Why you should have at least one macro with a /p line.

if i knew how to make macros that state my HP/MP/TP i might be more inclined to use them, i do use a macro for songs on my bard though.

<hp><mp><tp>
<hpp><mpp><tpp> if you want to show percentage.

You are welcome ^^

Not going to lie, those two macro's seem pretty pointless to me.

Either way some macro's are semi-useful, like letting your partner healer know who you're resing. They don't always help though. I've lost track of how many times a newbie PUG healer has stood there hard casting a res after I already swift casted a res on the same person 10 seconds ago.

Ehh, even I find berserk macros a bit unnecessary, eventually. I pull multi groups of mobs when I go to dungeons and usually between berserk start and berserk end, I consume boatloads of TP for insane AOE enmity generation. Pacification from berserk lets me gain back some tp and I can still generate enmity through flash. It also lets me balance TP and MP loss all the way to the boss, allowing me to never stop between pulls. Pacification doesn't disable my stun so it isn't a huge deal on single target bosses either.

I do announce my songs though, just to show people that I'm a 'bard that plays songs' and maybe get extra commends from people who appreciate it, even if I'm way past the 500 mark. :^)

I have a nice little Berserk macro to let the healers know I'm shortly going to be Pacified. Doesn't always encourage them to clear it off me though...lol.

Anyone who uses one of those is just ensuring that I won't bother to clear it off them.

Yes forgot this one. I have made a particulary one with coil 2 for silence rotation.
I put a sign1 on mob then when i silence with macro (sign2) the sign1 become sign2 on the mob so the silence n°2 know when it's his turn by looking at the boss and his macro was the same as me but with sign1 to turn in 1 again to set my turn. It was working very well, especially when we had to clear the vocal for tank alert.
A good thing is that we could do also with sign3, but we didn't bother much, it was better to set someone on random silence.

A good WAR doesn't use Flash often

Wroooooooooong. I switch up between overpower and flash spam when I go from pulling one group to another so one can restore whilst I use the other.

[Curia_Regis]

Considering people can report you for spamming chat I don't really think it's a good idea to use macros with text around any sort of pug group.
