"yeah dude i cleared DSR like its super ez" - 5 Auto-pilot plugins running in the back-
This wasn't a prog stream, it was clearly a ban any% run stream
title that the stream had "DSR P5 Prog DO NOT WATCH FOR PERSONAL USE", brother, if it's personal use, don't stream on twitch where everything is public lol
Hey can I read your comment? Let me know, thanks.
-Everything below this line is for personal use ONLY do not read.
I really need to shower omg I stink
I mean tbh I stream for personal use and dont expect/want people to watch it's mostly to see my pov of what i'm doing wrong or what i can see is wrong whenever there is wipe. Obviously that's not the case for this guy lmao but i get the sentiment of streaming for the intention of yourself and not because you want others to see
@@GoodLosertjo then just record it. Dont stream, D'uh. Or no, ignore what i said, stream it and let it be recorded on twitch. Gt yourslf bannd and for using third party tools and let the Eorzea be less plagued by filth.
@@GoodLosertjo you realize you can.... record.... with OBS, right? Streaming so that the VOD gets hosted by Twitch, I get that. But then you have to follow the TOS... so it's less about the idea of "why are you streaming for yourself" and more "you're streaming for yourself, while fully knowing you have addons.... why?"
@@XBitX Yeah exactly! This guy was able to set up the cheats, but didn't even know he didn't have to go live to have a recording saved of his POV? That's a different kind of stupid 😭💀
Cheating is awful yeah but Thordan having a yaoi paddle is the funniest shit I’ve ever seen
gotta bring the cat bois in line.
I've seen images of Thordan as an amogus, textools really is a gift
But it is cheating, you are less scared and play better! (Sarcasm, love your comment.)
🤣
He's also using a bot to do his rotation. It's really obvious by how there's no mashing, the buttons are hit at the exact same intervals. So he's not even playing the game, just pressing W. I also love the little radar on the bottom right lmao
Gamers are just that well equipped these days
This is ""not playing the game"" taken to a new fucking level lmfaooo
He just got a really amazing gaming chair
he's got that tier 3 sub bro
Uuhhhh Im not defending the dude but i dont mash my buttons i hit them softly and on time usually twice. I don't do Ultimates but do complete Savage tiers.
Ive been telling people that stuff like this exists forever but nobody seems to care or listen. People have even more advanced timers and stuff for the other 3 ultimates and all of Savage is braindead with the reaction and timelines. I know ive been using them to sell clears and make tens of thousands over the past years. Exact same as I botted 6 rogues in a dungeon in WoW Classic for a year straight made enough to buy a entire kitchen suit and remodel my entire house.
You can also buy a new account and have the bots take it through all of ARR-EW while only doing a few dungeons/trials then have it trust level all jobs to 90. Banning characters does nothing to stop this.
Imagine cheating this hard and still failing
Cheats cannot fix shit players.... But this person is literally using a bot to do an auto-rotation, they have no excuse LMAO
Having a look at the logs on the tanks gave me the impression that this was a pug group. The BRD was probably the only one cheating.
Absolutely deplorable
@@damnsahn i dont think it matters, as soon as one is cheating SE will hold everyone accountable for once the video is seen by them
Imagine telling on yourself XD
The DBM sound cues complete the whole thing.
Problem is, when this stuff goes on unchecked, the general player base can begin to question all clears, legit or not and over time, it ruins the validity of the achievements of those who don't cheat. That is when a game is broken beyond repair.
This has been possible since UCOB came out bro.
I already question the validity of all ultimate weapons I see floating around Limsa
A lot of people already use this. Thats why so many people have glowing weapons :>
@@scubarubanzaii Don't forget the legend titles
the real problem is that if this sort of shit becomes okay in the eyes of the community at large, it becomes rude of you NOT to have the game effectively on auto-play because now you're the one wasting everyone else's time by making it harder to clear. And once it becomes all but mandatory to have these add-ons to clear high-end content, the developers are effectively forced to design raids assuming they're being used... and that's how you wind up in the death spiral than modern WoW's mythic+ raid scene finds itself stuck in.
it's not just about 'legitmacy', this kind of crap will legitimately effect the way the game is designed if left unchecked... and not in a good way.
Why would someone record themselves hacking like this?
Good question, I’d like to know the answer to that as well.
the streamer have no viewers a bunch of losers from WOW or FF14 record raids to see ASAP how they can improve and where they made a mistake
The funniest thing is the title of the stream "Do not watch for personal use". That has to be sarcasm haha
@@extrathicc78 🤓☝ ACTUALLY
@@extrathicc78 Lmao
This is like what if Ultimates had tutorials
There is going to be a breaking point sooner or later. Ffxiv might get closer and closer to scanning game files when you launch the game. Just to prevent 3rd party programs and mods. All because a select few. Sad really
Yeah, I'm expecting to see Easy Anti-Cheat; or something akin to that, next time I come back to the game(which idk when that will be). And honestly, I'm praying for it at this point. Vanilla XIV isn't that bad at all, sure I'll miss my ACT DPS Meter, but at this point idc anymore lol. But I do hope the Revamp to the UI(again) is good/customizable enough to settle the cries(since that's what people mostly complain about with XIV in the first place, or at least publicly and why they use Mods) just so the Devs can implement an Anti-Cheat software.
There is no anti-cheat against this. You are creating a scenario and then using it to validate your position that they just few of them and cause you real harm. These cheats and much worse existed since the start and there is no indication that Square Enix is ignorant on this issue. If something forces their hand, it will be a hysteria of the regular players that cannot be managed behind the scenes. Suddenly they have to make public bans and vague statements.
I guess I am trying to say that it does not matter whether you are right or not - you are pushing the community closer to the breaking point.
@@mckidney1 no one is disputing how long these cheats have been around. Only a fool would believe they've just now surfaced. Players; like myself, are just tired of people publicly cheating like this, and wish the Devs would do more than just say: "Don't do that" because that's NOT gonna work. If anything, Players that publicly cheat are the ones who will "break" the community lmao
@@ikeaira8701 bro the community that mods their game is way larger than the one that cares about what happens in high end raiding.
@@addiction4062 all the more reason to care about this tbch. These few bad apples will eventually ruin that entire community's effort to create amazing mods for the game.
even using a bot to do rotation... I remember back in my day when we used to play games and enjoy it.
honestly that's the most confusioning part of it all
pretty sure he was enjoying it, not hurting anybody.
@@ich3730 :) He is just projecting his own lack of enjoyment. Be supportive to a aging player that has to remind himself that games are meant to be fun.
Funniest part beside the paddle is that he still has his original mini map enable with that fucking radar.
One thing is for sure. If you need these tools to get through the content, you should look for easier games. Idle games, for example. You don't really have to think about it and everything runs automatically.
Maybe they should play a game like World of Warcraft a game that designs fights around plugins and even encourages people to use plugins that play the game for them. oh wait they can't wow is fucking dead.
@@RevanBC Gambit system? HAHAAH
@@plac8510 hey now, there's also LotRO, and ESO :P
@@RevanBC kinda sad lol, why even bother playing the game when you're literally not even playing the game? Must get boring af after 5mins
@@RevanBC def haven't heard that excuse being used a lot more recently LOL
Jokes aside, so long as you're not streaming you breaking ToS ig you're safe
Very obviously botting the rotation too lol. You can see his song/Bloodletter/Empyreal Arrow binds at the bottom of the screen, but the game isn't showing the usual "ripple" effect that appears when you press a keybind. But then at 7:49, you can see the ripple effect for the /broom emote keybind he's mashing lmao
Hmm if his rotation is botted theoretically he should always parse 100%?
@@davidth932 no you don't understand how bad rng is in this game.
Executing your rotation perfectly does not guarantee you a 100%. Heck, it may not even guarantee you a 99%, especially on buffing jobs like Bard.
@@davidth932 programming a perfect rotation to every fight is likely nearly impossible. It’s probably just a striking dummy base rotation which will just get you an average parse.
Bard has a good portion of their dps on raid buffs. Moreover parse is dependent on killtime. You can do more dps than the fastest clear by just having an extra burst phase
why even play when you are going to use all this crap?
im with Arthars on this: hope he gets perma-banned
Because they want the reward without doing the work.
@@rebellyanmagic6409 seems like quite a bit of work as they still fail the fight lmao, they want to "lessen" the work for sure. Just a bunch of pussies imo lmao cant even beat an ultimate fight without help aaahahahahaa I bet they are embarrassed
People will start to question legit clears as spoon-fed clears.
It's hilarious to me that he was streaming this expecting people to not find it.
Is there somewhere a VOD of the original record? Because i would love to show this shit to some people that say "Well if people cant prog normaly its ok to use a bit of help from tools"
ive never seen someone cheat this hard in any game to clear content oh my god
This is how raiding looks like in WoW btw. Might even be worse in WoW by now.
that’s extra zoom out is what I need for leap of faith
This person needs to be permabanned... no this isn't a 'tool' as everyone loves to call cheating now, it's CHEATING!
Where you were when people active used bots? pvp hacks? nude mods? why are you all that much salty now? so much worrying that someone else will be allowed to use legend title?
@@H0ttabych found the cheater
@@H0ttabych But, like, imagine cheating to get a prestige title. Imagine proudly displaying something you couldn't get legit, the way most (hopefully) others had to. Isn't that just sad?

Cheating and still failing to clear
It's like poetry
well, it's eight man content maybe there is a slight chance that the others doesn't aware about what this duy was doing.
but aat this point this guy should have just have 7 more alt with same tools and bot to clear the run himself 5hed.
@@KooriKurayami or just buy the clear lol
Lmao , so this is what 95% of the mentors use in this game and still fail mechanics. 😂
@@kurobae1239 Nah a bunch of the mentors in the game legit or not still fail at things, to expect them to run things flawlessly 100% of the time just shows you don't get what it is to be one. Let alone if they were doing it flawlessly that often you'd have MORE reason to be suspicious of them. You can tell pretty easily when someone's ACTUALLY a mentor, and who's a "mentor" and it has nothing to do with what crown they have just watch how they behave it's really THAT simple.
That zoom out is totally insane 😳 😂🤣
he even modded the bard attack animations lol
Epic.... "Don't look" for the gaze.. Totally new mechanic.... /facepalm
People just love pushing the envelope, and its going to ruin things for everyone that maybe just wanted some retextures for UI or make cool house designs. Things like this is what gets what little freedom you have with mods taken away and indiscriminate ban waves rolled out.
Let's be real damage monitoring, parsing, housing stuff, modifying game files for pretty textures, the second life style mods, this DBM style thing, even zooming out further than the console claustrophobic zoom, all of it are on the same level according to SE. There is no freedom with mods
Imagine Raid needs you to score 100 points to clear them.
Normally through repetition, remembering the attack pattern, and good teamworks would be enough to score 100 and clear the Raid.
The cheats the guys use has already gave them the 100 score. But unfortunately their Minus IQ keep them from clearing it
It's important to note that third party tools have always been against the rules, but the devs explained that trying to report people for using third party tools shouldn't be common practice because there's rarely a way to prove the player is using those tools unless there's clear in-game evidence (if you've ever witnessed botting behavior in-game, that's one of the only instances where you can catch pretty obvious cheating just by looking; but banning those players does little in the grand scheme of things because they just make a new account).
The devs explained that they cannot (and would not even if it were possible) scan every user's PC for third party tools which is really the only theortical way they might be able to catch cheaters. They also could implement a third party security software like Easy Anti-Cheat, which VR Chat just implemented, but I'm not really sure how that would work or if it would work against a third party tool used in FF14.
The definition of a third party tool also varies greatly. If a player uses a calculator in a duty involving math, by definition it's a third party tool, but does that player really deserve to be banned for sucking at math?
This is why within the community of people who use third party tools, talking about third party tools in the chat log is a big no-no, as is streaming while using third party tools. You put yourself at serious risk by doing so. People misunderstood the devs' message about third party tools, or they listened to heresay from others who were blabbing on social media about "Third party tools are allowed!" No. They're not. They never have been. But it's also not something that devs are concerned about. At least, they weren't.
However, after the incident with the team who were the first to beat DSR using third party tools, now they're a bit more attentive to the issue, therefore the whole "crackdown on cheaters" that still seems to hover in the community headlines. At this point, this streamer is just an idiot who thinks they're being sneaky. The names are all hidden, there's no server info to be seen. They know what they're doing, and they're willing to put their account at risk to garner views/attention.
Theres Enough Info On Screen to figure out what group it was, Time (Local and Server) First and last Name Letters and Class comp. These guys are gonna be in GM Jail for Quite some time by now.
it's actually illegal in Japan to scan others PCs, that was what Yoshi said atleast, so they literally can't do it.
also if you think easy anti cheat does anything, please, educate yourself on every game where easy anti cheat got added and how easy it was to defeat.
the most prominent cases would be Apex Legends, which features Easy Anti Cheat, yet it has more than enough cheaters. (even cheaters who keep doing it and are even known amongst the pro player base since this person can literally invade any lobby they want and even talk to other teams, which is normally impossible)
the other would be Elden Ring, where Easy Anti Cheat was so bad for the game that it got legit players banned due to an cheat people were using that placed an unobtainable item into players inventory, which easy anti cheat saw as them also cheating. (was the panties of 1 of the NPCs, kinda funny, the only real way to be safe was to delete your entire game including saves and start from scratch.
The thing is, they honestly could make exceptions for some 3rd party tools, classify each under certain categories, i get they don't have the manpower or the will to check every 3rd party plugin, totally understandable.
but they could word it so easy that it would leave no room for questions.
for example "UI mods that tell you the party members buff timers, make the CD timers bigger or tell you howmuch HP the monster has is allowed, mods or plugins that tell you an mechanic ahead of time or show you where an AOE will be dropped is not" (obviously they can word it much better)
because now it kinda feels like "we banned you, but thanks for the plugin though"
@@EverianKalim His name is also almost entirely on screen when the death recap shows up.
H. M. -> Hmmmmmmmmmm Ma-[something]
This dude is beyond stupid, it's actually insane he thought he could get away with it.
Bro no one is reading your long ass comment
@@IcedPTO and you can actually see the full name of the tank on the TT.
They still haven't cleared either lmao.
That’s the nuttiest part honestly, you have the raid being played for you, but you still couldn’t fucking win months after release. It’s honestly pathetic
I mean it might just be one person using the mods. You can only really shit on the Bard, not the rest of the team.
Honestly need to be mass reported so they can get a perma ban before they clear.
@@PanickedPixel Dude was streaming his prog and putting videos up. I find it insanely hard to believe not a single one of them ever glanced at a vod or a video. The team 100% knew and decided they were okay with it.
@@PanickedPixel I can safely say that it’s just the bard using them and no one else. I’m friends with one of the people and they’re honestly dropping the game now with how many are grouping them and the rest up with this loser bard. They play on console for gods sake. It sucks
I want that opening as a text notification or something.
Holy shit had me absolutely rolling!
and the bell! The bell!
If it weren't for the fact their whole rotation was likely automated as well, this is close to being the allowed addons that are in every day use in WoW.
Yeah, lmao. Im surprised he streamed this considering auto rotation is probably the worst sin especially in pvp. If he didn't stream this nobody would notice and very likely he wouldn't be banned.
The texture mods I have *no issue with* in and of itself. But the shit that shows the aoes? Yeah, *that* is cheating and should never happen. Numbers on the buffs/debuffs I also have no issue with, those are things [being able to adjust the size of your buff timers/etc] that should be available vanilla.
10:20
"how do you fuck that up?"
I don't think everyone in that group is using these plugins so they're probably just learning
Turns out that was the case
@@nintendofan9001 Was it actually confirmed? and if so i would want to see the source.
i doubt many others would be streaming this shit and i wouldn't believe it if the cheater was like "but my team used the same things!"
I mean the cheater didn’t die in that pull thanks to their add-ons. I’m gonna assume it wasn’t the full team doing it
@@DarkDyllon Someone read the logs (I guess someone from the group posted them) and concluded it was likely just the bard, or at the very least not the tanks
@@nintendofan9001 I don’t believe this as he was likely streaming for the team to review pulls.
That sound sounds familiar. Deadly boss mods and the other one had the same sound for serious reminders. The botting of his own rotation and DBM for FFXIV? Horrible...
Damn the game play itself, feels like a wow raid when you have all the addons needed 💀
This aged like fine wine. Gz JP!
well at least thordan holding the paddle was fun
so did he get banned? i can still find his twitch account, just with all past broadcasts deleted. or is "beibeibeibeibeibei" just his new one?
Tbh, this is for me way worse then DBM, Weakauras etc in WoW i hope they get banned
you should never cheat in a multiplayer game and you should never be dumb enough to broadcast yourself doing it thinking you wont get caught haha.
Never seen you before but I subbed when you screamed DUDE WHAAAT THE FUUUUCK! 😂😂
Why did I see that the party had a SMN but I never saw Garuda Ifrit or Titan not once
I get there are cosmetic / non-influencing mods but obviously as others said this is most similar to WoW WeakAuras but with massive enhancement. Obviously way beyond anything allowed in XIV, they deserve their ban.
graphical mods are one thing... they dont affect the game itself any more than Gshade does. But botted rotations and a minimap radar that literally shows you what the next attack is going to look like exactly? Thats cheating plain and simple.
Cosmetic mods used by people affect the game for you absolutely in the same way as ultimate helpers affect the game for you.
@@H0ttabych leave the booba alone :O
@@H0ttabych Actually true. If you wanted to you could mod the graphics out as much as possible to lose visual clutter to the lowest feasible. While most people don't wnat to play that way it can be an advantage.
@@Krescentwolf Graphical mods CAN effect the game a lot actually the trick is more what is the mod itself for and what does it do. He's got animation mods on to see effects are still happening but altered to not blind himself instead of just using the game's filtering or looking at buff bars to check it himself. The graphical mods he's using are doing more problematic stuff then you think. Now I get why some folks use them on like their character for say a hairstyle or something those are harmless, but attack animations is still harmful unless it is explicitly for use with some type of visual problem be it colorblindness or others. Especially given they are still not doing enough for such players despite getting complaints about it. They're slowly, VERY slowly trying to help those users but again as I see it the ones he's using aren't for that and I can tell what they're for since I've watched others use them for exactly what I mentioned above, it's to be lazy and not have to spend the brief moment it takes to look on a buff bar for the other tells when you reduce animations.
A few days after the world first ThordanU clear, I'd see someone in my Crystal Conflict DF team with one of those weapons as often as not. The fact that the fight went from unbeaten to proliferately conquered in a few dozen hours smells like a world of cheating, furthering what foul play was going on in ranked PvP.
I will say that I see FAR fewer strings of perfectly spaced CC or LBs and the lack of 10k credit ELOs makes today a somewhat less unfair time to play. They've cracked down on a little of the cheating.
I'd say it's more buying clears than cheating if it's that soon after world first. Even with all the extra help on your screen you still gotta do mechanics and I doubt most people would be able to clear it that fast even with cheats.
@@cerovlogs These cheats you see this guy using are awful compared to the real ones players use for content. I can get someone whose never played XIV before to clear ZodiarkEX as Dorito 99 times for me and parse 99-100% everytime on almost any class without ever dying. E8S? Its just WASD and Ucob-TEA are jokes.
the gurgle when u screamed tho homie
Custom mini map that shows you excatly where you need to stand, zoom hack and a bot that does the rotation for you. I just wonder whats point in clearing it at that point like he is no longer playing the same game. All he can really do is run around and pretend that has achived something.
When I was raiding in WoW we didn't even get addons this fancy...
Kids these days.
if i had to download one of those add-ons, the most acceptable one would probably be the one that shows your cool down timer. something that should be added to the game years ago tbh
And the icon on the head of character.
@@capt.sparrow8898 nah man. FF14 is so broken, the modding scene barely holds it together
False, the only acceptable one would be the yaoi paddle
@@gigabased4 based
Seeing as you can already see that you don't need a plugin for it, let alone you could use macros for it. I have a line in my swiftcast rez that just beeps and gives me an echo saying when I can swiftcast again. I have to laugh that people think they need plugins to achieve a lot of the things they use them for when the game already enables it if you just learn how to ACTUALLY use said systems.
The thing about these kind of addons is, he's not even playing the game at this point.
Even with other addons like XIV Combo or something like that, you still need to know your rotations, know the mechanics, and execute them all perfectly. This guy isn't even PRESSING BUTTONS cuz he's rotation botting. Like what satisfaction do people get out of this? "Hey look at this shiny weapon I got that I literally didn't work at all for!"? Like you could set up a Sprout with all this stuff, they could've been playing the game for two days, but with this much handholding I guarantee they could clear Savage content at the least
i just hope he can figure out that rotation of his
idk but when I’m progging and looking for a clear on ultimates or any other fights, I feel like I’m here because of the fight, and not trying to seek attention because I have some legend title, I personally will not feel fulfilled and felt the title is useless if I bought a clear or using some cheats like these.
@Bunlieve Its not just cheating. I feel that buying runs also cheapens it... but at least with people that buy runs you can tell. Private logs or they have that random single clear of TEA with a 90 parse, but their only other records is a 5 on P1S or something.
Would you still do ultimates if they gave you absolutely no reward?
If you answer no then you are not in it for the “fight”. Stop lying to yourself
Sqenix will eventually block any kind of mod and addons because of a few bad apples.
That is very unlikely
@@mosley3485 wanna bet? Wanna bet, that this, then the billboard thing and everything goin very public and very loud will insentivise SE to do something...
@@GhostAeonWolf The only thing they can do about it is patch the game to try to fix what the mods pull from, which will end up with the modders just finding a new way to do it. Anything that scan your pc for mods is illegal in Japan, so they can't.
I would also like to point out, he's using a ability mod to change what the effects look like too. If the FFXIV and ExWoW players keep this shit up, add-ons will be a ban on site.
And I thought I was bad for havin a trigger that made a loud sound in my ear when someone was doing a ready check
this is crazy but i would actually enjoy the game more if you could zoom out that far
I swear you used to be able to? Maybe I'm thinking of WoW. One of the two had their max camera distance lowered at some point.
Bird's eye would be an interesting feature, I'm not sure if it would change how ff encounter design works.
I DO know that they design current encounters to be manageable with their current camera, as they do for reaction times etc. They always give you what you need and maybe a bit of extra slack depending on difficulty.
@@vaan_ I mean, spinning your camera in FF can be painful since the camera is so slow (compared to other MMO's) but the stuff you're talking about is more of a chore than a challenge; if improving the camera's responsiveness and zoom distance would encourage the devs to come up with something aside from "stick odd mechanic indicator up high on the outside of the arena" I think this would be a win for everyone.
Lalas would certainly appreciate it.
@@vaan_ First let's chill with the personal attacks since we don't know each other, I have zero issues completing content.
Second camera feel is subjective, coming from playing swtor/wow/gw2 I feel that the camera in FF14 is sluggish and the zoom/fov is constrained; in both SWTOR and WOW I actually have my rotation speed set below max because the camera is so sensitive/fast, in FF I have it pegged to max. You may disagree with my opinion on the camera in FF and that's fine, I don't know of a way to objectively measure something of this nature and I doubt it's worth pursuing to have an internet debate with someone on TH-cam.
Third, I call it a chore precisely because I don't think it is challenging, when an experienced player dies to something of this nature I tend to categorize in the same vein as your sprint not going off, or letting your food buff expire and dying to a raid wide; an embarrassing mistake but one that has happened to everyone who has played long enough.
Once again, I want to emphasize that we are talking about something that is highly subjective and that I personally would prefer to be able to zoom out more and to have a more responsive camera; in turn I think this change would encourage them to alter how they design mechanics and would promote something different in future content (which may be better or worse, but at least it would be something new).
I went onto twitch and looked at 4 DSR streams. Of them, all 4 were using third party programs, 2 were relatively harmless UI mods, 2 of them gave clear ingame advantages including the zoom hack seen here (though not so exaggeratedly zoomed out). Its really depressing to see how easy it is to find cheaters on twitch.
I remember it causing a stir when World First was achieved, but the official media teams didn't want to announce it because the modding was blatantly obvious, and against ToS.
I really like that Earthly Star texture, much easier to see.
I mean the camera distance hack was a bit much but I'd like to zoom out a fair bit more than we can ngl
It is a giant spit in the face to the people who cleared the fight without cheats!
its a spit in the face to everyone that plays any game
nop it's a spit to mr.ozma for spending his time and efforts to make this raid and ppl just use cheat to clear it heck, i wont be surprised if yoshiP and mr.ozma decided not to make any more ultimate raids because of these shit
Ppl who use things like this instead of learning the fight are straight up trash
@@deathpresent101 I would not call them "cheats" but yeah lot of ppl use ACT and Timelines etc. Does it break ToS ? Yes of course. I mean : 8:15 :D
@@mosley3485 the guy removed his comments so i guess this is sarcasm
It sucks that literal CHEATS like this ruin modding for everyone. I think it's kinda dumb I can't stream with any UI plugins or ACT.
How can they even see where their character is zoomed out that far?
Don't worry, they'll just install another plugin that helps show where their character is when it's 3 pixels wide.
They aren't looking at their character, they're looking at the pizza generator at the bottom right.
they probably don't need to see, it's automatic
Isn't being zoomed out that far a cheat too?
these people are literally why we cant have nice things
I love Xeno whenever he goes," oooooooomg aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa WOaaaaahat The Fuck, and rings the bell." Its the best part. lol 9:51
After noticing the massive influx of ultimate weapons as opposed to before all these mods were popularize it's insane! There has to be a lot of players using cheats to get these.
Yoshi P is punching the air right now 👊
It's super subtle, but he's also got an auto targeting bot that uses his abilities on the primary target that other people in his group are attacking, through the target of target system. - so he never needs to target anything, and he'll always auto hit the group's main target.

OH NO anyway....
oh no, he doesn't have to mouse click 10 times/tab target to attack an enemy like everyone else
This is giving me weak auras vibes from wow. It just tells you want to do no thinking involved.
Its worse, the rotation was being done by a bot, you can tell by the way everything lit up.
@@SoulOfFenrir Actually disgusting
Tbf weak auras do a lot of different things. I have weak auras for example for one purpose - fixing my important buffs in one place on my screen rather than the buff bar, since it impacts my rotation slightly and makes my UI look cooler lol. Of course a lot of weak auras do much more cringe stuff particularly in pvp.
This got to a point its gonna cost us all the cosmetic stuff too isn't it?
Every “Tummy Tuesday” on my Twitter feed is basically ‘look how stretched my modded catboi is’, so maybe.
Probably not
I like the job icons as name plates though. The game proper could use that QoL.
I'll have to agree purely because someone in my FC likes to say they're not being toxic when they kill people and get mad at THEM because he refuses to pay attention to people's job. He just goes "I'm trying to do the fight not pay attention to the party" I just have to sit there hearing it and just never run content with him that's more complex because he refuses to understand part of the fight revolves around that. He doesn't wanna listen? I just don't do stuff with him, other then that he's fine as a player just...that one thing...always drives me nuts or he'll say "it's only 5% the buff doesn't help" and just /facepalm.
Changed from wow almost 3 years ago...yeah...thats what people brought to FF now. Fucking Weakauras...hope they get banned into oblivion for that.
I am sorry to say that cheating happens no matter if it is streamed. In fact it happens more behind the scenes as people do not stream cheating. Look inside and enjoy the game without needing to rely on other games being worse. Imagine loving your wife because your ex was worse and how it will end :)
@@mckidney1 just say youre using em and you feel bad people are saying you're trash and a cheater, no need to defend it at any chance u can :p
Dude's got balls to stream with all this on screen. Pretty sad that he needs a massive crutch, but eh, whatever.
You mean crutch?
@@AdrianRodriguez-zs1lo Yes

The only thing left to do in the game for me was raiding Savages and Ultimates. When I came to know this is what was happening, I just left the game and haven't been back since. Not going to have my effort invalidated or even risk playing with an actual subhuman who is a cheater.
Cheating this hard makes the game so boring T_T It's why I would never cheat. I mean, if you want to clear something put in the work, it's hard for a reason. this is just sad.
Is the same shit with automarkers man. Why the fuck do people think they created Ultimate? To give people the "ultimate" challenge. Stop looking for shortcuts just to save time and effort you know it's just sad
I hope these guys get a permanent ban
This is a normal WOW fight with add-ons at this point
Pfft even WoW hasn't had the "player detector" circle to never fail spread mechanics for 6 years now. WoW may have some "powerful" tools available, but even Blizzard puts the hammer down on things that are "too far".
@@amethonys2798 Barely though. I had never raided before and Weak Auras basically told me how to do every single mechanic in my first raid in legion and I was the #1 dps of the group because of it. Made focusing on rotation easy AF
Why the hell would you stream this?
pisses in the eyes of everybody who has ever taken the time to learn mechanics and do their rotations correctly studying the balance discord front to back, does make me extremely disheartened to know people are playing like this, why even bother working towards a goal others are practically handed because they cheat to get everything
To everyone begging for bans.. People know about these exploits now thanks to streamers covering the issue, and you can bet more people are using these plugins as a result. FFXIV doesn't even have a proper anti-cheat, and will never detect this and people only continue using it silently.
Tbh i think that was the plan, stream it and let streamers share it and now everyone wanna try his add ons , and SE will never ban you if they dont know ur using stuff, the gate is open for ever
anti-cheat doesn't do anything but keep the innocent players who use the least harmful plugins (UI plugins for example, like different color for different damage types, or that you can see the party buff/debuff timers)
people who want to use this will get around any anti cheat, people are asking for easy anti cheat, i don't trust that shit in an MMO setting, it already went haywire on Elden Ring where it would ban legit players because an cheater used an cheated ability to place an unobtainable item into the victims inventory.
@Anonymous Turkey my point was dont promote new ways to cheat for cheaters
Im glad this guys stream footage went viral so now I finally found out about Thordussys yaoi paddle
Bro's playing in RTS mode with that camera height
And I thought my static prog was bad, I see this.
I play very vanilla ffxiv. Too lazy to go through all that trouble tbh. They had to install all those. So there's that
But seeing the "Correct with a check mark" was funny. XD
I thought at the intro it was some badd editting for memes.
just want to point out that the cooldowns have counters on them naturally. but yeah
The sounds during this are literally what you hear if you watch any WoW raider.
Holy fuck I didn't know it could be THAT bad... And Inwas feeling bad for clearing Ucob using act call outs for nael ( dynamo chariot shit ). Guess there is always worse uh.
You didn't cheat, you just used a translator from Nael to normal English, right? ;)
@@TheSilverFred Totally 😂 Nael is such an ancient foreign language
oh yeah the mechanic about the boss calling out something with a voice line... that does not have voice acting xD
@@TheSilverFred Someone gets me.
the dude is literally raiding from the international space station...
Didn't you make an ACT guide?
He had all those cheats available and still couldn't do basic shit correctly. I laughed so hard at the gaze mechanic
his party messed it up not him
he played it correctly. Its pretty easy to see if you did the fight
@@anthony26812 if he didnt noticed its because he also clearly needs that addon lmao
this new Dragon Flight raid looks lit AF, good job Blizzard
Xenos not knowing a yaoi paddle, twelve bless this sweet summer child
Bawahaha the ending.. ohh that was a good pull!
Thordan with a paddle killed me
Please tell me people gonna report him and he's gonna get banned. This is beyond ridiculous
only the GMs have enough info to get them banned.
they use initials, so we don't know how the character is, we only know the local time/ET and Server Time, the comp they're running and the voices.
We can't report them even if we wanted to, but streamers/youtubers putting this on an spotlight helps the GMs take action, since they can filter on these specifics.
@@DarkDyllon the target of target seems to have full names and also the death recap seems to show full name
did they hurt you with that stream?
@@ich3730 i agree with the OP, and tbh i would find it hilarious if they got permabanned so i hope they did!
@@DarkDyllon The GM can't do anything with an outside video unfortunately, and a GM will even tell you this. You have to have proof from within the game itself whenever you report things. There's a reason a lot of gil seller PF's either died off or use strange wording to direct you out of the game...SE literally can do next to nothing at all the moment it goes to a discord or another website. The only thing they can do is what they have done, or making a request for a website to be taken down if they find one.
Whoa, Yoshi-P is probably gonna have to cancel some appointments, with this many third-parties at the same time lol
What even is all of these lol
This is sad.. I rather clear without all this crap or not clear at all.
shit like this is going to make SE take away our tiddy mods someday and that's not ok. this guy should be permabanned and maybe even more.
Not only is he deadass cheating but he slurps up every Papapachin job actions mod that comes out(can't blame him but some of them are either way too over the top for me)
I'm a fan of papachins battle mods too, but I agree. Some can be a bit much for general use.
This guy turns off his Map and the whole team starts slacking.
what if the map thing is not a cheat but just them broadcasting the drawing they made themselves of the mechs
This kind of shit is exactly why I don't like raiding anymore. I used to think I was actually decent at the game because I clicked all my buttons, learned the fights by heart, and worked my ass off to try to achieve top tier parses while being an effective and reliable raid team member. And then there's this shit, completely invalidating all that hard work. One of my ultimate statics fell apart because we learned one of the members was using very similar mods. I was so mad at this dude because I raided with him for literal years and never knew. I just thought he was actually that good at the game. I worked my ass off while he just turned on a few bots and we came out around the same performance levels. I spent hours studying fights (some of which were your videos, actually. Thanks again for the Kefka guide, lmao) and dudes like this just "beat" everything by letting a bot do all the work. Makes my DRK clears feel hollow and pointless, you know?
Imo you still did some damn impressive stuff, learning the fights and doing them the right way. Don't let one idiot take that away from you. You still achived something.
So sad that others don't understand what it means. Of course other people cheating in a game like this directly affects you if you play to have high standards for yourself even if you don't have super duper high parses it is still impressive to be able to clear many savage fights and these ultimates are the next level of mechanical fight design in this game. Its just like fighting games. It completely diminishes a lot of desire to be good and improve, go after big titles, other such prestigious ranks/winning tournaments/etc, if you discover that others have done the same thing by cheating. It really makes you wonder if there's truly still any value in your hard work and effort.
I don't even understand whats so hard about it which is what the worst part is. None of them (cheaters, people who say "it doesn't matter") understand what it is to go after the highest satisfaction of skill and victory in a video game. When you treat your hobby seriously and find great enjoyment at going as hard as possible in games, there's nothing like it.
