Come on, get off the guys back. If you'vce bothered to read the thread, you'll see that all he wants to do is have this running instead of mashing keys every few seconds. With as long as it takes to kill a dragon, I can't blame the guy. If you don't want to do what he's doing, then don't. But don't be calling the guy names.

I agree with both of you guys! This poor guy NEVER SAID ONE WORD ABOUT AFKING A KRAYT! And you guys just jump right in and smash him. Just shows me that none of you guys have any useful information for him, so all you can do is throw pointless insults at him. Macro's were put in so that we could automate some of the repetitive tasks in the game and that's all the guy wants to do. So anyone who just simply wants to slam the guy for AFK macroing.....Shut up....He's not AFK macroing.


Now, to actually help the guy with his macro!


Why do you even want to peace at all? Just spam concealshot at him until he's dead. You have two options, you can either make a macro that will turn one keypress into 10 by just repeating concealshot 10 times in the macro and pressing the key when the combat queue is almost empty, or you can just make a macro with one concealshot in it and make it loop.. It's really easy to do.


Name you macro something like concealloop.


Then simply do this:


/concealshot
/macro concealloop


That will cause your macro to simply spam concealshot over and over. We warned though that if you DID happen to get called AFK for a minute and your concealshot landed one of those random bleeds that it tends to land, you would be instant Krayt munchies. To terminate this loop, simply type /dump.


If anyone else has anything constructive to add please do, otherwise, shut up and leave the guy alone. Especially if you don't know what you're talking about!

Just one thing to add to this. ... well, two things. First you have to name the macro concealloop. The /macro nameofmacro and the name of the macro have to be the same. And if you just use a dump to stop conceal shotting, you'll still be in combat and will just use normal, non-special shots on the Krayt. So I'd suggest makeing a dump command as follows:


/dump;
/peace;

I'm going to his server...whatever it is.


On my server, the words "solo" and "Krayt" are never in the same sentence....be prepared to get outdamaged by a group whereI am.

Conceal shot does not require a peace to macro. Many have claimed it helps. The only thing the "/peace" in your macro does is make it so that if you miss once while in those three, you will not get a consecutive miss, which breaks conceal and draws aggro to you. The odds of that, at master riflemen, especially if you have any accuracy tapes is next to nil.


My conceal shot macro is very simple and I use it for only short periods of time.


Name: conceal

/concealshot;

/concealshot;

/macro conceal


It loops concealshots nonstop without the second wasted on peacing out and restarting. It still won't save youfrom the likely 1 point bleed, but it is simpler than filling your queue. The only thing in the game worth conceal shotting as a master riflemen is an SBD and that's only because you can't kite them, tank them, or otherwise kill them solo. Krayt dragons should be killed with headshot3 and kiting if solo without doc in your template, toe to toe if you have doc in your template, or with a group from range. It's a waste of time and effort to try to conceal shot a krayt. The odds of not getting a bleed are low (I've done it many times to try it out, the odds are less than 1 in 3 that you won't get a bleed before it's dead or despawned and vary depending upon the gun used) and the rewards for the time put in are minimal. You need to kill more krayts than conceal shotting will allow for your time and AFKing is just a good way to get folks like myself to come by and draw the krayt onto you just to have the pleasure of watching it kill you.

On sunrunner? Your just huntin in the wrong spots and besides im pretty sure that a group cant outdamage a solo person..it goes by the single person that does the most damage. i could be wrong /shrug

the problem with his original macro was that he had no pauses. The game was peacing as soon as he entered the shots, if he adds in /pause 1 after each shot he should be fine,
