Why Macros belong in TOR.

When you take into consideration server latency, the ability queue, ideal conditions, and IDEAL, PROVEN human reaction times, my statement is not conjecture or speculation.

It is still implausible for a player to manage more than a single opposing player effectively taking these variables into account.

As to your first response, I find that those in opposition to macro implementation are not responding to, or as there responses evince, taking into account many of the statements I've made. ("Dodging", if you will).

Merely the act of having to drop your current target, use an interrupt, and retarget your previous target will completely inhibit your ability to manage such a scenario in a reasonable manner.

I will, again, reiterate. I am advocating for two functions, primarily. Mouseover support (to increase the feasibility of healing a large group of players effectively while maintaing some enjoyment) and Focus macros (to allow a player to be effective against two players, particularly a damage dealer and a healer, even remotely possible).

There's no point to put in freaking macros in a game, jesus christ it's so stupid I don't know where to begin.

+ you listed no advantages to it whatsoever other than that WoW players would adapt better to this game?

It's not impossible and I do it all the time. Attack X person, see healer starting to cast, hit tab, alt + x to mez, hit ` to select closet target again, burn first person to dead, then ` to select the other target and kill them.

No macro's needed, just skill.

Hi,

I am sorry to post here about this, but I have not seen anything in the 'upcoming changes' which reflects the addition of macro's to the game system.

I was just wondering why you are chosing not to add them? There are simply too many buttons atm when tanking ect, your spamming a heap of buttons waiting on cooldowns generally between 2 buttons for each skillset (sunder/normal hit) (a couple big hitters) being able to join just those two alone would save on effort so I can bring the other buttons down the keybinding list and easier to use reactive moves.

I understand the hardcores and purists will shout this down as I am a noob ect, but in my old age and after 6 or so years of wow macro's, they are a convinence much like dungeon finder I would find quite enjoyable.

Thank you
