My 2 ISBoxer 2 Step Macro and Setup

[Fortis]

Can you dynamically switch the characters in the ATGs? For example if I switch talents for one Schamie from elemental to resto and push him from the elemntal ATG to the Resto ATG, will he stop doing elemental 'stuff'? Or are the macros prebuild upfront?

The macros are build when you push, Isboxer (Export all to isboxer)
I presume your asking based on dual spec. then all you need to do
is start isboxer switch the character From one ATG group to the other ATG group make sure the character set is selected to push the new info to and do Export all to isboxer. then just do reload UI ingame and you should be all set.

Took longer to explain than it does to impliment (the longest part of the wait time is the Reload ui.

Unless Lax or someone else knows of another metheod if so I would be more than happy to impliment it.

You can use a mapped key to add or remove a toon from an Action Target Group.
New Target Group Action
Then set:
- Target
- Action Target Group
- And choose Join or Leave

I've used this in the past with dual-talent characters.
My initial PvE group would sometimes go:
1x Prot Paladin
1x Resto Shaman
3x Elemental Shaman

And at other times go:
1x Prot Paladin
4x Elemental Shaman

When my dual-spec shammy was Elemental, my hotkey would remove the other three from the ATG which received the Repeater Region heal clicks.
And when they were all Elemental, it would add the other three, so all four would do the healing.




Neat idea on the ATG's.
And dynamically changing them even in combat.
So a toon can change roles on the fly.

The big macro exists for all the toons.
And basically says, if you're an Elemental Shaman do this in this order.
IE, a castsequence.

The Resto Shaman will ignore that, since they're not a part of the Elemental Shaman ATG.
But if you were to add them to that group...

Cannot change specs in combat.
But you could easily add a hybrid or two, to the Healing Group, if the main healer went down.
Or similarly, if you need no heals for trash, add the Healer to the DPS group.
If you get a chance outside of combat, you could do a gear/spec swap too.

Thanks for the info. What i had initially wrong, was that I had all schamans in the elemantal group. You have to put your dual spec restoration schamie in the restoration group too (so he starts being in the elemental and restoration group). Otherwise the restoration macros dont get created.
I also made another group "RestoDPS", which lets my Resto cast LightningBolt on occasion. When the shit hits the fan and he has to heal alot, I pull him out of the group and he can concentrate on healing alone.

hmm yes for intial Macro creation, but think you will need to remove them from one of the ATG's once the intial macro creation is over, or the dual spec may try to cast both Castseqences and may cause a conflict. this is where Ualaas advice comes in with the hotkey to move forjoin/leave ATG's will come in.

I plan on tinkering with this over the weekend if I have time.
