lf vengeance macro/bind

hey all,
my dark/dark defender is looking for a way, preferable all in one stroke, to target a dead teammate, execute vengeance when in range, while also telling that same dead target to stay there and target a mob, AND execute howling twilight at that dead target's target.
I should also mention that i have a G110 logitech keyboard....sadly i still have no idea how to start this bind/macro.


Also, if u should know of any usefull macro's/binds for a (mainly teambased) dark/dark defender, i would accept them gratefully

A macro like that flat out CANNOT be done with the game engine. To do it with something like the keyboard you have, you'd have to set it up to execute the commands one at a time, with appropriate delays. Unfortunately, I can't give you step by step instructions, since my gaming device is from a different company, so the instructions are doubtlessly completely different.

I don't think there is a mechanism in the game for targeting a "dead" teammate. As for the rest, what Roderick said.

powexec_name Vengeance$$targetcustomnear friend defeated teammate may work. I use a variation which doesn't use the "teammate" bit and fires off a rez power instead.

On a logitech board, you will want to edit the macro (or maybe use the block text option I noticed recently, haven't use it yet) and add a small (I use a 25 milsec or .025 second) delay after the slash. The game otherwise just catches the "/" if you do not already have the hat window highlighted. Something that was first noticed around issue 12 I think.

Don't forget to "enter" while making then macro either.

making 4 separate binds makes sense, as i can easily make a macro with those on a logitech board.
Just have to test if the dead teammate target works,
I would start out with sending the tell, execute vengeance, then a separate bind for target nearest enemy + execute howling twilight. So 3 new binds and combine those in a Gkey macro. Sounds doable to me. Thanks all, will come back with test results

EDIT : just come to think of it: most of the times i hand target a dead teammate, its really hard to find him too, is there a bind/macro to go to him? (Dont know if "follow" works from far)

Doesnt look like i can make it work with one bind. As stated above, sometimes it targets a dead teammate; sometimes it doesnt; it never executes the vengeance.
This is what i did
/bind numpad1 "follow$$targetcustomnear defeated teammate$$powexec_name vengeance$$targetcustomnear enemy alive$$powexec howling twilight"
and this is what happens WHEN it does accept the dead target command
follow and then immediately execute howling twilight.
Im thinking to make two binds and make a logitech Gkey macro of those two
/bind numpad1 "follow$$targetcustomnear defeated teammate$$powexec_name vengeance
and
/bind numpad2 "targetcustomnear alive enemy$$powexec_name howling twilight"
maybe i should even insert a /tell in between those two binds to have enough delay or something?

If you want to use a G-Key you would basically want to type this while recording a macro :

/targetcustomnear defeated teammate
<press enter>
/powexec_name vengeance
<press enter>
/targetcustomnear enemy alive
<press enter>
/powexec "howling twilight"
<press enter>

and after you make it add that very slight delay (default is half a second, edit it from "500" to "25") after each "/" and it should work fine. If I can remember I'll see if I can't get some help testing it out to tonight on my D3

Also, due how the commands are read vs executed the binds are essentially read from right to left. So your attempt at a one-key would have it using howling twig light first.
