Incoming messages for Puller - macroFollow
In EQ could make a macro using %T to insert in INC. macro to indicate name of target. Didn't find much on Blizzard or Allakh. site to help with this - or macros in general. Please give help how to use the /m function to best effect for better Party experience. TY
Reminds me to FF XI
Pulling <t>!
Pulling <t>!
i couldnt really figure out the macros myself, i will have to play around with them this week to figure them out, ill post back here with some info later if someone else doesnt beat me to it.
◕ ‿‿ ◕
there was a macro seting but every time i would sit and try to make one... i would look at all the cool icon and think what that spell or skill would do and who would do it and... it would end there
-_-;; so many cool icon!!!!!!!!!!!

the %t is also target in Wow ;)
Go figure ;)
If you are used to the controls and stuff in EQ, WoW is very similar.
Estimated guess that you plan to be a hunter :D
The hunters have a nice little spell called "Mark of the Hunter". It's a simple yet handy little spell that marks the target you want with a bouncing red arrow. Makes everything so much more simplier. Just wanted to let ya know :)

Macros are actually very easy in WoW.
Type /macro and it pulls up a macro tool. First you type in the name of the macro and select a graphic for it.
Then there is a box on the bottom where you can type in various commands. I had one for incoming.
/g Incoming %T
/v inc
This would say the incoming in group chat and my character would verbally say incoming as well.
Can do this with just about anything including spells, can only cast 1 spell per macro though.

Please oh please dont make stupid macros like:
COME GET SOME ((%t)) IM GONNA PULL YOU TO YOUR DOOM!!!!!
Make it nice and simple, not only that, foreigners might beable 2 understand also...
i.e:
Pulling > %t!

Also note that blizzard has put in some nifty shortcuts for macro, like the fact that if you shift-click a spell in your spellbook with the macro window open, it will put that spell into your macro wherever the cursor is currently.
/p, /gu, /yell, /w %T all work, and to use an ability do /cast ability. To put the attack command in there, you use /cast attack (or something like that, i just shiftclick the attack ability).
Also note that there's apparently a scripting language for this, as i've seen people use things like:
Self Heal
/target self
/cast healing 1
/targetlastenemy()
which apparently allows you to self heal without interrupting a nukefest. the /assist command works, (and i wish more people used it...).
I don't know how macroable tradeskills are.

Hope all that good info is in book that comes with Disk. Just trying to get the headsup so I can play better - sooner. The game is too good to read at same time - too little down time >sarcasm<
Also asking questions for which I know half the answers for the poor people who didn't get to play the OB.
Have fun all - less than two days to go ))
