Anyone have a good swordsman combat macro? I am trying to figure out a decent attack string instead off hammering away at hot keys all the time.

I'd be interested in knowing somethng similar. I dont exactly want a macro, but atleast a good order of attack to do like....

Intimidate
WarCry
Lunge
2H Hit

Something like that I guess.

Do WarCry and Intimidate work? I really never used them so I always start a fight like this:

Lunge

2H Hit

and then it depends on wether there is more than one baddie and how fast my target recovers from the position change

please expand as I would like to have a sense of direction going into battle also

Well I do pretty good so here is what I do:

Solo ( this is one target only )

equip powerhammer ( only after you have more acc bounuses )

lunge

bleed 1

bleed 2

equip

ack stupid msg board

continued:

equip 2-h curved sword

now style away with mind hits ect... Assuming the mob is still standing by this time.

Against many targets:

area sweep

area attack repeat till all are dead or down to one target.

I might start to add in warcry and or intimidate shortly. Best place to add these is warcry after the lunge ( might slow down thier recovery from the lunge ). And intimidate after the bleeds.

By and far your bleeds will give you the most punch on big targets that you don't drop with one or two hits. So these need to get placed first to do the max damage possible for the length of the fight.

Swordsman is probably the easiest melee 'grind.' The only macro that would be useful for a swordsman would be a center of being macro, however this would have to be talored to your character:

name: center
/centerofbeing;
/pause #; number depending on how many center of being 2 handed center of being skill you have
/m center

if you really try and dont funk around you can master heavy swords in one day

Here it is, the best way to grind is *drumroll* Kill things..yep, you heard it here first, that is the best way, well that and crafting headhit3's, but that takes a ton of time...

C'mon, a grinding MACRO for a COMBAT class? here killing=hunting=faction farming=clearing caves clear enough for you? you have to KILL for xp, you really cant macro killing, unless you like that 1pt of xp for killing meatlumps, then yeah, afk away...
