You're absolutely correct, don't let YoshiP bully you from your truth. The AddOn stuff is all about unfair gameplay advantages, but they can't "define" AddOns to ban only specific ones, and they can't allow all of them the way WoW does because console gaming is a thing for FFXIV. Don't tell anyone about your AddOns in a way that can be reported to Square and they can't do anything about it.

BLM Experience Doomgaze Hollow puts a green Void Aero circle on the dude next to me. "Go away!" I think. "I'm in my Ley Lines! YOU move!" I curse internally for another heartbeat and then I see...there's actually a different Ley Lines largely overlapping with mine, and the other guy's *also* a BLM, no doubt projecting the same mental energy at me. We actually both managed to slide-cast stand at the very perimeter of our Lines and avoid me taking the hit  It would have been funnier if we both ate the damage in Of course the other BLM got my commendation.

I always feel light admiration when I see a BLM eat an aoe to stand in their circle. "If you had the strength to finish one more cast... could you?"

SuperKlaus posted:BLM Experience A safe response with those types of AOEs - AOEs that are designed to be survivable - is just to deal with it and take the hit. If you're low HP or your healers are dead or whatever, fine dodge, but otherwise you shouldn't make unreasonable efforts to move the aoes out of the group, or dodge someone with a single aoe. In the former, you're just making even more cascading changes to people trying to dodge around you, and the latter doesn't matter. Just make sure there's not dangerous amount of overlap. Nearly always there are multiple people getting targeted by them in multiple parties. The healers will just AOE heal it anyways, so having one more person get HP back doesn't matter. If you want to be doubly safe, just hit manawall and plant those feet.

Lord_Magmar posted:You're absolutely correct, don't let YoshiP bully you from your truth. There's also the fact that WoW has a specific toxicity problem that amounts to making Game Enhancement AddOns mandatory which I can imagine the XIV staff don't want any part of. But yeah, unless something bonkers happens, as long as you keep shtum in XIV proper (and maybe the official forms, just to be safe) about what AddOns you're using, the mods will leave you alone.

I don't think it's all that unreasonable for yoship to expect that the part of the community that keeps asking for hard content actually wants to play hard content, rather than use tool assists to beat it quickly for clout.

Of course it's unreasonable. Or at the very least, unrealistic. I'll submit the entire history of gaming (or sport) as evidence. No one should expect anything like that to be free of cheating without any sort of process to keep it that way. Orcs and Ostriches fucked around with this message at 18:38 on Jan 31, 2023 |

There's always going to be an inbuilt expectation of people seeking to clandestinely gain a competitive advantage; I don't think SE is stupid, and they know full well by now what can be done with modding. Blog posts like that are less about someone being flabbergasted that a completely predictable thing occurred, and are more about setting a community standard and staking a clear position on the issue in the same way that anti-doping agencies and the like do.
