    Don't use a chart for Construct 7, really...

    So I see people starting to make charts on how to handle that substract mechanic...

    In all honesty, please try to understand the mechanic instead of using charts... it is nothing hard.
    And also, because instead of helping, it looks like charts are actually making people even more confuse on how to handle said mechanic.

    You do realize simple math can be a challenge for most people now a days. With out an app they are lost.

    Hope the "chart" includes a "guide" for healers on how to heal the party back to full health before the raid wide AoE that comes afterwards. It's unacceptable for folks to die after successfully doing the mechanic because of not getting topped off.

    Embarrassing.

    Along the same lines as this... the damage afterward is a real kick in the balls. I did the mechanic just fine, but my healers are dead because they can't do math. Great. Goodbye cruel world.

    Who cares what other people do? If they feel like using charts, guides or even triggers, how does that impact you?

    I'm gonna wait a few weeks until I try this. I have a learning disability and never learned anything past multiplication and even that is a bit difficult for me. Luckily, I have someone who can help me with this when I do try it.

    Consider, perhaps, that the charts may be helpful for people with dyscalcula, a learning disability, a language barrier, or simply issues doing math while multitasking. It's best to figure out how to do the mechanic properly if you can, but if others need a chart, that's not hurting your performance.

    Here's the said chart : https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comme...chart_instead/

    Frankly speaking, I doubt it'll help more than trying to do the math.
    I don't know how severe can dyscalculia be, but is it so bad that you'd get stuck with 1 digit numbers calculations ?

    As for multitasking, boss isn't attacking, so you have like 10 second to place yourself. If they have trouble calculating, may be they should stop DPS and focus on the mech ?

    Biggest problem with a chart, is that you need to get your eyes out of the game to check it.
    Also, if you already have trouble doing 1 digit maths, I really doubt a chart is going to help.
