Feedback: "/chotbar set" and "/hotbar set" commands

[Reviluno]

Hi there, fellow Eorzeans!

I'm a new player, on PS4, & started with SCH/SMN. When switching between pets, I wanted the newly summoned pet's skills to replace existing pet skills. I wrote the following macros to switch out all skills upon summon, so that I didn't have to assign skills for each pet to separate hotbars:

/merror off
/chotbar pet "Embrace" "Eos" 1 LA3
/chotbar pet "Whispering Dawn" "Eos" 1 LA2
/chotbar pet "Fey Covenant" "Eos" 1 LA4
/chotbar pet "Fey Illumination" "Eos" 1 LA1
/ac "Summon"
/wait 5
/pac "Obey" <me>
/micon "Summon"

Using the above template, I now have similar macros for all pets on both my SCH & SMN. Personally, I find these really useful, but then I'm new & have only just hit lvl 40. The macros might need a bit of tweaking, once more skills are available, to move them to other action buttons, but that's easy to remedy.

Hope the above helps & I wish you all the best in your adventures.

To break the above macro down, as I understand, for clarity:

/merror off - turns off any macro based errors in chat log only (Not on screen!)

/chotbar pet "Action" "Pet Name" # LA# - "/chotbar" or "/hotbar", depending on your setup, is your primary macro action. "Pet" identifies the following action as that of your pet. "Pet Name" must follow the action, to tell the system which pet it's assigned to.

/ac "Action" - Casts your preferred summon action.

/wait # - This allows for the cast time of the summon, before issuing the final command.

/pac "Obey" <me> - Brings the pet out of Free Mode, which they always seem to summon in as for me.

/micon "Action" - Helpful to use the same action here, as the original, to help easily identify in the hotbar.
