    Considering a macro is between your mouse / keyboard software and your mouse / keyboard, I wouldn’t imagine so. It’s not changing anything in the game.

    I believe they are a "use at your own risk" type of situation, in the same way that custom character portraits and perk icons are.

    To elaborate, I don't think the developers go out of their way to ban for this but if the game's anti-cheat detects you're using them and bans you automatically, they won't help you get unbanned.

    EAC is a kernel-level anti-cheat. Something doesn't have to interact directly with the application to cause EAC to trip. Otherwise EAC would run on a VM without a KVM and GPU pass thru. It runs timing checks on the CPU, for instance.
