Thread: /bactajabEnhancer command needed
this is sorely needed, pvp and highend pve both. as a pikeman/doc i usually alwasys draw the hate in pve and i need the extra 500 given with enhancers.
better yet, why dont they fix it so you heal yourself unless you target another player - none of that reverse passthrough crap.
either way it needs attention.
I'm currently using the folloing single line macros;
/bactashot self;
When we first realized there was no other way to use enhancers we (CM and Doc) asked for such commands. We were told something to the effect of "you have to select the item". The reasoning had something to do with not liking the old primary inventory issues that were there in the past. I think they wanted to cut this coding out of the game because it caused other issues. Of course they never really said that but thier reply gave me that impression.
So Sadly, dont expect getting a new command.
What we opted for instead is to get the icons changed on the enhancers so that you can tell them appart. The old buff icons would work just fine. This way you can just put them on your primary tool bar and hit them to use the heal. This would also be a much easier solution to implement.
Since for Doc the only enhancer I use is B. Jab I put that enhancer on my tool bar and use it directly so that I dont have to use a macro. Works great. The good news also is that the Stim D's icon is already different than B. Jab Enh so I dont get them mixed up.

Marrow,
With the way targetting works, I dont really think the toolbar solution is sufficient. Way too often, you either get invalid target message, or heal the person taking damagewhen you want to healyourself. I dont like the idea of needingseparate iconslots on my toolbar for a self-heal macro or heal other option - its already crowded enough without an additional 3 slots taken. I suppose the only option is to macro and key-bind?
I hope to get the targeting thing changed back to the old system for healing. This will kill many of these kinds of issues.

I was dueling a guy and used my bactaJab enhancer and it healed my opponent!?! now thats fuk'd up
that happened to me also - dueling with someone in group. whats worse, it first healedthe guy (also in group) that i just got done dueling who was still recovering! this is what caused me to switch to the /heal self macros.
