[@drbiohazmat]

But what about MNK, SAM, WAR? also, wouldn't it end up likely making jobs like RDM and SMN bad with forcing a certain rotation for the one button loop?

[@KaguyaEne]

@@drbiohazmat XIVCombo doesn't exactly shove everything into a single button. It could do that, but you have the option not to with different forks of it. For example; in 1 fork Monk's empowered GCDs just go over their base and swap between them based on if you have stacks. Warrior would have 2 separate combo buttons with their specified ender and Samurai is whack in the sense that you almost always need every button but can be condensed into 3 core buttons with their combo ender. Something like Summoner would not care right now since it plays with a linear rotation anyway but there are way more fundamental problems with the job. It's consolidation by putting procs over spent (or weaker) abilities or spells, but to give a proper XIVCombo styled kit to most jobs there would have to be anywhere from 3-9 animations for basic combos and most GCDs will need a rework to divide a kits utility amongst the new combos.

[@TheMongral]

In further support of Xeno’s take for FF14 Combo, I’d like to point out his take _is literally how all the scions skills work in duties where you play as them._ When playing as Thancred, your first action is the standard gunbreaker combo, all three parts of it, on one button. When playing as Alisaie she has her jobs combos in single button combos. Ali has an aoe button and a single target button and you just spam each one as needed. If it’s fine for characters we sometimes get to play as, and functions identically to what we have access to, with the sole difference being “it’s less clunky”, then I fail to see why it’s not already part of the game. Additionally, I’d rather only need 1 button than 3 for a combo because as more content comes out, we get more and more buttons, so condensing some of the more Wrote stuff would make sense to avoid button bloat. Note: I’m not saying to do it immediately, mind you, basically every combo gets upgraded at some point while leveling, so simply tie the one button feature to when the full combo is upgraded, so that players still learn the combo, and why it’s important, while leveling, and then it gets simplified once they need to learn more advanced buttons relevant to their job.

[@cordeliacentauri1737]

So you want to homogenize and simplify jobs further? I've been playing this game for 11 years and my god this community really don't know what it wants.

[@TheMongral]

​@@cordeliacentauri1737 No. What I _Want,_ as I said at the end of my post, is for the Basic stuff to get sidelined once players have reached a point that they demonstrate an understanding of how important to their rotation those combos are is. Then, when said experience is sufficiently demonstrated (IE: by hitting level 50 or 60 in a job), _then, and ONLY then,_ does the basic combo become a one button combo so that the player can focus on managing their OGCD's, cooldowns, mitigations or damage buffs, positionals, fight mechanics, and all the other things one needs to manage during a raid/boss fight. This discussion is literally the reason why Xeno is right when he says nobody will want to raid without addons. There's so much stuff that players "must" do that they turn to addons to handle parts of it. Making the Easy stuff Easier when your character is more experienced, and introducing more complex class mechanics to utilize between those "easy combos" is a much healthier way to increase job complexity without overtaxing players. Let me be clear though: *I am Not advocating for the removal of the ability to use 1 2 3 for your combo.* I am saying that it should be possible to, via some method (perhaps make 123 mandatory the first time its used then make the one button combo a reward for finishing a damage rotation or something) simplify or provide additional interactivity to the action that, by the 50-60 range, should already be something you're bored of doing. To put it simply: What I want is for every button that _isn't_ part of the 3 button combos to feel impactful, or fun, or cool, or interesting, so that the combos are what I'm doing to GET to those cool, or interesting buttons, not the arbitrary gatekeeper that punishes me by not letting me have the cool or fun buttons just cause "oops, I accidentally pressed 3 because I fat-fingered it, well, there goes my rotation". If making 3 button combos "simpler" by converting them to a one button combo means everything else can be made more interesting, then Yes. Simplify it, but No, I am not saying "Homogenize it" I'm saying "Find a way to make this simple thing interactive". Chain more skills off those combos so that players have to decide what to do at the end of those 1 button combos. Like warriors 3 button combo, you can stack surging tempest for more damage, or you can heal. That's a simple combo with an interactive choice at the end, do you want more damage output or healing? More stuff like that is what I want to see, and less reliance on "1 2 3".

Artisan is a blessing upon us lowly ffxiv players who despise how long crafting takes. If I can craft something to 100% quality every time with macros ingame, the game should realize that and let me quick synth it after a while into HQ, IMO

[@naoaozora]

@@MysticLuka does Artisan allow you to do HQ quick synths?

[@honorfist]

​@@naoaozoraNo, but artisan allows you to fully automate the crafting process. Instead of having to manually click one or two macros for every craft, you can set a rotation to craft as many copies of an item (like food or pots). You can also create crafting lists to craft different items (for example a crafted set). Pretty much it allows you to craft anything in any quantity, it can even refood and repair your gear. You only need to set it up and let it do the hard work.

I saw someone say they use 14 combo for aoes, that does actually make sense, a button for 3 targets might aswell be condensed to 1 because you only use it in dungeons and fates ect but it's only reducing 1 button plus as a controller player, I put sprint on main hotbar and using the 2 hotbars I don't even have all my PLD skills on my bar.

[@Hoolagun]

Man, Noclippy and Engage timer should be part of the base game. Noclippy is not an "advantage", it just removes the disadvantage of high ping, and if everyone had it, it would be an even playing field. Engage timer is more than the countdown in the beginning, but a combat timer that starts when you attack something, to help you keep track of even and odd minute rotations. I personally would struggle to play some jobs that need to align/realign rotations without it.

[@vesperiadragon3221]

Coming from someone with medium ping, I only use act, and am happy for it. My game doesn’t break at patch, I don’t feel lost, I get to manually learn a fight and memorize through experience, and the graphics and my character look great to me. I can understand some of these, and can see the clip mod being necessary in high ping situations, but not for everyone and I couldn’t care less about the pixel mod. All this to say, I get to thoroughly enjoy extreme and savage content. So many of these do not need to be in the game.

I like using XIV combo on some jobs, but I pretty much only use it to put the 1-2-3 combo onto 1 button to save a couple slots. It can be pretty nice to save a couple slots. I've seen a lot of people acting like it plays the game for you, it really dosn't. Yeah their are like 3 variations of the mod and one of them is pretty bad, the fact we both have viper, and job skills being tied to the same button as other skills, I really dont see how xiv combo is that bad. I mean one of the options for GNB on it was putting sonic break on no mercy. And now thats an official option in the game.

[@FeralKobold]

In terms of xiv combo, I think it would be really cool and would make the classes have more depth if they (SE) had like, open chains. FOR EXAMPLE, in another mmo Flyff, you unlock abilities as you level right, but those abilities kinda look like puzzle pieces, some are starters, some are fillers and some are finishers, and you can put those abilities to make your own combos that go on one button. At least thats how it was like 10 years ago and it was fuckin sick. Being able to make your own combo with like 3 or 4 skills that were all on one button with a big finisher was dope.

[@Lewdology]

I am tired of Tome Capping and Leveling (even one other job besides my main). That's why I stopped playing the game (after about 2500 hours). The problem isn't that capping tomes is boring, it's the fact there are tomes you need to farm out with a weekly cap. After all, if the content is so easy you can auto battle it. Why is it even there? To waste your time while getting you to log in and give engagement metrics. This may not be a problem if you like upkeep online gaming, but after so many years I am actually just done with this kind of design.

[@jacobtridef48]

ngl cactbot for just basic callouts like "tankbuster" or "aoe" doesnt bother me, its like having a raid lead do super basic call outs. especially when doing fights, you havent done in years/months. but some people overly rely on it, and simply cannot play without it, and then i think it becomes an issue. ACR on the other hand, is a way worse offender in terms of mods imo.

[@Kamilohbk]

Cactbot is almost the same as having a raidleader doing callouts. But the callouts arent wrong, unlike RL's. Xeno thought that Cactbot shows you stuff, but it doesnt show much besides arrows. The plogon that is at fault of showing AOEs is Splatoon.

[@jacobtridef48]

@ that’s fair. I just don’t find cactbot nearly as egregious as ACR, or plenty of other plugins. Sounds like splatoon is a bit worse than Cactbot, imo tbh. Never met anyone who openly used splatoon, so had no idea what it did Ngl 😅

[@klabence]

Splatoon doesn't really do callouts, instead you can set it to show lines, circles, donuts, cones in the game world. Also, unlike bossmod, you can basically create your own assist features and don't have to enable all overlays. So if you don't want it to be too cheat-y, you could just make it show arrows instead, or don't show the easier mechanics. Also, it sometimes doesn't work properly, and you can't map everything. In other words, I personally find bossmod way too egregious compared to Splatoon. I haven't used Cactbot really, as I don't use ACT as I'm not interested in DPS, just not dying.

[@jacobtridef48]

@@klabence what exactly is the “bossmod” thing u mentioned? Excuse my ignorance, on that one.

[@Sayuameangkis]

XIV Combo is the great balance it doesnt put the full rotation on one button but puts your main combo and AOE combo. Heck certian new ablities for DT on all job now act like how XIV combo does it, if anything it looks like a moving forward direction to give new ablities while keeping button bloat down. Now WRATH combo will but your whole rotation on one button. When you see the difference in power and scope between the two you will never mix them up. Wrath combo puts everything to one button, XIV combo puts your 1 2 3 into 1.

[@TomRupert]

What does no clippy do?

[@Cat-sampo]

it assists high ping players to properly weave their abilities as if they didnt have latency issues

[@Navi_xoo]

The way FF works, if you have high ping it raises your animation ms as well. It makes it very hard to double weave and at some point single weave. Especially on jobs with 1.5-2s recasts. Noclippy reduces this so it simulates 40ms or lower i believe.

I think WoW on boarded a lot of people with addons to where it went from things like combining all of your bags into one window to having raid call outs over time. So using addons to make the game easier is just part of MMOs for millions of people. Old school (90s) MMO 'addons" were just hyper aggressive from the get go in terms of the power and were used in a much more competitive nature. Like ShowEQ or MacroQuest for EQ1 required esoteric knowledge to set up, ShowEQ in particular as you had to run it through a separate PC running dos, and just gave you god like knowledge/power in a game where raid bosses were open world and on 3-7 day respawn timers. The only other addon for EQ was WinEQ which allowed you to use EQ in windowed mode since it hardlocked you in full screen for like the first few years.

Most of the mods in the top are either just cosmetic mods, or minor tweaks that help you play easier, or just let you change client-side stuff. The second tier is more of the same really, but after that it gets in to the mods that are deliberately built to help you with raiding, doing stuff like callouts or putting extra indicators on screen or automatically moving you around, the more 'cheaty' side of mods. If you want a more in-depth explanation on specific ones feel free to ask, but more or less that is the general gist of the stuff that was ranked.

[@Irisfantasies]

Costmetics, ability to double weave on high ping (ff servers sucks ass), being able to zoom out a little more (or a hell of a lot more), QoL changes like ex.- hide the lock button of your hotbars so you don't accidentally press it, the ability to get a full timer (each second count), being able to see your hit box (dot), being able to change your titles to anything funny you want to, being able to see market board prices anywhere without having to be near a market board, play any orchestrion music on repeat if you want and create orchestrion playlists (override bgm), the ability to do mouseover without having to use a macro, dps counter, heads up display so you know what mechanic comes next and whats the solution, botting. thats it pretty much

I agree definitely on the XIV combo plugin. When you look at the samurai default, there are 2x3 hit combos, and 1x2 hit. All 3 share the same first attack, then branch from there. XIV combo turns 6 buttons into 3.

Of course now that I’ve played it a lot, I could do it without it, but I don’t want my hot bars bloated with abilities when I’m already using them in the same sequence. The only problem I see is the people who ONLY rely on it, and are essentially locked out from playing a class during patches. Don’t really care if people call it a skill issue or whatever, but id rather be comfortable on controller than not.

On todays episode, Xenos Actively tries not to immediatelt be hypnotized by the Glamorized, the pneumbra and Mare. May his soul rest in peaces after the mess he made.

Slippery slope like I keep tryna tell you maflaqqas

So basically console players are the only players we KNOW for sure that are non cheaters? I wonder how many console players were part of the world's first drama.

[@SujiMoraEN]

Technically console players can't cheat but allegedly they can ask people to cheat for them for instance act parses/logs in general and death recap. But I wouldn't know anything about that.

[@newbielolgaga]

no, you can use some external tools which I'm not gonna name on console to cheat too. But it is way more tedious to cheat on console than it is to cheat on PC. Still possible.

[@blazewardog]

There is actually a way to use xivAlexander on a PS4. You proxy it through your PC iirc.

[@JaquetaoSlayer]

You can use xivalexander on console but its complicated to set it up.

You would be surprised that the radar callout cheat boss mod has over 500k downloads atm which includes a auto rotation bot

Also, we really need to stop calling Addons & Plugins, Mods as a community. Completely different things and goes to show the understanding people even have about the topic using Mods as a blanket statement

[@NatiiixLP]

Well, it's a bit difficult because WoW incorrectly calls mods add-ons, and plug-ins are just another word mods, although the term "plug-in" implies that the base software with their support in mind (which most certainly wouldn't apply to XIV, but would apply to ACT plug-ins, for example). The only meaningful distinction between the terms is whether they directly modify the game or are attached to it without any intervention. WoW's add-ons are hooked directly inside the game and significantly _modify_ core UI elements, etc. If you modify the way the game behaves in any way, then it's evidently a mod. ACT, presumably, would be an example of a non-mod illegal extension of the game, since it seems to be read-only.
