CAUTION!
This article is only a guide. Information expressed in a guide is usually more opinion than fact and should be taken as such. Guides are written by players, based upon their experiences, successes and mistakes, and are meant to aid other players. However, there may be differing opinions than those expressed in a guide.
Strategies and information in guides may not work for everyone.

Summoner Macro Guide

A guide to organizing your Summoner macro books for the level 75 cap. One Avatar per page, one button per ability, no fumbling mid-fight.

Overview

Summoner has more abilities than any other job — every Avatar comes with its own Blood Pact set. Rather than cramming everything into one macro set, this guide gives each Avatar its own page with a central "Hub" to navigate between them.


Tips & Tricks

  • Alt line is identical on every page. Assault, Retreat, support spells, Avatar's Favor, and Astral Flow are always in the same spot. Muscle memory saves lives!
  • Blood Pact: Rage and Blood Pact: Ward have separate timers. Use a Rage and a Ward back-to-back. Smart rotation: Rage → Ward → wait → repeat.
  • Release before resummoning. You can't summon a new Avatar while one is out.
  • /wait 7 for summoning. Ensures the page doesn't switch before the spell finishes.
  • Label your macros clearly. Names like "FlmCrsh" or "Hastega" help you find things at a glance.
  • Don't spam party chat. Only announce what the party needs — Sleepga warnings, Hastega_(Blood_Pact), key debuffs.

Timer Check Macro

/echo Rage: <recast=Blood Pact: Rage>
/echo Ward: <recast=Blood Pact: Ward>
/echo Astral: <recast=Astral Flow>


Macro Basics

  • Each macro has 6 lines of commands.
  • 20 slots per set — 10 on Ctrl, 10 on Alt.
  • Switch pages with /macro book # and /macro set #.
  • /pet "Ability" <t> — command your Avatar.
  • /ma "Spell" <me> — cast a spell yourself.
  • /wait # — delay between lines (decimals like /wait 0.5 work).
  • /p — party chat. /echo — only you see it.

Command Reference

Command What It Does Example
/ma Cast a spell /ma "Cure III" <stpc>
/ja Use a Job Ability /ja "Astral Flow" <me>
/pet Command your Avatar /pet "Flaming Crush" <t>
/equip Equip a single item /equip main "Fire Staff"
/equipset Equip a saved gear set /equipset 5
/macro book Switch macro book /macro book 1
/macro set Switch macro set (page) /macro set 3
/wait Pause between commands /wait 7
/p Party chat /p Hastega incoming!
/echo Private message (only you) /echo Timer ready

Targeting

Code Targets
<me> Yourself
<t> Current target
<stpc> Select a party member (cursor appears)
<stnpc> Select a monster/NPC (cursor appears)
<p0> to <p5> Party member by slot

Avoid <bt> (battle target) — it causes targeting issues in parties with multiple mobs.

Macro Book Layout

Each book has 10 pages (sets), and each page has 10 Ctrl + 10 Alt slots = 20 macros. All 9 Avatars plus a Hub fit in one book.

Set Contents
Set 1 Hub — Summon macros + navigation
Set 2 Carbuncle
Set 3 Ifrit
Set 4 Shiva
Set 5 Garuda
Set 6 Titan
Set 7 Ramuh
Set 8 Leviathan
Set 9 Fenrir
Set 10 Diabolos

Standard Alt Line

The Alt line is identical on every Avatar page for muscle memory. Slots 3-8 are White Magic support spells — swap these to whatever you prefer for your sub job.

Slot Macro Notes
Alt+1 Assault Pet command
Alt+2 Retreat Pet command
Alt+3 Cure II Personal preference
Alt+4 Cure III Personal preference
Alt+5 Poisona Personal preference
Alt+6 Silena Personal preference

Elemental Siphon Macro

  • Note:This isn't available on HorizonXI but I can dream they will hook us up someday...

Summon a spirit, siphon MP, release. Match the spirit to the current day/weather for maximum MP return.

Example (Fire Spirit):

/ma "Fire Spirit" <me>
/wait 4
/ja "Elemental Siphon" <me>
/wait 1
/pet "Release" <me>

Swap "Fire Spirit" for whichever element matches the day or weather.


Gear Swap Tips

Equip your matching elemental staff to reduce Avatar perpetuation cost. The Hub summon macros above already include staff swaps.

Avatar Staff
Ifrit Fire Staff
Shiva Ice Staff
Garuda Wind Staff
Titan Earth Staff
Ramuh Thunder Staff
Leviathan Water Staff
Fenrir Dark Staff
Diabolos Dark Staff
Carbuncle Light Staff

Blood Pact Gear Swap

Equip bonus gear before the pact fires, then swap back after:

/equipset 5
/pet "Flaming Crush" <t>
/wait 4
/equipset 6

Allow at least /wait 0.5 between swaps for lag.


Funny & Goofy Summoning Quotes

Add these to your summon or Blood Pact macros for party entertainment. Mix and match as you please.
Again in most situations for spammy spells and in general its best to not spam party chat and focus on helpful info on abilities like Sleepga or Hastega but not really needed.

Chat Etiquette

  • Use /echo for jokes only you see — never annoys anyone.
  • Use /p sparingly — funny the first time, not the 400th.
  • Use /say for flavor — nearby players see it but it won't clutter party chat.
