    I think this topic was about macro text though.

    I don't use macro for swiftcast, because I've noticed it does provoke clipping / uptime loss, because it will never queue skills between GCD as efficiently as a player will. But the loss is rather small, let's all agree on that, and especially for a raise, because it happens once in a while or it does not happen when you are focusing on a fight.

    My macro is just:
    /ac "Raise" <t>
    /p whatever text saying i'm raising <t>

    I use an instant GCD spell (Regen/Aero II/ Combust... you get it), weave swiftcast, then my raise macro. Never got macro related problems this way...
    The macro's point is just indicating that I'm raising (and my target in case of double death). Sometimes you'll have to hardcast the raise anyway.

    If you use this macro in junction with healer LB3 and get 6-7 back up, you immediately get my comm ;p

    However, you also have to die.

    The norm is Healer Dying after LB3.

    Seen in YT footage of the game:

    "I'm not your farther but I'll raise you anyway."

    Thanks for helping make the FFXIV community a fun and welcoming place. If you're not sure you have (and you very likely have), make it a point to be patient or helpful the next time you log in so that you can know you've made a difference.

    If you're on the Aether data center, congratulations! I might be your next exciting adventure healer in the Duty Finder. Please look forward to it.

    I used to have a raise macro back in AAR. I quickly removed it after realizing double clicking it caused it to not go off. Also back then a macro couldn't show if the target wasn't in range. I use swiftcast for things other than raise so I really don't want to tie down that hotbar spot with a macro. There's also the issue of non macro raises going off between the the swiftcast an the raise action of the macro.

    I also used to have a macro for targeting the ground with salted earth/shadow flare, but after switching PCs I never replaced it because it wouldn't work on targets with no ground underneath. They're nice but I don't see a reason to have two slots for the same ability. Currently the only macros I have are on bard with "target's target" for the two support abilities I use on tanks anyway.

    If people want to use raise macros, that's fine with me. I've just been seeing the generic "raise target" macros lately.
