Useful multi-boxing macros

Running in a party? You'd want to castsequence with party1/party2/party3 etc as targets. Going to experiment and see what works best.

>Is there a buff macro out there?

This is perhaps unhelpful since this is a macro thread, but I use the SmartBuff mod for that.

You define, per-character, what buffs they'll be putting on which classes - which is a useful way to spread the buffing load.

Bind a key to the "do smartbuff" action (it appears as a new option in the standard key binding dialogue) and just bash it randomly from time-to-time to get the buffs done. I use keyboard broadcasting, so when I hit the buff button on my keyboard, all clients start buffing.

Just keep mashing it until all clients report that no more buffs are needed.

You can set up all sorts of additional options (such as having it refresh buffs when they get to a certain remaining time), and with a bit of fiddling about it's entirely possible to get all those buffs completely off the shortcut bars :)

Hey all,
Looking for a marco to apply mana oils to all my toons with one key can it be done? Thanks

Is there a mage sheep macro that does this?

1. If there is no previous focus(dead or doesn't exist), make current target the focus and sheep it.

2. If there is a previous focus, sheep it.

/focus [target=focus, noexists] [target=focus, dead] [target=focus, help]
/stopmacro [target=focus, noexists]
/cast [target=focus] Polymorph

"This uses macro options which are covered in Part II. The first line sets your focus to your current target if a) you don't already have a focus, b) your current focus is dead, or c) your current focus is friendly. If you aren't targeting anything, it will clear your focus. The second line keeps the macro from proceeding if you don't have a focus. Finally, it casts Polymorph on your focus. This gives you a one-button solution for your crowd control with focus. "

im a focus newb but this one seems good

I believe semi-colons are required to make multiple options work. I can't be sure, but I do know that there's been at least 1 bug that required a semi-colon at the end of any /castsequence lines for macros to work, so rather use too many than too few.

While I personally prefere "/cast [target=party1target] Polymorph" (party1 being my main) the above should do what was requested.

Easiest way, unless you want an addon, is to set up a "/castsequence [target=party1target] <buff1>, <buff2>," etc. - then you just gotta switch the target of your party1 whenever you reach the end of the cycle.

Mind you, if you're doing a single mana-heavy buff on 1 char and multiple low-costs on others, you'd be better off with a bunch of /casts as resetting is a bit tricky, and without resetting you'd be running out of mana faster than a healadin standing next to a mana-burning raid boss.

Great, will try it out tonight thx:)

My latest follow macro for my ALTs:

/cleartarget
/target <main character>
/focus
/follow
/stopmacro [nomodifier:ctrl,nodead]
/target <secondary character>
/focus
/follow
/stopmacro [nodead]
/target <secondary character 2>
/focus
/follow

The ALT follows the main unless the main is dead or the ctrl key is held down, in which case the ALT follows a <secondary character>, unless he too is dead, in which case the ALT follows <secondary character 2>.

I set focus on whoever is being followed as most all my spells are macros that do /assist focus for targeting.

[code:1]/use mana oil
/use 16[/code:1]
What this does is say use Mana Oil, then use Equipped Item # 16, which should be the main hand weapon. I use something similar for my rogue's poisons.

Hehe I had the same problem and it was driving me mad; until I realized that it is actually the very nature of the wand "autoshot". You cannot for some reason autoshoot (with a wand anyway) the target of a focus more than once.

I got arround this by doing

/assist focus
/cast [harm] shoot;

for some reason for the wand autoshot to work the target must be [harm]

all my other spells of coure are /cast [target=focustarget,harm] <spell>;
