    Don't macro combat abilities. They won't queue anymore, which will slow you down considerably.

    No good DPS is going to advocate using macros. The rotation for BLM is pretty straightforward and there isn't an excessive amount of button bloat (I can easily fit everything on cross hotbar on a controller). What is causing you to feel as though you need macros?

    Probably thinking they can automate some rotations for simplicity's sake. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on who you ask), macros are objectively inferior to outright using the abilities in a lot of cases. Aetherial Manipulation macro is solid if you're pugging and don't want to fly over to Player X thinking they won't be standing in orange stuff.
