Macros are a function that allow you to perform several actions with the click of one button (or keybind) and can make the most complex setup of targeting and skills simple. A macro can be placed on the skillbar just like any other skill, or used from the Macro Window. There are a total of 12 macro spaces.

  • Dragging a skill, function, emotion, Quickbar or item icons onto the Enter Macro Command box of the Edit Macro Window enters the command automatically
  • You cannot enter another macro within a macro.
  • Some commands may require sufficient cooldown time between the execution of commands. Enter a delay.
  • Macros are stopped when there is not enough MP or HP to execute a skill, or when there is no target.
  • Use the Example tab to see how to use commands.
  • It is possible to Cut & Paste from an external program such as Notepad.
  • Macros built on one character will NOT carry over to a new or different character.
