1	Press the (PS4/PS5) or (Xbox) button on the icon of the macro you created.
2	Select Add to Hotbar.
3	Press the assigned button for the hotbar to execute the macro.

General Uses of Macros

Greeting Party Members

These are greeting macros used specifically for the party chat. The second line is recommended for console players to set their cross hotbar to Set 1.

Greeting the Free Company

To prevent yourself from accidentally chatting in a different channel, you can use this macro for directly greeting the Free Company you have joined.

Gear Set List Changes

Changing your gear set will also change your current job depending on what you have registered on the Gear Set Lists.

Macros Used for Battle

Focus on Tank Targets

This macro will automatically target whoever your Tank is focusing on. The number represents the order of the role from the top of the party list (You → Tank → DPS → Healer).

Hover Target to Heal

If you want to heal someone without having to change targets, this macro will allow you to do just that by moving your cursor on your ally target and typing in the code above.

List of Basic Macro Commands

Macro Commands List

Marcos scripts, especially Combat Macros, have two parts, the command (/text) and the target (<text>), which you will need both to execute the command.

Macro Tips and Troubleshooting

Create Easy to Use Macros

We recommend making simple macros that help with difficult actions rather than extremely complex ones since these tend to fail and not execute properly. Keep in mind that macros have a limit of 15 commands and cannot start other macros so try to keep them short and straight to the point.

Failing a Macro

Macros tend to fail whenever there are certain typos such as forgetting a space between the command and target. Make sure your macros have no typos and are using half-width spaces for them to be properly executed.
