    Post [WoW] Toggle off follow with ISBoxer?

    Hi folks,

    Just getting started with ISBoxer, amazing piece of software! I have been happily levelling my 4 team. I do however have one problem:

    My team is made up of:

    1 x Warrior Tank
    1 x Elemental Shamen
    1 x Mage
    1 x Holy Priest

    I am using FTL DPS keys with my priest healing using repeater region/Healbot. My FTL DPS keys are set-up to Action Target Groups for whom I want to DPS etc.

    When I attack, I hit '1' on my warrior, this charges him into combat it also initiates the first action my DPS is going to do however the problem I have is the team continue to follow him breaking their casting (as both dps are ranged). Is there a way I can have the party immediately stop following my tank using ISBoxer or alternatively do I need to do this in a macro inside WoW. I tried /follow NULL at the start of the '1' button for my party in a macro but didn't seem to work.

    Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

    it is not possible to break follow apart from moving a bit. You can't macro it.
    Basically what people often do is hit their 'formation' key for a split second, to break the follow on the slaves.

    a formation key is basically a keybind that moves all your toons in a specific position. some do a line, others a V, others a star etc.

    Instead of having all of your team press 1 with the Warrior, make them press a movement key while the Warrior charges. You can do this by changing which window 1 gets sent to and adding an action for all other windows or an ATG. Instant follow break every time you charge.

    Thats a nice solution Fenril. I will create a map for that when I create my Tank.

    I'd set up independent slave movement keys.

    The charge mapped key is a great idea, but you'll eventually want the ability to have your toons move out of puddles of acid/fire etc.

    I do that already with the Up Down Left Right keys. Works best.
    My formation button is Ctrl + S. Which I think is the best key bind for star formation.
