Sure, some macros are nice to have (like replacing skills on my WAR depending on his current stance). But please dont even try to bring new players to heavily use macros instead of learning to play the class right. Macros like this arent helpfull in any situation. But speaking of that, I want to know, when does your macro become helpfull. In which situation exactly?
First, never once did I ever say or reference to New players watching my video that this is the only way to play Monk, so lets get that clear now. Second, there are plenty of occasions! Fate Farms, Soloing older content, Chocobo Leveling, Low Level Dungeons that are so easy(I.E. Sastasha), Palace of the Dead....do I really have to name off every piece of content in game that is not Endgame?

Lastly, to your reference of the links I sent...the link you posted is also out of date which most updates are from patch 3.2 with the other pages talking about scattered data. Second, playing any job in FF14 can not be taught, watched or seen to truly be good at it as in any MMO or life in general. But it does give others a start to learn from and form their own methods of playing. So the data maybe old as you claim, but it still has alot of validity to it as there is not 100% guide to any class or Job in any MMO ever made!
