Share your dueling macros for fencer. Not just CoB.

Macros arent really trustworthy in PvP.
Lets say you have a dizzy+KD macro, and the Dizzy doesnt hit, then you just KD and it doesnt help you a bit.
In PvP you should rather use one attack at a time (and not spam) and make sure you see if the attack works or not, then follow up with the next planned move, using macros is jsut pointless in PvP as they might make it harder for you rather than helping.

people that try to macro attacks for pvp are the ones you find lying on the ground and it says "corpse of" in front of their name. attack macros in pvp are retarded. you need to learn when to apply certain states and when to use certain attacks.
all else being equal, the person who doesn't use a macro in combat but instead uses their head to decide which attack to use next, based upon the current situation in the fight, is the person who is going to win.

have to agree with the anti-macro crowd. granted, i use a CoB macro in pvp which works just fine, but i wouldn't want to use an attack macro.
that said, one thing in here should be corrected--you can indeed land a kd first and be in good shape. how? use lunge2, then, when you land it, follow immediately with your dizzy shot. if you haven't been spamming (or using attack macros), you'll be able to land the dizzy while your opponent is on the floor. when they try to get up--fish flop. if it's a doc, wacrcy to prevent dizzy cure. pound away.
otherwise, i agree with nealoc et al.--the macros won't help you. go one attack at a time.

The only kind of Fencer macros I use are Warcry and Intimidate macros that are basically just:
/ui action clearCombatQueue;
/intimidate;
And so on. For when I've loaded up a bunch of attacks and the intimidate wears off. Or when I need to delay someone *right now*.
I'm not sure what other kind of macros you'd find useful, for all the reasons mentioned above. If I want to dizzy and posture change somebody, I dizzy them until it sticks, then I use lunge. Having a "dizzy; lunge" macro wouldn't help me much, and would certainly be more trouble than it's worth.

i have all kinds of macros, but no combanation attack
like i have a macro that clears the action queue, but its bond to a key near my arrow pad so i can quickly hit it at any time.
ok my heal, stands and clears the queue and heals myself.

I have to disagree with you all.
This is the macro I use
/dizzy2;
/lunge;
/itimidate;
/blind2;
The only reason I use this is to keep STATES on the opponnet. And to me it's seems that my intimidate allways lands when I have it marcroed?
Macro's are excellent for keeping states on your opponnet, but don't go overboard with marco's though.

Umm.. I love my macro and use it regularly
/warcry1;
/warcry1;
/applypoison;
/intimidate;
/intimidate;
/intimidate;
/applypoison;
/intimidate;
/intimidate;
See, warcry freezes them for 10 seconds but that 10 seconds is cut short if you attack them at all. Being a Master fencer with speed mods I have +115 speed and since I am so fast, my character swings her baton at them between attacks. I do not want to mess up the warcry so I do 2 of them to ensure one will hit and then use intimidation which is not an attack and therefore does not disturb warcry, and being a Cm as well as a fencer i use this time to apply my poisons. Themultiple intimidates are there because up to 4 initimidates can stack at once and each one makes the timer longer. It works wonderfully for me and of course could be done without a macro, but why?
Other than that and my COB macro I do the fighting for myself, there are too many variables in duels for me not to be in control.
