Just wondering, is anyone else abusing their Spirit Beast as a free bandage/food heal? Even when I'm using another pet, I tend to dismiss, call Spirit Beast, Spirit Mend and dismiss to recall the other. All in all it takes maybe 6 seconds, and it's a powerful free heal.

ach, do you have a macro to target yourself with it?

oh the other side that sounds like a great idea I should start doing

<--- soon to be guilty as charged?

hehe, its a pretty good heal really, beats bandages

I use my Spirit Beast to tank Roic Sethekk Halls XD Besides the Raven Lords (the guard trash mobs past Syth) wich hit like tanks, my Zeus can tank them no prob with that healXD

Regarding macros:

#showtooltip Spirit Mend
/target Acherontia
/cast Spirit Mend
/targetlasttarget

Also, I have one that does something like:

/target %f
/cast Spirit Mend
/targetlasttarget

or it casts on %f, I forget which. This is to heal my focus--usually a tank, but it could be a locked down PvP healer, for example.

Either way, you'll want to manually select the Spirit Mend icon (it's in the macro menu), rather than depending on the showtooltip's autofind icon, so that it doesn't show black with a red ? when you have another pet out.

Great thanks!

Np! Mine are VERY simplistic ones. I'm sure there's ones that include like, /cast [target=player] Spirit Mend, or something--but I'm not 100% on them so I just do the simple version

/cast [nomod, target=player] Spirit Mend, [modifier:shift, target=pet] Spirit Mend, [modifier:alt target=focus] Spirit Mend


This is the macro i use. Basically if you hit the key it will target player (you) and heal you. If you hit shift and the key it will heal your pet. Finally if you hit alt and the key it will heal your focus target (tank, pvp partner, whatever you want).

/cast [mod:shift, @pet][mod:alt @focus][@player] Spirit Mend

Does the same job (yes, I realise it's a bit redundant me posting a macro that does EXACTLY the same thing, but I have a weird compulsion to try and simplify/shorten macros!)

Nitpicking: you're missing the comma after "mod:alt"
