How to use Macros for Ninjutsus?

[Rongway]

The jutsus are really easy if you have the mudras arranged correctly on your bars. Put Chi down, Jin left or right, Ten up, Ninjutsu opposite Jin. By doing this Earth is at the bottom and Heaven is at the top, with Man in the middle.

Then you have the following jutsus:

• Raiton - lightning strikes downward to the earth quickly
• Katon - flames rise into the air quickly
• Huton - energy flows through all three in an upward motion, into the air
• Doton - energy flows through all three in a downward motion into the ground; alternatively, man reaches to the sky and pulls energy down into the ground
• Hyoton and Suiton - man is 75% water, just remember that a two step jutsu is ice and a three step jutsu is water.

Visual guide:

The only lossless macros for ninjutsu involve changing the hotbar so that every jutsu is 1234 or 234. For example, if the next jutsu you want to use is Suiton, you press the Suiton button any time in advance and it changes your bar to Ten-Chi-Jin-Ninjutsu but doesn't perform any actions. Then when it comes time to use it, you press 1234. Then maybe you press the button for Hyoton so you can use Hyosho Ranryu and it changes your bar to blank-Ten-Jin-Ninjutsu. Then you press 234 to activate to activate that one.

This is really an overcomplicated process when you could just arrange the mudras correctly on your bar and spend some time hitting a dummy to learn the jutsus, though. I'm only mentioning it because if someone were to ask, "are there macros to help with Ninjutsu that don't drift your GCD" the strict answer is, "yes".
