    Saving Skill Sets

    I know it's a fairly small thing to ask for, especially as a luxury feature but I'd love to see the game hold a memory of our skillbar setups for each class and recall them whenever we switch back to that class. It's a minor inconvenience to switch all my skills back or write macros for all of them but it's still an inconvenience. A small feature like this would make a world of difference in the ease of play for some.

    I think this would be brilliant idea, you need so many macros to change classes, and so many classes

    This would be very convenient. Right now I have 3 macros for abilities, 1 for gear, and 1 for traits for CON. With the slow speed of macro execution, it takes well over a minute to switch.

    This is what bugs me about macros. They seem so sluggish, as if the game needs a second to react to every line.

    I'd love a way to save action sets. Especially if it got rid of having to deal with that pesky shield of mine dropping guard in the first available slot when I change to a shield user.

    In a game with this much customization in terms of load-out a full skill set save and maybe even an armor set up save like Ye Olde Wardrobe plug-in in WoW would be nice. (yes I referenced WoW, /end world here.)

    It's not just that you would want to switch load-outs for different jobs but you may even want to setup a few load-outs for the same job like CON healing v. nuking for example.

    Yes please, I would say it's needed more than a luxury but that's just me. This would be one of those little things that goes a long way.

    It would be nice to see this. I'm not against using macros, but for some reason I can't get the lancer ability "Pierce" to set via macro.
