Brawler Archive

Hello Everyone!

I am hoping some of you talented Macro people can lend a hand with a special request. I am working my way up the Unarmed Brawler tree in the hopes of one day becoming a TKA. Due to the enormous experience requirements and my lack of fighting ability I have decided to use the bleed shot from my pistol skills to aid me in fighting. I also am using sliced VK's to help with damage output. However, I am hoping someone can help me by writing a brief macro that would do the following:

Change my posture to prone

Shoot target using Bleedshot

Unequip the pistol

Equip the VK's

Pause a few seconds

Stand up

I know it may seem silly, but any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for sharing your knowlege.

Ok, this requires having the pistol and vibroknuckles in particular hotkey slots. For my example below, I used the second row, pistol in the first box (toolbarSlot12), VK in the second (toolbarSlot13). If you want to use different boxes, they're numbered from toolbarSlot00 (the top left) to toolbarSlot11 (the top right) to toolbarSlot23 (the bottom right). Make sure to always use two digits (01, 02, 03, etc)

===begin macro===

/ui action toolbarSlot12; (equips the pistol)
/prone;
/bleedshot; (or whatever the slash command is, the command's details in the action window has it)
/ui action toolbarSlot13; (equips the VK, automatically unequipping the pistol)
/pause 3; (wait3 seconds, adjust as necessary)
/stand;
/follow; (just to make sure you stay in melee range)

===end macro===

Copy this (removing the comments in parenthesis), and it should do what you want. Now, if you execute this macro while you already have the pistol equipped, the first command will un-equip it, leaving you unarmed and messing up the whole thing. AFAIK, there's no logic commands to allow "if pistol notEquipped do /ui action toolbarSlot12". Oh, and it also assumes that your bleedshot victim is targeted. If you want to automatically target the closest opponent, add these two commands to the very beginning:

/ui action targetSelf;
/ui action cycleTargetOutward;

The first command targets yourself, then does a target cycle (the same as hitting Tab), which moves the targeting reticle to the closest enemy in your view. The capitalization is important in those two commands, use them exactly as above.

Thank you so very much for your help. I will give this a try in game tonight. I appreciate your taking the time to offer assistance. If you are ever on Intrepid and need an outfit, please be sure to send me a tell so I can repay you!!

Have a great day!
