Macros

NOTE: For optimal DPS, you always want to cast a "verquick" spell--Jolt, Impact, Verstone, or Verfire--followed immediately by a Dualcast-buffed "verslow" spell--Veraero or Verthunder. Several macros below will auto-check your most powerful verquick spell available for you at the push of a button, relieving you of the responsibility of constantly checking them and putting them on separate hotkeys. It's been noted that using these perform system checks that cause a very slight delay in casting. However, casting weaker spells costs you potency that has a much larger impact on your DPS, and human reaction time can often cause a significantly longer delay. So, unless you are proficient enough to constantly cast your best spell available without any delay whatsoever, the net benefit will more than outweigh any system delay.

Neutral Magic Macro

  • /macroicon "Impact"
  • /macroerror off
  • /actionerror off
  • /ac "Impact" <t>
  • /ac "Jolt II" <t>
  • /ac "Jolt" <t>


This macro uses Impact when ever it's available. Otherwise it will use Jolt/Jolt II.

Black Magic Macro

  • /macroicon "Verfire"
  • /macroerror off
  • /actionerror off
  • /ac "Verfire" <t>
  • /ac "Impact" <t>
  • /ac "Jolt II" <t>
  • /ac "Jolt" <t>


This macro uses your most powerful Black magic "verquick" spell available by first checking if Verfire is available, then Impact, then Jolt--your weakest verquick spell--at the highest level available (useful for when you are synced to a lower level). For optimal DPS, follow this up with a "verslow" spell, such as Veraero or Verthunder. If you prefer this strictly boost ONLY Black magic, remove the line with Impact from your macro, but doing so will slightly lower your total DPS.

White Magic Macro

  • /macroicon "Verstone"
  • /macroerror off
  • /actionerror off
  • /ac "Verstone" <t>
  • /ac "Impact" <t>
  • /ac "Jolt II" <t>
  • /ac "Jolt" <t>


This macro uses your most powerful White magic "verquick" spell available by first checking if Verstone is available, then Impact, then Jolt--your weakest verquick spell--at the highest level available (useful for when you are synced to a lower level). For optimal DPS, follow this up with a "verslow" spell, such as Veraero or Verthunder. If you prefer this strictly boost ONLY White magic, remove the line with Impact from your macro, but doing so will slightly lower your total DPS.

Power Verraise

  • /micon "Verraise"
  • /ac "Verraise" <t>
  • /ac "Verraise" <1>
  • /ac "Verraise" <2>
  • /ac "Verraise" <3>
  • /ac "Verraise" <4>
  • /ac "Verraise" <5>
  • /ac "Verraise" <6>
  • /ac "Verraise" <7>
  • /ac "Verraise" <8>


This macro simplifies targeting with Verraise. The priority is your current target if it is valid (a dead player) or the first dead player in your party in descending order. You may optionally add a check for Swiftcast first by adding [ /ac "Swiftcast" <wait.1> ] (without the brackets) into line 2, but this will slightly delay your cast time. It is recommended instead that you use this macro while you have the Dualcast buff.
