Quick Guide to makeing a macro in the game:
..................................................................

Right click on an empty skill hot bar slot (or a filled one to edit it).

Name it something stupid.

In the large box, type in your macros. They are case sensitive IF they are in "Quotation Marks" (in that case, they generally follow normal rules for book title capitolization where the first word is capitolized as is the rest except for the short words such as: the and or of etc... (conjunctions, I think...) ex. "The Wind in the Willows"

You can find lists of all the macro commands all over, so they won't be pointlessly repeated here.

for the listed macros, only use the lines starting with a /whatever in the large box. Do NOT use the titles in the large box.
.................................................................

Harvesting:

/endharvest
/lootall
/autoattack
/targetnextnode

This will try to loot the currently targeted thing, attack (it's how to force a harvest), then look for a new node. The reason for NOT starting with the last line is so that you don't accidently start harvesting a node while running past it (wasteing some resources).


Auto Targeting:

/targetnearest

slap this command above the command for your skill, and it will (usually, there's a bug still that sometimes doesn't target the nearest hostile whatever when one is standing still, and one is in motion). To do this, right click on a skill you use, then simply insert this line infront of the current macro (usually /cast "Skill Name") and hit return so it looks like this:

/targetnearest
/cast "Skill Name"


*final note, this will target pc's on the pvp servers as well as npc's that you can attack (yes, even occasionally yellow ones, so be carefull)




Generic Loot Macro:

/lootall
/targetnextcorpse

It helps alot to use a programable keyboard, or auto-it to spam this one, say 1 time per second.






Practical application for use in grinding on level 1 mobs to get you to level 5 easily:

/lootall
/targetnearest
/cast "Your Classess Starting Good Skill Here"


Then simply hit that one skill button, it will trigger the autoattack all by it's self. (a 4 second delay-so far there's no way I know of to make an in game macro pause-will allow you to afk grind from level 3 to 5 on level 1 mobs....)




Happy Bard Macros:

/wear "Drum"
/playsong "Speed"


or....


/wear "Copper Dagger" primaryhand
/wear "Copper Parrying Dagger" secondaryhand
/playsong "War"


or....


/wear "Lute"
/Playsong "Heal"


etc...



The sticking in of the /wear "Item Name With Correct Capitolization" will automatically equip your bard with the items that help the most under that circumstance. ie, the 30% move buff will show up as "some melody" 100%. However, the same one WITH even the starter drum (you get for free) will show up as "some melody" 180%. So.... use the dam drums when running around, they will significantly help (almost doubleing the effect) same goes with healing and string instruments, or damageing abilitys, and horns and charms with flutes.

there's nothing stopping you thieves from abuseing the /wear "Whatever" as the top line of your attacks, especially with skills like backstab that require a low damage dagger when the rest of your skills work better with longswords.... so stick a /wear "Dagger" above the /cast "Backstab" line in that skill, and /wear "Longsword" over the other skills....

Forgot one....

/cancelability

This belongs as the first line in any counter spell or blocking attack. it will stop your current action, and let the interrupt (counter spell) go off now instead of waiting for your currently activating ability to finish first.

Sorry for missing it the first time.

I had that one, though from your point of view, it was backwards and longer than necessary. There is a long winded explaination below. (only read of you don't trust me that my way is better).

/lootall
/targetnextcorpse

Yes, it "looks" backwards, but it's not. when you kill something, you've got a corpse targeted by default (with the exception of a few of the area effects) so there's no need to /corpse (which targets the nearest corpse) before you loot. Also, if you try to loot too soon after you tarrget a corpse, server lag won't catch the items in the corpse the first time and pop up with the corpse equivelant of the harvestig node bug where you can't harvest right now... (that's fixable by /endharvest when you get a node that you can't harvest. The corpse bug is fixable by /endloot but that's usualy a waste of time for 1-3 copper...). Finally, when doing grinds against a large number of weenie mobs with fast respawns, your corpse count will grow to a point where /corpse is missing out on alot of lootable targets.

That's easy, on the last line of the macro, do NOT hit return, and do NOT have any spaces at the end of the macro

If the command you are haveing problems with has a line below it, make sure there is no space at the end of that line. Leave the blinking cursor at the end of the last, or only line.

I am failry sure that spells/skills with numbers are all useing roman numerals (so the l, ll, lll etc are all capitol i's), but if it's absolutely refuseing to work, delete that macro (drag it off the bar) drag the working macro from the abilitys tab of your character (where all your skills are listed) and modify that one inserting whatever lines you need aboce and or below that line.

expurt
/cast "Time Trick 1"
/g Mezzing %to

o is for offensive
d is for defensive

So you could use this to anounce every heal or move if you wanted.

Right click your abilities to turn them into a macro.
