macros and what not

Postby joojoo1975 » Thu Apr 29, 2010 11:00 pm

Ok this may by newbish of me to even ask.


but do peeps use macros. I know in some games the yare outlawed and looked down upon, and in some of the forums posts people accuse one another of it.


I mean i guess it could happen, but i dunno, it's above my understanding, but then again my understanding isnt the sharpest or greatest ;)

Yes, people use them. Now more than ever. Before the new combat system and the nerf of animal spawning rates and lp people just were hunting 24/7 to grind lp, now they macro.

They are usually kept a secret. Also you shouldn't thrive to get one, since macroing is an abuse of bad game mechanics. I didn't succumb to the temptation although in my town some of the best macros for this game are used. I think it is kinda lame and boring as well. When I open my H&H client I wanna play and not let my computer run for some stupid number going up ^^
Don't get me wrong, I love lp and I usually abuse every ingame mechanic I can to get ahead of others, but macros...hard to explain, I just don't wanna use them.

When i used to play Shadowbane, you had all kinds of macros and stuff, but those were easy, make a char that could do tons of AOE dmg, and then amke another and use the AOE char to blast away, and the other to collect loot.

on this game, i dunno how.



Also, how does one raise perception(to see the WWW) if not by carrots. I've always wondered that, considering when a new world starts, i Assume that nobody get preffered treatment(kinda like a vetran grabbag and stuff) but then again i dunno.

And if you don't see it on a wiki or post, fish for plaice on new-moon nights or thereabouts.

Which are also easily obtainable without having found WWW in the first place.
