[Wildstar] Macros

[3Beez]

Just wanted to start a thread that listed useful macros for Wildstar. If you have any please post. I will update when I can get back into game and grab mine

Im not sure if they ever opened them up completely or not.. there is no info on the web about them..no guide ect.. ( that i could find anyway ) In game there is not even icons yet. I was only able to do /follow../invite and /assist "name" but no /target for example. With the few macros i listed and in game keybinds i was able to follow and assist easy..but the macro system thus far is very limiting.

Hi guys this post will be really useful. A generic question on wildstar macros. Is it possible to create a difficult rotation or a skill repeat macro?

I tried out Wildstar for the first time yesterday, running two engineers as a test. I can't figure out how to map macros to a keybind. I can create the macro, but can't find any action bar to bind it to. Are they opened up as you level?

Yes. Press B to open up the action bar editor thingy. I don't know much more about it than that yet.

This is why ISBoxer's Quick Setup Wizard was adjusted (ISBoxer users, update via Help->About ISBoxer Toolkit) with special versions of "Follow Me" and "Assist Me" for WildStar in the latest version, which does not require setting up in-game key bindings or macros (as mentioned in my walkthrough video, this is done via copy/paste). Similarly, you can use the Mapped Key Wizard to set up a "Text Entry" mapped key (also part of the ISBoxer update, but this is otherwise done via Key String Action); one line of text can be pasted (e.g. "/follow"), and tell it to press Enter afterward.

Has anyone tried this? a friend of mine is using it in diablo. There are several videos from games in the channel. It could be a good combination for using it with multibox.

Soooo... software that holds a key for you? I'm not sure how your post relates to this thread about WildStar macros (for which there is an in-game system)

[mike1679]

I wish to use macros with multiboxing and i am trying to understand if it works

[mike1679]

Sorry , obviously you are discussing only about in game macro system. thanks.

Ok, so some basics which will get you started. First grab mission control https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...trol-0.13a.zip. Mission Control is a very quick and easy utility to install Wildstar addons (You can also use the curse client).

Next download the Slashtarget addon http://www.curse.com/ws-addons/wilds...61-slashtarget.

Launch Mission Control, then simply drag and drop the Slashtarget addon onto Mission Control. Addon installed!

Next go into Wildstar, open up addons and you will see Slashtarget is disabled (white dot next to it). Select the Slashtarget addon then click the 'Change Load Rules' button at the bottom of the page. Check the box that says 'ignore version mismatch and load addon'. Close the window, then click the 'reloadui' button.

Now that you can target, your /follow and /assist commands will work without you having to manually select your leader.

Simply create the macro:

/tar CharacterA
/follow CharacterA
/assist CharacterA

or any variation that you desire.

Under HUD options, set Focus target to Always On, as well as Left Secondary Action Bar, and Right Secondary Action Bar.

Now you can drag you macro to the Left secondary action bar for example which is Ctrl + 1.

Pressing your Ctrl + 1 will now activate follow the leader (FTL).

On a side note, I recommend grabbing JunkIt http://www.curse.com/ws-addons/wildstar/220002-junkit and AutoRepair http://www.curse.com/ws-addons/wilds...45-auto-repair

From what I have read about macro's in Wildstar, there are limitations around casting macros, however, addons may overcome the macro limitations.

For a substantial FPS boost, set Full Screen Antialiasing to LOW.

One last useful setting is under Combat --> Targeting Options. Enable 'Move to target', 'Auto Face Target', and 'Lock to Target'.

Cheers
