Most classes I hold there's a singular question. And this is the reason I am posting about macros now...

The young mages often get confused about how to set up macros to hunt, which spells put there for better performance, which ones are not necessary... And I have been saying same: The way you set up your macro is personal and every mage will do it different from other. You must find which is better for you.

However I have been asking mages attending my classes to tell us about their macro, so the others can get the 'idea' and build a personal macro -smiles-

The spells used in most macros are:

- Paralyze
- Blind
- Invoke
- Heal
- Vex
- Any attack spell (Zap)
- Armor
- Sanctuary
- Confuse
- Return movement (unpara)

I've noticed, however, that some mages use Gateway and Return on macro. It might be usefull when you are low level and probably dont have all the spells above to put in macro. I personally think that Gateway and Return are just a waste of macro, but, again, it's a personal choice and you, as mage, must find the best way to set up your macro.

But keep in mind that It will be wise to have HEAL on macro... it can save your life or someone's life in your group. Sometimes to type
