    Gravity Macro Problem

    I got a problem with my Gravity Macro

    My macro is simple

    first line is /equip HQ wind staff
    2nd line is /ma "Gravity" <t>

    The problem is that it takes like 5-7 sec before Gravity starts casting

    I tried changing it pallet without success

    it does that from either SCH or RDM.


    If i use Gravity from the Menu there's a delay too but less important. Everyone in game tells me it's not normal

    Anyone have an idea?


    edit also tried first line /ma and equip on 2nd line, same problem

    Did you try a macro to see if it's a problem with the spell or macro?

    eg. 1st line is /ma "Gravity" <t>

    or try leave out the <t> or replace it with <stpc> or w/e?

    I assume your swapping staves for all your other spells so that wouldn't be the problem.

    Long ago, on my brother's Sidewinder macro, I had put /help on it. He was at Sky. He was mad at me for a month or so. My fav was putting /sh I AM SO GAY AND HORNY RIGHT NOW GUYS on his Jump macro.

    Good times.

    You're an asshole. If you're going to have something like that at least make it /party or /linkshell.

    I'd have been mad at the /help too. .____.

    One of the Dilbert desk calendars included "hilarious office pranks you can get fired for" which included replacing common words in the spellchecker ("the"-->"hte" and "its"-->"it's") or setting your fax machine to send a looped roll of black paper.

    How many of these can we think of for FFXI?

    So far,
    /help (cruel)
    /wait (unusual)
    /sh YOUR MOTHER WAS A HAMSTER (immediately obvious)
    /equip body "Hachiman Domaru"

    ...?

    /? (though I think that may do the same as /help, I forget)

    /? by itself would spam their chat with every possible / command.

    188 lines of spam.

    But really anyone doing this is reprehensible, I mean, we're not advising anyone to go and mess with a friend's macroes. That would be bad.

    /help is Call for help. So yeah, that would be really cruel.
