Hey there would anyone be able to help me with a Blessing of Sanctuary macro?
So I’d like to setup a key bind for blessing of sanctuary to be used on the healer on my 2v2 ,3v3 or solo shuffle team
At the moment I’m constantly changing my macros target name each game that I have a different healer.
I know there is mouse over macro, but I’m too slow to react do it that way lol.
Any help would be appreciated thank you!
get the addon FrameSort
settings>addons>framesort> in arena tab check ‘player top’ > check sort by role
healer will be party 2
#showtooltip
/cast [@party2] blessing of sanctuary
thanks heaps, i tried it but for some reason the macro doesn’t work. even though the healer is in party 2.
soz wouldnt let me post on Ares
You can get the framesort addon and recently it added variables for roles. So you can create a macro that has @healer as the target and it will always use that spell on your healer in arena regardless of their frame position.
If you want to re order roles afaik that only visually moves them it doesnt change party1/2 variables. Framesort does assign a new variable to reordered frames i think its just @frame1 or @frame2, not at a pc to check.
This doesn’t change the actual party 2 just the visual you see.
Oh I haven’t heard this theres other macros to make frame sort work. Il have to try thanks. If you check pc later and want to post the macros would be a big help
The framesort addon has a screen where it details the variables it adds.
I tried to use framesort a while back to keep myself in a particular spot. In solo shuffle the frames get all screwed up because the party members stay the same but the frames look correct. So in the next round my mouse wheel macro would be reversed and all of the sudden up is down and down is up. Has this been resolved or is there a workaround?
Yes, framesort also creates keybind opportunities for frame1 and frame2 if you sort them, you would rebind party1 and party2 keybinds to frame1/2.
99% sure its called frame1/2 but their should be a framesort section in keybinds.
honestly i do party 1 and 2 for anything not self casted. think dynamic macro addon helps with this as well.
another thing is just @party1 and @party2 for it. its different for me but not quite cause i heal but like i just react to party1 and 2 no matter right.
Sorry, forgot you need to add the framesort modifier, the guide is in the drop down on the addon settings, but should work in either of these ways:
#showtooltip
#FrameSort Frame2
/cast [@frame2] Blessing of Sanctuary;
or
#FrameSort Target, Healer
/cast [@target,help][@healer,exists] Blessing of Sanctuary
I usually run with /cast [target=raid2] Blessing of Sanctuary
(arena matches are technically raids)
I use an addon called dynamic macros for pvp. You don’t have to mess with the sort order of your party frame. The addon gets the player role from the game api and sets a damage partner and healer partner. If its 2s, you have one or the other. You feed a variable into the macro structure for what target you want the spell to work on and then from that point the addon inserts character names into your macros between games as they change.
dynamicmacros owns and the author hates pvp tanks so you know they’re good people
This explains why my macros were failing to differentiate between arenas and battlegrounds.
So true.
I thought it only negatively impacted the non-tank players, though.
i’m not sure of the “it” you’re referring to here
People unwillingly partied with tanks. Like, the addon breaking.
oh, yeah. it’s just a pleasant find
