[align=center]I'm on a video kick. Mainly just familiarizing myself with Vegas

Nothing spectacular, but I did learn some new tricks, and made myself a logo!

Good job on the vid and SM. You are progressing very quickly and very well. Keep up the good work (if you can call it work, looks helluva fun) tehe.

Thanks guys, will do!

I'd do even more videos if it wasn't for vimeo's upload limit... unless I make a THIRD account, LOL

Great movie.

Got a few questions tho if you don`t mind. Seeing I`m a noob boxer.

1. Any chance you could tell me what macro you use for the formation?
2. Your chars are lvl38 as far as I can see. Even when they are tanking they don`t seem to get oneshotted. Yet I assume they are mostly cloth right?
3. I see you leave your chars back, do they stay there when you order them in formation or is there any stop follow macro or so?

Thanks in advance,

David :P

1. I use two different formations:
A: (The one you see in the video) One key bound the same on each. The main does nothing, One player strafes right, one left, one forward, and one back.
B: Two different keys, 2 bound the same on one set of clones (strafe left and right), and two bound on the other two clones (also strafe left and right) -- Hitting one key makes two move outward like so...
[Main]
[Clone 1] [Clone 2]
When I hit the other button, the other two clones move outward too, and the end result is this:
[Clone 3] [Clone 1] [Clone 2] [Clone 4]
I can either keep them behind me like that, or I hit their buttons to leave a space for me in the center. (B will all be bound to one key once I get x-keys)

2. Yep, they are wearing mostly cloth. They aren't one shotted, because they are barely ever hit because of the totems that are dropped (on big pulls):
A. 4 Heath Totems, 1 Mana Totem
B. 3 Stoneclaw Totems (Taunts enemies), 1 Stoneskin Totem (Reduces Melee Damage Taken) & 1 Earthbind Totem (Slows enemies to prevent runners)
C. On pulls of 3 or more, I also throw 5 Molten Totems into the mix (AOE).

Yes, they are wearing cloth, but because of the added intellect and +spelldamage, they kill things much quicker, usually before they can even touch me. And if they do happen to jump on a clone, I've got healing macros setup:
A. They heal themselves (Healing Wave)
B. They heal themselves (Lesser Healing Wave)
C. They heal my target (Healing Wave)
D. They heal my target (Lesser Healing Wave)
E. They heal me (Healing Wave) <- Mainly used for boss fights.

But so far I rarely use these macros except for boss fights. I just got Chain Heal, too, but I haven't played since I got it so I am not sure how I'm going to set that up yet.

More than you may have asked for, but all the above reasons is why I survive so well in cloth.


3. Like I said, I just tap my formation button when I need to leave them somewhere, as it automatically stops them from following. If I am pulling, or even making them stay put while I run around Org, I tap this button. And when I want them to follow me again, I hit my /follow Macro.
