    I can only think of 1 instance (T8 dreads) where I am casting cures so fast that the millisecond delay from not queuing is going to make a difference. And even then I normally pop PoM and the cast time makes it so I'm not spamming them that quick.

    I'll agree the lqck of queuing can be an issue for a DPS class but not so much for a healer.

    I don't think it makes a difference in healing performance, but it was driving me crazy. I did heal all content outside of T9 and Ramuh ex with mouseovers and they worked just fine. I just feel healing to be smoother for me without macros.

    fair enough. I am aware of the possible delay but honestly don't notice it when I'm playing.

    I use many macros for multiple reasons, but here is some of them:

    1 - Aero2 -> aero ... tem healing down time depends on your stats, at least 4s.
    2 - StoneSkin -> regen ... works fine, except when you want to pre-buff your tanker before a fight em here is targeting already( sequence <tt> <t> <me> );
    3 - Classic SC and raise;
    4 - SC -> Presence of mind ... when I need an instant heal e/or faster casts sequence;
    5 - Shroud of Saints -> divine seal ... usability
    6 - Divine Seal -> Cure 3 ... my main Cure 3 button

    I have my Cure 2 button with <tt> and another default. Still figuring out how to fit Benediction in one of mine macros.

    I'm on ps3 and I never needed them. They are nice to have tho. They can clear up some room in your hotbars.
