<DIV>Hi Everyone:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Just wanted to share a macro with the SK community that I thought was pretty handy. It involves our *<EM>dmg/heal ward, </EM>which I find a lot of SK's don't even know can be self cast. So without further ado:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> Line1: /target_self</DIV> <DIV>*Line2: /useability grave blessing</DIV> <DIV> Line3: /target_previous</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Basically, this macro takes away the minor tedium of targeting yourself, casting the ward, then re-targeting the mob you were about to destroy. It's a great way to open a fight, but rather unnecessary during the combat, as the mob will be targeting you, so just casting it normally will still work. I also asvise using Alt+m to manage your maintained spells so you can see when the ward wears off and needs to be recast.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>*Spells include (depending on level): Infernal blessing, Infernal pact, Unholy blessing, Heinous blessing, grave blessing</DIV>

Yes, unless you're not engaged in combat with the enemy. What you're talking about is assist-buffing, and it only works in combat. Thanks for the macro.<div></div>

I have separate keys for Assist, TargetMT, TargetNearestNPC set up next to this spell.I have had problems with in game lag in that the target doesn't change fast enough for the right person to get the buff using in game macros, so I doubt a single macro will work under crowded fight conditions.Then again, I've only been a SK for a week, so what do I know <span>:smileywink:</span><div></div>

<div></div>I can understand that <a href="../view_profile?user.id=22998" target="top"><span>Baaloc</span></a> is not reading www.raidwiki.org but you Xanoth <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> This macro is there for ages...<div></div>

Hey, can you give me the code for the "target MT" macro?  I'm figuring it's probably something really obvious like "/target Name" but I usually get macro syntax wrong.  Thanks.<div></div>
