Mouse Over Macro
Quick question I have a mouse over macro and it seems to work. But I am wanting to click on the target and it heal. Is there a way of doing this? ATM I have it where if I hit a key while I am mouse over it heals. Below is the macro the only part I cant get to work is when I click it heal. I have only been playing for 2 days so I am sure this noob mistake any help would be appreciated.



The Macro

/micon "Cure"
/merror off
/ac "Cure" <mo>
/ac "Cure"

first, /merror isnt a thing, if you want the action failed error to not display that would be /actionerror off

Your last line doesnt do anything, it either needs a <t> to heal whatever you have targetted if you didnt mouseover, or <me> to heal yourself if you didnt do a mouse over

Ive never used mouseover, I've heard its slower and you can miss casts because of the GCD, I just click names in my party list and press my healing spell numbers on my hot bars

At least in my case, almost everything you said here was wrong. Those types of macros are exactly what I use for MO-healing.

For reference, my SCH macro is;

/micon "Physick"
/merror off
/ac "Physick" <mo>
/ac "Physick"

And it works exactly as it should.

And if I remove the /merror off line, I start getting error messages in chat log (and none with the line). The plain /ac "Physick" (or similar heal spell) last line either heals a target or yourself if no-one targeted, no <me> or <t> required. As for the last part, that is probably accurate, I have occasionally healed myself with some spells with the Mouseover macro instead of the target hovered over, so it's somewhat reliant on ping/lag and gcd stuff.

I've actually seen people saying you should use the <me> tag for crafting macros as well, and I'm like "why tho?" 'cause none of my macros use that and work fine, to me it seems skills default to be cast on yourself if used by their lonesome.
