ok first i use ISboxer really neat program. 2nd im using good dps macros my lvl 80s are pulling around 6k dps on boss fights in instances. now Wrath instances where pretty simple to do aoe tank and just burn each target down at a time. my group consists of
Warrior tank
Ret pally
Warlock
Mage

Now im in cata i have CC macros made to cc focused targets and thats going pretty smooth my one issue is in cata lots of mechanics are involved. Needing lots of moving around out of ground aoe. my question is how are most of u boxers handling this are u keeping the ranged dps in melee range and just moving your whole group as needed? its kinda annoying to have my ranged dps up so close taking an needed damage. since im not playing a healer im picking ones up in the random que.

So my biggest question i think is if you are playing tank and ranged dps what do u do with them spread them out? if so how do u move them fast?

also any tips on how to get placed aoe spells to work from my tanks window

global strafe key... that is all


also mouse repeater is what you're looking for :) dont have time to go into detail but that should give you something to search for :) check the isboxer forums, i believe theres a guide for it there

Kk I can figure out the mouse repeater fields cause I set up the healbot guide here. But with the ranged u leave them all @ ranged the just strafe ,or do the stay on the tank. Cause I have issues with them always following the tank even in combat. But I think that's a strobing option in jamba. Never thot of just strafeing cause that will still leave them facing the target. Ill tey that

For pve movement I've set up the following keymaps:

1. Modifier + wasd - moves the team apart from the tank in the respective directions.
2. Keybind for moving slave 1 to the left, 2 to the right, 3 forward for quick spreading in aoe damage situations.
3. IWT + move backwards to face ranged toons towards the tanks target.
4. Follow tank.

I start every pull with parking my dpsers and healer and collecting them at the end of it. I found that it helps loads not to use modifiers for movement keys whenever possible, makes movement easier while dpsing and healing but i guess that depends on how you've set up your binds.
