Help a noob Priest.

[egorgulu]

Hello!

I am trying to learn the macro scripting but I need some help to understand how it works

I've tried with several codes to make 1 macro that does: Cast Power Word: Fortitude on self, then cast Power Word: Fortitude on MAIN TOON. Can't get it to work

Im also trying to make a macro so my slave (priest) can cast smite after smite after smite until the combat is ended. Atm i got this:

/cleartarget
/assist Filofax
/stopmacro [noharm]
/castsequence smite; reset=combat/target smite, smite, smite

I copied it from a macro site but it won't seem to work

Could someone help me with this macro so I can try to understand how you haveto type it.

That's it for now

For the smite thingy:

/cleartarget
/assist Filofax
/cast Smite

That will make the priest spam Smtie until the target is dead :P

The first buffmacro you wanted help with is a tough one.
Try this(not sure it will work though):

/cast [target=party] Power Word: Fortitude

This should target someone in the party (randomly) and cast Fortitude on him. It won't be perfect, if it even work.

Good luck

sounds like you're dual-boxing.

one thing about the case sequence macro is that its illogical. you dont need a cast sequence in order to cast the same spell over and over and over. whoever made that macro probably was not thinking.

there are three common ways to help target what your main is targeting. reeally quick, here's the lowodwn on the three.

1. assist. when using assist, your slave actually switches target from targeting your main, or whatever else he is targeting, to the target your main is targeting.
your macro would work with a cash sequence, and Golle's macro would work as well.

2. focus. if you make a macro, or just type /focus when your slave is targeting your main, you will have a focus for the rest of the time logged in. using "target=focustarget" will alwyas target whatever you main is targeting, that's IF your main is the focus.

3. targettarget. this is basically part of the macro that says, target my target's target and cast whatever spell is in this macro. this requres that your slaves always target your main, after looting, after combat, after dialogs with npcs, etc. slaves will lose the main as a target all the time, so having a macro that will target the main, plus follow the main, is essential to this setup.

as for the PW:Fort buff, i'd like to add another thing to it to make it target yourself:
/cast [mod:alt, target=player] [target=party] Power Word: Fortitude
