switching Masters...

[hellsown]

hello, guys., i am having figuring out how to switch masters, mid combat.....if my main dies..its always a wipe....i am currently using..

/cast [nomod,target=target] lightning bolt;[mod:alt,target=srussx] Lesser Healing Wave;[mod:ctrl,target=targettarget] Lightning Bolt

/target [target=srussx, nodead, help, exists]; [target=srussa, nodead, help, exists]; [target=srussb, nodead, help, exists]; [target=srussc, exists]
/follow

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

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)

Another option is to use party1 for targeting. If your main dies, press a button (ok, one of 5 buttons) to switch party leader and continue.
