Healing with mouseover macros?

[Makeda]

If you're going to use mouseovers, it's best to use only mouseovers. Introducing multiple targets will frustrate you more often than it does what you intend, because of the way <t> works with heals -- basically any line after <t> won't matter, because once it gets to <t>, it will heal "someone", and "someone" will usually be yourself if you're not targeting a party member.

Also, avoid using models as mouseover targets. Party frames and target frames are the way to go.

So I tried:

/micon Cure
/ac Cure <mo>
/ac Cure <tt>
/ac Cure <t>

And it fails to ever cast on me, even if I mouse over myself

The same for both of:

/micon Cure
/ac Cure <mo>
/ac Cure <t>

/micon Cure
/ac Cure <mo>

BUT,

/micon Cure
/ac Cure <mo>
/ac Cure <tt>
/ac Cure <t>
/ac Cure <me>

works to get myself

/micon Cure
/ac Cure <mo>

btw, WILL work on the target bar if I target myself... but not on mousing over my unit

It DOES work on others if for example I mouseover a person adjacent to me...

As for skill queueing vs. this, that's an interesting point but I think the time loss from switching to a target is often going to be a LOT greater than the time loss of not having skill queueing. The most current info I could find on skill queueing was from topics on reddit in 2014 - so not sure here.

I know that in MMOs with heavy demand on the healers the difference in throughput from a healer using mouseovers to one targeting their heals is almost double. Skill queueing means it won't be as great here, but it's likely to be notable.
