Doesn't make sense... I use <stal> and never have this problem. Perhaps I'm missing something here? The reason why you lose target with <stpc> is because your target is on the character model which needs refreshing. With <stal> your targeting cursor is on the member name in the alliance list and will not lose it if the character model "blinks".

All my macro's that require targeting on player characters can we switched between <stal> and <stpc> with one other macro.

Then use <stal> instead of <stpc>.

When you use <stpt> you -do- target the character name in the party list. Same with <stal>.

I meant when you tab for a target onscreen or use F keys you target the players name onscreen instead of their char, would stop gear blinking.

Adjust accordingly for the tier of cure spell. Use it on SMN too...it's a blessing when you are using your Avatars to fight too (or, <gasp> fighting as well, like going for proc on NM's)--you can stay locked on to the mob and still cure everyone.

<stal>Learn it, Use it, love it.

I don't rate it that highly, it makes cures a lot slower.
