Macros may be out, but you can still gain an advantage in SWTOR!

No Macros at Launch – What Next?

| Filed under Macro Basics

It’s been recently confirmed that Star Wars: The Old Republic will not support macros at the launch of the game. Many players were understandably frustrated with that decision, myself included, as being able to automate certain spell rotations is very helpful in any MMORPG.

Bioware however decided that macros system will be implemented later on in the game. We don’t know any other details at this point, but you can be sure this site will bring any related news as they come.

Until then, there aren’t many ways how you can automate anything in The Old Republic. Using any kind of third party software to simulate keystrokes and similar is most certainly against the terms of use and it’s likely your account may be banned for using such methods. The only “legal” way currently is to obtain Razer SWTOR hardware: the mouse and the keyboard come with several predefined buttons performing a variety of functions.

The biggest downside to this is obviously the extreme costs: $250 for the keyboard and $140 for the mouse. That’s nearly $400 worth of peripherals, just to be able to quickly cast a few spells. Whether it’s worth it or not is up to you.

Star Wars: The Old Republic Macros

| Filed under Macro Basics

In Star Wars The Old Republic, much like in a lot of other similar games players can set up their own custom macros. Macros are basically a set of commands you can set up for your character, for example casting several spells in a particular order or depending on the target selected.

A very basic example of a useful macro is one that casts a heal if your target is an ally, or cast a damaging spell if it’s an enemy. This frees up your action bars and enables you to have more spells bound to less keys and can also save a lot of time. You can also set up such a macro to work on a target you have your mouse pointer currently at which means you won’t have to waste time even clicking on the target you want to cast a spell on.

Overall macros are extremely useful to have, and finding the best possible spell combinations and useful macros can be tricky for players who aren’t experienced in it. That’s why this site will provide you with the best SWTOR macros for all classes and all you have to do is copy/paste them into the in-game macro editor.

We hope you will find this resource useful. If you have your own macro you would like to submit, you can do so here. Thanks!
