Quite possible, but at the same time, there's no way to figure out whether
[target=party2] is the same as [target=player].

Targeting people in raid environments is even worse, which is why I opted for my "heal friendly target that the /focus or party leader is looking at first!"

I just realized that you can remove the "help" from your party1 condition, Vyn. If the person is in your party or it's you, he's friendly.

That is, unless you're worried about Mind Control, but in that case you typically don't have the ability to choose which spells to cast.

EDIT: also, it may be possible to combine the macros using modifiers, but I think you'd have to include a modifier clause in each conditional which may or may not be your cup of tea.

Nevermind the comment that was here previously. Reading comprehension FTW.

Thanks for the feedback Vyndree.

I see your point.

On my macros, I just make sure to watch the cast bars and if pushback is happening (or nothing is happening), I tap the key again and get another going. I also can tap with a delay if my heal target is taking a lot/consistent damage.

I'm new to this so, I'll probably come to your macros after I realize you have the right idea :)

What if the target of the heal is MC'ed? ;) I'd just rather not have my macro stuck on a conditional. "help" as a conditional means "can you cast helpful spells on this target" -- and since the purpose of the macro is to cast a helpful spell on a target, I find it useful. Besides, my healing macro's aren't the ones that are running close to the 255 character limit anyway.

I'm thorough by nature. My real job is a software tester.

I forgot about the other Shamans healing the target. >.<

It's a good thing I have this site, seriously.

What about for the 5th shaman, I may be too tired reading this haha but what would the macros be for the shaman E going by Vyns?
