    Someone described the program he is waiting for as “trigganometry on steroids” so I assume it is a cactbot style program with more hand holding. I personally have never heard of this program until image 1 was released.

    Homie is just desperate to have his cake and eat it too, got so accustomed to playing the game with assistance but doesn’t want anyone to know.

    Imagine being unable to play the game without XIV combo.

    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)

    If only Square would finally rework macros, mouseover usage and party frames. Even just a horizontal party list would be a massive QoL change. Coupled with working mouseover with proper skill queuing they could strike off another plugin from their list.

    You're forgetting that Square Enix are a small indie company and unless we buy more mogstation items, they can't deliver this kind of content. Something like that anyway copium.

    Funnily enough, there is a plugin that lets you rearrange the party list elements massively, like stacking HP + MP on top of each other, rearranging where the job icon sits, etc.

    Also one with a much more comfortable mouse over without macro requirement.

    And also one that allows macro queueing.

    But don't worry, I am TOS-conform, I never used any it. *wink*

    You only know it from your cousin's best friend who has an uncle (who works at nintendo) whose coworker has seen a video of those plugins, right?

    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.
