    Need help with Fairy macros on the PS4.

    I like having a macro that makes Eos/Selene Embrace the person that I'm healing when I use Physick.

    I use this macro after setting the Fairy to Obey:

    /ac "Physick" <t>
    /mac "Embrace" <t>

    The problem is that if I'm healing a subtarget, Eos heals my primary target instead (usually the tank). If my primary target is a mob she just heals herself. I could have sworn that this used to work like I wanted it to work, but it's been a while.

    Is there a way to get Eos to heal my subtarget?

    Swap the order of the lines.

    When you have a subtarget, and you use a macro for one of your own abilities (not your pet's), it casts that one ability on your subtarget, and then cancels the subtarget so that you're back to only having a target. Which your pet then casts on because of the next line.

    When you have a subtarget and use a pet ability, it does not cancel the subtarget. So if you put the pet ability first, the pet will cast on the subtarget, then your own ability will cast on the subtarget, and then the subtarget will cancel (leaving you with only a target).

    Lol, the answer was so simple that now I just feel embarrased. I imagine that's the macro I used to have on my PS3 before I moved to the PS4.

    Thanks for the help. ^^
