Lag when selecting targets / using assist (-)

Because of the lag involved in the assist command, it’s virtually impossible for me to target a mob with my tank, pull it, and trigger attacks with the rest of my team without spamming the “attack” button. The pets, especially, don’t pick up the targets fast enough for that first attack command. And when I spam the attack button, I’m continually turning off the attack on my tank. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve looked down on my tank’s display to notice that I have attack turned off. No timed attacks = less damage = less agro = stooped. If anyone has any suggestions on how to make this process smoother, I’d love to hear them.
It should only be rare occasions that you need to actualy assist your main. The only time I actually use assist is for CC which I rarely use.



EQ2 will if you target your guardian with all other toons cast benificial spells on the guard and hostile actions onto the guards target automatically. This includes pet attacks.



As to your guard stopping attacking I would have to look the exact macro up tonight but I think "/autoattack 1" in the macro should leave it on, "/autoattack 0" will turn it off which I have on my group follow key.
