Even with animation canceling, you can not fit a large amount of abilities into a small time frame. You can use a basic weapon attack, an ability, a roll dodge, a bash and an ultimate all into one "animation window". No macro can overcome that without some sort of cheat program. Macroing is pointless and detrimental (it doesn't work well, especially with any lag) to your game play. If you think someone is pulling off four of a single ability (Surprise Attack) within one second, it has nothing to do with macros. They're hacking.
Really ?
Because the last time i've checked with a macro you can push AC to the limit, at the point that reapply your buffs result in a couple of weapon switch without see any ability cast.
If macro is look like cheating why do keyboard from example logitech and other game keyboard support macro then?

I suck at cc in the middle of battle admittedly and don't have a programmable keyboard so get stuck all the time in CC far too long lol.
You don't need a "maco" for that, I went to settings and reset the middle mouse button as my "cc break".
Doesn't work well, but then neither does banging on both L & R mouse keys (the default way)
Only macro that works is the animation cancel one.
You can put a light attack before any of your abilities ... (or a bash attack after or both)
Anything "longer" will mess your rotations.
Is it legit ?
Am not sure.

In cases of bad latency, framerate and fps then it is ill adviced to use macros, as it can cause you a heavy dps loss. This is why many of the top raiders do not use macros, or when they do it's for their spamable skill, so they don't ruin their hands by pushing the 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5 buttons on the keyboard lol
-that only goes for the players without a mice with many buttons, those who do just use that particular button on the mice, and don't setup a macro for it.

The same could be argued for uses with multiple monitors or a monster PC or connection that can handle ESO no lag or fps loss. So in this instance macroing shouldn't be blame but the in game system that allows macros to be made.
Makes you think: "Why do I have all this hypertech, why did I play that much, if it is of no use?", right?

Well. luckily ESO runs on the same 10fps in trials with a GTX1080 and 144hrz screen.. regardless of the computer.
If you have a macro that is animation canceling and tying multiple skills together to come out faster than intended, I would say that is the negative macro that should not be allowed.
It has to be hard to set up a macro like that tho because of all of the animation cancelling that you would have to account for. It would be damn impressive if someone did manage to set one up like that with all the perfect timings tho..
