what do you mean by macro?

do you mean one button you press and it fights the whole fight for you? or do you mean macros that run small combos of attacks?

not an advocate of the one button tactics...i dunno i just think it takes some fun out of the game. but to answer your question, i would just assume you should stick some /pauses in there to account for the cool down and warm up timers and it should be similar to what you were doing pre-CU.

Example:
#1 Bleed

/Healthshot1;
/pause #;
/bodyshot2;
/pause #;
/healthshot2;
/pause #;

where # is the amount of seconds it takes before you can do the next attack

/stoppingShot;
/pause 48
/alarmAddIn 0 0 Stopping Shot Ready!

With a little modification this should work pretty well for you. I also like the little alarm message...didn't know you could do that...

badger you are a macro king


i thought i was creative.... i had created a private channel and just had a msg pop up in that channel.... the alarm works so much better though

I've started to love the sound of that alarm now, when an Ancient Krayt has broken out of the root you put on it and electrolyte drain has a few seconds to go... you start to run and then the alarm starts singing to you...

I wanted to chose some of the other alarm sounds to use with it as they are less obtrusive but it doesn't seem you can set them in the syntax of the command.

heh, i was going to ask if you could change the sounds.... would be nice to keep the alarm for duelist stance and stoppinshot seperate

oh well

I put all my recovery moves in one macro:

/dizzyRecovery ;
/pause .5 ;
/knockdownRecovery ;
/pause .5 ;
/stunRecovery ;
/pause .5 ;
/blindRecovery ;
/pause .5 ;

Dizzy first, in case you're KD & Dizzy. If you're not blind, or stunned (or whatever), it will just give you a "wrong state" message and not waste any action. This one is more to free up toolbar space than anything else.

Thats a useful macro, but KD and dizzy doesn't work like it used to. Currently states do the following:

Intimidate: reduce opponent damage output.
Dizzy: reduce accuracy and defense.
Stun : stop ability point regeneration. (but in practice it is anotherdamage outputdebuff)
Blind: greatly reduce accuracy.

I only ever use KD recovery as I use stabilizer enhancers to clear states rather than state recoveries as this uses mind rather than action, but I'll give that one a whirl.
