I'm Crap and I Know it

[Maero]

I also agree with what others have said and do not say you are crap. You would be surprised by how many actual awful players are out there and have no dissabilities.
Scholar would for certain be a good fit for you i think and you could make macros for it

[Twilite]

Um okay. Sorry for your illness, wouldn't say you're 'crap' because of it....but anyway...Not to be rude but I'm not sure the point of this thread though...

MS is a degenerative disorder that pretty much erases the nervous system.. yet you just had to be cold right?

[Kallera]

Wait a minute...if you have all that, then how/why are you playing a summoner? Isn't that an additional hotbar?

[Stormfur]

I can understand your frustration. I don't have MS, but I am blind in one eye and very nearsighted in the other. This means I have the depth perception of a shoe and also that it's sometimes hard to gauge distances and such. I get told that I'm worthless, that I should just uninstall this game and go back to playing "Barbie Horse Adventures" and other such nonsense.

I look at it like it's their problem and not mine. I'm relying a lot on muscle memory and once I learn a fight, I'll never forget it. But there's no need to be so toxic. People seem to forget that we've got players here of all types and backgrounds who are dealing with their own "battles" beyond the game.

Damn, I hadn't even considered players with disabilities within my dislike of the game locking crafting and gathering behind MSQ in HW. Now I'm even more annoyed by it, on behalf of other people!

I wish you all the best of parties through the things you run

Have you considered pedals from flight sim controllers? I'm not sure how you would go about mapping them (I would assume they could just have a key bind mapped), but they could easily function as modifiers.

I saw you said that the orbweaver didn't suit you - which part? I bought a Logitech G13 and hated it (so much that I didn't use it for more than an hour) until on afternoon I sat down and really worked on it. Now I won't use anything else fore MMOs.

[JustaBard]

Wish you the best. I'd definitely party with you if you were on my server.

I have the same problem, it caused a lot of anxiety to the point that i play a lot less. Was enjoyable for a while as a Warrior but as time passed by my condition gotten worst and it's been harder to play.

Anxiety and having bad vision and people calling me a bad tank almost made me quit the game a few times, but it did make me quit being a tank and is preventing me from doing any coil/extreme or endgame content because i don't want my handicap to be the reason we can't clear it.

As a SMN you can use some macros, which won't affect your effectiveness that much.


You can use:

/micon Rouse
/ac "Ruin 2" <t>
/ac Spour
/ac Rouse

---> saved one button, just trigger it for buffing Egi

___________________________
/micon Tri-Disaster
/ac Tri-Disaster <t>
/wait 1
/pac Contagion <t>

&

/micon Bane
/ac Bane <t>
/pac "Aerial Slash" <t>

---> saved one click/press on contagion/Aerial slash

___________________________
/micon Fester
/ac "Ruin 2" <t>
/ac Fester <t>

---> weave Ruin2+Fester easily by spamming

___________________________
/micon
/ac "Eye for an Eye" <2>
/p (Eye for an Eye) on <2>

&


/micon
/ac "Eye for an Eye" <3>
/p (Eye for an Eye) on <3>

Place them on a horizontal hotbar, put it next to the grouplist next to player <2> (Tank) and <3> (O-Tank). Make the icons as big as possible, so you can click them or use any shortkey you desire.

---> saves you to change target to your tanks for applying this buff

You can also make a macro to tell ppl about your condition, you don't need to go much into detail there.

Just something like:

/p Hey there,
/p I'm struggling with a physical condition, so I may not be able to max out my class.
/p I'll do my best, but please have some indulgence.


I think many ppl would bear with you, screw those who don't.

Never forget the day a friend of mine that I was playing with on Lineage 2 for months told me he was a quadriplegic. After that I believe anything can be done.. Anything.
