Am I really the only one

Whilst I'm erecting PFF and Temperature Protection; is there actualy anywhere IN game that says this useful piece of information?

You know...so people don't have to read the whole PvP thread to get this?

If you mean dragging and dropping the heavy control icons, then not that I know of. I just ran across it myself a couple of weeks ago by accident... kinda looked at the icons, wondered if I could drag and drop them seeing as they looked similar to the MM power icons, and tried it. It's nothing huge since they do the same things in the pet window anyway, but if you spend a lot of time there or find the controls a little unintuitive, it makes them a bit more accessible.

As far as macros, I think I remember seeing some basic stuff in the Help section of the game Menu, but I doubt there's anything specific about MM or Heavy macros.

Just to clarify, do you mean you can set up your own macros for them? Such as you can with basic MM pets?

Because that's pretty nifty.

Only thing you need with a heavy is imo
/macro goto "petcom_all goto aggressive"
which is used to put the heavy close to the turrets so it will use its mega-attack.. Also since pathfinding with follow and attack is poor, I have noticed that goto-command works best for solving pathfinding problems.

An "Attack my target" macro is also very important imo - if I'm jumped I like to focus my Heavy's attention on my attacker asap rather than have it keep working on a turret/Arachnos boss while I'm being debuffed and whittled down.

You can get that by dragging the icon from the pet window to your power bar, though. Also, the attack-my-target causes more pathfinding issues than goto.

Sorry yes, by macro I meant using the dragged down button from the pet window.

I generally just use the "follow me" and the "attack my target" buttons. My scrapper can handle some hits from the turrets so I generally use the follow me command to drag the Heavy into melee range. I do the same against the Arachnos bosses. Follow me does cause pathing issues sometimes but I'm not going to die if I take a couple of extra seconds to move about. For fighting villains I much prefer the attack my target command as it's a lot faster than having to select a place for the Heavy to move aggressively to like you would have to using your macro. Once I get my ill/ff to RV levels I'll probably use your goto macro for turrets though - it looks like a safer option for a squishy.
