As a healer main in FFXIV, mouse-over macros for healer skills are life. All I have to do is bring my mouse cursor over to the party member's name in the party window and bam, they're being healed and I haven't even switched targets. That was something I was taught in Heavensward and it still works today. Example: /micon "Cure" /ac "Cure"

Similar to healbot, clique or, of course, mouseover macros in WoW, it sounds like. Been a Healbot boy for years myself. Surprisingly, I find healing with a gamepad super easy in this game, which makes me glad. I can do the nerd hunch when healing in WoW, and the slob slouch when healing in FFXIV. Soft-targeting (where you choose a target with the D-Pad, but don't hit the confirm button to properly "select" it, so you use a single ability on that target and it deselects it, like a sort of weird mouseover macro but for gamepads) is a godsend for this reason. I find it kind of sad that FFXIV's default friggin' CONTROLLER healing is infinitely more usable (to me) than WoW's default KB&M healing UI, and I don't count mouseover macros as part of the default UI. Sorry for the rant, just haven't really talked about this subject much.

The point is: use what works for you without sacrificing dps and healing ability.

Here's a tip for using macros that announce raise/invuln in party chat. Put your /ac in the second line before the /p line and add a at the end of the /ac line. That will allow you to spam the button to make sure it doesn't fail and it won't spam party chat because once you press the macro again it resets that 1s timer before the /p message goes out.

I find that on Bard the macro /ac "Nature's Minne" can be quite useful, was at least last expansion. means you use the ability on your target's target. When you're focusing the boss this is in most cases the main tank which is convinient when they are about to tale a solid beating.

For Dark Knight the target macro for Salted Earth is good but doe a target instead.. works wonders and prevents you from having to place it manually on big targets that you can't use the macro on.

@Surata24

jaj145 you don’t have to add a second line. If you have no target selected, it will default to the ground target reticle.

my favorite healer macro for my direct heals and esuna is. /macroicon "spell" /ac "spell" /ac "spell" /ac "spell" This causes the spell to go off on whoever im mousing over first even mousing over names of people in other alliance raid groups. This allows me to keep the boss targeted to see what abilities they are casting while also healing / removing debuffs. If I dont have anyone moused over it will go off on my target. You can also hold down right shift to disable mousover completely causing it to prioritize target. Now if i dont have a target or someone moused over it will cast it on me instead. There are things you must be cautions of though with this set up. Ive had it decide i wasn't mousing over someone when i was and it instead cast the spell on me. So use at your own risk. But Ive had it be rather efficient for me in the long run.

This is me for healing. Cheers! Mouseover macros always a must for me when healing.

As someone who plays on ps4 with controller, and wound up being the group's healer for a long time, I made a macro button that swaps to focus target (usually the MT). It's much faster and much more responsive than pressing the up/down directional buttons to try and select the player who's tanking for a faster heal/esuna/barrier. It's also decent for when you have an enemy that moves around, as you'll instantly target them so long as they're your focus target, and can get back to DPS'ing. /target

As a controller player the only macros I have are for the ground AOEs and target for Skirk and other tank cooldowns for off-tanking. The latter is especially important for tank switches and shields and you’re not fumbling in the party menu ever.

To expand on the macro for ground target AOEs, back when Shadowflare was a thing (rip) I would use a + macro. This is useful for bosses like Cloud of Darkness that have gigantic hotboxes or have their hotbox centers off a targetable surface. That macro allows for targeting of the boss first, but if it fails, it will then target the target of the boss ( = target of target) and typically place the ground aoe right under the tank. I don't recommend this for defensive bubbles, but it's quite useful for salted earth, etc. is also quite useful for certain targeted defensive abilities that you want on the target that is being attacked, so you don't need to swap off the boss.

Maybe mentioned (if so, added for emphasis), but some more tips: -You can use the autotranslate function instead of typing "action" . This really helps with oddly worded skills or really long ones and prevents mistypes, also you don't need the parenthesis anymore. -For healing (under a majority of circumstances) I use a macro for dpsing or putting up dots. That way I don't have to untarget my tank, but I can still get in some dps. -For skills used on other players (Mainly use these while tanking): I'm not a big fan of mouseover (just how I play), but I do use a party order , etc, for shields. Like Cover and Intervention (PLD) or Blackest NIght (DRK) that way all I have to do is hit a key to trigger the effect on someone without clicking on the party list and taking my attention off the boss (or whatever my main target is)

When I play a healer, I love to use mouse over targeting macros for my healing spells. It makes transitioning from healing to damage to healing again almost instant, I can just leave my mouse on the main tank in the party list and never untarget the boss, and if I need to adjust, I just need to move my mouse up or down very quickly. It makes healing to be very efficient for me.

I macro buffs but only in twos and only certain ones so I still have a level of control and not get hurt by latency. Or like the Dragonsight one, to either pick amongst the party list or mouseover so I don't have to click off a target. Also have a few for my tanks for things like Cover and that other party skills where it uses my target's target so if I'm off-tanking I can bubble someone or if picking up an add or aggro issues I can potentially protect and/or save a non-tank from dying.

One thing I'd suggest, when playing a healer, is to have a macro for your attack spells to use them while targeting your tank, if they're taking enough damage that you need to keep an eye on them. /ac "Spell" You can still DPS this way without having to change your target or focus, and you're guaranteed to hit the one your tank is wailing on.

One macro I know I have used in the past was the (Target of Target) Macro for my healers. Its not 100% but it allows you to stay on you person you are healing (most likely the tank) and cast DMG spells on their Target. While this has a draw back of if the person you are targeting has no target = no spell casts. Its hit or miss but was really useful for me when I was healing periodically in Raids from 2.X-4.X (not a HC Raider) Prob isn't needed as much anymore however just thought its something I would bring up.

As a healer the two macros I use the most are 1.) Swiftcast then Rez and 2.) Target of target for my offensive spells . Makes it so I can stay selected on the tank/party member and throw stones at enemies. Only issue is woth some fights where the foe I'm targeting is targeting something else. In those I have to target a party member in order to do damage to what I want to target.

I main DRK and probably my most useful macro is /ac “The Blackest Night” to help my co-tank. Also, my salted earth macro is set as /ac Salted Earth instead of so that I’m pretty much dead center and hits anything near.

I only macro movement abilities. For example, I've got Shukuchi macro'd to R3 (right stick click on controller, Macro #99 by default) since I aim it with that stick anyway. I've got it set with both regular use and with in the same macro so that I can move to a target immediately or free aim if I choose. Additionally, I put all of my job movement abilities into this one macro (Elusive Jump, Between the Lines, Repelling Shot, Corpse a Corpse, En Avant, etc)and it will only function for my current active job. I just start the macro with /merror off so that it doesn't keep telling my job can't use the other abilities. It works great.

I use macros as a healer, allowing me to still have the tank targeted and cast my damage spells on the tank's target as well as a swiftcast+ress macro. I also use a target macro with Salted Earth. I didn't know about the spell que though, so I might want to rethink the damage macros.

This macro will make it so that your skill that you're pressing will always apply to whoever is number 2 in your party (in 8 man content this is always the co tank which is why it works) /micon "Shirk" /ac "Shirk" /ac "Shirk" /ac "Shirk" (Max out all 15 lines of this, to ensure that the skill fires since, as mr.happy stated, macro's ignore the games queuing system) the other one: the Target of Target macro this macro makes it so you don't have to drop target to apply an ability to a desired member, in this case I put it on Aurora because it's a nice regen for whoever is tanking the boss/add what have you because it applies to the target of the enemy whether that be you/the other tank/a party member. /ac "Aurora" /ac "Aurora" /ac "Aurora" /micon "Aurora" and Finally a nice, niche meme one: This is the weapon glow glitch ;D use this simple 2 line macro to glitch glowing weapons so that they glow while sheathed /bm /sit

I admittedly used a combat combo macro and my biggest complaint with it was when I'd execute it if I was trying to run out of an AOE it'll still try executing it, turning you back around towards the enemy so youd have to turn around again, more often than not ending up getting hit by the AOE. One macro I love using when doing single target content is the Caster LB .

I do have an interesting question for folks out there and the mention of macros being used by handicapped players. First, a bit of background info: my mother has had multiple surgeries in the past and has what we casually call 'anesthesia brain', which has made it both difficult for her to remember the effects of some of her bard skills, as well as severely affecting her reaction time. That, combined with surgeries on her hands and her inability to use a mouse with added buttons on it for efficiency, has made partaking in fight and dungeons nearly impossible for her. It's hit her a bit hard because she truly loves this game, but has become very self-conscious because of her inability to do well in most later dungeons. My question to you all is, do you think, in her case, macros that condence a series of skills together would help her? Allow her to focus solely on avoiding AOEs while the macros themselves do most of the skill work? Of course, she'll not be running any savage raids or whatnot, and her damage wouldn't be the best, but just something that may allow her to do, say, a leveling or trial roulette.

I actually know of a macro that puts someone's rotation all on 1 button. There is not a loss of DPS either, since instead of executing different skills 1 by 1, it actually cycles the skills onto 1 button, allowing YOU to press them, therefore activating the skill-queue. if you're interested in it let me know!

I've 8 heal macro's which are almost the same as a healer, but thanks to this I can heal easily the player which needs to be healed by clicking on the correct button without losing target on the boss or mt. Also for raise I ve a macro with swiftcast + raise, and it targets the first death player in row. I ofc have also the normal raise on my actionbars aswell as the healing skills as backup. All this makes me a pretty decent healer who can keep the group alive (most of the times).

I macro Nature's Minne to always target the tank with (target of target since I will always be targeting the enemy), but sometimes it lags a little so I suppose or could be used if you always have tanks on top of the party list.

I use a few on my DRG. For Dragon Sight I use focus target and focus a player of my choice for each encounter. I also successfully condensed the two third combo actions together into one button based on which second combo action was selected. This is done without losing the ability the queue using the following general strategy: 1) When you press the macro, it swaps its self out for the normal skill which you can then press again to queue normally. Basically double-tap to queue it. 2) You use a /wait 1 line that is still running in the background even though the macro removed its self from the action bar. 3) after the wait line, you copy a hidden action bar to the original action bar that includes the original macro button (thus replacing the ordinary skill with the macro again) Unfortunately it's a bit clunky for condensation as you need to use an action bar for each possible variation of the action bar. With DRG 1-2-3 combo (where action 3 is being swapped), you need to make 2 hidden action bars for it to work. To do it for GNB you would probably need a hidden bar for each stage in the combo, and you'd be screwed if you needed to start the combo from scratch unless you set up a hotkeyed macro to get back to stage 1 on demand. Even if that tank cooldown macro worked in the desired order, I still wouldn't use it for two reasons. (1) the cooldowns have different functionalities and you want to to control which ones you use when, and (2) You often need to weave multiple cooldowns together to ensure you activate everything in time for a tank-buster. The inability to queue really screws with how fast you can activate them all within a global or two.

My favorite tank one is a shrink macro: /Micon "shirk" /Ac "shirk" This will target the second person in the party list, which if you haven't changed it at all, will be the other tank

For example, as a DPS, all the dps classes are top, then tanks, and then Healers, while as a Healer, Tanks are on top, DPS and then healers. So for me, like the OP, my Dragon Sight macro targets all the first 4 positions who are always DPS because of my party list sorting settings.

If you're crafting many items, I tend to hit the macro before the Synth window has opened, so the first macro command may be missed. Put a 1-2 second wait at the start of the macro, then you can hit synthesize and then the macro immediately without waiting for the window to open.

personally as a healer, just getting used to hitting the F1-F8 keys to choose the party member is faster, and the game is slow enough that you have plenty of time to target someone in between GCDs. setting a main target key so you can always be casting your offensive spells, then quickly selecting a party member and throwing an oGCD heal at them or a hard GCD heal at them is fairly fluid once you learn how to target party members directly, rather than fumbling with your mouse and click selecting will save you a lot of headache. of course, do whatever works for you. if using helps you cast asylum or similar helps you in some way, i'm not your boss.

My gf uses macros for her healing dps spells since she plays on controller, and it really helps her out a lot with her weaving and damage, not needing to leave the MT without heals at a crucial part where she's also weaving in dps spells and whatnot. Maybe you covered that in another video at some point, but maybe worth mentioning if you ever make another video in regards to macros.

I wouldn't recommend macros for ground AoEs like Salted Earth, especially if you are going to do Savage on at least average efficiency. You can easily double weave those without macros, but you risk losing uptime if you are not able to preplace them anywhere if the target is about to move somewhere

Here's afew tips about macros. 1: using /em makes all following text only apply to you. Example: /em wait 30 This will result in you being pinged in 30seconds. Noone else will hear it. Great for ast cards, important CD like No Mercy or Delirium. 2: Keep combat macros as 2 actions tops. Though I suggest only 1 action since you have to wait and entire second for the next move. However some people like their swiftcast res. 3: In chatlog settings you can try out all the sound effects and see the number they are. 4: Remember to always put channel name for your macro if you want it said in a specific chat or it'll say the text in your currect channel. This is however not always good to do as I like being able to switch between telling a party to tank swap in raids or telling other alliances in shout.

Best macros are when something is only available if it procs off a pre-req skills. So that proc'd skill goes into the macro line first and then the "3rd final" skill goes second. So you hit the macro, it looks for the 3rd skill, if its available to use, then it uses, if its not then the macro instantly moves onto the "2nd" skill again in the macro (no wait time for something like this). Monk is a good example because of the way its skills chain and only become available when used in a certain order 1-2-3 (heavy hitting 3rd & 2nd skills) /macroicon "Snap Punch" /ac "Snap Punch" (3rd level skill) /ac "True Strike" (2nd level skill) (buff/debuff 3rd & 2nd skills) /macroicon "Demolish" /ac "Twin Snakes" (3rd level skill) /ac "Demolish" (2nd level skill) (Self heal and heal buff) /macroicon "Second Wind" /p Mantra HEALS ARE BUFFED /ac "Mantra" /wait .5 /ac "Second Wind" /ac "Bloodbath" And for healers - namely Astro for me, i macro Swiftcast in with Raise skills /macroicon "Ascend" /ac "Swiftcast" /wait 1 /ac "Ascend" /p Raising

I like having "Target nearest enemy" on my Doom Spike (DRG melee AoE), because losing a target when fighting a bunch of grouped enemies sucks. Also will have to look into what kind of Dragon Sight macro I can make to make it as bearable as possible. (would rather not use the mouse-over one)

I love the macros. For those who dont know you can set a attack skill to target your targets target. So let's say your on Sch, you can set your broil to target the PLD target, aka the boss most times. This prevents you from having to untarget the tank and DPS between healing. I know for myself I sometimes forget to switch back and the tank drops super low then I'm scrambling to get them healed back up to safe levels.

A macro system I use involves party buffs such as Intervention, Cover, Heart of Stone or Blackest Night. It's lined up on my hotbars so that there's a button beside each player in my party, and I can mouse over to that player and smack the button to fire the party buff onto them. This allows me to mitigate other players without having to worry about losing target on my boss. It really does help me!

This video was actually super helpful regarding spell queue. I have a Dragon Sight macro that I use, though I'm on PS4 so instead of a mouse-over it's a focus target macro and sometimes, despite the skill obviously being ready the game would tell me it's not yet ready.

Raise macros with disparaging responses or quotes is my biggest pet peeve in 14's chat. Thanks, healer(s), I know I died for x or y reason, and yes, it is embarrassing, so you don't gotta make dying feel worse.

The only problem I found with that macro is that it won’t tell you which of the three possible targets the spell is actually going to. Sure it’ll try to hit the mouse-over target first, then your target, then you, but I often found that if my intended target was either out of range or out of line of sight, it would default to casting on me. So I removed the third line and haven’t had that issue since.

Sidenote: if you're going to make a macro for something like a defensive cooldown, do set the action in the line before the text alert, and add before the text so if you spam the macro to activate the cooldown, it won't show the text until 1 second after your last macro press. Example: /Micon "Holmgang" /ac "Holmgang" /p "Just used Holmgang, get ready to bene!"
