For those using the Focusless/Targetless Leader System and who struggled to get it to work here's how I got it done. Your mileage may vary...

Change your follow macro to:

• /focus <insert your ctrl/shift/alt sequence for each char>
• /follow focus
• /clearfocus

Follow will now work regardless of whether or not you are in a vehicle.

Next if you don't already have one, make a new macro/key bind to assist current leader (don't forget to make a new keymap if you aren't using the same key for both master and slaves)

• /assist <insert your ctrl/shift/alt sequence for each char>

Now, my assumption is that you already have possession bars setup on all your alts, if not you'll need to do that to use the vehicles/mounts abilities.

In my setup I use jamba and keyclone and a strict do-not-pass list, so I use Ctrl-1, Ctrl-2, etc to invoke the vehicle/mount capabilities and bypass the existing keymaps. You will need to adjust for your setup.

When I do Aces High!:

1. Everyone gets quest
2. Everyone gets mount (one at a time, I noticed that if I did them at the same time 2 chars don't get a mount)
3. Everyone jumps into the air
4. Hit follow macro key
5. Target first drake
6. Hit Assist macro key
7. Ctrl-1 x 5
8. Ctrl-2 x 1
9. Repeat step 7 & 8 once
10. Dead drake
11. Repeat for 4 more drakes

I have a 5 man team, if you have fewer you may need to throw in a Ctrl-5 (shield) if the drake lives long enough for its special attack.

If you are unfamiliar with the Focusless/Targetless Leader System you can find info on these forums and on the wiki .

Great news ! Too bad Eu servers are down now or I would give it a go.

And this made me laugh :

I had to express my feelings into sound for this change.[/url]

This is an EPIC change, very, very, very cool, Blizzard!

And such a nice switch, reading positive comments - I just peaked over on the WoW forums, my god, just when you think it could'nt get worse!

Quick question, I can't log on tonight, does this also make it possible to use follow when you're doing those quests when you ride on a giant? Like the Sons of Hodir quests?

If so, I will be very, very pleased.
