Macro Equip Slot

This macro will equip your main hand weapon (Slot 17) and off hand weapon or shield (Slot 18) with a left click, and your other weapon/shield with a right click. Alternatively, if you just want to switch out your offhand, you could use /equipslot18 Weapon; /equipslot18 Other Weapon. The most important equipment slots to remember are: 13 – Trinket 1 14 – Trinket 2. Adding an equipslot # to your macro will activate the respective on-use trinket. For example, if you have an Ancient Petrified Seed equipped in your bottom trinket slot, you could macro it in with Bestial Wrath, like this. Equips or Unequips an item. First int is the equip slot of char (1-17), second int is from the backpack (61-120). If only one int is passed, it will remove the item from the equip slot. /script EquipItem (17,81); Equips the item in bagslot 81 to offhand EquipPendingItem GetActionCooldown Returns action's cooldown. A Macro is a customizable hotkey with 5 lines (1 command per line and a pause), you can store 12 per page and have 10 pages of macros. Common macros, include pulling, spell casting, corpse dragging. Your macros are stored per character file 'Yourcharacternameproject1999.ini' in your EQ directory.

Pause

Pause commands are special as they are executed at the end of each macro line even though they are typed at the front. Pauses a macro sequence for 10 * x milliseconds. The actual value is a little lower, so /pause 500 is approximately 60 seconds +/- a couple seconds for server ticks. Pause cannot go over 70 seconds.

Remember to account for your latency to the server when adding pauses in your macro. A higher latency may require a longer pause than someone with a lower latency.

Equipment slots in macros

When creating macros based on 'click to use' items (especially trinkets), the common practice is to enter the actual item name. However, using the numeric equipment slot identifiers eliminates the need to manually modify macros after upgrading a particular item.

These slot designations are particularly handy for engineers whose Tinker enhancements and Engineering-only items add and/or posses an 'on use' ability for items in the Back, Belt, Foot and Head slot that would not normally posses such capability for non-engineers.

Here are is a complete list of each equipment slot and its numeric designation for macro purposes

Patch changes
