You copy the code, then open Notepad, (Start/Run/type Notepad/OK) paste into Notepad, then Save. Filename - Bandaide.mac.

This file then goes into your /macro folder.

To use- ingame type /mac bandaide then /end when done

 

[Alatyami]

Also, don't forget .... buy Bandages first

I'll have to get name unless someone knows it but I have a weapons that was cheap that summoned bandages. I had so many after 3 battles I was dropping them left and right.

 

[Alatyami]

Ah ... over the years of not playing a melee I forgot about that ...

An item like that would help this macro out.

sounds like your talkin about the embalmers skinning knife drops in ToFS off Cara (the mob that drops key for 4rth floor)

Two improvements:
1. To readily accomodate those who can bind wounds above 70%, replace the hard-coded references to 70 with a variable reference.

2. The macro is written to attempt at least one bind, even if your health is currently at or exceeds the desired threshold. Recommendation: move the health check in the bandaide sub to the top of the sub, immediately after the label. Saves one bandage (yes, I have been down to my last bandage) as well as makes this a candidate for being called from a controlling macro with broader scope (auto-dolotsofstuffduring downtime)

Would you be kind enough to add the choice to autoequip the "Shroud of the Forgotten" cloak, and then unequip it if your health is above 80%, and then megin the bind wound process?

The shroud is an evolving back item that when removed at lower level reduces you h/e/m by 75% of your totals.

Thank you

lmao you necro'd a post from 2005 and I am PRETTY sure the OP is not around to answer your request, but maybe someone else will take the mantle and give it a shot...

Well, I thought I would hunt around first to see if I could find what I needed. I found half of what I wanted, and wasn't smart enough to work out the rest of the answer. I just hoped someone else would be.

That and I didn't notice how old the original post is.

macroquester,

Feel free to modify my bind wound mac, located here.

Yes I revived this five month old thread that was 11 years into the making though!
