Any simple guides? I can't even figure out how to drop in the needed spells.

    That was helpful, how do you make it repeat itself? Say I just want IH to be repeated over and over?

    As the guide states at the bottom, use the mislabeled "Walk Behind" icon at the beginning of the macro to make it repeat.

    Generally, macros with just "Repeat > Skill" don't work too well, even if the cooldown is covered by the cast. To get around this, just add a second spell. For clerics, this normally becomes:

    Repeat > IH > Wellspring

    Although depending on your set up, it's often more worth while to simply weight your IH key.

    Out of the 5 classes I'm playing; I've only found macros to be good for a Wizard, unless I'm mult-ibox healing with cleric.

    Is there a way to make empty time between spells cast in a marcro? Also you can't have the same spell over and over? I tried with mystic and it just did the first two spells and not the rest.

    As for empty spaces in macros to add a little extra time for cooldowns doesn't work. As soon as you save the macro, it compresses the skills together and removes spaces.

    Mystics' casting time is much shorter than the older races, so yes, you can use the same skill over and over for them. For older races, if the cool down time is equal to or greater than the cast time, then the macro will interrupt itself and stop. <.< This is why I don't trust IH macros, since they almost ALWAYS interrupt themselves, unless you have a large amount of -channelling gear.

    I think no matter how much of channeling EQ you get you cant cast IH > IH > IH repeatedly.
    Probably you may get a few time but not endlessly probably stop at 2/3 times?

    Channeling faster doesn't means cooldown faster.
