    You can also throw an /aoe before/after the cast if you want to cast on single target then switch back to aoe spells after.
    With /ac "spellname" <st> How do you select party members? any shortcut or?

    None, sadly. Targeting definately needs work in the game.

    I generally just try to lineup best with friend since I duo, which makes it a bit quicker on getting the spells off fast... good luck if you're around alot of mobs/people though.

    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.

    [Current Issues]

    - If an item name contains a "+ [number]" at the end (e.g. "+1," "+2," etc.), players are not able to equip the specified item through a macro command.

    Currently, equipping items through macro commands works in the following manner:

    Example 1) If you only possess the item "Dagger," triggering the macro command "/equip main Dagger" will equip the item "Dagger" on your character.

    Example 2) If you only possess the item "Dagger +1," triggering the macro command "/equip main Dagger" will equip the item "Dagger +1" on your character.

    Example 3) If you possess the items "Dagger" and "Dagger +1," triggering the macro command "/equip main Dagger" will randomly choose and equip the item "Dagger" or "Dagger +1" on your character.
     
    Example 4) If you possess the item "Dagger +1" (or possess the items "Dagger" and "Dagger +1"), triggering the macro command "/equip main "Dagger +1" will not equip either of the items.

    *If you input "Dagger +1" without the quotation marks, the system will recognize it as "Dagger."

    We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your patience.

    /eaction 1 "Aegis Boon" off

    If an action name is omitted, the action currently equipped to that slot will be removed. Basic class actions cannot be removed. Slots are designated by the numbers 1-30.
    >>Subcommds:
    main Set to main hand.
    off Set to off hand. If a subcommand is omitted, the action will be equipped to the appropriate hand.
    Actions usable in either hand will be equipped to the main hand.
    >>Example:
    /equipaction 10 Provoke
    (Equips Provoke to action slot 10.)
    There is currently no way for the game to know which ring to equip when you have multiples of the exact same item.

    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.

    This is incorrect, it's close though. I had to use sub instead of off. So it would be /eaction 1 "Aegis Boon" sub

    It seems you pretty much always use sub instead of off.

    Yeah, my bad. Gear equip macros are the same way.

    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

    Create a macro or two or three, depending on how many of your bars you use, with this on each line: /eaction # "" (# corresponding to the action bar slot you want to clear).

    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..

    All words in an item have to be capitalized. Should look like this: /equip hands "Smithy's Gloves"

    edit: Forgot to add that if the item is colored, that has to be included, too.

    ex: /equip feet "Leather Shoes (Red)"

    Aha, it was the capital letters, thanks!
