Meh.
Thanks for the input so far.
What I'm currently using for macros are:
/assist [target=Char1, nodead][target=Char2, nodead] ect. macro to get all five of my team on the same target. So far this has been the most dependable way I have tried for targeting.
To get the team to follow, but not lose its target in a fight I use:
/target [target=Char1, nodead][target=Char2, nodead] ect.
/follow
/targetlastenemy
For my attack spells I use a similar set up in front of the /cast spell name.
Example:
/target [target=Char1, nodead]
/assist
/cast lightning bolt.
All of these work fine for pve and pvp in most situations for me, and I have a second set of focus macros that I can use to change leaders, when no one is dead, to mix stuff up a bit, but this requires me to manually switch around my buttons, or create more hot keys....
What I'm looking for is a "best of both worlds" kind of macro. The targeting dependability of /assist, and ability to go down the line of surviving characters, to last man standing, but also the ability to change the leader, and screen focus, with out the current leader being dead. I need this item collection quests (just so slow to mouse to a new window to start picking up the drops on the next character in line), situations where I need to skin lots of mobs (same reason), and for "fake outs" to mix up the leader and mess up pvp enemies who get wise as to the current main, and try to shut me down by focus firing him first.
Finally the most important reason is that my 5 box is more then just 5 characters, I have currently 15 different 70's I can mix and match, so leader switching quickly with one master set of macro buttons would be a godsend. Maby what I am looking for is not even possible, but I am allways open to new and better methods, and as our community grows, its all most assured that some of you have come up with a much better system then I am currently using.
