Hail All. Currently wanting to try and get my fishers ready for macroing in the sea. I currently have 3 fisher, all with mage, eval, med, fishing. I was wanting to try and setup a macro that would allow 2 of my fishers to: constantly fish, and when a sea serp spawns, to freeze the fishing, and begin casting EB until they were dead, at which point they would resume fishing. My Captain, I will manually direct the boat with, whilst also operating the above macro. I will assume I shall be pausing my captains macro from time to time, with me having to loot/skin etc? Any input would be appreciated. I found a nice guide the other week where someone explained their setup, who does what, who runs what macros etc. And just cant seem to locate it anymore. I have seen the "fishing guide" but that is more of a basic overview of what can be achieved at what levels, and what loot etc Is available not the actual process of fishing serps. Thank you for your time.
I can only speak for myself but my setup works pretty good for attended triple-fishing on my second monitor. I use four different macros, #1 for general fishing, eating small fish, general commands et cetera which will trigger macro #2 should hit points fall below 95. You can experiment with communication crystals on your different toons to try and trigger #2 on all chars should one be under attack but I didn't bother. The second macro is for the ebolt dump, casting ebolt on next enemy target, using meditation should mana be low, I included additional if modifiers for heal and cure pots should a char be poisoned or fall below a certain amount of hp. I also thought about including healing in this macro but after one week of straight fishing I came to the conclusion that this would be overkill. My third macro is just a 'use dagger' one for quick skinning and finally, the fourth one is a restock agent that loots everything you can possibly find on sea creatures. Good luck with the macros, change or add anything you like. Macro #1 Macro #2
Eugen, thanks for the reply. If I run macro 1, as above, on all of my character simultaneously, will they all shout out boating commands? Or are they typed in manually as you use the boat, which triggers the macro? Thank you
They will all shout out commands, if you want you could create another macro just for your two passengers without the commands.
Eugen, I don't suppose you will be online in around 2 hours, so I can PM once in game, to see if I have any success? Again, thank you.
Sorry about that! I put down the second macro as #3 by mistake, the real third macro is just a use dagger by type kind of thing to harvest leather and destroy the corpses afterwards.
Thx Gonna try this out today. Been having alot of issues trying to put together a boat fishing macro myself so this is appreciated and hopefully works as well for me as it does for you.
