following main, via focus, when whole party is dead

[cherzra]

Hi guys,

Multiboxing has inspired me to renew my WoW subscription after not having played for some months. This site has been very helpful!

My problem: when all my characters are dead, and I want to run them back to the corpses, I can't get them to follow properly.

My macro to set focus:
/focus [target=cherzrd,nodead][target=cherzrb,nodead][target=cherzrc,nodead][target=cherzre,nodead][target=cherzrc,nodead][target=cherzrd,exists][target=player]
/target focus

So normally speaking cherzrd is my leader.

My macro to follow
/follow focus

This works perfectly, except when all my characters are dead at the spirit healer. The follow macro then gives me the message "unknown unit."

If I do a manual /follow cherzrd, it works fine, but I'd prefer not to have another macro and hotkey in use for this scenario. Is there a way to follow cherzrd if "/follow focus" fails due to all focuses being dead? In one macro?

I hope that made some sense... and thank you!

/focus [target=cherzrd,nodead][target=cherzrb,nodead][target=cherzrc,nodead][target=cherzre,nodead][target=cherzrc,nodead][target=cherzrd,exists][target=cherzrd]
/target focus

Try that, I think that should work

Thanks. I tried deleting the thread before someone responded but failed at that too. I should have gone to bed :)

I got it to work, but only after I restarted all my WoWs. Maybe my assist macro, which I'm wresting with as well, messed it up. Thanks a lot!
