At least Continuation changes to the appropriate attack name when you are using Gnashing Fang Combo, which is surprisingly macro friendly... I might name the macro "Mashing Fang" since that is basically how macro friendly it is... although I think Koji Fox knew someone would make a Gnashing Fang Macro with that name...

First you complain about drk being slow and clunky, and now you are using super clunky macros on gnb which are also slowing him down.
Hmmmmm
Idk if you could even double weave with these macros without clipping, since its slowing your input a lot due tothe queue nature of the game..

As someone who used to use Salted Earth Marco, I noticed no issues with Gnashing Fang Macro, since all you need to do is mash the macro button, whereas Salted Earth and similar macros don't even place the the thing to activate the effect.

If you put everything into one button the clipping is super terrible, and it sometimes does not use continuation if you press this button too often.

Even if you put on all 3 buttons a macro with continuation its still a problem.

Dont macro these skills with continuation, and dont macro them all together it will hurt your flow and you will hurt your rotation with it. Usage of macros comes with some heavy input lag or whatever it is causing it.

Have you tried it yourself on GNB? Because I'm getting the feeling that you haven't tried it yourself, but I also get this feeling that you just hate macros in general...

Either way, Gnashing Fang Macro I haven't noticed too many issues and unless someone at Square-Enix tells me to stop using that macro, then I will stop using that macro, but as far as I'm concerned, Macros are within Terms of Service as macros are a part of the game, and therefore I will keep using it, unless there is proof that the macros are causing HUGE lag spikes which as far as I can tell with FF14 spaghetti code everything cause lag spikes...

Yes i tried it just right now, its terrible.
You should never do macro on this skills, clipping is everywhere anytime you want to squish in one extra oGCD into rotation.
Its super bad when you make it one button, with 3 separate buttons you have no space to breathe in double weaving if you fail you clip, its harder than doing it without macro.

You gotta mash it like you were doing the active time maneuver in Shinryu fight.

also macro needs to be as follows;

/micon "Gnashing Fang"
/action "Continuation"
/action "Gnashing Fang"
/action "Savage Claw"
/action "Wicked Talon"

I'd never use a macro especially for Continuation you're gonna delay and clip losing in lots of DPS not to mention if you mess one up GNB gets punished heavily if you mess up your burst windows vs any other tank, as Shao said Salted Earth is the only one that doesn't hurt because it's ground targeted since it's faster due to the animation skip.

Not to mention in your opener you use 1 Gnashing Fang + 1 continuation then you use your DoTs/OGCDs so it messes it up even more.
