Warlocks!
« on: August 28, 2006, 11:02:26 pm »
If you're in an instance that your guild has on farm status (where you don't need to be especially paying attention), do your homework or something while spamming these macros unattentively. :)

Code: [Select]
/script ClearTarget();
/assist <MT HERE>
/script CastSpellByName("Shadow Bolt");

/script ClearTarget();
/assist <MT HERE>
/script CastSpellByName("Drain Life");

/script ClearTarget();
/assist <MT HERE>
/script CastSpellByName("Drain Soul");

/script ClearTarget();
/assist <MT HERE>
/script CastSpellByName("Soul Fire");

Obvious, but it makes my raiding life so ridiculously easy I couldn't resist but to share. :)

EDIT -

This looks fun too. Haven't had a chance to test it out yet, servers going down soon and all.

Code: [Select]
/script if (UnitHealth("target")<10) then CastSpellByName("Drain Soul") elseif not IsAltKeyDown() then CastSpellByName("Drain Life") else CastSpellByName("Shadow Bolt") end;

I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.

I don't want to hear about your raiding life until you're ATLEAST in full tier1.
It is good to be good, but it is better to be lucky.

I don't want to hear what you want to hear about until you're AT LEAST level 58.

You don't need to clear the target.  There's an API function to assist a unit.  You should specify the rank of each spell.

Code: [Select]
/script AssistByName("MainTank"); CastSpellByName("Spell X(Rank Y)");

By default it will pick the highest you have, but sure, why not?

Oh, and I'm alpha testing a new addon by the creator of GroupCalander and Outfitter.  It's sooo great...  :D
And like a fool I believed myself, and thought I was somebody else...

I clear the target incase I caught a mob that shouldn't have been shot (IE, he was targetting a sapped mob, or a sheeped mob, or something), so I wouldn't shoot that one if he cleared and didn't have a new target. This was being used in ZG personally, so I didn't assist the main tank, I assisted the other warlock.

Also, I'm rather disapointed in your post Sidoh! You didn't include your opinion. With all due respect, I was half expecting you to call me a lazy ass or something. :).

I know, but since Joe likes to practice good programming... :P

If you're not going to be attentive enough to notice that your target has been afflicted by a crowd control ability, you shouldn't be raiding.  People that don't devote more than a tenth of their attention are what kill raids.

You haven't seen "lazy" until you get AutoHotKey.  I have a button to log me in, one to spam spells while held down, etc.

Seriously, this mod is going to kick another mod in the arse.  I can't name the other mod, that would give away what this one does.  :)

Jesus Christ Blaze, come off the "Blizzard owns me because I'm an alpha tester" :P. And PS, I still want a key.

So wait, I realize I'm a botter myself, but...You're essentially afkbotting on your own guild/raid, people who need you, while other people who might actually do something are sitting out waiting for a spot..? Fucking sad Joe, wow.

Who cares?  Epeen elsewhere. :P

It's not really a bot.  It just saves thet work of changing targets and casting a spell in one button, but it certainly seems that it would allow for him to pay less attention.  He still is at his keyboard, afterall.

I agree with Screenor on this, theres plenty of kids that would love to have a raid spot and would sit at their computers and click every target and pay attention to every spell thats cast.

I already said that it's wrong:

If you're not going to be attentive enough to notice that your target has been afflicted by a crowd control ability, you shouldn't be raiding.  People that don't devote more than a tenth of their attention are what kill raids.

but it's not AFK botting.

What she's saying is if Joe isn't actually playing to have fun and would rather do other stuff, other people that enjoy the game should have his spot.  I agree with this.
