MobID

[Trequarta]

I want to start off and say I'm sorry if this has been answered because I must be too retarded to find it, Since the patch to (i believe it was .260) I have needed to replace the target name with the MobID for my grinding profiles. Where/how do I get the mobid? I assume it has to be right infront of my face and I'm missing it. Any help is appreciated.)

Easiest way is to look the mob up in xivdb.com then the MobID will be listed as part of the url directly before the name of the item or mob name.

For instance clicking the link for the ornery karakul takes you to the following url:

h t t p://xivdb .com / ?monster / 795 / ornery-karakul
|----------- Base URL -----------|- ID -|-- Mob or item Name --|


You may also use the built in tools (Profile Creator / Reborn Console Plugin) but honestly i always have a browser window open on another monitor so a quick search yields the mob id I need.

If your near it run the following code in reborn console

ClearLog();
var units = GameObjectManager.GameObjects;
foreach(var unit in units.OrderBy(r=>r.Distance()))
{
Log("{0}-{2}-{1}",unit,unit.NpcId,unit.GetType());
}
}
