Macro code

/party, /countdown

/p Pulling in 10 seconds.
/countdown 10

What this does

Tells the party that the pull begins in ten seconds and starts the game's shared ten-second countdown. It aligns common opener preparation before combat.

How to use

Run it once after the ready check and positioning are complete. If the strategy needs another duration, change both the chat sentence and `/countdown 10` to the same value.

Requirements

Confirm that every party member is ready and establish that you are responsible for the countdown.

  • Requires or messages a party

Notes

The macro cannot evaluate readiness or detect an unprepared member. Keep the announced and actual durations consistent, and avoid duplicate countdowns from multiple players.
