Target mob macro help

[Crimsonforce]

i'm trying to make a macro to target a specific monster does anyone know how?
like for garuda em i would like a macro to target spiny plumes sometimes i cant see it till it's in the group with everyone and it's not even showing on the enemy list because theres a limit.
i've tryed /targetenemy "Spiny Plume" thinking that would work but it doesnt all it does is targets the closest enemy

This would be interesting to know. Could be very helpful at times.

Not possible.

The only targeting macro that takes an argument is /target, and it only accepts player names.

really? why did they do that i dont understand why they wouldn't, if they did it to make it so people cant make macros to farm monsters that doesnt stop it people are still doing it

What about a macro that attacks a marked target? Like set mark1 on plumy then set a macro to work with mark1?

You CAN do this.

If you mark a target manually, then you can target the marked target directly.

It should work for all of the marks, though you need to use different names for a few (example: after doing "/mk ignore1 <t>" you need to use "/target <stop1>") - for reasons unexplained.
