Mouseover Macro buggy for anyone else?

[Fabb]

I've been using the mouseover in macros exclusively this past weekend while healing dungeons.

What i've noticed is that sometimes, even though i know i'm moused over my target because the little dot is next to their name and their pane is lit up, it will not heal them, it will instead heal me.

It was happening about once each pull this weekend so i thought it was my macro.
I took out the portion of the macro where if i'm not moused over something it will heal <me> just because i thought that might be bugging it, but even when I took that out of the macro it would still sometimes heal me rather than the tank i was moused over.

has anyone else had this issue?

i have the same problem, finally i deleted the on mouse over part of the macro, a friend says it could be because of the intended target´s distance from you, so even when you have mouse over the target you cant cast Cure on him so the macros goes on, i´m not sure if this was or not the issue but i already get used to change targets with the old move&click xD

It's probably because you're too far away.

For tank heals, I personally prefer a different macro.

The mouseover macro works better for the DDs as I just mouse over their name in the party menu, fortanks, I use the following:

/ac Cure <tt>

That will heal the target of your target, so if you're targeting the boss and the tank has aggro, using that macro while you're targeting the boss will heal the tank.

I thought that too but there were fights where, the tank was just tanking the boss, and hadn't moved at all, I had just casted heals on him 2 or 3 times before that, and he hadn't moved, then like the 4th cast it would cast on me.

I've been healing dungeons with nothing but mouse over and have had zero issues. The only things I could say are distance or LoS possibly. Are you on PC or PS?

Can we use mouse over on ps3 with mouse and keyboard ? And if not can we get a petition started please

i had the same issue with MO, what i used to fix such issue is every time casts a mo spell, i move my mouse to somewhere else not on the target then move back in, forcing triggering another check on my mouse position on the target. I think there's something in their mo checking mechanism that your MO target will lose after a certain amount of idle time.

I had this problem wipe the group once. The macro just wouldn't heal my target and by the time I opened actions menu the tank was dead. Really hope they fix this since I've only used <mo> macros to heal in MMO's for years, clicking anything feels so clunky to me.

Yeah, it's still happening to me, i'm for sure it's not range or any of those factors, hopefully its a small bug they can fix after their many larger issues.
