White Mage Cure Macro : FFXI General Discussions

/p Casting Cure on <t>
/ma "Cure" <st>

then use the F1-F6 keys to select the target and press enter.

Only problem is that sometimes your /p message will say you're curing one person while you really cast it on another

Proper macro is as follows

/ma "Cure III" <st> or <stpc>
/p Casting Spell Cure 3 <lastst>



the <st> lets you switch to any target
the <stpc> will only let you sellect player characters

I really think having party chats in macro's add's no benefits and is really annoying

its actually really helpfull especially when there are two healers, it sucks to waste mp cause both cure II someone.. nice to have a warning

I completely agree.


#1 If you need 2 healers, you're in a bad party. Get out.
#2 "Leegoollassss begins to cast cure on Legolasx." is a warning.

Struth just plain struth sure people post sometimes without actually playing the game.

Party chat is very useful from mages etc, as wel as everyone else. Either that or the whole worlds gone mad and all the high level parties are getting it wrong. If you don't like it filter it and don't complain when you get kicked

Party macros are incredibly annoying. I'm sorry but anyone that really needs a macro to do a skillchain is just lazy and doesn't really want to contribute to the party. (sorry for "beating a dead horse". just noticed this thread hasn't had a post in a long time)

Actually, when playing ranger I HATE those idiots thinking no macro is needed who just fire of their ws expecting others to follow up, which means as a ranger I have no time to use abilities if I'm even able to use my ws in time.

hell yeah, about the only things i use party chat w/ macros is my skillchain and my cover ability.

It depends on What you doing Plz Take thenm Off when doing Dynamis--??? - , take everyone off. but after that It's a good thing to have. BLm dont really nedd many except for enfenbling magic so rdm dont have to cast the same.
nuking -- no need.
healing sure
Rdmn Sure but none for Nuking, If you dont you gonna get lots of these.
X>> Silence plz
rdm>> already did .
X >> Dispel plz.
rdm>> On my 3rd now
Y>> refresh plz
Rdm>> Not ready yet.

My refresh tactic >> Me , PLD , WHm , BLm.

Whites dont need to party what they are doing. When ever Im white and another Mage is helping to Heal I tell them on who to concentrate and I also let them know that If the see my target go under a certain HP to help heal. That way We are not lost when something !@#$%^&* up happens.

Another thing 2 whites work Good when they alternate and the Pty can do enough damage to keep chains up. Their is no down time and the pty will have at all times one white with over have MP ready for Use.

On the other hand if it's taking 2 whites to keep the pty alive every fight. YES BY ALL MEANS LEAVE.

Wow that is some hard targetting specially if you are camping close to many non-aggro mob or another party, and worst if you are in an alliance. Here is the proper and easy way to macro as WHM:

Ctrl + 1
/p <CURE> ===> <p0>
/ma "Cure" <p0>
/wait 5
/p MP: <mp> <mpp>
....
Ctrl + 6
/p <CURE> ===> <p5>
/ma "Cure" <p5>
/wait 5
/p MP: <mp> <mpp>

<p0> is You from the Party List on the bottom right corner of your screen
<p1> is the Member Below You from the Party List
<p2> is the Member Below <p1>
...so on

By using <pX>, you don't need to target party member to heal them.

I have Ctrl+1 - Ctrl+6 set to "Cure" and Alt+1 - Alt+6 set to "Cure II".

Ctrl+7 = Silence
Ctrl+8 = Dia
Ctrl+9 = Protectra
Ctrl+0 = Protect <t> (used usually on puller if not around for Protectra)

Alt+7 = /item "Apple Pie" <me> (or any pie you can afford)
Alt+8 = /item "Orange Juice" <me> (or any juice you can afford)
Alt+9 = /item "Hi Ether" <me> (just in case of emergency)
Alt+0 = /ma "Benediction" <me> (just in case things gets ugly)

I have this setup in my Macro Set #4, so I just switch to it whenever I'm in a party.

To say there is no need to tell the pt about you using an SC is just plain stupid. It is useful in more ways than one. It gives you one more way to notify the person following you to prepare for it and it tells the blm and/or rdm to get ready for the MB. I find calls more annoying than party chat info. You don't need to tell the PT about everything you do but some things are nice. Also consider when two blink tanks are bouncing hate. Knowing the other blink is tryin to get thier shadows back up is very useful info. When you stop and think about it, using the filters properly like move the dmg to onscreen only and removing anything other pts do not pertaining to your pt severely cuts down on the speed that the text scrolls by making it easy to read past the party chat that doesn't pertain to you, afterall I think thats what's truly bothering you chat not meant for you.

EDIT: I will concent to the fact that /p chat for heal macros isn't needed but is handy when you do have two healers, the one up one down kind that is. If it does take two whm to keep the pt alive during one fight then leave lol.

SC /p is almost a most. At least a warning to give the Bl a chance to prepare for MB Burst.

But White /p Healing P1 Cure 1 it pretty useless since a White should be the only one healing. Especailly the tank.

Like the 1st time I saw a RED do CONVERT. SCARED the !@#$%^&* out of me. I got use to it after seeing it a few times.

Their are always cases where you should party what you are doing like for SC MB. Healing most of the times noo. Only place would be an Party x18 and even then I can see it being done without it.

Please Keeping in Mind I am only talking about Healing. SC and MB Macros are very usefull.
