Well this second macro does not work. The droid chases the target just fine then sits by the target's feet. The DroidDet macro does nothing. I jsut used the first macro then typed '/det' in Groupchat and it worked.




The DroidDet macro only works if you are grouped with your pet. Just your pet, no one else in the gourp.






Yep, its always just me and my trusty mouse bombs in a group. No one else. That is how I got it to detonate. I clicked on the droid's name on the group list and the typed in /det ingroup chat. I targeted the mark like the second macro says, however that didn't do it. I actually had to target the droid instead.

Found the error. Does not work in "GroupChat". Do this from Saptial.


I will have to check my macro when I get home form work. Perhaps I put a typo in there??? As a work around, you can hit "Ctrl+1" to target your droid or clikc on his name in the group window.

Thanks for your help with this. If all I need is to type in /det then that is fine. The first macro saves time as it is. This is very situational anyway. The past few targets I've managed to sneak up on. They would be standing in town so I would manage to get by them and act like I am browsing the Bazaar. You know, just stand next ot it. When I am at their back I activate my macro that eats all myfood and puts on my armor. That is when I wanted a macro to set a little mouse bomb behind him and go BOOM. Then lay him down with a knockdown.

Glad it helps.


If your droid is targeted and you type "/det" that will work just fine.


I like to set my droids countdown while it is on the way to the target. It's cool when it is timed just right and "BOOMS" at the same time it arrives.

I want it to do that! Where do you set that? My droid chases but doesn't start the countdown until I type in /det.

You have to time is just right.


Depending on the distence to the mark, depends on when to issue the /det command.


Right after you give it the chase command, target the droid and type /det. The countdown will start while it is on the way to the mark.


Just be careful not to do it too soon, or the droid will blow up before getting to the mark.

Understood. I will give this a try if my next mark warrants being blown up. Thanks again man!
