    I do callouts for my FC, and one of the players needs me to shout ARM'S LENGTH whenever I call it's time to pop knickknacks immunity.
    I wonder if software like this wouldn't hear me shout the callout over Discord and have all of their systems automatically hit Arm's Length for them...

    That would be very neat. From a former raid leader point of view. That could be kinda fun, yell out and the program hears you and everyone does a defensive. I know many raid fights when I call out for cds and people don't use them. Lol

    Though, then you'd have the problem of those players who don't have the app wanting the command shouted with enough warning to hit it normally (or, worse, at the end of the cast they just started). With only a 6s duration, you'd have to be awfully precise, so optimizing it on back-to-back immunities in the few fights that have such wouldn't then be possible. /shrug

    ...Regardless, I'm pretty sure someone else causing actions for your character would have more than breeched the grey area for the ToS, as one player can thus affect multiple clients.

    I imagine it would also probably cause them to hit buttons when they're not ready to. I can see it causing clipping and screwing with rotations and mucking up how skills queue.
    Like, there are plenty of reasons why my idea shouldn't be done... but I still wonder if it could, ya know?
