Warrior macros

Pure melee tanking with no spells at all. Warriors hold aggro through disciplines and taunt, and have the highest raw mitigation in the game.

16 macros

Ask for a Corpse Run
General
```
/shout Corpse in the zone entrance, can anyone summon?
```
Announces your position and asks for a summon. Corpse recovery is a whole social institution in EverQuest and getting the request right matters.
Assist the Main Assist
General
```
/assist Tankname
/pause 5
/attack on
```
Targets a named player and picks up whatever they are attacking. This is how an EverQuest group stays on one mob, and it predates every other assist system in the genre.
Auto Attack On
General
```
/attack on
```
Explicitly turns melee swinging on rather than toggling it. Using "on" instead of a bare /attack means a macro can never accidentally switch your attack off.
Buff and Announce
General
```
/g Casting group haste, hold your buffs
/pause 10
/cast 3
```
Tells the group what is landing before it lands. In a game where buffs have long durations and limited slots, saying what you are casting avoids overwriting somebody else's work.
Camp Out Safely
General
```
/camp
```
Starts the camp timer, which is the only safe way to leave the game — a hard disconnect leaves your character in the world for a while.
Cast and Pause
General
```
/cast 1
/pause 35
/cast 2
```
The shape of every EverQuest macro. /cast fires the spell in that gem slot, and the pause that follows has to be long enough to cover the cast time or the next line is simply dropped. Remember the number is tenths of a second.
Chain Past the Five-Line Limit
General
```
/cast 1
/pause 35
/cast 2
/pause 35
/social BuffPart2
```
A social can call another social by name, which is how long sequences get built. Keep the chain short — every hop costs you a line and the timing drifts.
Click an Item from a Slot
General
```
/useitem 1
/pause 20
```
Fires the click effect of an item in a numbered inventory slot. Clickable items are a huge part of EverQuest power, and reaching into bags for them mid-fight is hopeless.
Consider Before You Pull
General
```
/consider
```
Checks whether a target is going to kill you before you engage it. Consider is one of the oldest commands in the game and still the correct first move against anything unfamiliar.
Find Players in the Zone
General
```
/who cleric 60 65
```
Lists who is in your zone, and can be filtered by class and level range. The standard way to find a healer when your group loses one at midnight.
Fire a Combat Ability
General
```
/doability 1
```
Runs one of the abilities on your combat skills bar by slot number. This is how Kick, Taunt, Disarm and the rest get into a macro, since they are not spells.
Fire a Discipline
Warrior
```
/g Defensive up
/disc Defensive
```
Uses a defensive discipline and announces it, so the healers know they have a window where you take much less damage and can save their mana.

Every class shares the same macro syntax, so a good idea usually ports across.
