I'm at work and thinking about an emergency sheeping from a bad pull.

Example, I made a very bad pull and none of my mages have a focus on a mob.

Currently, in this type of situation, I have to click on each mob, set the focus for a mage then sheep, and do this for all 3 of my mages while I'm getting pounded on.

What do you think about this?

Mage1
/targetenemy
/cast [target=harm,nodead,exists] Polymorph

Mage2
/targetenemy
/targetenemy
/cast [target=harm,nodead,exists] Polymorph

Mage3
/targetenemy
/targetenemy
/targetenemy
/cast [target=harm,nodead,exists] Polymorph

I'm using /targetenemy which is like pressing tab and it'll cycle through the mobs.

This would in theory get 3 of the mobs sheeped, with a possibility of getting a nearby group of mobs (which is bad).

I'm thinking this as my "oh crap, we're going to wipe" and just doing a Russian roulette to try to get a handle of it.

What do you guys think? At work so I can't test this out.

only thing to keep in mind is that /targetenemy works just like hiting the tab key. So you have to be facing the right way and it can target any mob in a cone in front of you. and if you are potentially within casting range of a mob that hasnt agroed you it may sheep a random nearby target and cause a severe wipe.

It's an interesting idea for when things are truly out-of-hand, but my personal emergency exit is frost nova, back-step, click, click, click, sheep :)

Mage 1: Target enemy, Sheep
Mage 2: Target Mage1 Target, Target Enemy, Sheep
Mage 3: Target Mage1 Target, Target Enemy, Target Enemy, Sheep

Other than that, looks good to me.

Mage 3: Target Mage1 Target, Target Enemy, Target Enemy, Sheep

If this is all in one button, lag will most likely cause this to not work properly.
