are definitely annoying, but I also would like to see some attention regarding the 5-button spam "between" every single fight. Having to build 5 stacks "during" the actual fight is perfectly fine and understandable, no complaints here, but spamming it after every single engagement is getting tiresome and its even starting to hurt my fingers :/

Sound effect of Meditation

Good, you got an answer to your plea!
I've yet to start lvling my MNK but I've heard a lot about Meditation's sound effect being annoying.

Saddly I can't agree with your request of making it give 5 stacks out of combat. As a NIN, I could be in a party in a dungeon and so long my enemy list is clear I am not in combat, so I abuse my Hide skill to Trick Attack enemies my party is fighting once I killed my current target (by not AoEing at all) and save me a Ninjutsu spent on Suiton.

So, so long you dont hit more than one enemy, you could kill your chakra stacks, kill the monster, and use Meditation to give 5 stacks in one go before attacking the other mob.

Thanks for the info. The first time I heard it, it was "Oh what? Oh that must be the new MNK thing." After a few dungeons with MNKs, it was more "OK, you can stop now, I dont mind if the run takes a little longer..."

ive actually not seen this in action and i havent lvled a mnk yet
is there a vid of this?

Still don't like how everything except Elixir Field is directly or in-directly related to downtime... Especially the fact that you need downtime to use Purification (to build stacks), when you really want that TP when there's no downtime.

Still a nice fix though.
