Finally SCH can set pet actions to hotbars

It's mostly a layout design choice some SCH/SUM's make to save room and make their screen look neat and tidy. Because of that choice, some players try to avoid the pet hotbar since not only is it unalterable half the skills aren't even needed so it takes up needless space on the screen. Instead we dragged the skills onto our hotbar, however this too creates a space problem considering the number of pet skills available. So what most did in this situation was take two unused hotbars and copy their primary hotbar that will have the fairy skills to them both. They would then make one bar have Eos's skills and the other have Selene's and then we would make a Summon macro that used "/hotbar copy" to paste the appropriate fairy bar to their primary one when they summoned a fairy. However with this new command you no longer need those two hotbars as you can simply add "/hotbar pet" commands to your summon macro to swap-in the appropriate fairy skills.

are you able to put macros on the hotbar with that command? I meant to check last night when I was in the game but didn't have time.

When we open up our Pet actions, there should just be placeholders. "Pet ability 1", "Pet ability 2", etc. And when you use them in a macro, it uses Pet Ability 2 of what ever pet is currently out, and same deal when you place it on your hotbar, so that it auto-changes based on your current pet out.

That would be a lovely feature and funny thing is you can technically do it now with a little macro trickery. Since the first, second and third summon abilities are tied together CD-wise you can actually make one "pet ability" macro like such:

/macroicon "Whispering Dawn" pet
/pac "Silent Dusk" <t>
/pac "Whispering Dawn" <me>

If you have Selene out and cast Silent Dusk the Whispering Dawn icon, while greyed out, will still show it going on CD for 40secs. It's a nifty trick to save hotbar space however I'm too neurotic when it comes to layout design and the greyed out boxes bugged me out for the short time I used'em with my Summoner lol.

Sadly no, would be beast if you could.

Even with the explanation it still sounds an overglorified waste of programming text

Still, to each on his own. some will have use for it, others will not
