VIDEO TUTORIAL: making a SUPERBUFF skill using macros

[Michelasso]

That video is great. But it raises on me sooo many questions!! For starting (beware. I am a total noob on macros! ):

1. How did you automatically change hotbar switching to fighting mode?
2. How can it be so fast? It is something with the tank actions? It's like if using the macro there is no recast time.
3. Icons. Can we really customize the macro icons?
4. Were you using a mouse? That was the PS3 version right? Your HUD looks cleaner than mine.

That video is great. But it raises on me sooo many questions!!

1. I did a video tutorial called "easier crossbars & targeting" a while back that shows you exactly how to switch crossbars to have a "battle" crossbar.

2. Not sure what you mean by fast, but there is cooldown on the skills applied by the macro.

3. You can manually pick the icon for your macro grid/ macro icon... or you can use the macro code to apply an already known skill icon as the macro icon.

4. Yup, I'm on a PS3. I have a sony bluetooth keypad that attaches to my controller, sometimes when I make videos I attach a mouse and keyboard. The HUD is a new variation of the setup I had before.

my setup now is a little different because I had to adjust it for larger party instances.
