[Feature Request] Summon All for Summoner and more! #265

This seems to have been overlooked. The summons don't really have to be called in any specific order for decent DPS, depending on if you want to clear rooms faster unsynced.

My macro:

Summon All /micon "Aethercharge" /macroerror off /ac "Aethercharge" /ac "Summon Bahamut" /ac "Summon Phoenix" /ac "Summon Titan" /ac "Summon Garuda" /ac "Summon Ifrit"

Because it works. XD it's set up this way for clearing rooms since Ifrit Ruins cast the slowest except for Slipstream with Garuda.

All that's missing is the icon changing except for Bahamut and Phoenix. If it changed for all the summons, that would be nice, but reverting to Bahamut or Phoenix when up.

Furthermore, the attacks can be comboed shamelessly!

Single Targets /micon "Gemshine" /macroerror off /ac "Lucid Dreaming" /ac "Addle" /ac "Searing Light" /ac "Astral Flow" /ac "Enkindle Bahamut" /ac "Ruin IV" /ac "Energy Drain" /ac "Fester" /ac "Gemshine" /ac "Ruin"

AOEs /micon "Precious Brilliance" /macroerror off /ac "Lucid Dreaming" /ac "Searing Light" /ac "Astral Flow" /ac "Enkindle Bahamut" /ac "Ruin IV" /ac "Energy Siphon" /ac "Painflare" /ac "Precious Brilliance" /ac "Tri-disaster"

Likewise, the icon doesn't change to reflect what's up... but this reduces Summoner to a three button mashing fest. XD

Combo Plugin could make it a bit better!

Oh god this is horrible.

So there are a LOT of issues with this. First of all, the order of summons matter and summons do different things. You're looking to automate the job in a braindead way and this is NOT what combo plugin is for. For example, if you know you need a lot of movement, you might opt to intentionally summon titan (and you'll also have to weave mountain busters). If you know you have a burst window or a small window of time you'll need to move, you will summon garuda and try to find a place to fit in slipstream.

On top of that, the way you are macroing these is absolutely going to clip your GCD and cause a major damage loss. Please never macro any combat abilities unless they only execute one action! For example, macroing raise is ok with a message to send to the group letting them know you are raising. Macroing shirk to always shirk to <2> is also ok.

I would love to say that GIOPanaro is right. However, they seem to overlook a good reason why people might be using macros. They might be disabled/impaired. Is it "okay" for disabled people to play these types of games? 90% of the people looking into these things are most likely on that spectrum. You can go on about "what you need to do" but if you cant physically do it, what then? Also, why are Actions able to be put into Macros in the first place? For the most part, it would seem that Square Enix should fix the macro implantation or remove the ability to use combat actions.
