now that there is a full book you can devote to whm only macros i'd maybe rethink that. might be interesting to have a set up that uses your fist 6 macro spots for p1-5 and a <me>, for each different cure lvl.
i did the above when i had limited space to work with from all my other jobs macros taking up lots of space...  doesn't it figure? we should have known the devil is a female... it seems so obvious now Last edited by assumedvigilance : 05-10-2008 at 05:48 AM. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 05-10-2008, 07:29 AM | #17 (permalink) | | Necro Slayer Super Moderator Join Date: Nov 2004 Posts: 3,922 Style: Light - Version 6 My Mood: Thanks: 83 Thanked 349x in 218 Posts Gil: 3,938 Bank: 63,243 Total Gil: 67,182 Donate | Re: Macros Originally Posted by assumedvigilance |

/p MP = <mpp> - <mp> {Please check it!}
/wait 1
/p <me> {Healing!} <call11>
People just do not pay attention to your mp status, I only use it when my mp is low but it does help. For some endgame events I need to switch it to /l though because of multiple alliances. If the puller is in the other ally and asks how mp is in ls, its good to be able to quickly post it there. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 05-10-2008, 07:34 AM | #18 (permalink) | | Loaded With Sodium Oracle of Knowledge Join Date: Jul 2005 Posts: 7,947 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 445 Thanked 1,577x in 996 Posts Gil: 3,092 Bank: 20,025 Total Gil: 23,117 Donate | Re: Macros I just type messages like that out.

/p {> {White Mage} <} {> {notice} <} {> <mpp> <mp> <}
It's pretty and it gets the point across. This is use when I have like 40 mp left. And TGM's right, people don't pay enough attention to the WHM's MP. Put a call in it if people are being stupid. People hate call macros, but at least it'll get their attention and they'll stop freaking pulling!

I usually use <call11> or <call10> for my macros. I probably should use a more annoying macro to get people's attention better. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 05-10-2008, 08:04 AM | #21 (permalink) | | ~forevernewb~ Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: UK, Notts.
