Jamba and macros

[Cyphoner]

I am having really big trouble to make macros via jamba..

I read the blog by Khatovar about guild ding and decided to try the tauren starting area out(huge success btw).

But i can't for the love of my seem to get macro via jamba to work, which would make my guild leveling runs even faster and smoother if it did!

So this is the steps i take:

1) /jamba
2) Menu: Macros
3) Menu: Macro:Variables
4) Add - Guildding
5) Menu: Macro:Macros
6) Add - Arcaneshot - /assist öone /cast arcane shot(yes i do have enter, just easier to type it this way)
7) Add - steadyshot - /assist öone /cast steady shot(yes i do have enter..)
8) Set macro key on arcane shot to E and steady shot to 1
9) Push settings for all modules
10) Here is what i hoped to profit, but nothing happends, not a damn thing..

What am i doing wrong here?

This can't get any worse?

While grinding i get to listen to Haddaway - What is love

Really puts one in a grinding mood, yes?

I didn't use Jamba macros, so I don't know how to setup/troubleshoot them, but I'd suggest reading through the Jamba Macro thread. I just used a manual assist since I was rerolling the team every 5 minutes and the only thing I needed them to actually assist on was interacting for quest pickups and turn-ins.

Did you actually find undead start area the best?

I find myself having trouble targeting npcs to turn in / pick up qs quite often since they are rather packed there, compared to tauren.
Only downside i find with tauren is that it's some running to do between the quests, then again you often get 2-3 quests at once there.

You didn't attack with assist then?

I actually found looting stuff quite fast with keybind on target last hostile and interact with target.. This new aoe loot is really good..

Oh, while i'm at it, do you actually get gold instead of guild experience at level 25 with the guild? Does that apply for the guild experience when questing/doing dungeon bosses too, or only for the challenges? Must be quite a good moneymaker if it applies to quests and dungeons too and not just challenges?

Undead area was definitely the fastest if you skip the two quests where you need to gather {corpses and paws/pelts}. There was waaay too much running back and forth in the Tauren area.

Are you using assist+interact with target for picking up quests or are you using mouse broadcasting? I didn't have this problem at all in the UD area.

No, I used a manual assist when I needed it, but I just let them kill whatever they targeted because that was actually faster. The mobs had so little for hit points that between an arcane shot and the pets, they died without much assistance needed.

I didn't loot when I was doing the guild boosting, it slowed me down and filled my bags with garbage. I just killed and turned in quests, deleted and started over.

As far as I know, you don't get anything once you are guild level 25. There's no XP to gold conversion that I've noticed. You still get the money from perks and challenges, of course, but that's it.

Haha, used to do the undead runs in about 8 minutes and the same for tauren, then i realised i could actually do like you, interact with the npcs too.. shortened the undead timer by 3 minutes almost and tauren by only 1 minute..

Guess my reply above answers what i used to do.. No wonder i had issues at the undead area..

Ah, i'm using assist macros, takes only 3 seconds or so to put them down initially though, so it's not really any harm i guess.

Ah that's odd, i heard that the guild experience earned for a challenge is converted into gold at 25, just like normal xp is converted to gold at max level.
So that if you earn 300 000 guild exp for a challenge, you would earn it in gold instead if at level 25.
