Useful Healing Macros

[Tovonto]

has anyone got a cure 2 macro to work?
I use /ac Cure II <mo> and i get nothing

Nevermind I figured it out just need the quotations around Cure II lol

i couldnt get the <mo> command to work for any of my Scholar abilities. However i found this in the patch notes of things fixed.

•The text <mo> may not function correctly

i have not tested this yet. Once i get home from work i will try it again.

while iam on the topic of scholar doesn any one have any useful macros for a scholar. i have used most of the ones in this forum, but are there any other Scholars out there with anything useful with pet macros etc. (i am new to creating macros ) . Most of my macros seam very basic and i have struggled in dungeons as of late.

thank you.

There is no way that I know of to use pet actions in a macro unfortunately. I posted some that combined CJN/WHM and ACN/SCH a couple pages back.

I was wondering about the pet Macros since people can't seem to use the /pet command, is it possible to bypass it and possibly direct the macro to the pets hot bar locations a flail example but just an idea, /ac "Pet Hot Bar Location" <mo>?

Is there a guide to the macroscript somewhere?

This is my favourite thread on the entire forum, really useful posts.

The only one I have that I haven't seen mentioned is a 'taking damage' one to warn the tank when I'm taking damage:

/p Help, I'm being attacked
/ouch

I don't spam it, but it is useful if the tank hasn't noticed me starting to pick up damage. Coupled with a less than subtle sprint towards him it has always helped me out.

This kind of macro harbors laziness from the tanks. It isn't your job to watch where the mobs go or tell teh tank when he's not doing his job. If the tank is this bad, I probably wouldn't run with him unless it was a simple dungeon instance.

That's a little harsh, isn't it? For whatever reason he might not have noticed. I'd rather communicate with my team and avoid a wipe than have to complain about the bad tank afterwards.

Would you suggest that the tank or dps make macros that say "Healer, please heal me, my health is low."

?

Maybe healers should also make macros that say "Derp, please stop standing in the red shapes on the ground"

You could make several macros:
/p <1>, please stop standing in teh red shapes on teh groud"
/p <2>, please stop standing in teh red shapes on teh groud"
/p <3>, please stop standing in teh red shapes on teh groud"

This comes across as sounding very harsh, but I completely agree.

I wouldn't want anyone messaging me nonstop telling me to do my job. So I expect them to do theirs w/o constant reminders during combat as well. If there's an issue, correct it in between fights. There's plenty going on during combat in the high level stuff for healers to have to worry about people spamming chat. If I have to take the time to read chat to be reminded to heal...that brief time may have taken away from me actually watching your health bar and casting cure before it's too late.
