    Never rely on anyone. Expect a level of competence that they can handle their portion of the fight but don't rely on anyone else to keep your ass out of a bad situation. Know the fight and plan accordingly so that you're never caught with your pants down. Then you're pleasantly surprised when you're having them go out of their way to makes things easier instead of being surprised because you couldn't get that IB off for the Tank Buster and are instead tanking the floor like a DRG.

    True, but i'm one of those people that likes to think the best of others. If i can take the time to do things properly i'd like to think others can too xD

    It's fine to rely on your team, but the problem here is that you're taking unnecessary risk (see my previous post) and expect your healer to cancel out that risk you could've avoided in the first place.

    Not to mention, if it's something that would one shot you without IB, but you can survive with IB, it's probably a good idea to stack other cds as well (thrill, venge, raw intuition etc), since that means even with IB you will be left with less than 20% of your hp.

    I see little need for a macro if the debuff shows up for everyone to see on the party list. Plus you still have access to your abilities. And 5 seconds of lockdown means you regenerate a good amount of TP or you can pop Equilibrium during that time. Though some might appreciate the warning.

    Macros cant be queued, so if you're in the middle of an animation and decide to use your Berserk macro, it may not work.

    I'd try adding more lines of berserk to your macro to see if it works. Also delay the message with a wait command (that way you're safe to mash your macro until it activates.

    Someting like

    /ac berserk
    /ac berserk
    /ac berserk
    /ac berserk
    /wait 3
    /p Here comes berserk! Pacify in 15 seconds! ( or however long it lasts, I forget)

    I second main WAR, and I like to keep things moving. I have a Marco for berserk (may or may not contain puns....) just in case the healer might not be paying attention or I'm in a boss battle, etc.

    I think it depends on the type of player you are too.
