Need some advice on Macro's

[hickman84]

Apologies if anyone feel's this should belong in the 'Support' Forum but I find I get quicker replies here, okay onto the problem; I have set up Macro's for each of the classes I'm playing as and also separate macro's for 'Combat' equipment and 'Crafting' equipment, the code is as it is supposed to be and they do work but the problem I'm having is for example I press the macro to change to my Archer class, it equip's my bow no problem but the second command I have to equip my arrows in the pack slot doesn't work first time, I have to press the macro again for my arrows to equip. It's the same with the others as well I have to press the macro a number of times to get everything equipped. Does anyone have any idea's on what could be wrong? Thank you!

/wait 3

The rules that say what you can equip take a second or two to adjust to a class or job change it seems. This is why all the job macros look like this:
/equip mh [weapon]
/wait 2
/job on
/wait 3
[start equipping gear]

Without the /wait 2, FFXIV may not yet acknowledge that you're, for example, a GLA, so you can use /job on to become PLD. Similarly, without the /wait 3, FFXIV doesn't always realize yet that you're a PLD and can equip the Gallant equipment, so the lines equipping armor afterwards will fail.

My guess is that FFXIV doesn't realize you're an ARC yet, so it won't let you equip arrows. /wait 2 should fix it.

Thank you both for the help, it has seemed to work.
