Armor macro

i'm sure this question has been asked before, but i'm not sure how to even start searching for this.

i have armor macros set up for Light armor, and robe armor.
the issue i am having is that when in combat, actively attacking...
the macro only does the last line in the macro.

i find this unusual.
this also happens with weapon/shield macros.

macro
use shortcut...
8 1 helmet
8 2 gloves
8 3 boots
8 4 main armor

i set it up this way because main armor is most obvious, so if it failed, i could always do it again.

some time back, for some reason it started only equipping the main armor piece. and when i try to switch to sword/shield combo i just get sword or shield depending on order of the macro.
normally if the macro is interrupted it will do the first line then end, so i find it weird that the last line happens, but the others don't.

has anyone else experienced this phenomenon?

I play spoiler who is also seeding while spoiling.
I have macro:
1. use seed
2. use spoil

and second macro
1. use harverster
2. use sweeper

Sometimes I notice that if I press macro harder, I mean my finger stays on the button longer than I need, macro does only second action. First one action like never exist.
I can click several times and still will get only second action done.
My resolve of the problem: to have seeds and harverster on the hotbar to click them if macro doesn't work :)
I know that it's stupid, but easier for me.
Dunno, maybe it's because I'm getting hits too... I will check it.

Try using /delay 1

You can change the value of seconds if you want but try it.

I having that issue with my buffer toon. I have all my buffs in a macro and sometimes it will skip a buff for no reason.

Try what I said.

Skipping buffs in a macro is something that many times happen to me when macro has more than 6-7 buffs,seems like a macro with 10-12 slots buffs cant work without problems.By adding delay 1 doesnt help cause its not a matter of not having the time to perform the actions,seems to me its a matter of stucking or laging.Cant understand this other way since i use those macros everyday and some times skips the last buff,rarely skipps a buff in the middle of macro.Most of the times this happens when i have maximizied c.speed on pp (bsss open,pow,or con dance).

Very rarely has happened with macro for recharge also,which is /target atarth,recharge/delay1/recharge....se wasnt targeting me,i had to click on her ,then on me,then press macro and then was working.

SKipping buffs happens if you lag on that computer.

I have 10-12 buffs in PP buff macro and it only skips if the PP:

1. Out of Spirit Ore (will Skip Gr. Shield/Might)
2. Is Out of Party (will Skip Zerk/Holy Weapon)
3. Lags or Freezes
