Fade/Aggro-warning macro - 2006/01/27 03:28
Greetings,
Im interested in making a simple macro (that I havent seen around) that casts Fade and also tells the party that the specific enemy is attacking me without me having to have the enemy targeted.
So for example, I would click the macro and it would cast Fade and say something like:
/p {Burning Blade Reaver] is on me!
Im not sure if commands within a macro can respond to non targeted enemies which are attacking your character. I dont know if i could have figured this out by learning some macro programming, but I figure this would be faster to ask and other people might find this a little useful.
Thanks all.

I like this idea, but I don't know how to do that. If anyone has the brains to make this work, please share!

They nerfed the scripting making it impossible to cast spells on a triggered event so autofade you will not get.
The feature to get a warning on agrogain is built in to CTRA (only works in raids) and can in all probability be modifyed to work in 5-man aswell, however that is not a work that I'm to interested in taking on

I wouldn't want this to automatically cast fade when I get aggro. just 1 button that would cast, say message in group, and include the name of whatever it is I'm trying to escape without having to target the mob hitting me.

Yeah exactly. I think that is what Jeniwyn is saying by a warning on aggrogain (I think). So i guess its impossible to click on fade and for it to know whos attacking me?
I can do this easily:
click macrco
/cast fade
say /p on me
but what im trying to do is:
click macro
/cast fade
say /p [Burning Blade Reaver] is on me
(without the Burning Blade Reaver being my current selected target)
So I guess this is not possible?

Well, the later is possible as well. A function could be made to save te name of the latest mob agroing you (probably demanding that someone in your group/raid has this mob as his target, not 100% about this) and then report this when you push your button.
However as I said, you need to find someone willing to make an addon for this, Im not skilled enough in scripting to make it in a timely manner..
