10 MUST USE macros for FFXIV to have a better gaming experience!

[@Coreycry]

Up to date 8th April 2023, macro for quest with writing something: /micon Interject /s Mol coffee break free kupo nuts dream bigger his whiskers, snae ling Please, Feo Ul, I need you O loveliest of branches, please grant me your succor!

That awkward moment when everyone in the hunt train uses a follow macro and no one moves.

[@BunBossFFXIV]

Omg that would actually be funny haha

[@Gemini_Godhand]

Bwahahahaha!!!

[@annabellemacdonald]

If you struggle with lag spikes, some battle effects macros can save you from crashing. /battle effects party off /battle effects self off /battle effects others off /pet size small ( effects how you see scholar/ summoner pet) /nameplatedisp other 3 ( turns off PC names) You would also need a macro for your normal settings^ great for big hunts and Alliance Raids.

[@michaelgerlach7137]

the job change one in the /gs line if you add the glam you like for that job after the gearset number you can also further customize the look of each job no matter that they all use the same gear (ie /gs 3 12 3 being the job you're changing to 12 being the appearance you want it to have)

I am black mage main too.. and that Aetherial Manip you made, is a godsend to me. Trying to click on someone last minute and THEN click the icon takes WAY TO LONG, this is faster. Also, I find healers are usually in the best spot too.

[@ashbyarmo]

Add swiftcast and you can do it on the move too: /micon "Soul of the SUMMONER" item /snap motion /gearset change 8 /ac Swiftcast /ac "Summon Carbuncle"

[@enikata7349]

@@ashbyarmo Oh that sounds good, I'll give it a go

[@redgeoblaze3752]

For my Aetherial Manipulation, I use a priority system First is my target Second is focus target Third is the fourth party member. In 8-man content, usually you don't want to zip to where the tank is, so I go where the healer goes. It does have some issues though. If I'm not close enough to my first priority, it'll just try again with the next, and that can cause some unexpected outcomes.

[@Roar8891]

/micon "Soul of the Warrior" item Changes the Warrior icon to the soul crystal glamour for HUD when using job changing macros work with any job you have their job crystal unlocked

[@Khalmidgar]

I saw a macro the other day that looked very useful. It will either mount up, sprint, or use peleoton depending where your at or what job your on/what you can use where your at.

[@BunBossFFXIV]

Already shared that one 😅🤣 it’s the sprint macro updated one

[@kimberlyhurlbut4819]

Love Macro 1, I've gotten a little creative with it and use it for all of my jobs. Also I would have never used Macro 5 if I didn't see this vid first. I am so happy that I came across this vid and will definitely start using it.

[@Laviathan50]

Thx for this vid. I took macro 5 and altered it slightly to use in 24 man raids. I set tank as focus and then auto follow so I'm always with my group. Before it was a pain because every time you phase/teleport it cancels focus. This meant you would have to click on tank>R click on tank HP>then set as focus. This became tedious while trying to stay mobile

[@BunBossFFXIV]

Omg genius!! I’m totally doing that

[@nicknicksiren]

Some of these are nice QoL, but none of them are "MUST USE" macros.

[@ronnieblastoff4083]

Imagine going through an entire level 90 dungeon realizing you never had tankstance on.

[@BunBossFFXIV]

Haha it usually just gets to the first mob lmao before everyone starts yelling at me 🫣😅😅😅

[@Kazagari]

This is video has a lot of wonderful QoL, thank you! Don't know how I didn't find this sooner. And funny thing is just yesterday I did a roulette (I'm a healer main) and noticed the BLM constantly jumping to me, and I wondered how they were to quick. It must have been a macro'd manipulation which is brilliant.

[@ThePawn02]

For island sanctuary, I use a class (not job), so something I've already got past 30, say, Archer instead of bard. I have a whole gear set and hotbar list, glamour, etc for Archer, so I have a clean set up. I also do this for a class I want to RP with or just have a bunch of emotes on my hotbar instead of abilities.

[@AceBradMan]

That last macro gave me an idea for making one for shirk when tank switching

[@tetridanoh2583]

Damn! I love your glams! Thx for the video btw.

[@BunBossFFXIV]

Thank you :D

[@terikimbro9154]

Thank you for making such great videos. You have helped me through several issue in FFXIV! Looking around I didn't see the mentioned "Tribal" macro anywhere. Did I overlook it?

[@zydeox1221]

I use mouse over for aetherial manipulation. Basically i can over the mouse in a player in game or have it hovered above a certain player in the party chat and i'll dash to them without targeting. Macros are ultimately unreliable in combat, but this skill is one of those where it's super bothersome to target someone, measuring if it's safe or not then actually pressing the skill.

[@GaleGrim]

I set up two hotbars to be un shared (mine are 8 and 7 cause 10 and 9 are for something else) and put my Single target rotation abilities on one bar, and my AoE on the other, leaving space in the 9th slot on each for two macro, the first macro swaps hotbar 1 for 7 and goes on 8, the other swaps hotbar 1 for 8 and goes on 7. That way I can hit one button to switch from "AoE mode" to "Single Target Mode" The macro look something like this: /Macroicon [first Attack of single target combo] /hotbar copy "current" 7 "current" 1 /Macroicon [first Attack of AoE target combo] /hotbar copy "current" 8 "current" 1 Then I set those hotbars size to like, 60 so they take up nothing for screen space. and make them slightly transparent(I don't wanna hide them encase I ever have to edit them on the fly, like if they remove an ability or something.) Now I never fumble my rotation by hitting like, an AoE skill when I need a single target, or vice versa, it's also frees up bar 2 for buttons I need regardless of AoE or single, like raid buffs and tank invulns. Oh, and not a macro, but under actions>general their is a button you can put on your hotbar for duty actions like the one you need in lakshmi. And I believe system>keybinds>system has an option to bind level sync to a button called "general duty action" or something, but I don't know if that works on controler or not.

[@TianarTruegard]

Ok, now that's a great idea using macros to swap your single target and AOE abilities on the hotbars. Way easier than having to hold key combos when wanting to do AOE. I might have to play around with this.

[@macairhead5137]

On controller you can use R3 and L3 on macros 98 & 99 in the settings

[@tessajalloh3914]

One of my favourite macros is my 'lazy rez'. it's a targetless rez that hits a priority list, beginning with the other healer, then the tanks, then the dps in descending order. So if someone dies i can swiftcast, then rez without having to scroll the party window.

[@starlight55971]

Care to share it?

[@tessajalloh3914]

@@starlight55971 sure thing~ bit of a long macro, but you'll also need to arrange your party list on healers as Tank, DPS, Healer. Peiority is tank 1, tank 2, healer, DPS 1,2,3,4 /ac "Raise" /ac "Raise" /ac "Raise" /ac "Raise" /ac "Raise" /ac "Raise" /ac "Raise" /ac "Raise" /micon Raise And of course for other healers, substitute Raise for your class's equivalent.

[@TianarTruegard]

@@tessajalloh3914 I usually have a "fast rez" macro for my healer jobs with tank prioritized. /ac "Swiftcast" then /ac "Raise" followed by the rest of the group.

[@macairhead5137]

For controller players: you can assign macro 98 & 99 to your L3 and R3 buttons! I use sprint and levelsync macros on those buttons. Very handy!

[@GeraltGK]

Hi, Those are very good macros tyvm for sharing, especially the last one, this is my fav: I use levesyn on with Dismount, target enemy /levelsyn on /ac "Dismount" /targetenemy give it try

[@SilverNightbane]

That BLM Aetherial is actually pretty useful. Makes me wonder why I never thought about making one XD

I'm definitely gonna have to start using that fate level sync macro, that seems very handy

[@kingkiller546]

Just thought I'd share a couple of Macro's which were inspired by this video So I use 2 mount macros (1 for multi seat and my mount roulette), 1 has Sprint and Peloton and the other has Peloton and levelsync (because sprint works in combat and Peloton dosn't so sprint can be used during pulls. I also incorporated Company Chocobo stances: /merror off /micon Sprint /ac Mount Roulette /ac Sprint /ac Peloton /companionaction Defender Stance /merror off /micon Lunar Whale mount /mount "Lunar Whale" /levelsync on /ac Peloton /companionaction Healer Stance This one is basically combining two of your macro's into one /joy motion /party Hiya Everyone! /ac Royal Guard /ac Defiance /ac Grit /ac Iron Will /ac Kardia /em is giddy with excitment! /battlestance motion /party

[@startrek8914]

I play both console and pc this is life saving ty so much

[@BunBossFFXIV]

Your welcome 🙏😻

[@METALmurdererOG]

Macro 10 is a lifesaver, but I use /merror off /macrolock /micon "Aetherial Manipulation" /target /ac "Aetherial Manipulation" /nexttarget Targets the Focus Target I set at the start of the fight (usually a healer), poofs to them, and retargets the thing I was fighting. Only really use it in Savage tho

[@tessajalloh3914]

you can strip this down by adding your target to the aetherial manipulation line. So it would change to /ac "Aetherial Manipulation" That way it will send you right to your focus target without switching targets at all, improving your uptime by a few miliseconds.

[@METALmurdererOG]

@@tessajalloh3914 I did not even think of that (and have no idea why NOW KZbin is notifying me that you commented >.>) I appreciate it :)

[@GaleGrim]

Oh, a useful macro for ninji might be /ac Shukuchi /ac Shukuchi That way you go right to target if you have one or right to targeting mode if you don't. You could also use to go to focus target.

[@MsGrumpyKat]

[@BunBossFFXIV]

Ahhhh do it!! They are so great for added convenience

[@y2j514]

I think I'm missing something. If your tank stance is already on, and you use your "Hi" macro, it will actually switch it off?

[@Nehji_Hann]

/bm /groundsit /automove /automove This lets you have the glowy weapon and then automatically stands you up The only probable issue is that you must face the camera in the same direction you want your character to face or you'll turn yourself around

I will say with Macro 9 - this with "Tank stance on" is very good. I am adding "Turn tank stance on in my "Hello" emote" you put here good idea.

[@Manudyne]

Nice! What's the macro to automatically say something in the chat when you use a certain spell or skill? It's like to say something silly like "IT'S MORBIN'TIME" everytime I use the limit breaker or something.

[@nekotranslates]

/ac "[SpellYouWantToUse]" /p It's morbin time Though, don't need to have /p as it works with whatever chat you got active. remove the brackets though and replace with the ability you want, keep the quotes Example /ac "Superbolide" /p GLORY TO GARLEMALD!

Good ones for tanks are the callout when they invuln, and healers when they are rezzing. Usually do it in Party chat with the chime or danger bongos

Simple macros that announce actions to the group are very helpful. Actions like superbolide, living death or healer raises help let the group know what's going on with the other players and how to respond in kind.

I had a friend of mine do this exactly so that she can teleport to me; she struggles with movement and mechanics a lot (not just when she plays BLM), and I'm usually her guide.
