Best part of a new patch? Third party tools not working.

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?

Buddy of mine says he uses them because he can't be assed to remember 10 years worth of content, 100+ trials/dungeons/raids etc, especially in EX and above. He knew the mechanics when they were relevant but has since moved on to current stuff.

The callouts are just a little verbal thing that helps his brain remember. And you know what? I can't fault him for that. This game has a massive backlog of content that you could be thrown into if you do the roulettes regularly.

Doesnt your buddy understand that he is singlehandedly causing the downfall of the entire game, the entire genre even??????????

Yeah, his friend is killing the game. It's his duty turn him over to the nearest law enforcement agency.

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)

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.

I present round 2

I sure hope that's satire. If not...That's equal parts funny and sad.
