Absolutely! If you’ve got Squadron Dungeons unlocked you can find a scenario to run those for you over in the grid/scenario subforum.
You can set it up to run a dungeon on a loop, only stopping to repair and turn in drops for more seals to fund more dungeon runs.
The only issue is that the only dungeon that we currently have access to that gives as many seals as it costs is level 54 so when leveling classes below that level you’ll need to have a good amount of seals already or go farm up a bunch before you run the scenario overnight.
Miqo is a very helpful tool for mitigating the grinding of the game, but you can’t just set it loose to do the story for you or anything.
You can program elaborate scenarios to farm materials, craft things, or play minigames and such. Once you’ve progressed far enough in the game you can have it run squadron dungeons to level your combat classes up without your input, and you can turn on “Assist Mode” to take care of attacking and healing for you while you focus on movement and mechanics and targeting the right enemy.
Miqo gets more useful the further into the game you are, imo, but that doesn’t mean that Miqo can’t be helpful at low levels, just that some of its features aren’t useful for you yet.
At the moment it does 2 runs, then repairs and then exchanges for seals, repeat. So it must not be exchanging everything?
Do you have the setting turned on so that all the gear that drops goes into your inventory instead of your armory bag?
If you do and are still not getting more than you’re spending you might have a bunch of Sohm Al gear in your armory chest already and are unable to loot it when it drops in the dungeon.
Otherwise I’m not sure. My Sohm Al squad dungeons give me way more than it costs to run, on average.
Hey there! This is actually a question I can answer, so I’ll tackle it!
Someone already made a scenario to run squadron dungeons and then repair.
Amzo’s very helpful scenario can be found there and it also turns in anything in your inventory that can be turned in for GC credits! There is an option in FFXIV’s many menus that will dump all new gear into your bag so you can fire and it will loop doing dungeons and repairing/turning in the gear for more credits to fuel dungeons!
In the future you’ll probably have better luck in the Grids and Presets forum asking for scenarios, and don’t forget to check out the Scenario Index to find a bunch of useful Scenarios others have put together and shared.
I have no experience with making a combat scenario but I imagine there is nothing stopping you from making one for Eureka.
Combat Assist doesn’t currently (and perhaps will never?) work with Scenarios so you would need to make an ingame macro that was capable of defeating whatever you’re farming with no other input.
You would also need to create a grid that would allow you to move around the area, and then construct a scenario where you traveled from waypoint to waypoint using your macro for sufficient time to defeat enemies.
Obviously that would be a complicated and messy Scenario that is likely different for every job you play and enemy you fight, so it would be hard to impossible for someone to make one for you!
For Miqo to automatically move for positionals and gathering it needs to be set in Legacy movement type (basically if you move left your character will turn left while running instead of strafing left, for example)
To change to Legacy go to character configuration -> control settings -> movement settings -> check “Legacy Type (Camera-based)”
Hi guys,
The bot/scenario is working wonderfully but is there a way so it hands all items in for seals asnitnis not handing in coloured items, would someone be able to make it so it can?
Thanks,
I’m not 100% sure I understand your question. If the scenario isn’t handing in items from the dungeons you might need to change a menu option so all your picked up items go into your bags instead of the armory chest. You can do this pretty easily. Character Configuration -> Item Settings -> Uncheck “Store all newly obtained items in the armory chest”
That should make it so every item from the dungeon appears in your bag and the scenario hands in anything in your bag that can be turned in for seals.
I’m going to preface this that there is a lot of variance and it will probably vastly depend on how much FFXIV changes when the expansion comes out. Every patch Miqo gets more complicated and every change SE makes to the game is going to break something. It could be a few days or a few weeks for any particular function to be back online, and the Miqo team couldn’t possibly hope to predict their downtime without knowing what changes SE is going to make. For example if SE decides to trim some combat abilities and add a bunch of new ones every combat class will need to be fixed.
Miqo was fully nonfunctional for about 5 days after Stormblood released, and when it came back it was only the basic functions that were running.
This was long before we had the combat beta, which seems like an extremely complicated beast! Each job is probably going to need work. That is going to extend the time until Combat is back on the table.
That said I expect we’ll probably see Crafting/Gathering working up to Stormblood skill levels sooner rather than later, but every new crafting ability is going to most likely require a ton of math work to get the crafting solver running at its peak again.
So my entirely unhelpful answer is “probably somewhere between 5 days and a few months depending on the features you care about”
I’m not sure there is any way to be more accurate than that this far out from the expansion though, I’m sorry!
I think I messed it up! Try this
key(f12, 0.5) //target placard key(num0, 2) //confirm key(num2, 0.5) //wake cursor key(num0, 1) //confirm key(num0, 1) //confirm key(num4, 0.5) //wake cursor key(num2, 1) //cursor down key(num0, 1) //confirm key(num4, 0.5) //cursor left key(num0, 1) //confirm afkFor(00:00:10) repeatChapterFor(24:00:00)I assumed I wouldnt need to wake the cursor again, but this one works on my end
key(f12, 0.5) //target placard key(num0, 2) //confirm key(num2, 0.5) //wake cursor key(num0, 1) //confirm key(num2, 1) //cursor down key(num0, 1) //confirm key(num4, 0.5) //cursor left key(num0, 1) //confirm afkFor(00:00:10) repeatChapterFor(24:00:00)If your keybinds are the same as the default I believe this will do the fc house purchase.
If you’re looking to level combat jobs automatically you’ll almost certainly need to be doing it through Squadron Dungeons at this point. If you’re unaware Squadron Dungeons are unlocked through your Grand Company and let you take three NPCs into various dungeons between 20-60. Miqobot has support for enough dungeons that you can level classes to 70 quite passively, with enough time. Someone has created a very helpful scenario that runs a few dungeons with your squad, runs to a repair person to repair, then turns in all the drops for Grant Company Seals, then repeats. As long as no one on your friends list/link shells/free company reports you for being in the same dungeon all day you’re fine doing that to level.
Unfortunately all of the early Squadron Dungeons cost more Grand Company Seals to enter than you get for trading in the drops, so you’ll want to start with as many seals as you can. Eventually you hit a point where you get more back than you put in, at which point you can cycle between high/low jobs to stay self sufficient.
As for leveling Crafters; that is a little more complicated. You’ll definitely want to have your Botanist and Miner jobs leveled so you can get the raw materials and shards to craft, then I’d suggest just keep making whatever is good experience and takes raw materials you can gather on each crafting job. There are guides on the internet (I tend to use the ffxivguild website) for each job, if you need a little more direction.
Miqo isn’t actually designed for automating leveling, just for easing the grind somewhat. I guess it is technically possible someone could make scenarios for gathering raw materials/shards and then crafting them into items to level, but no one has taken on that particular extremely daunting project yet.
Good luck, feel free to keep asking questions though!
It takes pretty extreme carelessness to get banned with Miqo. SE doesn’t detect it so they rely 100% on reports from players. And a single report probably wouldn’t move the needle so you’d be fine. You would need to be doing something needlessly repetitive 24 hours/day and get noticed by large groups of people who all report you. At that point most likely you would get a whisper from a GM. If you are actively there at the PC you could talk your way out of anything just fine… If not you almost certainly would receive a suspension for a few days or weeks. Get caught out a few times like that and you’ll find yourself banned.
I’m certain its happened to people before but with the scenario builder you can literally change tasks every hour or two automatically to throw off any players noticing, and add in AFK times so you look like you head off to eat or drink, etc.
Taking reasonable precautions and/or staying at your PC while the program runs is enough to keep you safe in almost any situation!
Is it possible to bind a controller button to pause/unpause assist mode?
I have a physical disability that makes using mouse and keyboard impossible, so I use a controller.
Even then more than half the classes in the game require more dexterity than I can achieve, so assist mode has let me really open up the content I can experience in FFXIV! Though I do find it awkward to turn on my wireless keyboard so I can pause assist mode when I need to do specific mechanics like the lamps in Haukke Manor.
If I could bind it to L3 or R3 it would be that much more convenient!
Thanks!
