Ugh, Harm/Help revisited..

With my current setup I don't need the 5 buttons (4 in my case) for failover - it's automatic.

/target [target=Shaboôm, nodead]; [target=Shabôom, nodead]; [target=Shabôôm, nodead]; [target=Shàboom, nodead];
/follow

that's my failover AND follow macro. Add in the attack macros that a: just cast if it's an enemy or b: target the targets target if the current target is helpful, and it's a 1 button mash failover.

Call me a noob, but what the hell is the advantage of using all those conditionals? It always confuses me. Tell me what the difference is in a combat situation between his macro and mine:

/cast [target=focustarget] Lightning Bolt

Let's say you want to heal and lightning bolt in the same macro then you can do the following:

Code:

---

/cast [target=focustarget, harm] Lightning Bolt; [target=focustarget, help] Healing Wave; [target=player] Healing Wave

---

Now you have a single macro that will either cast Lightning Bolt if an enemy is targeted, Healing Wave on a friendly target or otherwise it will cast Healing Wave on yourself.

Not tested and I don't play shaman so I have no idea if that is a valid example. It is just for demonstrative purposes to show that conditionals allow you to do multiple things in the same macro.
