Tanking Macros?

[Thorcamo]

While I was grouping someone said it would be smart to make a macro that told people what I was pulling. I've never used macros before so if someone could help me make some tanking macros then that would be nice. <div></div>

<P>Yes, it is a good idea to have a macro to tell your group that you are pulling.</P> <P>Under the "Socials" window, click on the Macros tab.  Click <Edit Macro> and under the "Commands" line type:</P> <BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr> <P>/g Incoming %T</P></BLOCKQUOTE> <DIV>Now just drag and drop the macro to an empty spot on your hotbar and you are good to go.  Just click that macro each time before u pull.</DIV>

<P>you should also be able to add a couple lines and do something like</P> <P>/useability "combat art name or autoattack ranged etc"</P> <P>so you can just hit that button to launch an arrow and say what you are pulling</P>

when tanking a few at a time it is good to have a incoming message but when you are chain pulling mobs every which way you dont want to spam every1. when i pull a mob i have /g Incoming +[ %t ]+ kill now before it kills the healers. i think its better for the group to have the targets name in a box of some kind or some different lines so they can see you are pulling something and able to be ready for whats coming in. <div></div>
