Add proper macro functionality.

Just went to sit down and make some macros so that I can tank properly in dungeons only to find that the game is missing simple functionality like <st> or <stnpc> affixes. I'm playing on PC so I guess I'll be switching to mouse and keyboard for the time being but the lack this sort of basic stuff makes it more or less impossible to play effectively/efficiently with a controller.

If I was on PS3 I would simply be unable to be a good tank because of this. You need things like <stnpc> to quickly target and provoke a mob that is attacking someone or <stpc> to cure/cover a party member. I had wanted to make some /mk "attackX" <stnpc> macros to quickly mark out target priority in dungeons. I really can't understand how we don't have something simple like this.

Can't agree with OP more. Give us back sub-targeting.

That is a basic feature oO
I quickly target some monster use provoke and after that i will automaticly be back on my main target. Same with cure etc.
Subtargets are implemented in the targetsystem but that is nothing new...
