Ninjutsu for marco?

[OwlBlackX]

I love play ninja. But, I don't like Ninjutsu, they are many icons on hotbars
I don't have good brain.

Ago person helpped me make marco. But, she don't main ninja.

Like I tried make

/micon doton
/action ten
/wait 0.5
/action jin
/wait 0.5
/action chi
/wait 0.5
/action ninjutsu

But, it's not 100% works. Happened me sometimes. I clicked Doto as I wanted aoe. But, maroc made it turn Raiton as wrong skill.
I feel 0.5. sec is too slow? Need make 0.2 or 0.3?

If you main ninja. Know better make marcos? Thanks.

Never macro Ninja. EVER. You can't macro half seconds, it rounds up to a full second. All you are doing is making Ninjutsu take way longer to cast than it should. Mudra/Ninjutsu should be cast within the global cooldown (~2.5 seconds) between your other abilities. Your macro is making the whole thing take about 4 seconds to cast a single Ninjutsu.

As for the reason it is casting Raiton instead, that's likely because the wait time is actually 1 rather than 0.5 and with the way it is set up, any delay due to ping may be skipping Jin altogether, casting Ten > Chi.

You really have to play Ninja properly for it to work. Macros won't fix it.

I see...It's turn. Same other friend don't use marco. But, said put more icons on bathot as I did too

This

Yes I feel it's much. But, sure it's normal?
It's for Doto, Katon, Huton, Suiton , Raiton, and Hyoton. I knew later I hit 76lvl ninja and new one skill more icons...

Why do you need multiple instances of tin, chi, and jin? Just memorize the order of the ninjitsus.

[OwlBlackX]

My memorize is weak. Why I can't remember and easy messed up myself

Make many icons make easy

If it helps, it's only the ending jitsu that matters.
Ten-chi-jin and chi-ten-jin will both produce the same thing.

If you keep at it, you'll have it down in no time.

It's not really normal, no. As the other person who responded said, you really just need to remember what the Mudra combo ends with. That's what matters when casting a Ninjutsu. You shouldn't need your whole screen filled with hotbars just to have each combination visible separately.

You should learn your jutsus' mudra orders. But in the interests of accessibility, here are examples of macros that don't delay the GCD.

/micon "Fuma Shuriken"
/hotbar action Ten 2 5
/hotbar action Ninjutsu 2 6
/hotbar remove 2 7
/hotbar remove 2 8

/micon Doton
/hotbar action Ten 2 5
/hotbar action Jin 2 6
/hotbar action Chi 2 7
/hotbar action Ninjutsu 2 8

These macros won't use the ninjutsu, but will prepare your bars for you to enter them manually. Activating the macro will replace bar 2 buttons 5-8 with the mudras for a jutsu. The macro can be activated at any time, even while animation locked or performing another action. If you activate it while Ninjutsu is cooling down, the buttons will be ready for your next jutsu when it becomes usable again.

Change the bar and slot numbers as necessary. First number is the bar, second number is the slot.

Honestly, consider a new class. I'd recommend Sam if you like melee.

I really liked the aesthetic of Ninja myself, the assassin type. But the gameplay is very different from what you expect from the assassin dps.

Nin doesn't get easier, it's one of the hardest dps to play. It has one of the lowest personal dps and you have to work hard even for that. In exchange you get a utility called Trick Attack that your party will expect you to land regularly, from the right position without forgetting it or missing. It's an easy job to mess up, you can clip, mess up mudra's, mess up Ten-Chi-Jin.

If you're the sort of player who finds a lot of buttons complex and likes to find shortcuts (which is fine), Nin isn't the class.

Unfortunately, I would have to agree. If you can't get the basic Mudra combinations under control, then the job won't be worthwhile. It only gets more difficult to play as you level and there is no "fix" to make it easier.
