I don't really get jamba, it accepts group invites, declines duels and tells me the status text things but it doesn't accept quests which is mainly what I wanted from it. The only way for it to accept a quest is for me to click the quest giver on that account, then it will "auto" accept but it really doesn't make it any easier. Is there a way to make it accept a quest when I do?

Also, what do I do for looting? I could make it free-for-all and pick up everything on my master but then collection quests go all to my main and it doesn't really work :-/. Any ideas on what I should do about collection quests?

even on free for all your main should stop seeing the quest items once he has them all and the corpse will still be shiny in the slaves view. theres a new macro command for interacting with your mains target but im not very familiar with it. but it will allow you to loot and talk to quest givers with one keypress so id advise researching that a little. maybe someone else could elaborate.

You need 2 keys setup.

1. Assist - bind to an assist macro on your alts that assist your main
2. Interact - go into keybindings and set a key for Interact with target

Once this is setup you just need to select a quest giver or corpse or flight master or banker or whatever on your main, hit the Assist key and then hit the Interact key. If you select a quest giver, assist and interact then all your characters will talk to the quest giver and then Jamba will mirror the selection for you.

You need 2 keys as I don't think you can macro the Interact ability.

so the macros would be like

/assist NAME
/interact
?

No, you cannot call interact in a macro. The assist macro will be:


/assist main_name


If your assist button is "-" then you will bind this macro to the "-" key on all your alts. By default "-" is mapped to the 2nd last button on your main toolbar.

For Interact you need to go into Key Bindings inside WoW on all your accounts and search for "Interact with target" and you need to bind a key to this. For instance "=".

Once you have both keys setup properly you will able to select a target on your main, press "-" to have all your alts assist and then press "=" for everyone to interact with the target.

Ran into another batch of problems :-p

I seem to mess up accepting a quest at least once every time I get a batch, or get one less thing then is needed, etc... Is there an add-on that shows my group's quests and progress on the quests? I also have to switch to my other character to pick stuff up off the ground, is there anyway to do this without switching? I also saw someone who said something about an outlands raf questing guide that minimized collection quests. Are there any of these for 1-60?

QuestHelper will show the status of your entire group on a quest. They update the tooltip when you mouse over a mob/corpse and show how many drops each of your group members still need.

I am not aware of any way to make collection of ground spawn items easier, personally I swap mains which switches my WoW windows as well. So I collect with my main till I have all I need then I swap mains to the 2nd character and collect till completed etc.
