Jamba Follow

Thank you for the responses. i primarily am trying to reduce my input overheads and distractions.

Khatovar - I use a Razer Naga Epic mouse in conjuction with a Logitech G13. I use bartender addon to visually (only) map my keys, so using any kind of bar swapping will not work with my current setup. Thank you for the tips on the Jamba / commands. i could try to write some kind of code to change how the strobe works in the two different situations. But would need some in depth research first.

Traedoril - I tried it but simply it doesnt work. i had tried many different ways around this include bandageing target macros and the like. thanks regardless.

Ualaa - After reading many of your post over the years i am honored to read one from you replying to my post. In the early days i did not use a stobe either. I actually didnt use Jamba at all. After i discovered the addon it of course made so much help. I used to box 5 UH DKs and pally heals then also. it just seemed that i would loose a toon far too regularly. Playing from Australia i suffer a high latency. targeting with my main and getting the wayward DK back to the group was very time consuming and annoying. i would have to wait for replication to the alt before i got results. Strobe does two things for me. 1. negates my latency issues 2. Takes one less thing off the list to think about.

re targeting a dead corpse + AU latency is not quick enough to stop the toon from tearing away from the group and running off cliffs etc. (its happened to all of us lolz)

From my tests so far the simplest solution seems to be working best. The original solution tailored with Ualaa advice.

IWT spam (all dps ability's) + broadcast movement keys. basically i turn strobe off when approaching combat. send my troop into battle, sending IWT commands with all DPS moves, then swooping in with my pally and picking the DKs back up on the strobe after the battle. I am trialing both a dedicated movement broadcast key, cast only when they bug and/or including a movement key broadcast into a dps rotation key bind. the former seems most effective thus far.

Unless JAMBA updates the addon to support different predefined strobe groups or Blizz lets us IWT with friendlies i think this is what i will be doing.

Thank you all agian for your advice. will update if i have future success or failure.
