Why are their no macro's again?

Again, macro's are optional and very opinionated. If you think your better without macro's then simply state it to yourself and move on. Say something that explains why other players shouldn't have them, or leave the thread. Otherwise I will just report you for harassment.

That is a very good response... But at the same time, I'm not very big on teamwork PvP. I do realize it's an MMO and should be focused on teamwork. But I don't rely on other players really well. But hindering 1 players performance isn't a good way to fix it. That's the same as saying, "I shouldn't play my best, because my teammate will do the work for me."

I do understand this isn't much of a game to "go pro" in... But I still like the PvP, and it's far from awful. But let's say I'm just doing PvP for the cool gear for roleplay. I still want to have fun in those Warzone grinds. And it's more fun to be rewarded for your efforts. I try hard, I play hard. Macro's simply let me do things in my own way. Again... It's optional.

Macro's a great. I have multiple set up.

I have rocket boost and a mount. So what I did was macro my mount, then a .05 second delay, then my rocket boost.

This way no matter where I am all I have to do is tap one button and if my mount can not activate, my rocket boost will.

I also have one for buffing.

I have a permanent med stim and buffs. My macro allows me to use my stim, select myself, buff, reselect my last enemy. This way I always use my stim and buff at the same time without an error message because I am still targeting another player.

Oh yeah, I also have one for healing. I use my PvP Adrenal and Medpack first followed by my normal permanent med pack. That way when ever I need heals I can tap one button and in PvP heal using my PvP base medpacks and if I am in PvE I will just use my normal med pack.

You are 100% correct. Only bad players use macro's. Not players who can logically bind multiple actions so they do not interrupt each other.

Nikkalos, you need a macro that won't let you quote and reply to yourself.

A macro that enables you to get on the speeder or a rocket boost?

Macro... that won't let me quote... You just proved you don't even know what a macro is. And your telling players they shouldn't be allowed to have them?

The only thing I've just proven is your lack of ability to detect sarcasm.

Those are some really cool macros... But I think there's something about third party programs being against the rules... So however your using those macro's is probably against the rules. So I thank you for supporting macro's, but perhaps you shouldn't so openly admit to currently using them like that.
