WHM Macros: Tips&Suggestion please

I main as a BLM, but I enjoy playing with my WHM (especially if I have to use the DR Low, HELLO fast-queue :p )

I was thinking about using some macros, mostly to save space in my hotbar (I play from PS4)

aside from the obvious SC->Raise, and maybe E4E->Virus....
Would it be useful to put Aero& AeroII in a macro?
or they share the same recast time? :/

using a macro to switch hotbar when I activate Cleric Stance, I think it's just a waste of an hotbar. the little amount of attack spells, i can sipmly put them in a cross hotbar...

what other macros can be used, considering Mouseover is pretty useless from PS4?

I acutally dont use any macro for whitemage at this time. I am also playing on ps4. I use a main hotbar and another wich i can access through holding R2+L2. That means 32 slots and thats more than enough.

Hm, i think Aero+Aero2 isnt such a good idea, because you have like 5-6 seconds then where you cant heal. Well, i havent tried it out, but thats just my opinion.

The only macro you should be using is <Swiftcast><Raise>.
Seriously, WHM is the best PS4 healer because you need so few slots. :)

I struggle on SCH getting 32 skills on 2 hotbars...

Just learnt about L2&R2 secret hotbar, but I only see 8 slots on mine.

Page 1 = healing
R1 toggle between
Page 2 = utility and damage spells

3 pages and that cycle is confusing as heck.

well, Aero is Istant, and Aero II not, but I think you have enought time to use it while the tank pulls mobs, I mean, it's just kind of a situational macro, If I think stoneskin will last like 0 seconds on the tank (then you must be pretty bad >_>) I just hit the macro once, and I'll just cas Aero, instead of both...

you can have 2 crossbar, one pressing L2+R2, another pressing R2+L2, total 16 slots

I made the habit of doing all of my DPS abilities as <tt> and repeat the line as <t> so you can use them solo or keep the tank targeted and dps in between heals.

EX
/ac "Stone" <tt>
/ac "Stone" <t>

Aside from that, theres really no other macros I use. I don't macro SC onto Raise because it's easy enough to hit them both...personal preference there.

basically, I just have to keep the target on the tank, and the <tt> makes me use Stone, or whatever on the mob the tank it's attacking?

I love my stoneskin macro.

/ac "stoneskin" <1>
/wait 3
/ac "stoneskin" <2>
/wait 3
....
so on and so forth to 8

macroing Stoneskin it's for lazy people u_u

I have an "Uh-Oh Button" macro for tough situations:
/ac "Divine Seal" <me>
/wait 1
/ac "Swiftcast" <me>
/wait 1
/ac "Medica II" <me>
