    I can just +1 what dragonseth said about using macros in general "be careful they might cost you time and aren't 100% save to use".

    I can list some macros I started back in the days as young smn even though i don't use them anymore -
    but to make things easier at the beginning especially the pet-management you can try some of those (Garuda-Egi examples):

    AoE pet combo:
    /macroicon "Painflare" (or Bane)
    /ac "Painflare" (or /ac Bane)
    /wait
    /pac "Aerial Slash"

    this macro simply combines your aoe-skills with Rudas aoe skill either
    Painflare or after setting Dots and spreading them on a mob via Bane


    DoT Extend (mostly in DW stance)
    /macroicon "Tri-disaster"
    /ac "Tri-disaster"
    /wait
    /ac "Contagion"

    Not much to say using tri to set all DoTs at once and directly extend
    them with Rudas buff


    By my side
    /macroicon "Aetherflow"
    /ac "Aetherflow"
    /pac "Heel"

    This one becomes handy if you have to move quite a lot in a boss fight or
    savage to avoid mechanics or aoe-dmg, forcing your egi to follow you time
    by time in your rota


    Buffed Enkindle
    /macroicon "Enkindle"
    /ac "Spur" (or /ac "Rouse"
    /wait
    /ac "Enkindle"

    Not much to say here as well make your strongest egi-atk even stronger.
    you can combine both buffs in one macro as well to get the maximum dmg
    of Enkindle but you loose the pet-buff flexibility... dunno if its worth it.


    Switch target
    /macroicon "Bio"
    /pac "Windblade"
    /wait
    /ac "Bio"

    This one is one of the less im still using from time to time - Bio is instant and
    is the DoT you have to refresh the most, perfect to switch Rudas target instantly
    (f.e. in hugh mobs where a special one got prio to get burst down)


    Its getting dark
    /macroicon "Shadow Flare"
    /ac "Swiftcast"
    /wait
    /ac "Shadow Flare" <t>
    /ac "Shadow Flare"

    Flexibel instant Shadowflare first line provides a direct target if selected,
    second line provides setting it manually if u haven't selected a target.


    Unleash the Dragon
    /macroicon "Dreadwyrm Trance"
    /ac "Raging Strikes" (archer x-skill)
    /wait
    /ac "Dreadwyrm Trance"

    most likely for your opener cause of the long cd of RS – gives you a 20% dmg buff
    for every action you ll do in the upcoming 15 secs of DW (DoTs, Fester, Painflare, Ruin lll and Deathflare)



    Like I said they are not optimal in terms of flexibility but you don't have to care about micro managing
    your pet or selfbuffs that much - in the end how further you progress in endgame content goes the less
    macros should be used at all ^^



    so long
