Summoning Magic Leveling Macro settings! : FFXI General Discussions

If you dont have XU and their bot program here is something that will help!

Only need 2 spots or 5 for all

Macro #A
1. /ma "carbuncle" <me> <---Name of Avaatar
2. /wait 8
3. /pet "Release" <me>
4. /wait 1
5. /ma "Shiva" <me> <---Name of Avaatar

Macro #B
1. /pet "Release" <me>
2. /wait 1
3. /ma "Garuda"<---Name of Avaatar
4. /wait 8
5. /pet "Release <me>

How to use
Hit Macro #A
as soon as Shiva appears wait 1 sec and use Macro #B
To make more than 2 macros
Cut and Paste and many as you want.

Just remeber that Macro #A needs Macro #B to finish the cycle
Macro #B will work by itself

Macro #A
1. /ma "carbuncle" <me> <---Name of Avaatar
2. /wait 9
3. /pet "Release" <me>
4. /wait 2
5. /ma "Shiva" <me> <---Name of Avaatar

Macro #B
1. /pet "Release" <me>
2. /wait 2
3. /ma "Garuda"<---Name of Avaatar
4. /wait 9
5. /pet "Release <me>

This is a little more Stable!

The 1st one is faster though by 4 secs. The 1st requires a little practice to get the timing down.

If you only have 2 once u finish Macro B give about 3 sec before Cycling them since they are so close the Avaatar cycle might not be Ready.

Macro #A
1. /ma "Fire Spirit" <me> <---Name of Spirit
2. /wait 6
3. /pet "Release" <me>
4. /wait 2
5. /ma "Ice Spirit" <me> <---Name of Spirit

Macro #B
1. /pet "Release" <me>
2. /wait 2
3. /ma "Air Spirit"<---Name of Spirit
4. /wait 6
5. /pet "Release <me>

These are the Spirit ones. Very important Wait until Macro #A is completely done before Starting Macro #B
In other words dont Start Macro B until 2 sec after Last Spirit of Macro #A has popped.

your a sneaky little SoB arent you http://www.taultunleashed.com/phpBB2/vi ... hp?t=21004

No I didnt see that one. Mines are different that yours with time.

I do wish I would have seen yours since it took me a while to get mine to work.

To prove it you dont have the Spirits timing. I had to find a way to lvl with the Spirits since I only had Carby until lvl 25.

Again I wish I would have seen yours. Since when making them by your self it takes about 2 hrs of changing.

I remade mine 2 days ago I just had to change the times from the spirits a little. Since i have more Avaatars now.

I do have a question for you. Do you know if it matters what you Summone to LVL the Summoning Magic or is it just the amount?

In other words do you have to summon different ones or can you Summon the same 3?

I have asked this to a couple of people and no ones knows.

sorry , once again for reacting strongly, but i have noticed your skill tends to go up less if you summon the same ones over and over, then after you summon a different one from the same three, you get like a +0.3, so i always use all of my avatars

Thank you!

I have noticed this too about Lvling Summoning Magic. I have 3 that I use and then I use 3 others when gaining stops it usually makes it go up. I taught it was just me though.

I have noticed a few more skill ups if you do them on the avatars weak day as well. i.e. using shiva on firesday. ... I don't only skill up with the weak avatar but I do notice when I run through them all that I tend to get skill ups on the weakended avatar much more than the others

Just luck ... probably ... lol

I have a bunch of macros that I run through that is like this too ^^ works very well but smn magic leveling is always boring.

Whoa! you mean I wasn't the only one out there that didn't have fenrir at lvl 1!! ... you know how many party invites looked like this for me before I got fenrir:

invite --> "{party} {Do You need it?}"
me --> "yes please!"
invite --> {Fenrir} {can I have it?}
me --> {Fenrir} X
invite --> "No thanks" "Have a nice day"

why the hell is someone worried about fenrir in the dunes or anywhere under lvl ~50 anyways. Fenrir and carby both somewhat suck until around ~50 when they get their better bloodpacts. Makes me angry that people don't think summoners are a good part in a party. You never see someone say "Hey a smn is looking for pt!!" ... unless they are desperate for a main healer.

It's a nice macro function. The only problem is that you have to estimate a wait time for the avatar to summon and release.

You can always cast them manually I guess instead of a Macro.

i cast them manually but i might try urs to see if it i like it better

I usually just have my macros for one macro per Avatar.
Summon avatar, /wait 9, release, move to next macro down the line as soon as the Avatars HP bar goes away. Its just as easy, and there's no guess work between times.

If youre trying to skill-up summoning, it would be alot easier to use some kind of bot. If you don't have access to the ones here (like me), maybe you should try AC Tool.

Not sure if its useful, but if it would help towards me getting a premium, I'll write a summoning magic script for AC Tool (with ffact).

Personally I find this much faster.

/ma "Earth Spirit" <me>
/wait 5
/pet "Release" <me>
/wait 5
/t <me> Cast

Best done with another spirit. The wait 5's are so that you don't waste MP waiting for the release which makes it more efficient, and the spirits are much faster to cast than actual avatars and in my experience I have had better skillups with spirits.

On a side note, if you want to skill up summoning magic nicely go to somewhere like The Boyahda Tree. Why? Because it's the safest, highest leveled area to get to as a Summoner.

I had been trying to skill up in Ronfaure for ages with about 1.5 in an hour. I went to The Boyahda Tree and attained, and capped, my skill about 10 levels ready for the mini-battles (63).

What difference is that going to make going to the Boyahda Tree? I personally put it down to the higher leveled mobs, as I did better in Valkurm than Ronfaure too. So before people are cynical about it, try it. You might be impressed.
