    Pet ability macros

    So, embrace seems to work fine in a macro. I plan to make macros for all abilities, heal and dmg, with /pac embrace <focus> (tank as focus). That way the tank will get heals before reaching 70%.

    I can't seem to get the cooldown abilities to work in a macro, and I've tried all I can think of. I was considering putting rouse and whispering dawn together in a macro, since they have the same cooldown and it maximizes pet healing. Anyone try this successfully? Any help would be appreciated.

    Just guessing.

    /pac "Whispering Dawn" <pet>

    BTW, How do you get the pet icons to show for macros?

    1. The number of Lv.50 classes/jobs you have says nothing about your skill.
    2. FATEs are responsible for the majority of Lv.50 "derps".
    3. Don't blame a healer if you died in red zones; that was all on you.
    4. As a healer, healing is your top priority; DPSing comes second.
    5. As a tank, your healer can only keep you alive for so long; avoid red zones, too.
    6. As a DPS, you're partially responsible for hate management, too.
    7. Don't belittle newbs for their lack of skill or knowledge; you were one of them once.

    Just wanted to follow up. I did get the macro to work, I was forgetting the quotation marks.
    /pac "whispering dawn" <me>
    in case anyone else is having trouble. It seems that if the ability is one word you don't need them, but if two words or followed by a II or III, you do need them. The icons don't seem to be working at all though, unfortunately.
