    Ninja Macro help

    Is there a way to macro Suiton use so that it announces in /p: "Suiton used, 10% dmg bonus on the boss"
    I don't want to macro mudras, I want control of that but I don't know if it's possible to do the above without adding another keybind.

    Suiton isn't the damage up. Trick attack is. So if you want a /p line macro it to trick attack

    /ac "Trick Attack"
    /wait 1
    /p Trick Attack used—10% dmg bonus on the boss! <se.1>

    I use the /wait 1 in macros like this so it doesn't spam the chat from me pressing the button multiple times but that's my preference.

    Ah, does mean it limits it? I didn't know that!

    It does not really limit it. What happens is: if you press a macro, while another macro is active, to other one will get canceled. Meaning, if there's a small wait, you will always cancel the macro before the party message pops.

    Another thing you can do to improve the macro is to repeat the Trick Attack command as many times as possible. Macros do not queue like regular skills, so you usually have to mash them for them to go off, but the game puts a tiny delay between each line, so if you repeat an action a bunch it will keep trying to execute it for a quarter of a second or so, which acts almost like the skill queue.

    Code:
    /merror off
    /ac "Trick Attack"
    /ac "Trick Attack"
    /ac "Trick Attack"
    [repeat as many times as will fit]
    /ac "Trick Attack"
    /ac "Trick Attack" <wait.1>
    /p Trick Attack used—10% dmg bonus on the boss! <se.1>
    /micon "Trick Attack"
