    Anyone still using strategy boards?

    The use of the strategy board, as I recall from my experience in various duties, has been practically non-existent as of late. The current usage has been relegated to just people posting different kinds of memes. While that is funny to see, the strategy board itself seems to have become obsolete.

    What do you think should be added to strategy boards to make them more useful in raids?

    The main practical use I found for them is for you to make your own and have cheat sheets open on your screen during fights, something like this, where I can shrink down to like 60% and leave it on a corner.



    The ability to make and share your cheat sheets and for them to be something you can leave on-screen without any third party program is actually pretty great, but it isn't sharing strategies per-se.

    I haven't made any strategy boards myself, but I did have some non meme ones shared in ex trial learning parties I've been in recently.

    We've only had like 6 fights since they were added and I don't think very many are made for older fights, will certainly see them way more with Evercold and Kefka.

    Hoping for an update that let's us put specific strategy boards on our hotbar.

    Midcore is when you take a look at an Ultimate, nod along sagely to a guide and decide to do it when you get 12 months of uninterrupted vacation, which is to say: never.

    Yes. It's a very nice tool to do field notes during blind prog, or share with PF if someone has difficulties with certain mechanics. I made quite a lot of SB sheets during the latest raid tier when we were progging in PF. You can share memes too (wink wink).

    If the story is so good, why does story skip never leaves bestsellers of FFXIV Store?

    Something they could add that I think could be useful is using the Strategy Board as a method to choose positions for a fight. Like if someone shares a strategy board(or shows multiple boards at once) and everyone can pick a position like M1, H2 or MT. When you choose a position, it would highlight your position on every board to make it more clear where you'll be.
