PvP Healing

i've been using click bars for healing..but i find it to be slow in pvp and ive been seeing a lot of multi boxers in pvp with their heals in their rotation? i know it some kind of focus target then targetoftarget?? but not sure how to setup/create?

I'm 5 boxing. thanks in advance.

Well, there are a multiple ways you could choose to set something like that up, and it's really all down to preference.

What I think you are talking about is having your healing macros look something like:

Code:

---

/cast [target=focus,exists] Healing Surge
/cast [target=targettarget] Chain Heal

---

This would mean that while you have a focus target, you cast Healing Surge on the focus. If the focus does not exist, that line is ignored and it defaults to spamming Chain Heal on your TargetofTarget. This is a simple example, and you'd need to mix and match different spells and castsequences in the first tier of the macros to get the results you'd want.

This of course means you need a way to set and drop focus on your toons, but that's easy enough to do with something like Clique.

Atleast that's I have chosen to create a setup similar to what you are talking about. I have my healers throwing out a mixture of AOE and targetoftarget heals by default as their DPS Rotation that gets triggered by the same keys as my DPS/AOE/Burst, etc. Then I use virtualization actions to toggle the healers in to different "healing modes", so that the rotation becomes Slow PVE Healing, Panic Healing, Fast PVE Healing, and so on. Each rotation has those [Target=focus,exists] conditional lines in the macros, so that I have an easy way of setting a healing target. Additionally I do utilize click healing through a repeater region for quick spam heals as well, when I don't want to rely on the rotations.

great, i'm going to try and add those macros into their rotations and play around with it. Is clique the only way to drop focus? is there a way i can change focus automatically when i switch to a different window?

@Dominicano:
You can setup ISBoxer to execute a mapped key when you focus a window. Click on the team, then on each character slot--There's a checkbox. Have it send a /clearfocus macro.

I intend to do a short video of my setup this weekend to asplain what I'm doing--It uses this , but it's a bit more in depth.

thanks Mosg2, i would definitely be interested in watching your video. i watched your stream the other day and liked how you had your setup.

I would not recommend mouseovers for healing outside of just starting out or raid healing.

For party based heals where time is critical across all 5 you should use something like this:

That way your heals are immediate on the target and no fussing around with the mouse cursor during a heated battle. I found this necessary in PvP.

Basically my Naga 7-12 heal party with the remaining '8' key being my roaming mouseover / target / help or harm macro.

Then I mod Naga 7-12 to do other things like trinket, dispel, focus windows, etc. I drive 100% from healer so this was a good change for me. Though if you drive from the tank and use a healer like MW it should work just fine for you too.
