Suggestion [BLM] #159

Closed Alkeyd closed 2 months ago

Me again! And if Fire 3 turn into Blizzard 3 when on Astral Fire (Fire Rotation) and don't have Firestarter Buff and back to Fire 3 when in Umbral Ice (Ice Rotation)

What about if you have only one stack of UI because you transposed? In that situation, sometimes you want to use Fire 3, sometimes you want to use Blizzard 3 instead of Umbral Soul, it entirely depends on how much MP you have, and that's a check that's a bit hard to add a solid 'if' statement for. Also, you don't always want to Fire 3 when you're out of combat, like if you're low on MP, and I'm not sure I want to, at the moment, add a feature with so many conditional checks.

Sorry for the delay, I was sleeping, I don't play BLM, it was a friend's suggestion, but it really seems to be something very situational

Grammernatzi commented 3 months ago

No problem, it's just hard to work on something like this for two things that aren't mutually exclusive (like Fire 4/Blizzard 4 and, once you get Fire 3/Blizzard 3, Fire 1 and Blizzard 1). It'd be a lot of work to make sure it doesn't mess things up and I don't think I'm really up to that task right now. If someone else wanted to work on it and test it out and push it via a pull request, though, if they figured out how to make it work perfectly, then maybe.

I was going to close the chat but I thought of something for WAR, that he could have an extra option to transform the combo into AOE in Decimate whenever he has 50+ Gauge, for DG it would be very useful since he has Infuriate that fills 50 Gauge and ends up giving Overcap

Grammernatzi commented 2 months ago

Main reason I didn't do something like this is because it can be a bit too automatic (to the point where it can be detrimental sometimes) and because there's already a fell cleave to decimate feature to save buttons. I did once have a fell cleave/decimate to infuriate feature though, I could perhaps add that again?
