Hey,
Anyway of doing this? I want my alt to target my mains focus. My alt's focus is my main.

Does target=focusfocus work?

If not would
/target focus
/cast [target=targetfocus] <spell>
work?

I love having my alt's focus set to my main but am wanting to fear, seduce or sheep a particular mob over and over.

Thanks in advance.

Pretty sure focus and mouseover are for you only. You can't find out another person's mouseover or focus, so focusfocus/targetfocus/targetmouseover/etc won't work.

fiddles and sticks... anyone know for sure? I am 90% sure that kadaan's "pretty sure" is 100% accurate but I can't do the math right now to figure out how accurate it makes it.

If no one knows for sure I guess I will check it out tonight.

/target focustarget will target whatever your focus is targetting.

focus focus wont work since focus is stored per client.

targettargettargettarget works since the script just jumps from one target to the next.

You must have misunderstood the question.... I don't want to target my focus's target... I want to target my focus's focus. Thanks anyway... think I'll have to find some workaround.

Yeah, I'm not sure that you can do that. You can only target your focus's focus if he happens to be targetting it currently.

Ya I tried to do that on my pally 5 man group.

However I did find it useful to use the target focustargettarget macro so that my healer will focus on me and then target my target (mob) then target the (mobs) target and heal that player.

Helps when one of my warlocks pulls agro and this way I get the heal to the correct group member :}

You could use your alt's target to set CC since they wont change target when you use target=focustarget in spells.

However there is one problem with this that I yet to have to find a workaround. If you play some toon that uses castsequences and reset=target you will have problems resetting your sequence (e.g locks and dots)

Only way I have found to reset your sequences to use /Assist focus in that macro. This will reset your sequence on targetchange, but it will screw up your cc macros.
