ability equip macro for Pierce

Anyone else have issues equiping Pierce with a macro. my current equip macro is the same as all other abilities and this is the only one that doesnt seem to work. I have tried:
/equipaction 1 "Pierce"
/equipaction 1 "Pierce" main

neither seem to work. Any help would be appreciated

Me too, I have tried
/eaction 2 "Pierce"
It just ignores it and leaves an empty slot, bug perhaps?

Simple, you can't. There are 2 Pierce, 1 for Lancer 1 for Fencer, they decided to remove the macro-ability because previous if you do macro you will get the Fencer version instead.

well that just sucks.

This was already reported by myself and a few others . in the Bug report section so dont worry much about this . they eventually fix this , luckyli this i only 1 skill so just open the menu and "manually" change it.

Hold on a sec, what is the Fencer?

Go play the other FF and find out... hehe
joke aside its supose to be a new class/job and they are supose to be implemented in the future. and they are supose to be using Fencing weapons and Pierce its in conflict with the skill from Lancer and Fencer... (mybe they are being integrated as we speak , hence the MACRO "error")

Please fix this, it can't be too hard! change the name to Piercing Thrust or something. It's a pain to not be able to macro an ability in. ><

stop complaining this was alredy posted on the BUGS section and eventually it will be fix , in the meantime just do it manually sigh lazy people

Is Pierce any good? It honestly does not seem any different than Skewer/Skewer II...

I'm sitting on 17K lancer marks and have yet to buy any abilities.

Ironically, it never got fixed in the BUGS section. One post over in the Localization forums, though, and it's, "We'll have that done next patch!"

As of 1.18, Pierce does comparable damage to autoattack and can hit multiple targets. What sets it apart from your WSs is that it generates TP instead of expending it.

Didn't read enough to see if anyone mentioned this. But it has been responded to elsewhere and I think the comment was that it will be fixed in 1.19 so that the macro command works to equip Pierce.

^^^ This

poping off pierce, full thrust, and heavy thrust with Invigorate II is a good way to quickly get 3K TP instead of waiting on slow ass auto attack
