Good day everybody! I am having some healing issues. I use ISboxer and Jamba.

Right now, I have my paladin healer in my 5 man group attacking with my melee and using his holy power for light of dawn. He does that without any effort on my part. For bosses, I have a button that toggles off all key maps for slot 5, which is my healer slot. It's supposed to make it so when I hit follow to face my hunter, or spam my DPS, my healer does nothing and I heal with him via grid and clique.

It worked for awhile, but recently it completely stopped working. I get the popup message that it is activated, but it does nothing to slot 5. I have remade the toggle, etc. my healers heals are constantly interrupted. I tried putting him in his own action group, and that bad some success. Anyway, what do you guys do to stop healer from interrupting? Thanks in advance :)

Chivalrous, on mine I use a melee group that has IWT in it. My healer I do mouse over heals on and drive from him or my tank with windows mirroring. Basically my "Z" key is a 2-step that has no keys programmed on my paladin so he just stands around until I need a heal. I have also ran him where his entire routine was IWT and crusader strikes for HP generation. But it lead to deaths.

Can you share wiht us how many you are boxing and what set up (tank, 3 DPS, and pally healer) that way some of the old hands can give you some better advice.

heck yeah! I 5 box PVE only with a Guardian Tank, Fury Warrior, Survival Hunter, Enhancment Shaman, and Holy Paladin. The team is working great and i have them setup doing good DPS. The Paladin has a macro to keep Sacred Shield up on my tank, judge targets, and crusader strike just to build HP and he Light of Dawns to spend it for just questing and such. On bosses in dungeons i turn this off, and use clique and grid to have him full time heals, no running up and attacking and such. However, recently my button that turns him off just isn't working.

I'm having another annoying issue when i mousewheel up or down my windows has a system noise that DINGS, its sooo annoying, but what is strange is it only does it when Innerspace is running (I'm assuming it has something to do with innerspace forcing it into windowed fullscreen mode or something.) I haven't really been able to box much since i built this new computer because i've spent so much time trying to iron out my problems... Its getting kinda annoying! Also, innerspace is KILLING my FPS. I like to load innerspace up even when i'm raiding on one toon because i like to have a DXnothing window and use some of my macros i have inside isboxer, but the fps drops considerably. Without innerspace i run around 90 to 100 in stormwind (just 1 wow up) and even with just 1 wow up + innerspace it runs about 20 and choppy. :(

Moving to the software forum since this seems to be asking what's wrong with your setup, not how to heal. Post your config (http://isboxer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=13).

Thanks.. Was asking really how everybody else did it, so I could get more ideas. Thanks though. I got my config to work, it just doesn't always work and is clunky.

donno if u have a resto druid but can technically work with any type of healer just run with a 2step and use addon cliques with all cast sequence macros, When you click on a target it sets to your focus, and all your healing macros are set to only cast when a focus is enabled. The heal 2step is in the same 2step as the dps 2step. It just doesnt do anything until you actually click on a target and set as focus.

Check out my vid and see what you think.

Thanks Invisa! This is a much better solution than mine :)
