Add a Friend
General
```
/Friend Character Name
```
Adds a character to your friends list so you can see when they come online without searching for them.
Assist and Announce
General
```
/Select Tank Name
/Skill Select Target's Target
/Group Assisting on [%Target] now.
/Attack
```
Selects the tank, takes their target, tells the group what you are switching to, and opens the attack. The announcement is what keeps a whole group on the same mob.
Assist Another Healer
General
```
/Select [%Variable1]
/Skill Select Target's Target
/Skill Your Heal Name
/Select [%PreviousTarget]
```
Selects the main healer, jumps to whoever they are healing, casts your own heal, then returns you to your previous target. Replace the heal with your own — the surrounding lines do the work.
Assist the Puller
General
```
/Select Puller Name
/Delay 1
/Skill Select Target’s Target
```
Targets the player doing the pulling by name, waits briefly for their target to register, then assists onto it. The delay matters — without it you assist before they have a target.
Assist Your Stored Target
General
```
/Select [%Variable1]
/Skill Select Target's Target
```
Selects the player you saved with the assist macro and then picks up whatever they are attacking. This is how a damage group stays focused on one mob without anyone calling targets out loud.
Change a Channel Leader
General
```
/ChangeChannelLeader [77] [Character Name]
```
Hands channel administration to another character. Worth keeping ready before you log off if you are the one holding the channel open.
Channel Information
General
```
/ChannelInformation
```
Prints the current channel's name, number and member list, which is the quickest way to check whether anyone is actually listening.
Create and Join a Channel
General
```
/CreateChannel [Virakar] [77]
/JoinChannel [Virakar] [77]
```
Creates a custom chat channel and joins it in one press. Legion alliances and siege groups run on these because they survive across groups and alliances.
