/macro targ say "$target"
If you were targeting a Fallen Gunner, you would shout into whatever channel you are currently in: Fallen Gunner
Of course you can extend this, say like:
/macro targ say "Bow before me $target!"
Now, if you were targeting Requim whenever you clicked the button, you will say into your active channel: Bow before me Requim!
Two basic ways to call a target in team chat
/macro Call Team Target is $target
/macro call creates the macro button named "Call"
Team lets you know where you are going to say it
$target will paste the name of your current target in team chat along with the rest of the message.
It can also be helpful to make a Macro to let your team know when someone is phased, or at least one letting your team know when to pull off. Of course its much easier on something like Vent, but for random casual zone stuff it works.
/macro hib team $target is Phased/Hibered
/macro new team Disengage Target
The other way to call a target rather than hitting a macro would be binding a key to it. Something like :
/bind t team $target is target
So you only need to hit T rather than having a macro take up a space in your tray.
Hey just wanted to know how to call targets in team chat with out all the typeing LOL!! do I have to make a bind or macro?
