    draw macro malfunctioning for anyone else???

    ok I have macros that arent firing correctly and for the life of me I cannot figure out why...

    1. Draw placed on specific party member
    /ac “Draw” <p0>
    /wait 30
    /echo DRAW A CARD! <se.6>

    error im getting ““Draw”” is not a valid action name.

    2. disable target of target

    /macroicon "Disable"
    /ac “Disable” <tt>

    same error as draw can anyone see whats wrong?

    It's a stupid reason but, look at the quotes
    “Draw”
    “ isn't "

    1. Your issue is that <p0> is not a valid string for a target name. For party members, it's <0>, <1> etc. Yourself is <0>, although your macro also backfires when you need to apply the buff on someone else (as you will keep applying buffs on yourself). You should make it so when you have someone targetted, the Draw command will go off on the person targetted, and if not targetted, on yourself.

    This is my macro for Draw:

    /micon "Draw"
    /ac "Draw" <t>
    /ac "Draw" <me>
    /wait 30
    /echo Draw the next card! <se.10><se.7>

    2. Make sure your target is actually targetting a proper enemy/targettable mob, and not empty space or a NPC/etc.

    And yes, your quotation marks aren't working as intended. Make sure you use the in-game text, instead of copying-pasting outside macros in. Its tedious but safe.
