Also, the

/target midgettarget for example

In a more advanced method, it would be

/target focustarget - Then have your alts all focus the character you wield as your main. In case your main dies, you should have several buttons set up. (Personally I got them in F1-F5.) to change the focus of your chars, to assign a new main.

For example. F1 makes your toon1 /clearfocus whilest it does a

/clearfocus
/focus toon1

on your other 4 chars.

F2 would be

/clearfocus
/focus toon2

Except on your toon2 char, F2 would only do /clearfocus.

Etc, etc.

That way, if yourmain dies (toon1) you can click F2, go to that screen, And continue while all other remaining live toons now act as if they are alts of toon2, and not alts of toon1

That's yet another step tho. You can start with just using /target <maintoon>target to set things up, and perhaps add a focus system once you're ready for that. x)

... Oh how I love setting up macro systems for my shammies. <3
