Hi, i'm playing my 4 shamans with the set of macros from here : Auto Focus, target, follow, Cast Macro ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Thread&postID=55878#post55878')
On all chars
/focus Mainchar
/follow Mainchar
then use this macro : /cast [target=focustarget,help,nodead,exists][target=focus,help,nodead,exists] Helpfull spell

BUT... when one of my chars get low life... I have to quickly target it then spam the heal button.... Unfortunately, there's a small delay between the target selection, and the focus to be set... so if I push my heal button right away without a tiny pause, my clones won't get the next target from the focused char. resulting in a 3x heal for the focused main, and only one heal to the needed char (from the main actualy).

so my question is : is there a way to improve (ie : instant target swith on macro push) the target selection.. at least for my helpfull spells
thx

make yourself some new macros that use /target shaman01 /cast heal

Use F1 - F4 or something and have a different target for each.

Whatever you do, the focus macros will always have slight delay

I suffer the same problem as you, but i've not bothered to do the above solution yet. Will probably do at the weekend. The best thing to do is get a guild mate to come heal you, tiz what i do :)

what he ^^^^^^ said

i have my F1 trough F5 key's bound to
/cast [target='name']Lesser Healing Wave (rank highest -2)

and use a party lifebar mod like GRID above which displays the char's in the correct order,
watch healthbar, press the correct Fkey, and BAM Insta Health x5
