the MSQ will take you there soon

#

if you have a hard time, there is an island that has a cave with kojin

proud willow Oct 3, 2020, 4:19 AM

#

Well, you can find the way down there (I think?) but just follow the MSQ

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 4:20 AM

#

the kojin will block you if you havent done the MSQ yet

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 4:20 AM

yes there's a way down through the island that the aetheryte is near

just keep doing msq

you'll almost there

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 4:22 AM

#

so in order to be back in novice network I need to be a mentor rigth?

#

how can I be a combat mentor?

patent citrus Oct 3, 2020, 4:23 AM

#

hmm combat is having 1 class lv 80 dow/dom, 1500 commendations

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 4:23 AM

well I got all of them but i haven't really begun ShB

patent citrus Oct 3, 2020, 4:23 AM

o_o

#

oh returning player?

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 4:23 AM

#

I have at least 10 classes at 80

#

no

patent citrus Oct 3, 2020, 4:23 AM

#

1500 commendations?

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 4:24 AM

#

1879

patent citrus Oct 3, 2020, 4:24 AM

#

oh maybe you haven't visit hall of novice? 🤔

#

impressive how can you get 1879 commendations without going through SHB ha ha

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 4:25 AM

#

you can be a mentor without finishing ShB?

gloomy mortar Oct 3, 2020, 4:25 AM

#

Does Cemi Jinjahl permanently disappear after you finish the Carpenter quest ? 😮

patent citrus Oct 3, 2020, 4:25 AM

#

I think so, I think I got mine just right before the end of post-SB

#

but mine is not combat, just trade mentor

#

combat requirement is much harder (the 1500 commendations thing)

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 4:25 AM

#

I like litearally started at the beginning XD

#

havent completed a ShB dungeon

patent citrus Oct 3, 2020, 4:26 AM

#

ohhh

#

wait

#

i get it now

#

i didn't mention the role job quest that's only available in ShB

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 4:26 AM

#

hmm that would explain it

patent citrus Oct 3, 2020, 4:27 AM

#

you needed to finish one of those first, so you need to reach ShB first

slate schooner Oct 3, 2020, 4:27 AM

#

Anyone have an alternative to ffxivhuntspath.com? It seems to be dead.

vocal shell Oct 3, 2020, 4:27 AM

you need to finish all 3 roles quests

oh damn, yeah you need to finish all 4

patent citrus Oct 3, 2020, 4:29 AM

i'm not sure shb was the fastest for me, probably will take 1 months or so yes

#

depends on the time you spend

SB is 2 months (tried to prolong it as possible)

#

is there a point in Sleeve Draw for AST

#

Also whats the point of "undraw"

twilit arch Oct 3, 2020, 4:33 AM

#

sleeve draw gives you a seal you don't have

#

so you can assure a 3 seal divination

#

and no, undraw can be tossed from your hotbar

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 4:34 AM

#

but "redraw" does that the seal thing?

twilit arch Oct 3, 2020, 4:34 AM

#

no

#

redraw doesn't assure you a seal you don't have

jade quartz Oct 3, 2020, 4:34 AM

Redraw just shuffles your current held card

**Sleeve Draw** : lvl 70 AST (180.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Draws a card (arcanum) from your divining deck.
You cannot draw an arcanum if you are aligned with its Seal of Arcana. When aligned with all three seals, any arcanum may be drawn.
Additional Effect: Restores 8% of maximum MP

usually I spam those 3 and I usually get my final seal at 3

Undraw is a completely useless button now ya

twilit arch Oct 3, 2020, 4:36 AM

lightspeed never did dmg

they just removed the mana reduction part of it

Question in terms of DPS which hits harder DNC or MCH ( I think most of the time I am outdpsing MCH for some reason)

patent citrus Oct 3, 2020, 4:39 AM

#

not sure, depends on the player

#

but isn't MCH a "selfish" class?

#

like no support skill or something

twilit arch Oct 3, 2020, 4:40 AM

#

in a vacuum, mch should be doing more dmg

jade quartz Oct 3, 2020, 4:40 AM

#

MCH does more damage but has no party buffs.

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 4:40 AM

#

Tactician

jade quartz Oct 3, 2020, 4:40 AM

#

That’s a role action

#

Those aren’t considered as all the jobs in that role have it so it’s not a point of comparison

#

But moreover, it’s not a damage buff

How hard is NIN this tier?

I want to be flexible, although I'll still be a tank main, NIN seemed to be the most obvious choice

#

is there a way to train out these stats to perfectly meet the requirement, or because I have mission affinity with both hyur and Au Ra, and my attributes are close enough, that i can clear this mission without having 275 tactical?

#

i'm guessing noone does squadrons, so i'm probably not going to get an answer cryingcool

faint flare Oct 3, 2020, 5:05 AM

#

Every requirement hit is a 33% success rate, with 2 being 66%

#

Flagged missions require all 3 met

ionic patio Oct 3, 2020, 5:06 AM

#

so being close doesn't mean shit?

faint flare Oct 3, 2020, 5:06 AM

#

No

ionic patio Oct 3, 2020, 5:06 AM

#

what about mission affinities

faint flare Oct 3, 2020, 5:06 AM

#

They primarily increase chemistries effect to be guaranteed to proc that effect

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 5:07 AM

#

@ionic patio there is a board

#

that could alter your squadron stats to get teh requirement

#

beside the elfman

faint flare Oct 3, 2020, 5:07 AM

#

Shifting stats would make them lose the first 2 requirements

#

As it takes some stats out of others

ionic patio Oct 3, 2020, 5:07 AM

#

do you think it's possible to do a training session that would make them meet all the required attributes? my current attributes are so close right now that I feel like any training session is going to kill my other two

faint flare Oct 3, 2020, 5:08 AM

#

You lose like 20 stats in the one you're not training

#

So you'll lose the first two hits

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 5:08 AM

#

well you can spam the XP training , as your squad level up, there stats also

#

it does not alter stats but give xp

sharp meteor Oct 3, 2020, 5:08 AM

#

where can i get accessories for level 66+ dow?

ionic patio Oct 3, 2020, 5:09 AM

#

so a squad member's attributes can't be changed? i just have to keep dismissing people and hope i can get a member for a mission?

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 5:09 AM

#

I never did that

faint flare Oct 3, 2020, 5:09 AM

#

Their stats are based on class and level

ionic patio Oct 3, 2020, 5:10 AM

#

ah, this other guy is confusing me

#

well, i guess i misinterpreted

#

so level ups do alter stats then?

brave ravine Oct 3, 2020, 5:10 AM

#

yea

faint flare Oct 3, 2020, 5:10 AM

#

Stat training adjusts the minimum floor you have if you had no people assigned

#

Level ups increase stats slightly

brave ravine Oct 3, 2020, 5:10 AM

#

every level sometimes gives a squad member +1 str/men/tac

ionic patio Oct 3, 2020, 5:11 AM

#

i wonder if i should just grind out command missions with them to level them up instead of trying to do squadron missions

faint flare Oct 3, 2020, 5:12 AM

#

Do both really

#

Send some out on missions then run dungeons with the rest

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 5:12 AM

I got most of them to 60 by sopamming this

#

📎 Comphrehensive_training.png

ionic patio Oct 3, 2020, 5:13 AM

#

yeah but you can only do those 3 times in one day

#

and they give kinda pitiful exp

#

even the level 1 squadron missions give more exp

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 5:14 AM

#

u can try to send them out

faint flare Oct 3, 2020, 5:14 AM

#

You can do both at once

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 5:14 AM

#

you have a 2/3 change of success

#

I mean I get lucky most of the time even if I didnt meet the requirements

ionic patio Oct 3, 2020, 5:16 AM

#

also, for command missions, do squad members only get the EXP from completing the mission, not from each enemy? basically, can I speedrun the dungeon and get good EXP for them or should i kill every enemy

BLM disrupts cst times

brd involves a lot of precise weaving

so having bad ping would feel very bad

bitter pivot Oct 3, 2020, 5:38 AM

#

Hmmmm, bummer. I'm trying to pick something ranged since it seems like I have to get out of aoe markers a full second or so before they look like they hit my screen to avoid damage

jade quartz Oct 3, 2020, 5:38 AM

#

That’s how AoEs work

crisp ether Oct 3, 2020, 5:38 AM

#

DNC maybe?

vapid veldt Oct 3, 2020, 5:38 AM

#

when the orange disappears, it usually snapshots

#

not when the animation happens

jade quartz Oct 3, 2020, 5:39 AM

#

Damage is calculated just as the cast bar ends/orange area of ground disappears

warped nest Oct 3, 2020, 5:39 AM

#

The other side of the coin is you can move into AOE animation to avoid other AOE

bitter pivot Oct 3, 2020, 5:39 AM

#

For me when the orange area is like 1/2 full I need to be out to avoid damage consistently

jade quartz Oct 3, 2020, 5:42 AM

What do you mean by lag

brave ravine Oct 3, 2020, 5:43 AM

#

you may be witnessing skills that have delayed effects. WAR attacks usually land about 1sec after activation

elfin edge Oct 3, 2020, 5:43 AM

#

like I can push a button for a skill before the gcd display finishes

jade quartz Oct 3, 2020, 5:43 AM

#

The game functions on an approx 0.7s delay for damage snapshotting and other similar stuff

#

That’s just queueing

elfin edge Oct 3, 2020, 5:43 AM

#

and the skill will run after the gcd completes

#

ah

jade quartz Oct 3, 2020, 5:43 AM

#

That’s by design

#

Heck that’s the opposite of lag

elfin edge Oct 3, 2020, 5:43 AM

#

I've gotten used to it, but wasn't sure if it was just my network or something heh

jade quartz Oct 3, 2020, 5:44 AM

#

10ms ping is insanely good

#

Most players, outside of Japanese players on Japanese servers, could only dream of that

#

You must live close to Sacramento

elfin edge Oct 3, 2020, 5:44 AM

#

yeah I'm in silicon valley

jade quartz Oct 3, 2020, 5:46 AM

#

Count yourself lucky then

elfin edge Oct 3, 2020, 5:47 AM

#

okay so basically there is a built in delay then; I think then the only unexpected lag I had before would've been when the server was packed but that was more like sporadic, like in the middle of a fight

jade quartz Oct 3, 2020, 5:49 AM

#

Well the gcd queueing thing isn’t even a delay

#

It’s QoL and efficiency

to be fair for the longest time I thought flank was butt since I saw at the butcher shop the flank is always at the ass
@fast hull at a butcher flank would be like thigh of the back leg. rump would be the butt

Is the best way to level tank just grinding dungeons?

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 6:25 AM

Question:
For wolex, if it's PF and Partners for everything, it should be TH Cardinal and DPS Intercardinal, and TH rotate Clockwise for Intercardinal Mechanics and DPS rotate counter clockwise for Cardinal Mechanics right?
Like for Double Mage Towers, if I'm SE DPS I should grab E Tower with E Healer?
@ripe hound depeds on how they decide it but yes more or less

Leveling Guide for Alt jobs 🍻

Level 1 to 70 in five days (Stormblood)

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 6:25 AM

#

basically do your roulettes first

plain python Oct 3, 2020, 6:26 AM

#

worth to put a Doton during boss?

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 6:26 AM

#

sort of?

#

its good in the prepull if you can get a hide reset off

severe tusk Oct 3, 2020, 6:26 AM

#

Ahhh. I hit 80 early in shadow. Took a Detor to level up dol/doh. Now I'm leveling gunblade to finish shadowbringers for xp

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 6:26 AM

#

depending on the boss, if he runs araound not worth it

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 6:27 AM

#

if you can pull a boss into it

#

its fine

#

but if you have to drop it on the boss

#

meh

plain python Oct 3, 2020, 6:27 AM

#

is there difference between pull it in and drop on boss?

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 6:28 AM

#

pulling the boss in means you can use hide

#

hide resets your mudra charges

#

means you can fit more mudra damage into your trick attack window

#

in dungeons i wouldn't bother

#

but in trials/raids if the tank will cooperate

#

its definitely better to do a prepull doton

#

its like a small dps gain

#

if someone got dismissed in a dungeon is it safe to leave?

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 6:42 AM

#

leaving needs 15 miutes without penalty

#

I think that is abandon

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 6:42 AM

#

if someone else leaves first

#

you don't get a penalty

#

but if you're first you get the penalty

#

30 minutes iirc

glad comet Oct 3, 2020, 6:56 AM

@cosmic token if you want me to be honest, generally, dungeons dont need a guide. They're pretty accessible even if you're new

cosmic token Oct 3, 2020, 6:57 AM

well sometimes I find myself in situations, such as haukke hard, where I was doing too much dmg, which I didn't know could be an issue lol

cosmic token Oct 3, 2020, 6:58 AM

e_e not my point, still even if just for trials and such, I'd like to be able to open up some written guide to be able to look at when I need to, rather than open up a vid and be listenin for minutes to like "heyall, I'll be your guide for today"

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 6:58 AM

well the dungeons there are the building blocks of other dungeons that made them great

glad comet Oct 3, 2020, 6:58 AM

#

There arent really that many guides, if you want me to be completely honest.

#

There is Mizzteq

#

but that was when the dungeons were 'on content'

fast hull Oct 3, 2020, 6:58 AM

#

I personally watch MrHappy's videos

glad comet Oct 3, 2020, 6:59 AM

#

meaning, in 2020, you could skip certain mechanics

#

this goes for ARR & HW trials as well

#

There are some things you can take from it

#

but generally, they're not so bad.

cosmic token Oct 3, 2020, 7:00 AM

#

idk, I watched some video guides and besides them having a different flow and being in video format, they just take longer than glancing at text for 10s to read what a mechanic does and what you're supposed to do

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 7:01 AM

#

some of the older dungeons do have a consolegameswiki page

#

with some of the mechanics listed

glad comet Oct 3, 2020, 7:01 AM

visual reading guides are extremely rare

omega is way past heavensward

you've got about 80 post base game quests to go

Oh I am the big dumb

I did mean to say Ultima weapon I just had the names mixed

2.4-2.5 are a prologue to heavensward

with sections of east shroud western thanalan southern thanalan and outer la noscea that have mid 40s

you can alternatively try to get the adventurer in need bonus

a decently sizable amount

i got a lot of my early seals from turn in quests o:

#

theyre good exp too

#

for crafters

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 7:28 AM

if you got crafter and gatherers

#

supply/delivery missions also award seals

#

hq items awarding double seals and exp as well

wicked blade Oct 3, 2020, 7:29 AM

#

mood it's soooo good

#

like 2-3 whole levels

i think once i got 54-58 in one go

you've been blessed by the 5.18 crafting changes

wicked blade Oct 3, 2020, 7:29 AM

was it rough before grandpa

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 7:29 AM

#

there was a leveling order to the crafters to get the correct cross class skills

#

and exp wasn't as plentiful

wicked blade Oct 3, 2020, 7:30 AM

#

i am doing all my crafters at the same time so it's nbd but that sounds like yikes still

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 7:30 AM

#

overall the changes were a good thing

#

doh-dol got huge exp buffs in everything

#

even if you don't do your class quests right away

#

you can wait until lvl70

#

and just outgear it all

#

and still get a lot of exp out of it

dry jolt Oct 3, 2020, 7:31 AM

#

Is there a good reason to go back and unlock guildleves in low level zones?

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 7:31 AM

easily 70-73 with just the stormblood class quests

@dry jolt only if you want to do them. some of them might be used in the a realm reborn relic weapon requirements

but otherwise not really

narrow vale Oct 3, 2020, 7:54 AM

#

how long does it take to go from 1 to 50 in PoTD?

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 7:54 AM

#

i always forget how u do the whisper command in text. anyone help?
@untold sand /r or /tell

untold sand Oct 3, 2020, 7:54 AM

then name and server i guess

yes

#

Can I make a macro for using 1 button in hotbar for 2 different actions, that depende on which previous actions I used?
@wheat plume sounds like you're trying to do a sequence macro

#

don't use that for combat purpose

#

how long does it take to go from 1 to 50 in PoTD?
@narrow vale if you have a group of friends it can be done in the better part of an hour

#

and khell you can't also have hte macro change depending on what you used previously

#

macros suck for a purpose here to reduce botting

wheat plume Oct 3, 2020, 7:56 AM

#

yes, I want to use for my Dragon
True Thrust > Vorpal Thrust > Full Thrust
and
True Thrust > Disembowel > Chaos Thrust

I want to put Full Thrust and Chaos Thrust in the same button, but that the action used depends if last action was Vorpal Thrust or Disembowel

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 7:57 AM

#

100% don't do this

#

nor will you be able to

#

macros don't do non-whole second wait intervals

#

and they aren't complex enough to execute what you want

Why you shouldn't macro your GCDs

Macroing GCDs adds up to lost casts overtime, significantly harming your potential.

#

@little swift I just wanted to use less buttons, but ok thanks

#

what is GCD ?

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 7:58 AM

#

gcd means global cooldown

#

basically when you use 1 skill

#

all the other ones that share that cooldown

#

can't be used

#

you have to wait until the gcd rolls through before you can hit the next one

wheat plume Oct 3, 2020, 7:59 AM

#

Yes, I know that, but I just wanted to use less buttons.

#

I know I have to wait, that was not my objective

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 7:59 AM

#

and no there's no way for you to prune out your buttons

wheat plume Oct 3, 2020, 7:59 AM

#

Ok

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 7:59 AM

#

you asked what a gcd was

uncut pendant Oct 3, 2020, 7:59 AM

how do i reply to pink text messages? i right click to send tell but it says something along the lines of cant find the player

wheat plume Oct 3, 2020, 7:59 AM

#

you asked what a gcd was
@little swift Thanks

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 7:59 AM

#

and your combo is going to continue to change

#

you'll also need to weave things in

#

macros won't let you do that

wheat plume Oct 3, 2020, 8:00 AM

#

Do you have a macro tutorial? I want to understand it better. How it works.

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 8:00 AM

#

how do i reply to pink text messages? i right click to send tell but it says something along the lines of cant find the player
@uncut pendant is that person is your server, are they online?, did they go into an instance

#

those are all reasons why you might not be able to reply

#

maybe they have themselves set to /busy

#

which blocks replies as well

uncut pendant Oct 3, 2020, 8:00 AM

#

@little swift other server same data center

patent citrus Oct 3, 2020, 8:00 AM

#

I need help on these "role-playing" quests

other server would be a reason why oyu can't send tells

how are they able to message me tho

wheat plume Oct 3, 2020, 8:02 AM

#

@little swift what are they doing in the youtube video of macro gcd, What is the macro doing exactly ?

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 8:02 AM

#

the macro is delaying the persons next cast

#

because it doesn't queue like a regular skill does

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 8:03 AM

#

overtime as more casts are being made, more time is lost

#

because the macro cannot be used in non-whole second intervals

#

its basically a side by side comparison of what happens

wheat plume Oct 3, 2020, 8:04 AM

#

because the macro cannot be used in non-whole second intervals
@little swift What's a "non-whole second interval"
I'm sorry for the question, I'm noob

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 8:04 AM

#

you end up seeing how much slower it is to use a macro

wheat plume Oct 3, 2020, 8:04 AM

#

And what's written in that macro exactly?

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 8:04 AM

#

whole seconds would

#

1, 2, 3, 4

#

whole numbers

#

non-whole

#

1.5, 2.3, 3.6, etc

#

your gcd isn't a whole number

#

its got decimals

#

!action true thrust

zinc orbitBOT Oct 3, 2020, 8:05 AM

#

**True Thrust** : lvl 1 LNC DRG (2.5 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Delivers an attack with a potency of 290 .

※Action changes to Raiden Thrust when Raiden Thrust Ready.

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 8:05 AM

#

2.5 is the base for most skills

#

how do i avoid using the pet hotkeys
@patent citrus iirc you can hide those in char config

wheat plume Oct 3, 2020, 8:06 AM

#

Ah, so the macro is , like saying

Do action A
Wait whole-qty of seconds
Do action B

Right?

@wheat plume in the case of the video its do action A again but yes you're understanding how they've implemented it

patent citrus Oct 3, 2020, 8:08 AM

#

yeah the problem is i need to click it manually by mouse

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 8:08 AM

#

what you're trying is what you've typed out though

wheat plume Oct 3, 2020, 8:08 AM

#

And they're mashing the macro, or holding the button?

patent citrus Oct 3, 2020, 8:08 AM

#

i always fail the first time in a quest like this, it's so hard to control

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 8:08 AM

#

they're mashing it

#

because they want it to go off at the next physically possible opportunity that the game will allow it

Aye how long would it take to get from level 30 to endgame?
@violet isle many more hours to go. you've essentially gotta play through 3.5 more whole games

wheat plume Oct 3, 2020, 8:09 AM

#

because they want it to go off at the next physically possible opportunity that the game will allow it
@little swift even if macros could do non-whole seconds, the delay between mashing because finger movement would do that inefficient.

something like 200 hours total to play through just MSQ and required job/class quests?

#

maybe more or less depending on how laser focused you are about that

#

from start to finish

violet isle Oct 3, 2020, 8:13 AM

#

Is that w/ all the expansions too or do those take longer?

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 8:13 AM

#

this is with all the expansions

#

i don't think anyone has a comprehensive exact time

#

but given that each expansion and then base game would be about a full size jrpg

#

about 50 hours each would be a solid estimate

violet isle Oct 3, 2020, 8:13 AM

Yeah tru, it’s definitely a thing based on playstyle

#

dragoon doesn't continue to share gear with tanks past 50

#

but you can consider their armor heavy armor

hey, i was told by someone when they have this role-play quest, they use hotbar 1?

how do i do that?

why i'm using my pet hotkeys (i have to use mouselick to use the skill)

#

I think in the beginning yes 🤔

#

but you can see which stats benefit healer and which one isn't

#

like intelligence i think is reserved for magical dps, healer use piety(?)?

#

easy way out is to just click the recommended gear button

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 8:28 AM

patent citrus Oct 3, 2020, 8:28 AM

#

dummies are available at the first map you visit from any of the main cities

#

so limsa > middle la noscea

#

gridania > central shroud

#

ul dah > western thanalan

#

you could also go to someones house and borrow their dummy

#

in char config there's a setting to replace hotbar 1 with pet hotbar

@narrow vale usually emotes are specific characters only

@slate crow do you mean once both materia are in and you mouse over the item?

the dimmer one is a lower grade materia

@sinful mist what's the difference in being in a big or a little fc?

so when you get 2 different pieces again just add them together and see if it gives you more than the hooded gown

Big FC can be easy to get people to do raids and stuff with. But they can get busy and are not so personal some of the time.
Small FC have less people so less people that can do stuff with you, but can be very personal and nice

@patent citrus is the only difference size and price? And is only for decoration or something else?

If displacement would kill you, generally.

#

Like sending you off the edge of the arena

stable herald Oct 3, 2020, 8:57 AM

#

Ah. so displacement is the more commonly used. Alright.

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 8:57 AM

#

or you know a mechanic that needs you to be close is coming

#

displacement does more damage

stable herald Oct 3, 2020, 8:57 AM

#

Im barely understanding the proper RDM rotation

#

As is.

obsidian patio Oct 3, 2020, 8:58 AM

#

Engagement also has the advantage of letting you double-weave with it.

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 8:58 AM

#

basically slam those on cooldown

stable herald Oct 3, 2020, 8:58 AM

#

I THOUGHT it was build mana to 80, close in, melee, jump out

wheat plume Oct 3, 2020, 8:58 AM

#

Is GCD 2.5 seconds by default always ?

stable herald Oct 3, 2020, 8:58 AM

#

Then use acceleration or manafication alternatively to rebuild and redo melee

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 8:59 AM

#

its 2.5 unless you have skill speed/spell speed to reduce it

#

or you're black mage and have cast times longer than that

pine bluff Oct 3, 2020, 8:59 AM

#

hey guys is the moogle tomestone of law thing still going?

#

can I still get a reveling kamuy

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 9:00 AM

#

I THOUGHT it was build mana to 80, close in, melee, jump out
@stable herald this wouldn't work because you'll have displacement and corp-a-corps come off cooldown before you get enough mana

#

you should just use them off cooldown

#

its free damage

obsidian patio Oct 3, 2020, 9:00 AM

#

Tomestone of law event is over. You get the reveling kamuy the normal way from Susano Extreme

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 9:00 AM

#

manafication resets teh cooldown of them too

stable herald Oct 3, 2020, 9:00 AM

#

@little swift Yeah, i think i got that habit from the way they sorta implied it was to be done

#

rather than the optimal way, so to speak

patent citrus Oct 3, 2020, 9:01 AM

#

in what situation should I use aetherpact (scholar skill)?

obsidian patio Oct 3, 2020, 9:01 AM

#

The only exclusive items from the Moogle tomestone events are the 100-cost items

pine bluff Oct 3, 2020, 9:01 AM

#

mm ok

wheat plume Oct 3, 2020, 9:01 AM

#

If macros are wrong for rotation because wait is whole seconds and GCD is 2.5, can I use macro for 1st and 3rd action of the rotation with <wait.5> and put the 2nd action manually?

obsidian patio Oct 3, 2020, 9:01 AM

#

@patent citrus when a single person, like the tank, is taking consistently high damage.

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 9:02 AM

#

just don't use macros for gcd combat

obsidian patio Oct 3, 2020, 9:02 AM

#

Macros are still bad for rotation since they don’t natively queue into the GCD

#

You always lose uptime with them

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 9:02 AM

#

and wait.5 is 5 seconds

patent citrus Oct 3, 2020, 9:02 AM

#

ok so should i just macro it to tank then

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 9:02 AM

#

you won't be able to queue the other action

pine bluff Oct 3, 2020, 9:02 AM

#

are there any other events like the moogle one where you can get mounts?

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 9:02 AM

#

because you're using another skill in between

Why you shouldn't macro your GCDs

@elder matrix not to my knowledge no

#

that won't even make your life better

you're literally making the game harder to play

because this doesn't account for downtime and times when your macro fails

I understand it could but wrong, andobviously you know about the game more than me, but the reason for not doing with 2 consecutively actions doesn't apply for 1st>3rd
Is there a reason for it to be wrong with 1st>3rd ?

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 9:08 AM

#

because this doesn't account for downtime and times when your macro fails

obsidian patio Oct 3, 2020, 9:08 AM

#

You’d have to precisely time the use of the 2nd action for it to properly execute the 3rd on time

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 9:08 AM

#

you're assuming you'll get your 2nd action off at all

#

to be able to chain the third correctly

obsidian patio Oct 3, 2020, 9:08 AM

#

At that point just do your rotation normally

little swift Oct 3, 2020, 9:08 AM

#

and get the combo bonus

#

macros will fail

#

they're designed this way because they don't want people to not play the game

wheat plume Oct 3, 2020, 9:09 AM

You’d have to precisely time the use of the 2nd action for it to properly execute the 3rd on time
