Hello everyone! As I keep getting new skills, I've been tweaking my macros to make them more effective in terms of mp consumption. I still haven't perfected this, so I ask you to share your "learnings" and macro setups (if you want to b:surrender )

I will post a screenie of mine tonight, cause I'm at work right now! b:quiet


Ok, I have:

Support Macros

#1 Single buffs
#2 AoE buffs

Attack Macros

#3 Wield Thunder, Cyclone, Plume, Cyclone, Plume, Cyclone, IH, Cyclone
#4 Wield Thunder, Cyclone, IH, Cyclone, Wield Thunder, Cyclone, Plume, Cyclone
#5Cyclone, Plume, Cyclone, Plume, Cyclone, IH, Cyclone, Plume
#6 Debuffs

I've been experimenting with putting IH on my attack macros, but I find it's sometimes a waste of mp. Gotta test it out further. ^^

    I only have two macros: one for normal buffs and the other for the 1-hour aoe buffs.

    I used to have a combat macro, but on early versions of the game, if one attack gets interrupted, the whole macro gets cancelled, so I learned not use them on combat.

    This can be recommended for healings also, specialy when healing the tank. Using a macro may not be a good idea since you need to be aware in case someone's messes up and gets killed, stole aggro from the boss and a party wipe is on the run, or any other unwanted situation.

    Well, I set up some of these Macro:

    1. Single Buffs
    2. AoE Buffs
    (self explainatory ^.^)

    3. Ironheart, Wellspring, Ironheart, Wellspring...
    (Macro Heals, if tank doesn't need to be purified I can use this and just watching, go AFK or doing etc. xD)

    4. Plume Shell, Ironheart, Sleep, Elemental Seal, Spark, Cyclone, Wield Thunder, Ironheart...
    5. Purify, Ironheart, Sleep, Dimensional Seal, Spark, Plume Shoot, Razor Feather, Ironheart...
    (Quick PvP/ PvE setup against #4 melee and #5 arcane... the choice to use Cyclone/ Plume Shoot before using nuke Thunder/ Razor is sometime to bypass HP charm for PvP)

    6. Cyclone, Plume Shoot, Cyclone, Plume Shoot...
    7. Wield Thunder, Cyclone, Ironheart, Cyclone, Wield Thunder/ Plume Shoot, Cyclone, Purify/ Wellspring
    (Grinding Macros... #7 combinations are varies based on the current mobs)

    I use macro a lot, especially when I have to kill 80+ mobs/ solo grind. And I have no problem with MP usage, as long as it's more effective. Btw, I was very angry when all macro get reset after the previous update patch, because it tooks some times to remember and set them up again -_-


    nb: Anyway, all Macro works as long as they're not interrupted b:victory

    Well, unfortunately I haven't tested out with attack macros too much, so the only 2 macros I have are for single buffs, and aoe buffs.


    I tried a combat macro at one point, but it kept getting interuppted, so I stopped using it.


    But, based on what others have said, I may try to set up combat macros once again. :D

    Too bad you couldn't have a healing macro for party members no ? I guess the best you can do is hotkey 1,2,3,4, according to how many members our in the party and then hit heal icon accordingly.

    The macros in this game seem really limited. As a Cleric I want to be able to heal party members fast. One push of a button should be all that is needed.

    Walk behind enemy is the loop button; put it before the skills you want to loop. Do not question this logic. It works.

    I got several attacking macros, since my cleric is hybrid, and gears are quite good (for the level, and LOTS of - chan), there generally built around that. And some of these aren't actual macros, however these are combinations i use.

    Buffs/Debuffs:
    1) AOE buffs
    2) Single buffs
    3) Elemental Seal > Dimensional Seal

    Heals:
    1) Repeat > IH (Doesn't work all that good
    2) Repeat > IH > Wellspring Surge

    PVE:
    1) Wield thunder > Cyclone > Plume Cyclone > Plume > Cyclone > Plume
    2) Cyclone > Wield > Cyclone > Plume > Cyclone > Plume > Cyclone > Plume
    3) Elemental Seal > Purify > x2 Spark > Wield > Cyclone > Plume > Cyclone > Plume

    PVP:
    1) Wield thunder > Cyclone > Plume Cyclone > Plume > Cyclone > Plume
    2) Chromatic > Elemental Seal > Purify > x2 Spark > Wield > Cyclone > Plume > Cyclone
    3) Chromatic > Elemental Seal > Purify > Tempest

    Notes:
    PVE #2 Works well against butterflies and undines. Butterflies (unless they have increased HP) can't hit me, and undines generally hit me between 0 - 2 times.

    PVE #3 Is for DDing, achieving maximum damage output. However, if timed with dragons, a tempest can work out ALOT better.

    PVP #2 is good for pking, providing you get chance to sleep them (and they stay that way), and you time it correctly. Theres also another version of it, replacting Wield with Cyclone, and the following cyclone with Wield, that combo is use for ticking the charm then quickly killing them.

    Currently just got 89 on my cleric, with hell cyclone, if i figure out any new combination i like...I'll post it here b:bye

    wow lazy x.x I think finally fantasy XII might be more your style

    It is not hard to heal party members fast, all you have to do is click their name in the party window and you target them then push a heal button.
    One hand on the mouse and one hand over your f keys, really not that hard.

    there is also the shift-x to select the x member o the team (where x is between 1-5). maybe i can create a toolbar with all ih on 1-5 and just shift-x,x to heal the member i want.

    I am not a macro user except for buffs but this might be handy to know.

    I honestly can't stand macros outside of buffs...I have one macro that I slapped together in a TT once, because it was 3-1 with just me, one other cleric, and a barb, and it was taking forever b:surrender I hate that I feel trapped in the macro if something happens that I need to be flexible for. Also the reason I hate BB, I can't adapt to the situation. Although you can stop a macro, I'd much rather just press the buttons and have the freedom in case something goes awry.

    Kind of works...I think most I've had it spam heal is 3 times before it gives up.

    /dumb like you can get 2 sparks with that combo.

    Unless you've already got the two sparks? Not sure if your misreading x2 spark as two double sparks or whatever (wonder if they stack?). By x2 i meant double spark, just in case.

    However, if you already got full chi, you can do that combo.

    who are you trying to kill.
    Dunno, it's not a very good combo however. It's my lazy macro b:surrender Was working half decent on Adroit though, if that counts for anything? Works pretty good on LA/AA mages and some venos. But as previously stated, it's my lazy macro (as its mainly used in pve).

    On a side note, I can't wait for 90. Bring on the gears. Oh and I'm hybrid for pve. Not full int before anyone thinks so.
