Facing Target

[palvarik]

Ok when you get fear bombed or conflagged (like in headles horseman) how are you getting your slaves to turn to face the target.


I have been using the JC focusing lens but was wondering if there is a macro that can be set up.

I read once about interact with target but cannot seem to find that thread.

Thanks for the help

On all of the slaves (main too, if you can stand it), enable (in interface - mouse options) "click to move".

Also have a hotkey (in keybinds) for "interact with target".

Interact range is 4x or 5x further away then follow range.
The default option for a hostile target is to run towards it and melee it to death.

Ideally, you wait until your group is in casting range.
And then press down arrow, which breaks the movement.

Now you're spread out, for reduced AoE vulnerability.
And are facing the target on each toon.

Sage's Lightning Rod still works ^^

I don't know how you have your group set up as far as keybindings, but here's what I do.

"Q" is my autofollow macro hotkey. All of my "boxed" toons have the arrow keys activated for movement. All I do if we get fear bombed or in the case of HH is quickly hit "Q" to get them to face what their focus is targeting, then hit the back Arrow button which stops them. Now their all facing the target again.

Yep, by default I just whack my follow key until they're all in range again, then a quick tap of the down arrow key (which simply makes them all take one step backwards in my setup).

If they've been scattered so far that they're out of follow mode then interact with target (with click-to-move enabled, as noted above) will do the trick - it has a much longer range than follow does.

At HH, a "strafe everybody" key will save you some healing too, unless you have your guys spread out anyway.
