Targeting Macro ?

I've just started PvP'ing and its pretty fast and chaotic, lol. Is it possible to do a macro that targets the closest enemy to you and fires off an attack. So a 1 click target / attack. I find that the time it takes me to hit tab then fire off a power they always zip by me out of range and I lose them. TY.


Over the hills and through the woods.

If this is true, I'd suggest looking for gym membership, not a targeting macro.

To answer your question, no targeting binds do not work in PvP, so get used to tab tab tab tab tab.....

IMO, the best way to do this is get a mouse with some side/thumb buttons. I have a logitech mx 510 (I think). You can do this in the options menu in game. I binded target next enemy (Tab by default) to the top thumb button and target nearest to the bottom thumb button. It's VERY useful in zone/arena with a high volume of people. Target nearest is great for counterattacking quickly, or re-targeting after being confused or placated.

every year or less someone asks this. The answer is if there was a pvp macro auto target, team pvp especially in arena would be a button mashing fest with no skills involved. Its also a reason why the league won't allow more than 2 sharks at a time since the devs won't fix random OP'd powers in pvp.

They're just REALLY REALLY slow about it. More of them should ACTUALLY pvp to see what the hell is going on in thier game because sharks are pretty ridic
