CC'ing multiple targets.

[Blackychan542]

I started multiboxing yesterday and my 5 hunters recently hit 30, however I was wondering if it is possible to set up a macro (in jamba, or in game) for each of my hunters to hunters mark/scatter shot different targets instead of my masters target without having to add an extra 10 binds just for separate CC.

Jamba has Jamba-target (http://www.dual-boxing.com/threads/16181-Jamba-Target-Documentation?p=148042#post148042) which I haven't used since the original incarnation, so I'm not sure what changes have been made with the new release, but it uses /targetexact instead of focus.

I use focus for CC. Here's a few threads on setting that up.

Haven't messed around with it but with IsBoxer from a single keybind you could send tab keystroke to player1, tab tab to player2, tab tab tab to player3, shift-tab to player4, etc. That would in theory at least split up who your slaves are targeting.

As with Khat I use focus for CC but I only PvE so I have more time for it.

On my Pally/4x DK team, my Strangulate is set up like this.

I use the Gladius frame to target.
On press 1, DKs 1 and 3 focus that target.
On press 2, DKs 2 and 4 focus that target.

The Strangulate has DKs 1 and 2 cast at focus, on press 1.
And DKs 3 and 4 cast at focus, on press 2.
There's no guarantee they'll be facing their respective targets... but if they are I get two different targets Strangulated and a second use at those same two targets (either later, or right after they trinket).



The biggest trick is going to be setting targets.
If you're not in Arena, you probably don't have a raid frame for opponents.

You can use the addon Battle Ground Targets.
This shows the name and class (class colors too), of everyone on the other side.
It also shows their health, if they're in range.
You can click on their bar to target them.

You could set up a Round-Robin effect to set focus.
And then cast at focus.
Or alternatively, if your effect is a ground target... then scatter where they'll be or broadcast to where they are now.

Thanks for the replies everyone, I ended up setting up a round robin for all my CC :)
