Can this be done without hindering any of the other attacks...meaning will the macro timer screw with other attacks working when I click on them?



Thanks

nope, any macro will screw up at some point. Best to just use an alert so you know when to hit it again

I use it on a macro - works fine for me - I am at work at the moment but from memory I think the pause is 31 seconds

I have it on a macro and it works fine.

I also use aura and infusion macros on my jedi, and they have never missed a loop.

I think the secret is not to make the macros too complicated or else they stand a higher chance of failing.

Could you please post or send me a pm with your macro for defensive stance?




Thanks

I never understood this macro thing. Just click the button? It's right there on the screen.

True. But if I have a macro, then that will be one less timer I have to watch.

I have a Duelist Stance macro on my bh aswell, works fine if u know how to not mess up... The stance has a powerup so u need to be standing still everytime the macro reloop, otherwise it messes up. But its really quite simple, mine looks like this:



Macro name: AutoDuelistStance


/DuelistStance;


/pause 31;


/macro AutoDuelistStance;

jeeess has it right on. however, you can actually shorten the timer a bit.


name: dsloop


/duelist;


/pause 28;


/macro dsloop;



now the pause will expire before the special does, including the warmup. with this, i'm never w/out DS on unless i was moving when the warmup started. in a case like this, i just hit DS on my toolbar. and then the process will repeant in 28 seconds; the macro didnt break, just that instance of DS.


the only problem i'll have is when im hitting hotbuttons and the loop fires it will supercede the action i just asked for. so, if you need to heal right now or die and your loop runs, you're screwed.

Actually, I use mine this way

/Dueliststance
/pause 25
/emote stop
/pause 5
/macro duel

the emoting stop tells you that ur 5 seconds away from redoing your duelist stace, so you dont miss it.
