me, i use it to organise my fighting macros, so i can quickly switch macroes round if i come across a new monster

What does everyone else use this feature for?

[Rappy_Ninja]

the funny part is I have no clue how to use it

[Sneaky]

i use it for RF so i don't accidentally hit that macro and waste mana.

On the other cleric, i have it set as /cast divine restoration/ so i can heal someone low on hp quickly.

On mages, i have it as AoP or invis.

On druid, i have it as camou.

[combusta]

on druid i have as stormwrath, so in like moshes/events instead of having 2 type out /cast stormwrath/ all the time i can just do /s

cleric, DR

and thats it....dont use it for any1 else

[Thunderja]

Mine is /load alts command on 1 crit. Afk messages on the others.

[Äññöÿäñcë]

Cleric - DR
Mage - Invis


Pretty much all I use it for..

[Piggy]

I use /s for clerics with DR

[joanna]

am i missing something... how do you use it for DR? set /s to /cast divine restoration/ and then set f1 through f12 to /s (alt name)?

[MysticStorm]

I don't get how to use the /s maco either so could someone care to explain?

[Alchemy]

Let's say you want to use Nourish on a crit called Sally...

In the /s field in the macro settings .. you would put /cast nourish/

Than, it will nourish Sally if you type /s Sally

[MysticStorm]

so in other words I would have to actually type /s in order to use it. That's rather a bit gay since with all the macros you just hit 1 key!

[Äññöÿäñcë]

Its a lot easier when using it to heal, as you just go /s [character name] instead of having to remember macros if you are running a large amount of characters

[joanna]

Considering in the time it takes someone to type /s leal (longest crit name id need to type so it didnt heal someone with similar name) to cast *one* heal spell on *one* crit, i could have hit *42* heal macroes and healed my full party (party leader has 4 move macroes and 8 DR, 2 other clerics have all 12 macroes on DR, pally has 2 attack and 10 aid, 8+12+12+10=42)

I still prefer using /s to copy/paste attack macroes quickly (wont be a problem to people who use 15 zerks/5 clerics, but i perfer to use parties of mixed type of attackers, rangers, zerks, fighters, thieves, druids)


(edit, paladin has 2 attack and 10 aid not 12... would love 14 function keys )

You trying to say you could scroll through 4 characters and press all of there macros in time takes to type /s blah. I think not.

[Snoopy]
