Hello all,
Its been a while since i posted and i think ive looked through everything that i can in order to find this answer. What i am trying to do is to set my priest to heal my entire group while doing instances. Now what i have been doing since i am only tri-boxxing is i have him set up to heal a specific party member based on the 3 modifiers. Alt he targets party 0, shift he targets party 1 , and ctrl he targets party 2. ... this saved on some button real estate since i could do that all with 1 button no problem. Now. how in the heck can i do that for the last two people? i had hoped myabe i could combine modifiers to use say alt+ctrl , and ctrl+shift.... but i cant seem to find the right syntax or any referance to combining modifiers except that using two modifiers will result in the ability to use EITHER of those modifiers....
SO , if i cannot use two modifiers at once... can anyone suggest to me a way to handle the last 2 positions healing (the real people! ) without sacrificing 3 buttons for party 3, and 3 buttons for party 4?
as a side example of how i am running things, i have all of my basic keys 1-= transfer normally. i have not been using keymaps. I use 4 sets of 9 keys (all iterations of the numpad with alt ctrl and Alt+ctrl) for the micro-managing. otherwise its all spam and castseq using target=targettarget with one big follow the leader button (thx nofocus manifesto) i dont use keymaps because they still hurt my brain in an unpleasant way. everytime i think i understand i try it and it doesnt do what i want i to ... heh
oh and my current groups are either dk/priest/mage or hunter/priest/mage and my babies are 3x shammies. The shammies i have less difficulties healing than i do with the priest and group. maybe its because they dont have as many buttons yet i dont know.
sorry for asking if theres something i missed elsewhere that would have answered this but i searched for a while and read and re-read a few threads. theres just so much info but it doesnt seem to quite cover this question.
