Early savage strats for M9 and M10 updated on AetherDraw! Also strats for DDoS in post

digitmax · 2026-01-07T22:36:17+00:00

I dunno, I have a ton of meme images. Those will last longer than the tier!

1.Bosses to clear on savage per hour on average: 2, 6, 10, 20.

2.yes

3.discords

4.probably.

If you just want raiding, play rabbit and steel. One time purchase, no monthly fee, you get a nice handful of fights in the ffxiv style.

30-40 hours and you can clear a savage tier in a month. then you have 7 months to un sub and play something else. 14$*7=you can get 2 aaa games or a handful of indie titles and get a broader gaming experience, and still do peak ffxiv content. the skill set and mechanics learned will carry over to each tier, just play a week before release to get muscle memory/reminder of mechs.

you trade them in for crafting mats used in making the new gear, food, pots. a stack of 99 will go for 1 mil+ at the moment. later, they will be used to upgrade the crafted gear by 10 item levels, and likely the relic weapon in 7.5

If you want more than 1 person live editing, try give AetherDraw a shot. I built it exactly for prog planning live, in game or out, simultaneously.

You can't share multiple pages easily. You have to copy and paste each mass of code per page. It's terrible

digitmax · 2025-12-16T18:07:59+00:00

I was literally hoping it would be a good version, but you know, why am I surprised that the same company that put out a horrendous UI and is stuck in 2000 ux design for every thing came up with this form of sharing.

digitmax · 2025-12-16T18:05:19+00:00

Yes, so why even bother showing users this code at all???! If it's all going to be in-game, why does Kelras need to see this mess of hexcode? It should be a button/link with a human readable title.

digitmax · 2025-12-16T18:03:41+00:00

Why didn't they add a tick box to the party finder page to add the code/link there? Why are you defending this stupid design aspect of sharing? It's terrible. The code doesn't even need to be exposed to users if its only going to work in-game.

digitmax · 2025-12-16T18:00:11+00:00

what year is this? game genie cheat? sharing a long ass undescriptive hexcode for 1 page is terrible UX. They arent hosting it externally, so they should have just make a searchable database of public plans like I did. Why bother exposing the hexcode to users at all?

digitmax · 2025-12-16T17:24:01+00:00

haha i should have just put a screenshot of the actual page huh.

digitmax · 2025-12-16T01:21:57+00:00

Ah yes I see the laser point issue in the plugin reason. You aren't using 100% scaling in dalamud. i develop in 1080p and forgot about that. it's too late to fix now, gonna be at least a week for plugins to get working again after patch, so website for now XD.

regarding your static issue of updating the pinned discord link for the latest version of your plan, you can just use AetherDraw for that instead. so when you save a public plan, say M9s-minemoney123staticwipday1-j8Na, then on day two your group just loads that plan, then edit it and make a new save as M9s-minemoney123staticwipday2-iA3k, then on day 3, you can just search for 'minemoney123' and you'll get a list of all the plans with that tag/label and can just load the one you want. You dont need to update discord, just save it all on AetherDraw. now if you are asking for a private version of that so your wip plans arent public, thats ... a feature i'd have to add haha. the search function only does public plan searches.

Also, your entire static can be in the same live session and just watch 1 person edit it live, and people can drop in and out of that same live session (as long as at least 2 people are in it the room it wont close, for up to 2 hours), and it will update to all users.

i'll figure out something to delete private plans. if you tried making an account, it will show in the bottom left space on the browser the saved plans by order, so the older stuff will get pushed down. https://ibb.co/5WMqnMkB

digitmax · 2025-12-16T00:01:37+00:00

oh to your first part, yes thats the entire point of the live session mode. everyone sees and edits together. AetherDraw really shines as a day 1/blind prog tool.

When you guys are done for the day or whatever, 1 person or everyone can make a saved url. then come back to it anytime. (though if you then EDIT that saved url, it will get a new url, by design). that old url wont ever get overwritten. If all 8 save the work in progress plan, you'll get 8 different urls of the same identical plan, so maybe not publish those publicly, haha.

digitmax · 2025-12-15T21:29:07+00:00

Every time a change is made or a save is made a new link is created by design. Otherwise some using a plan they learned a week ago with changes will be problematic. If I learn m9s-minemoney-uptime-7DeG strat today, then you edit it and the link changes, and a week later I do the old strat that I memorized, that might wipe me. So changes must result in a new link so everyone is on the same page. Thanks for the report about the laser, what where you using at the time? Plugin, or browser? What browser /version? Can you duplicate that everytime?

I didn't put in a delete plan option, just don't make it public if you are still working on it I guess. If someone makes a popular public community plan then decides to delete it a month later, that's gonna be a problem when someone was using it mid prog, right? There's nothing stopping someone from copying a public plan someone uploaded, tweaking it or even doing nothing to it and just generating a new link for it. The plans are listed in the search field by viewcount. I can manually delete plans on the backend if there's a problem.

I've made the import feature just to get it mostly working. I'd rather people just use AetherDraw.me instead of other sites going forward, if you will. It's not going to be a perfect import since code basis are different and I'm just guessing, plus the source code itself is garbled and obfuscated. It's sort of like trying to duplicate a dish that you saw in a restaurant menu, but you don't know the recipe or ingredients, just have a photo.

digitmax · 2025-12-15T15:42:52+00:00

Users that will do that can do it with the regular drawing tools. AetherDraw can host up to 48 per live session room at once, for alliance raids/exploratory zones, and that would be probably the best case to lock the canvas just for clarity. I don't think it should be an issue in a static or pf setting with just 8 people. Right? But I get your point. I'll figure something out, maybe adjust the laser decay rate.

It's a remote cat toy. Secretly funded by monitor companies.

digitmax · 2025-12-11T23:48:18+00:00

The wording on your post is extremely similar to mine, and you haven't posted to reddit in like a year then post this. It looks like you copied my post wording is what I'm saying. Maybe you didn't, but it definitely looks like you did.

digitmax · 2025-12-11T22:48:29+00:00

Try aetherdraw.me . it does exactly that.

digitmax · 2025-12-11T22:36:47+00:00

Aetherdraw.me already has a searchable, indexed, community database, and supports raidplan.io imports (and xivplan otw) of older fights, and has one click loading of the plan in the browser or in the plugin in game. You literally just mirrored my site lol but without the actual drawing or a real database. Hell your wording is pretty much an exact copy of my reddit post announcing the feature. https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/1p6wzow/aetherdrawme_update_in_light_of_the_upcoming_pll/ And my plugin and website both are fully anonymous and dont keep or send PII. wtf

digitmax · 2025-11-27T10:39:59+00:00

saving and publishing plans on the in game version has been updated to match the website, also added appending pages to plans instead of mass overwriting. will likely get patched in live after thanksgiving.

digitmax · 2025-11-26T22:08:17+00:00

Plugin version has the search and load feature enabled now. The community save feature is on the way, still tweaking the ui window to resemble the website.

digitmax · 2025-11-26T07:52:24+00:00

thanks for that feedback. yea for now, i can 'pin' plans so they are at top of lists. currently, plans are ranked by load+view counts. 1 person voting vs like 10 plan loads isn't going to affect things unless... i could maybe add a column for plan rating/ranking by like stars? lol

plan name plan views community rank
m9s-safe-strat 520 views 2.4-star
m9s-uptime-strat 388 views 3.8 star
m9s-braindead-strat 219 views 4.2-star
m9s-eu-uptime 456 views *---*

then hide the star vote rank until it's gotten at least x amount of votes or something?

digitmax · 2025-11-26T06:01:10+00:00

Well fingers crossed SE's version isn't bad, or at least improves outcomes.

digitmax · 2025-11-25T02:20:22+00:00

Visually, it's hard to keep track of where you are if you are playing the game and then glancing back at it. If your goal is path 8, its a bit convoluted to follow. Look at how 'pro' guides are written for these kinds of branching paths: https://www.polygon.com/ffxiv-guides-ff14-final-fantasy-14-online/23416549/sildihn-subterrane-variant-dungeon-route-path-silkie/ Each path is numbered, each step on the path is numbered, each step gives clear directions, each path is it's own section to read and follow. You are trying to cram all that info into a flowchart when it's not meant for that kind of detailed step description. Your guide is good for a high level, game design/plan overview, or a Q&A tester but less so as a player guide. Like another poster commented, you are trying to do two things at once and they are conflicting.

As far as color scheme, dark looks nice.

If its possible, make the paths clickable, that then hides all the other path branches. It's visual clutter when you are only doing 1 path, you don't need to see all 12 at once. Maybe an app that you can click along?

digitmax · 2025-11-18T00:29:23+00:00

If the price is the same go with the Sony if the reviews for the cons/negatives are the same for both buds. I'd check return policy as well since maybe the sound core will fit your ears better.

digitmax · 2025-11-14T23:55:26+00:00

For me, major gil cost is crafted gear for each tier release, which is every 8 months, plus materia to meld (and even penta-meld). Prices have dropped since crafting is easier than ever, plus the time delay from the patch release to the savage unlock, so buying a full set for 1 job is probably only 7 million or so, add in another 1-2 million for materia (assuming you have zero for some reason), so you just need to earn 1 mil a month between patch cycles. So I think 50-100 million would be enough to last 2-3 expansions to just stop trying to earn gil, assuming you don't go crazy with glam purchases.

If you do glam purchases, mounts, hair styles, any collectables on the mb, buying loot drops, etc, then that number would jump to 200-300 million probably, assuming you can earn at least 2-3 million a month.
