Steam Forums user nkhoang has released a controversial macro tool called the Magicka Spell Helper. Basically you can assign spells to a single key. This would help on those really complex spells. It would also make it real convienant for speed boosting/personal defense shielding.
I guess it boils down to a moral issue. Macro tools already exist and are probably already being used by some folks. Some people have hardware macro enabled mouses. Personally I like the challenge of trying to recall a spell from memory. Since the game is cooperative I don’t have too big an issue if someone decides to use a macro tool. I would have a problem if the person went around disrupting the game or if Paradox decides they are going to release a deathmatch mode.
Anyway, you can read more about Magicka Spell Helper at the following link:

Also please post your own thoughts on this utility.
Why did nobody already responded. This blog does a great job!
Back to topic:
There are several gamers out there with macro supporting consoles and mouses. And even with software its easy to set some of those.
I have a similar opinion like the author: Its a thing which has to be decided by everyone themselves. But in tournament match up it would be unfair versus “non macro users”.
I love the possibilities of this tool. Unfortunately, It’s not working for me. Am I supposed to save it somewhere special?
The is about making spells by yourself, this Helper sucks.
i like this tool cause it makes people mad
