    Neither is the case. I don't have either SC or any rezz macroed, yet I'll get the rezz off faster than a SC+rezz macro with a 1 sec wait between skills will allow. The window between my SC and rezz is lightning fast because the skills are not macroed together so I can actually queue either SC, rezz, or both. That is why I beat nearly all macro using PUG healers to the punch. You will literally miss my rezz if you blink. Another healer would have to use their SC almost simultaneously to get their SC inside this window.



    You do realize that you probably just accurately described a substantial portion of people in DF, yes? I mean, how many times do you still see people to this day not stand behind rocks on Behemoth?
    All the time. Same with those who place the rocks inside his hit box, resulting in no place on the field to shield meteor. But I'm not sure how that applies to rezz macros and tying SC to them. This mechanic just reinforces that players need to be paying attention to the field, not their chat boxes.

    That.

    For example, back in ARR while doing Titan EX, you could resurrect a player mid-air if they got killed by Landslide, would've been a lot more difficult with a macro.

    I also like to get back to healing/DPSing without clipping into GCDs too much, not to mention that I like to keep Swiftcast available for other things.
