Skills still saved clientside - not server side

Update:

I guess this is wrong. In the time I wrote my short original post it had to download the position of the skills. It's just a slow process. Skills are saved serverside now, hurray. Now if only macros were.

It's interesting to note, though, how slow it is. I switched classes multiple times between archer, conjurer, alchemist, carpenter, thaumaturge, and botanist - and wrote the macros for each one, and tested the macros at least twice.

I didn't write this post until after I had completed all of that and switched to archer for maybe a third time.

After testing my other classes, it switched over faster, so maybe it just does it in one big chunk.

Well, I guess that is good news. The servers aren't that impressive. :P

They'll probably add an option like they did in XI.

Better to have macros serverside in case people don't get the opportunity to back-up from a catastrophic crash. They take so long to make, especially if you're not familiar with how the macros work or the gear you're using, plus if you have caster classes you have to have multiple skill macros to switch between healing/dps/elemental style roles.

I have to make what, 10 macros for my conjurer?
