Thread: camping marcos...
Macros are still for morons.
Use search, there have been many. If not here, check the scout forum. If not there, check the forum for morons.... uh.... Bounty Hunters.
You are just wasting time doing it by macro tho. A camp can be maxed in 8-10 mins with people, takes 51 for a macro camp to poof. Yeah, I know, you are asleep while getting xp. Learning a lot that way aren't we? Hopefully you are hologrinding and get freaking Chef or Image designer next.

Actually, alot of people don't know this surprisingly, but you can macro craft camps and get survival/wilderness xp. I used the same macro as I did in scout, because honestly I hate sitting in a camp and I find it the most boring part about Scout and Ranger is the camps. Here is my macro that I use.

Now, keep in mind the draft schematic will change numbers, the way to figure out what number it is currently, is open your datapad, and click on schematics. Now like reading a book the first schematic is 00 so count starting with that one, and work your way to your proper camp. Also before you start the macro, its always a safe bet to run through the paticular camp crafting process once in practice mode. Just a rough idea on what I can do with 4 crafting tools, 6k bone and 8k hide and 4k metal.. I ground out the first two levels in Frontiering in about 30-45mins. If you ask me, thats alot of time saved.
As with all crafting processes there are two reasons you craft in practice mode. 1. Saves Inventory space. 2. you get a 25% xp bonus for practice mode. ... Happy Camping.
On thing I learned the other day. To find the schematic number, count only what you can make with that crafting tool. I.e. if you are using a generic tool, count everything. If you are using a clothing tool, don't count camp, or weapons, and whatnot. While this generally won't be a problem for rangers as wee use generic tools, if you happen to have another crafting profession, this can save you tons of time finding the schematic number. Let me know if I need to elaborate, of try a differnet method of explaining.
