Macro «Gloria Auto Skill Loop» for «Ragnarok»

Macro Name: Eternal Blessing – Gloria Buff Automation



Purpose:
The Gloria skill is a game-changer in Ragnarok Online, providing a massive boost of +30 LUK to the caster and all party members. LUK is a crucial stat that enhances various aspects of gameplay, including:


Critical Rate: Increases the chance to land critical hits.

Accuracy: Improves the ability to hit targets.

Physical and Magical Attack: Boosts overall damage output.

Dodge: Increases the chance to evade attacks.

Success Rates: Enhances probabilities for potion creation, item crafting, and other skills reliant on LUK.


However, the short duration of 30 seconds, even at Level 5, makes manual reapplication tedious during intense gameplay. This macro automates the process, ensuring Gloria is active consistently, with an interval of 20 seconds when set to Level 3. 

Adjust the interval based on your preferred skill level.



Supported Job Classes:
Acolyte
