    So at level 60 using your macros results in 13% of DPS loss which is a massive decrease in DPS. Let's just end the discussion there.

    As far as I know, no one in this thread has posted any confirmation that using the 2 line macro would only be a 2% DPS loss when used by a level 60 competent MNK. The difference between macros and direct abilities only grows the higher level, item level and skill level the player comparing them is.

    If you feel that using the macros does not work for you, then do not use them. I do not use them when I do endgame content, but as I stated the test he did was with a modified version of a 5-6 line item macro in which was a loss of 13%. The test was not the 2 line item macro that I did which showed data with only a loss of 2%.
