all targeted?

neerdeth · 08-20-12, 08:48 PM

I'm looking for an addon that tell whether all raid dps is on the same target.

I don't know of any dedicated addons for that purpose, but you could use any of the numerous tooltip addons that show you which group members are targeting the unit (eg. mouse over a unit nobody should be hitting, and see who is targeting it), or a combat meter addon showing damage taken by NPCs.

Or, here is a macro that will tell you which raid members are targeting a unit they can attack that is not the same as your target:

Code:

/run local g, n, t, u = UnitGUID, UnitName, "target"; for i = 1, GetNumRaidMembers() do u = "raid"..i; if g(u..t) ~= g(t) and UnitCanAttack(u, u..t) then print(n(u), "is targeting", n(u..t)) end end

If you want to use it in parties, change GetNumRaidMembers to GetNumPartyMembers and "raid" to "party".

MoP version:

Code:

/run local g, n, t, b, u = UnitGUID, UnitName, "target", IsInRaid() and "raid" or "party"; for i = 1, GetNumGroupMembers() do u = b..i; if g(u..t) ~= g(t) and UnitCanAttack(u, u..t) then print(n(u), "is targeting", n(u..t)) end end

You'll get false positives if you have an offtank holding another mob, or something, but it shouldn't report healers since it checks to make sure that the target is attackable before reporting.

There are also tooltip addons that display the target of your mouseover unit (ie, you could mouseover your raid frames to see who/what they have targeted).

That macro doesn't work, can you explain why?

Wow, that's a bit like 'I got in the space shuttle and pushed the 'launch' button and nothing happened. Can you explain why?'

You may need to provide a little more information before anyone is going to be able to even start trying to help you with your problem.

Make sure you read the whole post, and aren't using the WoW 4.x macro in WoW 5.x, or vice versa (I don't know what region you play in, or what patch is current there). Otherwise, yeah, be more specific. Do you get an error message? Do you have error messages enabled under Interface Options > Help? Do you have BugSack or Swatter installed and enabled? Were you in a party or a raid? Were you in a dungeon, a battleground, an arena, or sitting in the auction house? Are you sure any group members were targeting something that (a) was not the same thing you were targeting, and (b) they could attack? etc.
