Is there anyway to use a /hotbar command to assign macros? I might have to use one of these redundant pet skill macros but I would like to reassign the skills to certain keybinds depending on pet.

**chichicha** · 2014-07-12 04:00

Contagion macroicon has gone as well...

**Niiro** · 2014-07-12 11:00

Works fine for me, are remembering to put pet at the end?

/micon "contagion" pet

If there's a way to do it I don't know of it. It's why I cram Eos and Selene skills in one button sometimes (see second post).

**Neon_Sea** · 2014-07-12 11:33

Yeah not sure how, I just have the 3 skills I use from Smn pets off to the side and drag them to the button on my hotbar depending on what I'm doing.

So some theorycrafting on accuracy SCH.

Comparing to a set with HA weapon and full i110 as a baseline:
MND 567, Acc 405

The old accuracy standard(?), replacing head/belt/hands/feet with i90 crafted (head/feet/hands dropping to i90 is -6MND, +16acc apiece. belt dropping is -5MND, +12 acc, total -23 MND +60 acc), gets you
MND 544, Acc 465

If you instead keep those i110 pieces and do full i90 right side (stat drops are same as belt x5, so -25MND, +60acc), you get
MND 542, Acc 465

Same accuracy, but you end up with more VIT on the on the left side (for what that's worth) as well and potentially a lot more secondaries. If you opted to also include one of head/hands/feet i90, you'd hit 481 acc without food. Is (buttons, -6MND) better than cabbage?

**Spider-Dan** · 2014-07-13 14:25

Buttons are 16DET/10CRT, cabbage is 21ACC/9CRT, so they aren't really comparable.
Did you mean deviled eggs (24CRT/10ACC)?

**Seravi Edalborez** · 2014-07-13 14:27

No I meant is taking the head/hand/feet (one) drop from i110 to i90 and eating buttons better than keeping the i110 and eating cabbage.

edit: I derped out, thought you needed 480 acc but it's only like 470. So you could just eat eggs period with i110 left, i90 right.

Old BiS: Hands/Waist/Feet

You can use an accessory in place of waist for more critical hit rate.

New BiS(Maybe, this honestly seems like a wash from a DPS standpoint): Hands/Ring/Feet

If you use four accessories, you drop 3 MND and 15 DET for 8 CRIT, 10/16 SS, 14 VIT, and 8/2 PIE. From a DPS standpoint, the Hands/Ring/Feet is better than using four accessories. The reason you see two numbers for SS and PIE is because you have a free slot on the hands that can go towards either stat (Though the PIE seems to be the obvious choice here imo).

Hands/Ring/Feet: http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/N3QL

Four accessories: http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/N3MU

Edit: Those melds are cheap, so you can gain 3 CRIT extra with accessories.

**Seravi Edalborez** · 2014-07-13 19:12

Yeah I seem to have been under the mistaken impression you needed 480 acc, not 470. So I'm dumb.

Nice that I won't need to make all those accessories after all then.

**Shaano** · 2014-07-14 01:59

Hit 110 over the weekend, acc ended up being 490. Should I care or not give any fucks.

**Seravi Edalborez** · 2014-07-14 02:15

SMN does need the slightly higher for Garuda. You're find I'm pretty sure. Been using this as a guide:

Spoiler: show

**Shaano** · 2014-07-14 02:37

Yeah I knew 491 was "the number" but if it's life or death I don't think so?

**Seravi Edalborez** · 2014-07-14 02:51

1 under is probably fine. You'll miss like 1 Wind Blade in 100 or something insignificant.

**Niiro** · 2014-07-14 11:31

Aren't Ifrit and Garuda's caps different?

It's actually less than 1%. I'm running 490 Acc too, and my Garuda hit rate on T9 the other day was 98.86%, it only missed 4 attacks of 440. I got the other day Scylla's feet, and with those I'm at 485 acc. Tomorrow or when I can do T9 again, I'll parse to see what miss rate that 6 less points in acc do.

An issue wherein players were unable to use pet actions when a pet was casting a spell.

yay

**Shaano** · 2014-07-15 13:00

How bad for a SMN :s I knew 350-370 was "great" when i was attempting to clear T8, but now that it's on farm and all the welfare sands/oils this is at i110. I'm sure there is a lot I could of done differently

edit: guess what jobs people do is another thing :s Popping every other tower unless I get AF. Landmines and second priority on BM but sprint / fester / ruin 2's while movin can keep the dps going. Few times all dots fall not paying attention while working on dread and tabbing back.
