This should probably go into the newbie help section it will probably get moved, but oh well for now.

Are you using PiP? Are you switching to different macros on your "next in line toon?" As that macro is written if all your slaves are trying to use it, they will stand there switching targets and possibly hit something that is attacking them. Your next in line toon would have to have a different set of instructions otherwise he's trying to target himself and then target his own target after trying to target your main and finding him dead.

With out more info this is what I'm assuming, I apologize if I'm way off. Maybe you can let us know what's happening when your main dies and what you're doing to change leader ect.. and we can help a little more.

Edited for bad early am grammar. (somewhat)

repost from switching Masters... ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Thread&postID=133828#post133828:')
one (quite complex) solution could be using the ftl approach (if you are using keyclone)
for this see: http://www.dual-boxing.com/wiki/index.php/Focusless_Targetless_Leaderless_Setup ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/../wiki/index.php/Focusless_Targetless_Leaderless_Setup')

another approach would be (if you are using a tool to get macros above 255 chars), using a assist/cast-macro like:



/assist [target=ToonA,nodead][target=ToonB,nodead][target=ToonC,nodead][target=ToonD,nodead][target=ToonE,nodead]
/cast Lightning Bolt


The last approach would be using the focus to define which is aour master and bind keys to switch your focus to another toon in combination with:


/cast [target=focus-target,harm,nodead] Lightning Bolt

in combination with jamba, you could use zanthors approach (which looks realy great and much simpler than the ftl)
