This idea came to me while I was trying to figure out a way to use to use new abilities (shoha from SAM, or my own mudra preferences in 80 NIN) that are treated differently by miqo. I love miqo so far, but not the fighting for GCD uptime control. So originally, I tried to set up defensive abilities for her to take care of while I use all my offensives myself. After experimenting with this idea, and its expanded to a bit more to most of my oGCDs. It seems like it could be useful for those who like a bit more active input during combat so I wanted to share it.
Since Miqo uses only the abilities linked to hotkey’d bars on screen, I would place oGCD’s and defensives on those. I’d then use a gamepad for gameplay and miqo would use the oGCD’s she could see while not touching the ones I set myself. I couldn’t figure out a way to use mouse and keyboard with the full control, aside from placing them on a separate bar without hotkeys and manually clicking them. That seemed cumbersome to me so I don’t do it myself, but it’s an option for now if you guys don’t want/like gamepad play.
Has anyone else tried something to this effect? If anyone’s interested, I can try to develop this line of thought a bit more so we can all take advantage of it.
