buff maccro are bad.you want to use buff between 2 skill not back to back and puting 2-3 buff in the same maccro mean you cant use them separatly wich is really bad.you dont always need to burn all your def buff at the same time.i never say this to much,stay away from maccro....

Have you used macros? They don't use all the buffs in order from one click, they use them one at a time, in the priority of top to bottom. To do what you said would involve /wait. In example, you can use a multi-buff macro after an attack, and it will use one, and only one buff.

Macros are fine, they're convenient and save comfortable and accessible keybinds. It's only when they don't do exactly what you would have done, in the timeline you wanted, that they're not optimal. Besides, just because you put an action into a macro, doesn't mean you can't just click it separately if you need it.

Actually the other guy is right. As you said, "they use them one at a time, in the priority of top to bottom". In your first macro example if you want to use only internal release and not blood for blood you would not be able to because you have blood for blood listed in the macro first.

Zakard was not right, see the quote in my post, not the current post he has.

Regardless, what's to stop you from pressing Internal Release instead if you want Internal Release? How does that make macros something to stay away from?

Either both your macro and Internal Release are in easy-to-reach locations (in which case why macro at all?), or Internal Release is in a hard to reach location (negating the entire point you have about saving space). Regardless, if you only want to hit IR in this example, you're going to have to fight the muscle memory of hitting the macro, so why not just have it separate entirely?
