Hi hi ! I missed a small optimization note - just like Stargaze II, Stargaze I can also be instantly cancelled with skills, so instead of just doing something like Stargaze V -> Dodge -> Fire -> Stargaze II, you can do: Stargaze V -> Dodge -> Stargaze I -> Fire -> Stargaze II, for a little extra damage! Basically - you should be fitting a Stargaze I before every natural skillcast that follows a dodge.
I'm Having trouble with 15:51 Stargaze IV > cancel dodge > Fire > Cast time back always back to Stargaze I no matter i spam it. Quick Charge already lv 30
Hey Maygi, love your Io guide! I just have two questions: 1. Do you consider Io to be one of the strongest characters in the roster and if so, where would you place her? 2. Is her best weapon the Colossus Cane Omega? Thanks!
You really are the best. You playing relink might just be the best thing to happen to the community. Superb guides, incredible depth, and top tier presentation.
Thank you for this amazing guide! I've really taken it to the next level as Io, and am surprised by how often I'm grabbing MVP from Rackams and Namaryas.
Wow, this was really well done! I especially liked the graphics when going over the skills. More creators need to put in this type of effort. So many "guides" have flashy titles and barely make an effort
as a math nerd theorycrafter puzzle solver addict myself i want u to know i sent this guide to more than one io player i know after shitting on every guide they used previously and specifically said “everything in this guide is optimal i trust this person with my life. shes a genius” ur the best maygi 🖤
Looked at your guides from other games, always thought you are amazing. Was always too scared to cancel my stargaze too early and now i know "there is no too early" for that. Thank you so much!
Amazing work: from the video editing to each detail, piece of information and data you share with us. I can't imagine the amount of time for doing this. You are a true Magical Girl
I've used your guide for deep dungeons in ffxiv, I'm so happy to discover you covering my favorite character in this game too! I so glad to know I'm in good hands with the math to back it up. Thanks for the great guide as always, i learned a lot about optimization with things other guides haven't mentioned like pushing out stargaze ii for maximizing dps, and the difference between cancelling stargaze ii vs v with skills/dodge, im excited to try it out. Also thank you for including small things like cd time and multipliers on the skills/attacks, it's so hard for me to visualize what i should be doing to optimize without them, or things like how quick cast doesn't stack with not leylines, which i didn't feel like it did but it's very nice having confirmation it doesn't.
Another great vid! I really like the scene transitions and the effort you put into making all the visual guides/tables etc! It makes it very easy for me to learn.
This is BY FAR the best guide creator I've watched till now. No disrespect to the other creators but I have to admit this guide is so clean and well detailed. My only wish is a guide for all characters like this.
aww thank you, I'm glad you liked it !! I DO want to cover other characters eventually, but as you might imagine, it's a ton of work for this format haha ~ something I'm going to experiment with later will be some super short-format guides (like 2 minutes or something), so I can have some more bite-sized projects in between the bigger ones (also because I think they're totally useful!)~
The best GBF detailed crew guide I've seen. Waiting for other crew members from you! Was wishing there was a consolidated site for skill cooldowns and damage cap in the same manner you presented. That would be godsend
Each time I think im about to stop playing io to try someone else I find something new that makes me want to keep playing her. Thank you so much for the guides and all the hard work you've put into everything you've given us!!!
I’ve been following your guide since you first posted it on Reddit, it was fascinating to see it grow with more detailed information as the days went by. Thank you for spending the time and effort to do this, without your guide I’m fairly certain my Io wouldn’t be as strong as it is.
I just found this by searching Io build and it's by far the best build guide I've seen........ I've been gaming 40 years so this is big praise. I really hope you have all the other characters.........and I will be looking for you in other games. Top quality work. 👍👍👍
waaa thank you !! I'm glad you liked the video ~ I want to get to other characters eventually, but there's so much to master with every character. I am totally not qualified to make other character videos until I give them their fair share of time to learn all the tricks - I still have plenty of content to cook for Io alone, which says something about the depth of the mechanics !
oh dont worry if the lucilius raid is very mechanic heavy and isn't a pushover i'll definitely cover that in ff14 raid style guide (^: i love illustrating mechanics
would be interesting to see raid planner for fight for simple mechanic like supernova in proto like G1 G2 G3 G4 for each turret responsible and which corner they go to for to reduce a friendly hit or mechanic break down of some fight like i still have no idea why Pyet-A second firefly give less time to break all the orb. People clear the content no problem but I don't see any content creator talk about the detail of the mechanic mostly will be like just DPS it or just dodge it
For the weapon inbue, you are going to want Cascade 4/5 so you can get the most value from cascade. Unlike alot of other sigils, Cascade maxes out at 20 so if you get 15 from Sigil and 4/5 from Weap, its hot
Finaly! A "GUIDE" in YT, not a fking showcase and obligatory read of ingame descriptions. Argumented, well detailed, with options and foresight for tech used. Maygi are you single? Could i interest you in a blind date?
I came here because: no capslock, no BEST BROKEN CRAZY BUILD?!, no thumbnail of a guy soyjacking I stay because: incredible in depth-information thats impossible to find (cooldown in seconds? Damage cap numbers? Wikis? Ingame? No.), great visual information presentation, concise and easy to understand information, ingame footage of what youre actually doing, explanations of why NOT to do things from a design as well as mathematical perspective... This is amazing!❤ Could you please consider A) making add to the document a column with the base cooldowns of each skill from each character? B) making a guide like this for other characters? (Selflishly proposing my beloved Yodarha here)
Aww I'm glad you like it !! RUclips is full of clickbait nowadays and it's annoying so I always try to make the kinda content I would like to see haha... As for your inquiries... A) I think cooldowns are a nice thing to have for all characters! Though, it's the community that's helping to collect the skill data for others right now, and for some reason none of them are bothering with the cooldowns haha... guess I'll go get them myself in due time ~ B) I would love to cover more characters! But, it kinda takes a good amount of time to learn all the intricacies, I'm still cooking up Io tech as we speak - if I'm to cover other characters, I have a lot of git gudding to do first!!
ive been focusing on narm, eugen, and cag. now i wana try someone new and it was between percival and io. i was really looking forward to percival because his flame attacks just look cool but he seems to be incredibly basic. io seems much more involved to actually do good.
I believe gravity vortex should be a good link time extender. Abilities that persist for a long time and do many separate instances of damage usually are.
Oof, that note on Crit Damage sigils... I guess I never bothered wondering if it was additive with the 50% from the stinger masteries and whatever else is in the mastery tree. Gonna have to give my sigil setups a once-over.
Bro can a guide be any more perfect? An analysis on every skill, a Damage cap calculator (that calucated the damage cap for every attack), and little nuisances (like dodging between the combo rotation). Guide so good I ain't seeking any more gaps in info on the character lol. I finished making my Rackam, so I'm trying another character now. I wanted to try narmaya since her blue combo finisher, SBA aestetic looks cool and her butterflies reminds me of Utawaremono. I tried her, but then wanted a character with more utility with the mobility. Io seems fun with paralysis ( and it probably my favorite looking magic animation in the game); however, I need to understand the damage cap and combo playstyle and this guide satisfies all of my confusion and more.
Aww I'm glad you like it ! I do spend a lot of time on this guide format haha ~ so it makes me happy to see when people have the same burning curiosity that I do !
From the "Transmarvel" option in Siero's shop! All the Awakening+ sigils work on a knockout system, meaning you can get each one once, so you'll hit it eventually. (Transmarvel attempts are retroactive and you gain attempts based on how many times you did the other transmutations, it unlocks at ... level 100 or something, or at Maniac quests, I forget...)
Not even done. But this is an exceptional guide. Did you get the skills information off of a site or figured that out yourself ? Earned a like sub and comment either way. And will be on the lookout for more videos as you’re obviously about your quality. Cheers !
Where were you able to find those numbers for damage numbers for damage caps and attack ratios?? I need dat Just saw your google doc, do the numbers for other characters exist or only Io’s?
Everything was tested manually! Some other users from the community are helping gather data for other characters. So far, we have the Captain, Cagliostro, Ferry, Rackam, and Lancelot, with more to come soon!
@Maygi Hey! Thank you for your massive analysis on Io - it's obvious you put a lot of effort and love into this guide and I appreciate it a lot :) I have a question and I apologize if this was mentioned in the video as I skimmed through some parts. I always anim. cancel Stargaze V into a skill, but I see you mentioning dodge-cancelling first and then casting a skill. However, there are some moments in your video where you do cancel Stargaze V into another skill. Is there a reason for preference of dodge-cancelling the Stargaze recovery animation instead of skill-cancelling? I mean besides when all skills are on cooldown. Thanks again for the amazing video!
Hi hi! It's just some older footage here and there haha... wanted to mix it up with the scenes because, as you may imagine, 99% of the footage I collected was either PBaha or Pyet-A and I was like yeah its time for a shift in scenery
great guide super helpful. only 2 questions before getting the terminus weapon what weapon do you recommend? and what stone do you recommend slotting in weapon?
The crit and weak point weapons are both good (the weak point one has a much higher base ATK which is helpful in the early game), but the Ascension weapon is good when fully built. You need them all maxed out eventually anyway, though!
I never play Io but just about to, so I look for the guide. Your guide is very professional and it's make me feel stupid for some reason cuz I don't get it. LOL 😅
Awesome Guide! In the video Maygi says you have innate stout heart when casting star gaze? But on the dummy i get interrupted when charging star gaze still? EDIT: You get stout heart when you get the quick cast feature.
I literally sat there with a stopwatch watching the cooldown timer LMAO I can't believe that data isn't just there for us though in the skill description..
How do you determine each specific moves damage cap? That's the reason I subbed to you and just curious as to how you got that data? Thanks! Ex. Io's Stargaze 5 = 299,999 max capped with 3 orbs. Where can I see Percivals Schlachts Damage cap? I'm currently sitting at 591k with 65/65 damage cap and fully awakened terminus withh glass cannon. not sure if 591k is really the highest though but my attack glows on the dummy
To calculate the base damage cap, you just run a setup that's guaranteed capping and then reverse calculate it. For simplicity, I prefer to switch weapons off Terminus and unequip all sigils, putting on only raw damage sigils. Base damage cap = 54% from masteries + 20% from terminus = 74% Over mastery is important to account for as well; let's say you have 20% normal attack cap If you test a normal attack and cap at 19398, you can just divide it by your current cap (1.94) to get 9999, which is the natural cap!
Thanks for the insight! @@Maygi Last question, does Normal Attack Damage Cap for OverMastery counts for all input from Heavy and Normal attacks, including Combo Finishers and charged attacks?
Well, she doesn't use her Quick Cast passive, but Quick Charge sigils will definitely help her out a LOT as she'll be hard channeling way more than typical Io will~ with Warpath helping out NPC Io a LOT, however, you can still build her fairly close to a regular build (see the 1.2 guide for updates) - though, just avoid Mage's Savvy, as she will never use that as an NPC!
Very much worth the wait, great guide thank you for your work! My only question is how is skill damage calculated? Do skills crit on the same crit rate as normal attacks or is it just based on raw damage?
Skills are attacks that just use skill damage/skill cap modifiers instead of that of other attacks. The mechanics with crits and everything is the same!
Hi hi ! I missed a small optimization note - just like Stargaze II, Stargaze I can also be instantly cancelled with skills, so instead of just doing something like Stargaze V -> Dodge -> Fire -> Stargaze II, you can do:
Stargaze V -> Dodge -> Stargaze I -> Fire -> Stargaze II, for a little extra damage! Basically - you should be fitting a Stargaze I before every natural skillcast that follows a dodge.
Man, her kit is so deceivingly advanced... and I LOVE IT.
I'm Having trouble with 15:51 Stargaze IV > cancel dodge > Fire > Cast time back always back to Stargaze I no matter i spam it. Quick Charge already lv 30
@@mmkeigaThat might be because of your cooldown reduction. Without at least one line of Cascade/QCD, fire won't be up in time.
@@Maygi Found it sis, it’s because Last Mastery point : 300 % time after dodge
Hey Maygi, love your Io guide! I just have two questions:
1. Do you consider Io to be one of the strongest characters in the roster and if so, where would you place her?
2. Is her best weapon the Colossus Cane Omega?
Thanks!
Great job on the guide Maygi! :D You are awesome!
waaaaa thank u ;;; !!!
my goodness THIS IS THE WAY TO MAKE A GUIDE! its perfect the editing the visual the explenations.....my hats of to you. THANKS!
Thanks! good simple info!
aaaa thank u ;; !!! im glad it was useful !!
Absolutely FANTASTIC guide. SO much better than the competition.
God I hope you make more for other characters! GOOD STUFF
You really are the best. You playing relink might just be the best thing to happen to the community. Superb guides, incredible depth, and top tier presentation.
Great video with great explanation ! Also big thank you for the damage calculator and Io textbook !
Wish you the best :D
Thank you so much for including cooldown timers in the guide, it really helps!
You're welcome ! I can't stand not knowing any of the numbers, so I always make sure to get them in the guide ^^
Maygi you spoil us with all these in-depth guides and calculators you make for us. Thank you!
This is why I’m subscribed this amazing channel.
I am floored by the detail, humor and thoughtfulness of this guide. It should be the standard for the rest of the characters! Thank you!
this is surely the most cute tutorial ever
This is legitimately the most in depth guide I have seen yet.
Thank you for this amazing guide! I've really taken it to the next level as Io, and am surprised by how often I'm grabbing MVP from Rackams and Namaryas.
Just bout the game and this sold me. Your guides are amazing and I'm using you as my go to guide! 10/10 content
You are a mathematical goddess! This guide has helped me MAJORLY. Thank you so much, especially for the spreadsheet!
What a amazing detailed video and documentation. Thank you very much for this. Hope your videos get many views
Wow, this was really well done! I especially liked the graphics when going over the skills. More creators need to put in this type of effort. So many "guides" have flashy titles and barely make an effort

Looked at your guides from other games, always thought you are amazing. Was always too scared to cancel my stargaze too early and now i know "there is no too early" for that. Thank you so much!
Finally an insightfull guide that actually goes into details of the inner mechanics and complexities of a character.
I remember your xiv deep dungeon guides! Thanks for the guide in relink too, Io has been a ton of fun to play
The best guide I have ever seen about this game ! You're awesome !
Probably the most comprehensive relink character guide, love it!
Thank you Maygi for guides, helped me a lot with DD long ago and its a pleasure surprise to find your handbook now for granblue
These guides are pretty crazy. Love it thank you
suddenly this was in my recomends, I didnt use Io but the edits and info of everything was very useful. keep it goin!

This guide converted me from a Narmaya main to an Io main real quick, the nukes are just too satisfying when you land them.
i hope you do this for all chars. great guides as always
As a FF14 deep dungeon enjoyer, I’m glad you make guides for this game as well! Thanks 😊
I love Io she's my main with 35k atk power!!! Fantastic video!! Following
Really like this content. I wish their were more content creators with this level of detail.

Goodness, Maygi! I didn't expect you to cover Io, as she happened to be my main chara during matchmaking quests! Thanks, gonna watch the guides now!
Best guide i have seen so far.
I play charlotta for 500+ quest.
But now i am Io main because of this guide.
Let's gooooo!!! Thank you for this Maygi!!
Incredibly well done guide. Good job and thank you
Dang! This is the best guide out there! Will definitely subscribe for more!

How do you know of cooldown info? I wanna know those info for Djeeta.
I literally sat there with a stopwatch watching the cooldown timer LMAO
I can't believe that data isn't just there for us though in the skill description..
@@Maygi so we have to keep in mind that these CDs are post mastery. 10% CD reduction for each skill.
How do you determine each specific moves damage cap? That's the reason I subbed to you and just curious as to how you got that data? Thanks! Ex. Io's Stargaze 5 = 299,999 max capped with 3 orbs.

Base damage cap = 54% from masteries + 20% from terminus = 74%
Over mastery is important to account for as well; let's say you have 20% normal attack cap
If you test a normal attack and cap at 19398, you can just divide it by your current cap (1.94) to get 9999, which is the natural cap!
Thanks for the insight! @@Maygi
Last question, does Normal Attack Damage Cap for OverMastery counts for all input from Heavy and Normal attacks, including Combo Finishers and charged attacks?
@@PineUpAllYep! Both the normal and heavy attacks count as "normal" attacks. In Io's case, that means Stargaze is also a normal attack!
What would you recommend for NPC Io? I'm not sure if she actually uses quick charge and such.
Well, she doesn't use her Quick Cast passive, but Quick Charge sigils will definitely help her out a LOT as she'll be hard channeling way more than typical Io will~ with Warpath helping out NPC Io a LOT, however, you can still build her fairly close to a regular build (see the 1.2 guide for updates) - though, just avoid Mage's Savvy, as she will never use that as an NPC!
Very much worth the wait, great guide thank you for your work!
My only question is how is skill damage calculated? Do skills crit on the same crit rate as normal attacks or is it just based on raw damage?
Skills are attacks that just use skill damage/skill cap modifiers instead of that of other attacks. The mechanics with crits and everything is the same!
