Targeting Help


Clave Dark 5

Recommended Posts

It's been so long I've forgotten how to do this:  Back in the day, I created a button in my powers tray that, when clicked, would target the nearest foe, whoever was clostest to me.  I recall this was simple enough to do but I have no memory of how to anymore, does anyone remember this?

 

Thanks!

There's an option in the keybinds section to bind that specific function (target nearest enemy) to a key or mouse button (I usually use a thumb button on the mouse) but if you want something to click on:

 

 

/macro name "target_enemy_near"

 

 

Just replace name above with whatever you want to appear on the button in your tray. That should work but since the servers are offline right now I can't be sure if I made any mistakes (you can always right click on the macro button and choose edit to make any changes you need)

I find this to be a better General Purpose™ macro/bind/keybind for targeting owing to the fact that it will prioritize targeting any of the special Anti-Kheldian mobs you might encounter so as to eliminate those first before falling back onto targeting whatever Foes are closest to you.

 

/macro name "target_enemy_next$$target_custom_next alive quantum$$target_custom_next alive void$$target_custom_next alive cyst"

 

The above macro is best used for ranged attackers, while the lower one is what you'd want for a melee attacker.

 

/macro name "target_enemy_near$$follow"
