Do just "Square Maple Shield" don't include the +1.. I had a +1 helmet in a macro that wouldn't work until I took out the +1 part.
Also does anyone know how to equip multiple of the same item? For example equipping rings/earrings... it will only equip on 1 side with the macro saying "That item is already equipped" even though I have 2 rings in my inv it's only equipping 1.
I'd like to know this too. With this macro:
/equip L.index "Copper Ring"
/equip R.index "Copper Ring"
It equips the first Copper Ring it finds in your inventory to L.index, then takes that same damn ring, removes it from L.index and plops it into R.index. Genius.
I really hope they fix the speed of macros and their tendency to skip lines.
Hit macro...
equips item...
equips item...
completely skips a macro line...
equips item...
10 seconds later...
equips item...
holy balls...
skips macro line...
yeah i would like to know as well, i use macros all the time, but i dont get some stuff to work, like equipping two of the same rings.
Also, how do you equip an action into your offhand via macro? If i try equipping "Aegis Boon" with a macro the skill wont be enabled because it equips the skill into the mainhand.

There is currently no way for the game to know which ring to equip when you have multiples of the exact same item.Originally Posted by Lodestone
Just started messing around with macros today, and am disappointed at how retarded the system is. Macros in this game don't really confer that any advantage in battle, etc., so there really is no reason to limit it that I can see.
To do everything correctly and cleanly, it takes 72 lines. That's basically for a full equip/reset of gear and actions/traits/abilities.
I'm mostly worried about the gear. Since every action does gear damage, I want to remove things that aren't helping with the job to minimize damage and repairs.
Hopefully we'll see some kind of real macro utility in the near future, because I seriously doubt they're going to give us as many lines as would be useful.
When changing to a lower class with less action points, how can i get it to reset my action bar to nothing before the macro executes?
Thanks
Ok, I may just be being really stupid or something, but I can't seem to get gear equip macros to work. I'm trying things like "/equip Hands "Smithy's gloves", but it wont work..
