I was debating making a video like this because of how game changing some of these settings are. I'm not a content creator and have no desire to be though so I figured it wouldn't get seen. Thanks for making this. I can link this to some of the newer players I come across, and it should help them immensely.
You just blew my friggin mind! <3 And obviously gained a sub and like lol
You can scaaaale the windows! I am a sprout, soon to lose that, but still! Never would have known by the time I finish EW… These types of vids are among my favourite content, the quality of life tips and simple things you never knew about
Specifically for the glamour inspection part: I think more important than the UI zoom size there is just knowing you can zoom the viewport with mousewheel (+ pan it with right mouse button). You shouldn't have too much issue looking at whatever part you want even at the normal size then.
OMFG I didn't know there was the option of changing chat with ALT! You just made my life so much better as I am constantly chatting between party and fc always clicking for the right option or forgetting about it half the time XD
Just put strafe on Q and E shits real good and you can keep the spin
I wish they would make targeting other things than enemies easily. Like when I’m playing as a Red Mage and the healers have their hands full healing, and I see another player KOed close by that isn’t in my party, I sometimes have a lot of trouble targeting them (I play on console) to Rez them myself.
Or when I’m in a Fate and I can’t target a knocked out player to Rez because my targeting is ONLY targeting enemies and NOTHING else (aside from being able to easily target my party members with the D pad). I have to rush up to the player, zoom my camera REALLY close into them, and then I’d be able to target them and Rez them.
The targeting issues is the main reason why I can’t play as a healer, because I can’t target players outside of my party without going through a hassle. I’m sure for Raids there is a menu for that somewhere, but the issue is still there.
I will say the inventory option there is a nice surprise though! I’m going to look into that when I next log in!
Wow I didn't know how much I needed this thank you awesome video
if you dont use legacy mode then dont raid with me.
Thanks a bunch, found a couple useful tips!
I would like to ask a question tho: is there a way to filter out "clickable" names on the screen during combat? I'm mainly playing dps/tank jobs that don't require ally targeting, but often time as I turn my camera whilst holding RMB – I instead re-target to an ally and lose a gcd or two in a process of re-targeting the enemy.
nice vid i think ill subscrizzle thanks for info
I move my character with the mouse. Way easier.
Legacy is love. Legacy is life. Subbed for your pleasant presentation.
Great tips my friend! I've put in almost 10,000 hrs into this game and i've used almost all of those, can confirm they are useful!
One thing I'd mention, macros are incredibly useful, not just for things like level sync, but also for cycling hotbars and executing skills on targets. For instance /ac "Nascent Flash" <2> would allow you to use Warrior's Nascent Flash skill on the 2nd party member (so your co-tank in an 8 man raid) without needing to target your party member!
Thank you Jol, Very cool – Ahn'kel
Very useful you earned a sub for sure!
00:00 general kanobi!
Does someone know how to do this up and down with the camera with a controller?
Ngl Legacy doesn't feel good for me, especially in raiding ;w;
Waaa didnt show the backpack one.
you can make it so you open all 4 bags as 1 big one
You should bind "confirm" to some button. This way you can mass deliver levies, gear for company seals, etc, simply by spamming one button. It can also be used to access quest npcs that got tons of people on it.
16k hours here and I didn't know you could do that thing with Armory/Inventory dungeon gear. Thanks lol
The armor being sent to you inventory is amazing 👏. Thanks a lot also the tab 😀
