    Suggestion: Increase number of lines per macro

    Excluding undergarments, there are currently 15 armor slots (plus ~2 practical weapon slots) that can be equipped per character. However, macros are limited to only 10 lines, forcing players to create multiple macros to change gear when switching classes.

    Please increase the number of lines per macro, ideally to somewhere in the 20 range. Originally, I was going to suggest simply saving gear configuration, but with the frequency of gear repair, that could prove problematic. Longer macros would seem to be a superior solution.

    I would prefer saving gear configuration, and spell configuration while we're at it. The line-by-line delay on macros and the inability to stop a macro once it's started makes me want to avoid macros for this type of purpose whenever possible.

    If gear switching is very commonplace because of repair issues and the consensus is that more macro space really is the superior answer, then fiiiiiiine, but I'd still like the spell configuration to be saved by class.

    1. Increase macro lines to 20.

    2. When not engaged in combat, execute /equip gear and /equip action macro lines simultaneously

    3. Save gear configuration, skill configuration, and stat configuration on a job-by-job basis. Also allow up to 3 different "builds" to be saved per job.

    You can stop a macro mid-way but pressing the macro button again. I use it all the time when I want to re-equip certain traits that have fallen off due to switching to a low ranked class but don't want to go through my entire trait equip macro.
