Healing Macro

Macro Syntax:
Intended Benefit:
Discard (AST)
/statusoff “Spear Drawn”
/statusoff “Spire Drawn”
/statusoff “Bole Drawn”
/statusoff “Balance Drawn”
/statusoff “Ewer Drawn”
/statusoff “Arrow Drawn”
Put “Draw” on cooldown faster by removing the 15s buff created by its use triggering the timer to start counting down.  Used when “Shuffle” is on cooldown and the drawn card is not wanted for use, for “Royal Road”, or for “Spread”.


Draw (AST)
/action Draw <mo>
/action Draw <t>
/action Draw <me>
/macroicon Draw
Add “mouseover” functionality to Draw.   Removing “/ac Draw <me>” will get rid of the default self casting, but will also require a target in order to “draw” the card to begin with.

Summon Selene (SCH)
/action “Summon II”
/hotbar pet Embrace Selene 2 3
/hotbar pet “Silent Dusk” Selene 2 4
/hotbar pet “Fey Caress” Selene 2 6
/hotbar pet “Fey Wind” Selene 2 7
/macroicon “Summon II”
Leave off the Embrace line if using a separate Embrace macro.  By using the same (c)hotbar positions for Selene and Eos you can increase available space. The numbers to the right of the pet name are (c)hotbar number and position on that bar respectively.

Summon Eos (SCH)
/action Summon
/hotbar pet Embrace Eos 2 3
/hotbar pet “Whispering Dawn” Eos 2 4
/hotbar pet “Fey Covenant” Eos 2 6
/hotbar pet “Fey Illumination” Eos 2 7
/macroicon Summon
Leave off the Embrace line if using a separate Embrace macro.  By using the same (c)hotbar positions for Selene and Eos you can increase available space. The numbers to the right of the pet name are (c)hotbar number and position on that bar respectively.

Embrace (SCH)
/action Embrace <mo>
/action Embrace <t>
/action Embrace <tt>
Manually control the main fairy heal.  <mo> allows you to heal two separate targets simultaneously, <t> allows you to pump maximum heals into one target, and <tt> allows you to dps while still healing the tank.

Place Pet (SCH)
/pac Heel
/pac Place
/pac Obey
Intended to make manually placing your fairy less cumbersome.  Heel interrupts your fairy’s cast while Place gives you the ground targeter for moving your fairy.

Gear Set (Job Switch Macro)
/gearset change 1
/autofacetarget off
/macroicon 1 Gearset


Used to make sure that when on a healing job your character is not constantly changing facing direction based on who they last healed.  See Auto Face Target note below for more info.




Special Notes:

Place the /macroicon command at the bottom of the macro to prevent delays in execution.  Placing it above other commands will cause a delay of 16.7 ms in 60fps or 33.3ms in 30fps.

Do not macro embrace as part of your heals.  Doing so decreases your healing efficiency because of the spell queuing as noted above, as well as, your fairy’s heal having a different cooldown than your heals.  It is far better to let the fairy heal on its own until you need to direct it manually with the separate macro listed above.  Healing the proper target(s) trumps raw throughput.

“/actionerror off” and “/macroerror off” can be used to suppress error messages on a per macro basis rather than turning all errors off in Character Configuration > Log Window Settings > "Display Error messages when actions fail"

**Auto Face Target** - There are not a ton of mechanics in the game contingent upon character facing, but they do exist.  Introduced as a major mechanic in Turn 7 with a petrifying gaze attack, it became very detrimental to have this setting turned on as a healer since you would have unpredictable facing based on who you had last healed and their positioning.  I would recommend having a job switching macro like the one above to handle this and simply either manually maintain your facing for offensive spells or take the small hit to efficiency on your offense to add the /ft to just your offensive spell macros.
