Hex bugged?

[magwo]

This works:
/cast [target=focus] Lightning Bolt

This does not work:
/cast [target=focus] Hex

Instead it tries to cast Hex on your current target.

What? Is this just a bug that the spell ignores the target information, or is this some sinister scheme to nerf us multiboxers?
I reported this on the EU forums, no answers yet.

i saw a post like this a week or so ago, similar problem with a hex macro. they were able to get around it by doing something like this:

/target focus
/cast Hex
/targetlasttarget

i dunno, anyone else having issues with it? mebbe bugged?

im having the same issue

/cast [target=focus] hex does not work it only hex's my current target

[pinotnoir]

Yep it doesnt work. I will test the suggestion below to see if that works. Could this be a stealth multiboxer nerf? Hmmm.

FYI this doesnt work. Tested just now.

What does it do? I don't know how it couldn't work. Where is the break down? Does it not change your target to your focus? or does it do that and not cast? or just not go back to last target?

More people than multiboxers use focus for casting and solo shammies out there, I'm sure, need this to work.

Yeah I posted about this as well a while ago, it got locked and told to continue discussing in an unrelated thread. *shrug*

Think Fur was tired tbh.



Well, I think it's sucky it doesn't work though. :<

Hex seems to ignore focus alltogether. It just goes on your target.

Hmm, that's odd. When casting hex in that case, the current target would actually be what you casted hex on. I'll try it when euro-servers get back up (to be honest I entirely forgot about hex since I hit 80 - havent used it once!)

On my 5 box setup, i use F6-F10 to set up hex targets so that each shammy would have it's own focused target including putting a raid symbol on them so i know which ones will be targetted for hex. Once I pull the mobs, I press "h" which does the following macro:

/target focus
/cast Hex
/targetlasttarget

I used it to get to the 1st boss in heroic UT Pinnacle last night and had no issues with it. Before this post, I was about to give up on hex, as I noticed the [target=focus] didn't work for hex.

I use focus to set my main's. Everything I do is based on focus. When I tried the above macro it just does nothing when I press it. Maybe this only works if you use /assist for your group instead of setting a character as your focus.
