Its a bit embarrasing - but I got beaten by Chromaggus in BWL :-/ I never knew, but it seems that if a toon get all the different debuffs at the same time, he/she/it will turn into a dragonkin and help Chromaggus. I've killed him 2 times without noticing this, but the last 2 times my poor toons have turned into dragonkin.

So, is it possible to make a macro that cycles thorugh all party members and cast dispel/remove curse on each?

You can use /targetparty to cycle through your party members, however, that's going to be random and doesn't include "player".

You can try the old click sequence using 0 instead (http://www.dual-boxing.com/showthread.php?t=45408).

Or, if you use ISBoxer, perhaps try using VideoFX with Decursive as the feed.

So something like this?



/castsequence [@player] Dispel Magic,0,0,0,0
/castsequence [@party1] 0,Dispel Magic,0,0,0
/castsequence [@party2] 0,0,Dispel Magic,0,0
/castsequence [@party3] 0,0,0,Dispel Magic,0
/castsequence [@party4] 0,0,0,0,Dispel Magic

youre using isboxer ... you could make a round robin target macro for this pretty easily in your multiplexer.

I think you might be over estimating my IsBoxer skills - but I will try it when i get home from work.

I only ever 5-box, so have made two sets of five mapped keys for situations similar to this.

They are essentially FTL Target Me and FTL Assist Me, with the target changed to a specific Slot instead of the entire team.



Set One: Slot Target Me.
- No Hotkey
- Target: Character in Slot 1 (five of these, with Slot 2, Slot 3, Slot 4 and Slot 5 as the only difference for each version).
- Key Combination \
- Display As (in Step) "Target Me"
- Macro Command "/targetexact {FTL}"

Set Two: Slot Assist Me.
- No Hotkey.
- Target: Character in Slot 1
- Key Combination: F
- Display As (in Step) "Assist Me"
- Macro Command "/assist {FTL}"



With these, if I want my healer to cycle through the team...
I know that my healer is in Slot 3.

So I will have a mapped key with five steps.
Each step will have a specific character doing the action.
--Step 1--
- Slot 1 Toon > Do Mapped Key > Slot 3 Target Me
- Send -Hotkey- to Target: Slot 3.
--Step 2--
- Slot 2 Toon > Do Mapped Key > Slot 3 Target Me
- Send -Hotkey- to Target: Slot 3.

You can have a specific toon cycle through the party.
Whether they are periodically placing a HOT spell on each party member, or casting a Dispel.



You could use Slot X assist me, for setting crowd control.
Target an undead mob, have the Priest character (in Slot X) assist you.
Target an animal mob, have the Mage character (in Slot Y) assist you.
Target a demon mob, have the Warlock character (in Slot Z) assist you.
Press a button to have CC toons Focus their targets.
Have another button where a toon will CC their Focus, if they have a focus.

Tried this:


/castsequence [@player] Dispel Magic,0,0,0,0
/castsequence [@party1] 0,Dispel Magic,0,0,0
/castsequence [@party2] 0,0,Dispel Magic,0,0
/castsequence [@party3] 0,0,0,Dispel Magic,0
/castsequence [@party4] 0,0,0,0,Dispel Magic
And it works perfectly :-)
