Eruption Without the Reticle

Bypasses the ground-targeting ring and drops Eruption straight onto your target. The same trick works for any reticle spell, including Bomb Toss and 4-tonze Weight.

Where to paste this

Open the main menu → System → User Macros (or type /macro).
Pick a slot, name the macro and choose an icon — /macroicon "Spell Name" makes the button show that action’s cooldown and range.
Write one command per line, using /ac "Action Name" for abilities.
Add <wait.3> at the end of a line to pause three seconds before the next one.
Drag the macro from the User Macros window onto a hotbar slot.

Blue Mage macros first, then the rest of the FFXIV library.

Act on Your Focus Target
General
```
/micon "Your Action"
/merror off
/ac "Your Action" <f>
/ac "Your Action" <t>
```
<f> points an action at your focus target regardless of what you have selected. Set your co-tank or the enemy you need to watch as focus, and the macro becomes a permanent second target you can act on at will.

/micon "Angel Whisper" blueaction
/merror off
/ac "Swiftcast" <wait.1>
/p Raising <t>

Swiftcasts a raise and then walks every party slot until one lands. Angel Whisper has a long cooldown, so the chat call-out stops a second raiser wasting theirs on the same body.

Cactguard on Your Target of Target
Blue Mage
```
/micon "Cactguard" blueaction
/merror off
/blueaction "Cactguard" <tt>
```
Shields whoever your target is attacking, which in practice means the tank. The same pattern works for any co-tank mitigation in the game.
Feather Rain Without the Reticle
Blue Mage
```
/micon "Feather Rain" blueaction
/blueaction "Feather Rain" <t>
```
The Feather Rain version of the reticle skip. It shares a cooldown with Eruption, so most Blue Mages keep both macros side by side.
Magic Hammer and Addle
Blue Mage
```
/micon "Magic Hammer" blueaction
/ac "Addle" <wait.1>
/blueaction "Magic Hammer"
```
Stacks the two magic damage reductions in one press. They apply separately, so the combined debuff is stronger than either alone.
Phantom Flurry
Blue Mage
```
/micon "Phantom Flurry" blueaction
/blueaction "Phantom Flurry" <wait.5>
/blueaction "Phantom Flurry"
```
Starts Phantom Flurry, lets the damage over time run its course, and then fires the finisher. The five-second wait is what makes the finisher land reliably.
Swiftcast Diamondback
Blue Mage
```
/micon "Diamondback" blueaction
/ac "Swiftcast" <wait.1>
/blueaction "Diamondback"
```
Swiftcast into Diamondback for an instant damage wall. Note the wait needs a number — a bare wait tag is silently ignored, which is why so many copied versions of this macro fail.
Swiftcast Loom
Blue Mage
```
/micon "Loom" blueaction
/ac "Swiftcast" <wait.1>
/blueaction "Loom"
```
An instant dash, which is worth a great deal in the Masked Carnivale and to controller players in general. Again, the wait needs its number to work.
