I LOVED the Dragoon the "High Jump -> Mirage Dive" thing, but then they removed it, and i cried over the loss. I'm glad to have it back.

[@AzureKyle]

Honestly, I love this as a controller player, because it'll let me clean up my hotbars a bit more, and give me more room for other skills to be in better controller spots.

[@GingerPrimeTV]

Exactly! I think there is a lot of fear mongering going on, but this is a great feature and it needed to happen

[@BoomTownTTV]

@@GingerPrimeTV So if I want to have something like my DRK 123 combo on the A button only, would this allow for it? That would be heaven.

[@crunkulouss]

@@BoomTownTTV no this setting actually just separates abilities that share the same button like mirage dive or salted earth. so this setting increases the amount of buttons to set to your controller not decreases it

[@tiopapichulo2136]

Idk how anyone could not appreciate this change. A godsend for controller players but not only that they’re laying the groundwork for adding more abilities and keeping people’s UI from looking like WoW with a million icons on screen. They’ve already hinted and flat out said some things about how they’re trying to eventually add more individuality to each of the classes come 8.0 and beyond and this is just the prep work for that

[@Dajova]

Because people think more buttons = higher skill ceiling. they're delusional.

[@user-rw3gj3un5r]

This is so friggin' amazing. Consolidating important skills into a single button frees up so much bar space, leaving football fields of space for MORE abilities later on.

[@KagagiouX]

So whenever you're playing as another character, they finally gave us THAT set up. Good!

[@Loxly-ti4sq]

Now i might actually try controller again, this will definitely free up a lot of skills from dpad. I wonder how it would actually work on SAM though, it would be neat to collect 3 stickers with only 3 buttons but at the same time with meikyo shisui straight up needs you to only press the last skill from a combo.

[@TheQman69]

SE is trying to pull in aspects of a few mods that have existed for years for PC players. Glad to see it. SlothCombo is one of them. I play mostly on PS5 and hate keeping 3 buttons on my cross hotbars for single target combo, 3 more for the AoE combo. On some jobs I have to swap through 3 pages of buttons on PS5 and some are macro'd together which is highly un-optimal for things like oGCD weaving but I have to do it.

[@UltimaKeyMaster]

I love how one person whining about this change on Twitter was like "It takes skill to hit buttons." It takes skill. To hit buttons. Fucking lmao.

[@HeavenOnHigh]

so im guessing we are getting the combo system they "tested" in pvp? thank good i put my money on that theorie nearly 2 years ago wen they implemented it on PVP

[@ImpeccableZentertainment]

finally i wont have to use a plugin to get this done

[@Notme-rd2xz]

Will this work for gnb 123?

[@chrisanderson7820]

We are assuming it works for every class's 1-2-3 combo but will have to wait and see. Don't see why not though.

[@hikarih9859]

so basically what they alrdy do in pvp they do in pve now, good change

[@NERIFES88]

Thinking about this further, and looking at some reddit threads... I think this just does stuff like separates RDM's Scorch to it's own key, instead of replacing Jolt (like it used to be). Your basic melee 1-2-3 combos will still be separate keys. Hopefully it will do the thing with Mirage Dive though...

[@chrisanderson7820]

Only some mentally disturbed sweatlord would hate button consolidation, having lots of buttons isn't "skill expression", it's bloat. I'll be refining my whole hotbar day 1.

[@Erythnull]

Agreed.

[@GingerPrimeTV]

100% and that’s one reason why I was always confused at the backlash I would get because the bigger issue was all the skill pruning

[@KitKatNisa]

Preach!

[@olican101]

It was a mistranslation :(

[@KitKatNisa]

Anyone who sees this as a bad thing is a maximum sweatlord who cares way too much about being "the best".

[@youdontknowmegigna]

this wouldn't change anything about being the best. but it is in line with XIV's trend of simplifying as much as possible.
