    Which I totally agree is a Bad Thing. There is a special place for those who AFK macro their way through games...and it's not a good place.

    Myself, at most I'll say:
    RA in 5
    wait a sec
    4321 go!!

    That's kinda what I've been doing. Just have gotten yelled at a few times in the past couple days when someone fails to come over and subsequently gets in a bad situation. "Well you didn't buff me." "I tried, you didn't make it over on time." "You should have given more warning." (polite version of the conversation. )

    Not a noob to the game, but to the forums, and to macros in CoH...

    First, from reading the various macro guides, I have yet to find mention of any sort of pause type function that would allow me to delay part of the macro. If there is no command like that, I'm probably SOL on my idea. If there is one and I've missed it I'm going to feel like an idiot, but I'll thank you for teaching me.

    Many times in groups I've found it difficult to organize folks to gather around my Empathy Defender for Recovery and Regeneration Auras. What I would like to do is macro something to the effect of:

    /g Gather around me for Health & Regen Auras. In 5...
    one second
    /g 4
    one second
    /g 3
    one second
    /g 2
    one second
    /g 1
    one second
    Then I hit the Auras.

    Right now the only solution I can think of from reading about binds and macros is to bind the first statement ("Gather around...") to a key, then do a countdown manually. But that is cumbersome, especially as we're all busy running a mission.

    Any thoughts on how to accomplish this are appreciated.
