Backup heal in 2nd group?

[Denizen]

A lazy way is to get a donor cleric weapon and if you are in a situation that needs lots of heals, have the cleric target themselves and cast it as often as it refreshes:

casting " Flindara, Beacon of Light" mainhand -kill

[Enrikk]

Good suggestions, and thank you!

I have the donor item on my main cleric, and use it when needed. Is the coding "/casting " Flindara, Beacon of Light" mainhand -kill" ?

With a 25sec refresh it's totally doable, just needing to find the right syntax for it.

While I'm here, now that I have a workable macro, what pauses a macro? The current macro stops when I die or zone, but otherwise just keeps going. How do I pause it?

The answer has popped up in the VIP sections of various boards, but it has to be a quick command I'm thinking. I have no problem donating, I just want to do so for more than one question.

with a timer :

Code: Select all

        /if (${Cast.Ready[Flindara, Beacon of Light]} && ${FlindaraBeaconofLightTimer}<=0) {
            /casting "Flindara, Beacon of Light" item
            /if (!${Defined[FlindaraBeaconofLightTimer]}) /declare FlindaraBeaconofLightTimer timer global
            /varset FlindaraBeaconofLightTimer 25s

or with all cast:

Code: Select all

        /if ((${Me.Class.Name.Equal[Cleric]} || ${Me.Class.Name.Equal[Paladin]}) && !${Me.Moving})

            /if (${Cast.Ready[Hammer of the High Priest]} && ${HammeroftheHighPriestTimer}<=0) {
            /casting "Hammer of the High Priest" item
            /if (!${Defined[HammeroftheHighPriestTimer]}) /declare HammeroftheHighPriestTimertimer global
            /varset FlindaraBeaconofLightTimer 10s

            } else /if (${Cast.Ready[Flindara, Beacon of Light]} && ${FlindaraBeaconofLightTimer}<=0) {
            /casting "Flindara, Beacon of Light" item
            /if (!${Defined[FlindaraBeaconofLightTimer]}) /declare FlindaraBeaconofLightTimer timer global
            /varset FlindaraBeaconofLightTimer 25s

            } else /if (${Cast.Ready[Word of Strategy]}) {
            /cast "Word of Strategy"
            } else /if (${Cast.Ready[Word of Vivification]}) {
            /cast "Word of Vivification"
            } else /if (${Cast.Ready[Blessed Wave Rk. III]}) {
            /cast "Blessed Wave Rk. III"
            } else /if (${Cast.Ready[Blessed Wave Rk. II]}) {
            /cast "Blessed Wave Rk. II"
            } else /if (${Cast.Ready[Blessed Wave Rk. I]}) {
            /cast "Blessed Wave Rk. I"

            } else /if (${Cast.Ready[Frozen Faithbringer's Breastplate]} && ${FrozenFaithbringersBreastplateTimer}<=0) {
            /casting "Frozen Faithbringer's Breastplate" item
            /if (!${Defined[FrozenFaithbringersBreastplateTimer]}) /declare FrozenFaithbringersBreastplateTimertimer global
            /varset FrozenFaithbringersBreastplateTimer 10m
            }
        }

        /if ((${Me.Class.Name.Equal[Shaman]} || ${Me.Class.Name.Equal[Druid]}) && !${Me.Moving}) {

            /if (${Cast.Ready[Immaculate Prism of Life]} && ${ImmaculatePrismofLifeTimer}<=0) {
            /casting "Immaculate Prism of Life" item
            /if (!${Defined[ImmaculatePrismofLifeTimertimer ]}) /declare ImmaculatePrismofLifeTimertimer global
            /varset ImmaculatePrismofLifeTimer 15s
           
            } else /if (${Cast.Ready[Prism of Corruption]} && ${PrismofCorruptionTimer}<=0) {
            /casting "Prism of Corruption" item
            /if (!${Defined[PrismofCorruptionTimer]}) /declare PrismofCorruptionTimertimer global
            /varset PrismofCorruptionTimer15s
            }
        }


This technic is a manual cast by spamming function or can be use also with the group heal function.
But does not allow you to heal a true tank.

coding is fine but you must first target someone in the cleric's group.

No way I know of pausing a macro but can just end it and restart it. It ends if another macro is started or when you type
/endm

[Enrikk]

Thank you again!

Especially for /endm! I ran my first test of an automated healer last night against Xeru, and it worked flawlessly.

A little bit of knowledge is dangerous, so I should be downright lethal at this point!

You can pause a macro its /mqpause I think. I'm at work right now but when I get home I can log in and look at my hotkey

I share a small demonstration of a heal rotation with 4 healer
what we can do during the intensive phases and use them in parallel on different group otherwise.

the last good optimization is to add a little cast break if target is already full healer. this allow to raid a big event.
the only disappointment is to reach the limits of the event timer.
