the best would be some combat macro's for the different commands, so i maybe could make a macro which includes all commands i could need.

You can't automate combat. Well you can, but I wouldn't suggest it. The reason behind this is that you'd need to be able to adapt your attack/defense depending on the situation and a constant macro doing it all won't work because it can't be changed on the fly.

I would recommend setting up macro's with either aliases or keyboard hotkeys (remapped) You can set up macro's to do things that would otherwise district your attention, for isntance:

Healing Macro - You'll need some Ruby Biel and some good Stim Ds. Put the Stim D in on the CNTRL F2 Toolbar slot 00 and the Ruby in slot 01

Heal /ui action toolbarPane01
/uiaction toolbarSlot00
/pause .05
/ui action toolbarSlot01
/pause 30
/ui action toolbarPane00
/macro heal

Defense
/duelist
/pause .05
/pause 31
/macro duelist

findjedi
/addfriend (jediname)
/pause .05
/findfriend (jediname)
/pause .05
/removefriend (jediname)

bomb
/tellpet followtar;
/pause 0.1;
/tar (petname);
/pause 0.1;
/detonate;
/pause 0.1;
/tar (jediname);
/pause 0.1;
/tellpet followtar;

Bike
/ui action toolbarPane02
/ui action toolbarSlot04
/ui action toolbarPane04

I set up an alias for all of these so I can use them in combat/out of combat with a few keystrokes and without switching command menus. To set up an alias, the format for the command is:

/alias COMMANDNAME /macro MACRONAME For example /alias bike /macro bike will createcommand called /bike that will pull/store my bike

Again I don't get it. Why would you want a macro that fights for you, especially since situtations differ all the time? The buttons are all right there. All you need to do is click them.

Mau.

Agree wholeheartedly. I created macro's and borrow some from one of the guides here and about to automate things that would take away from my fighting. There is no perfect macro that will fight for you, since your opponent is liable to do literally ANYTHING during that fight. I macro things like the above.... healing, duelist stance, pulling bike with a keystroke, etc. I have some for foods based off the timers for extended PVP, but that's about it.

first, thx for the macro's!

and maybe i spelled it the wrong way, i dont wanna automate my combat, but i want to find some macro's which are helping me fighting, like the healing or the defensive stance macro, so i can relax a bit during long fights instead of instant clicking all the time.

lol, i know im a bit lazy!

Oh I blow up bikes all the time. Especially if the mark is trying to flee. If I see the mark's bike sitting 50m away from a mob lair I will blow it if he makes a move towards it. ONE STEP towards it, and it's toast.

Another useful macro (for me, while grinding) is the following:

GRIND

This macro will attack the cloest thing to you that is IN YOUR CURRENT FIELD OF VIEW. It will NOT attack mobs that you cannot physically see. I am ranged, and usually have a jedi "spinning" on the lair so everything aggro's the jedi when I xp grind. This isn't so much an afk grind as it is just a timesaver. You don't have to constantly target/attack everything.

/pause 2 set the pause to just past your weapon speed
