Little embarrassed to ask this but it's always been something fun I've done among my characters to better immerse myself. I would typically make a macro for a specific skill I rarely use or something that's beneficial to let a person know they need to take advantage, like how some people have their raise macros tell a player to get up.
For me I had one on my dragoon's Battle Litany that said something along the lines of..
/macro icon "Battle Litany"
/ac Battle Litany
/wait 1 (I learned this neat trick to prevent me from mashing the key to spamming the chat up whenever I was in a panic trying to get a skill to work)
/party "My Lances strength to all of you! Forward!!! <se.3>((Battle Litany))"
Again I typically kept it to something I'd rarely use that had a very long cd or was very situational, in the above's case... Something I wanted people to acknowledge they had their crit buff active and to go all out.
This wasn't something I could very easily do on my machinist without it getting extremely annoying.... However I did manage to make one for his limit break like I did my dragoon that was actually useful in letting the tank or whoever had aggro of 50 mobs on them to hold still so my LB doesn't miss e.e. Went something like...
/macro icon "Limit Break"
/ac Limit Break
/party "Hold it steady... <se.10>((limit break))"
/wait 3
/party "Aim.... FIRE!!! <se.3>"
The initial sound I made to alert people to keep it together and the latter I added in just because it feels like an actual FF limit break when you see the animation for that go off and hear that lil "select" sound. Helped a ton in some sticky situations in palace of the dead >~>;
Now I'm at my caster and I have two macro's for my limit break. One is a basic "hold it steady" thing I can't really remember at the moment that's just one line and let's me aim the limit break into position very specifically. The other is instant cast and let's me use the LB exactly where the mob(s) is/are standing, helpful for when I need to cast asap... My issue is I only have half of the macro thought up of. So... I'd like to hear some of your RP based macros if you have any. I don't plan to use anything obnoxious or out of character either, I just need some proper inspiration x.x... Been trying to come up with something that's more confident sounding but without sounding stuck up or full of himself. Something around the concept of my opponent being careless. Hell I've even thought about it just being "Such carelessness...." But that feels too plain and simple x.x, it could also be seen as me remarking to a party member lmao. Idk...
tl;dr: Got roleplay/IC based macros? Lemme see/hear em, I need inspiration! Suggestion not to use these kinda macros or an OOC thing? Kindly look elsewhere please.
