Prepare your Ninja Macro

[EdwinLi]

So you prepare to make your Ninja Macro due to the Ninja Symbol system for their Job skills.


Short version:

Given Symbol 1, 2, 3, 4 and so on..

Perform in right order to successful use skill

Wrong Order = Epic Fail.

So easiest way to get the right order to use your Ninja skill is to put those symbols into a Macro.

(PS this is why I'm just giving the Ninja Job the Title... "The Macro Job")

They have to have a set amount of combinations that work, so this could totally be an issue. The only ways I see around it are either making them not able to be macro'd, or make it so if there's say 4 Mudra (or what ever they were called, I can't remember) but have say, 8+ working combinations. That way its actually more efficient in hotbar spaces to not have them macro'd

Hmm interesting. Tough I would prefer if it would be un-macroable I can surely see SE with their attitude:

"We want everybody to be able to enjoy the Ninja! That's why it won't be too hard to cast mudra's. And we will allow macro's too."

With how often macros fail to trigger everything in the list, I feel like this is a very bad idea. Also, if the hand signs are tied into the GCD, macroing is a horrible idea.

is what you're going to see...a lot.

Believe it.

Seeing as there's CD between skills, you'd have cast time of 4sec+ to make a combo of 4 mudras. So my guess, there's just 3-mudra-combos, so it's like standard combos.
They would need to be quite strong, or it wouldn't be any point in using them, or your DPS would drop a lot.
But might be something along the line of BRD loosing dps, with ballad/paeon.
We'll see...most NIN will be really bad though; more so than most DRG, currently
