Useful Healing Macros

[Layla-chan]

I love macros that take advantage of cooldowns. For example, here is my Raise macro:

/macroicon "Swiftcast"
/ac "Swiftcast" <me>
/ac "Presence of Mind" <me>
/ac "Raise" <t>
/wait .8
/ac "Raise" <t>

Here is how it works: If Swiftcast is available, the macro will activate this and then Raise; it will not activate Presence of Mind and the first Raise because Swiftcast is still in its casting phase. If Swiftcast is still in cool down, then the macro will then activate Presence of Mind before casting Raise. Finally, if both Swiftcast and Presence of Mind are in cooldown, then Raise itself will be cast.

Cooldowns also make macros that use button mashing possible:

/micon "Divine Seal"
/ac "Divine Seal" <me>
/ac "Presence of Mind" <me>

This macro requires you to press the button *at least* two times. First press activates "Divine Seal" then the second press activates "Presence of Mind" since "Divine Seal" is still in cooldown.
