[Guide] AFKING AV for HONOR / XP using Macros

[MabusPwns]

You need a logitech g15 in order to do this, or any other

"keyboard/mouse" input devices that allows macro repeation, not a physical

program that WoW could scan for.


I use my logitech g15 keyboard and four macros in WoW to AFK AV... I've been

able to do 71-80 in 40 hours of sitting in AV. Along with being able to

accumulate up to 200k honor in 4 days~.

The prerequisites:
- Preform AV Enabler (curse.com has this)
- SSpvp3 (curse.com has this)
- A logitech g15 keyboard or any other input device that runs macros with out a

program running.

Creating the Macros:
You will need 4 macros to afk AV properly and not be stuck in the cave getting

reported.

Macro 1:

/script PreformAVEnabler_Queue(1)

Macro 2:

/script AcceptBattlefieldPort(1,1)

Macro 3:

/cast [nomounted] Stormpike Battle Charger

Macro 4:

/stopmacro [target=focus, dead]
/targetfriend
/follow

What each macro does:

Macro 1: This will queue you up for AV, you can also replace the number

1, with any other number to queue up for other battlegrounds as well. The reason

I use preform AV's queue macro, is its a lot more stable, and you don't have to

open up your battlegrounds tab and choose a selection first, which you would

have to do if you used the alternative macro /script JoinBattlefield(0)

Macro 2: This simply accepts the queue and physically joins the

battleground, this doesn't need to be changed for other battlegrounds, it'll

accept all.

Macro 3: This macro mounts you up when you aren't mounted only, if you

are currently mounted, it won't dismount you when the macro is pressed again...

a lot better than pressing you mount button and being dismounted over and over

again.

Macro 4: The granddaddy of all the macros, this macro simply targets the

nearest friendly and /follows them, this is what gets you out of the cave and on

to the battlefield (sometimes though you'll end up being stuck outside the cave,

but those times are really low) It's also been made to ONLY follow people if

your focus is Alive, you want to set yourself up as your focus (/focus

playername). The reason I added this part of the macro was, when you died and

ended up at the spirit resser, there was a small chance that you would end up

following people when you were a ghost, so adding this part of the macro allowed

me to only follow people when I was alive. Thus solving that problem.

Setting it up:
Next you are going to want to place the four macros in order of 1,2,3,4 on your

hotbar, and assign them all hotkeys, I simply did f9-f12.

Then you simply open up your macroing functions of you logitech g15 keyboard, or

any other input device, and have it press f9 f10 f11 f12, and set it to repeat.

And enjoy queuing up for AV and not being stuck in the cave!

Bonus:
Setting it up with Logitech g15:
1) Open up the Logitech G-series Key Profiler.
2) Click one of the six G keys (g1-g6)
3) Click assign macro -> Create New Macro
4) Give it a name like ANTI AFK
5) Make sure to check record delays inbetween
6) Start recording you pressing f9 f10 f11 f12
7) Myself personally, I waited 3 seconds in between each button, so it would go

f9 (2 second delay) f10 (2 second delay) f11 (2 second delay) f12
Adding the delays allowed me to only press the follow button every 6 seconds,

so you aren't constantly targeting friendlies and following them every second,

this allows it to run smoother and not get stuck in the cave targeting AFKers

around you.
9) Click okay
10) Now click the button you assigned it to, and go to Repeat Options -> Check

Toggle, this means you press the button once, and it'll repeat till you press it

again
11) You're all done!

That's how simple it is to afk AV and other battlegrounds, alot safer than using

a program / bot. Simply because a) the logitech g15 keyboards are legal to use

within reason and b) you're not setting up any flags by using a program that wow

can detect and scan in your processes...

Now I am not saying this is 100% safe, you could still get reported for AFKing

and abusing the battlegrounds, but from what I've read about people using g15

keyboards, they were only suspended for at most 3 hours... plus the way I have

it all set up and macrod, I have not gotten reported once, as it looks just like

your actual in the game on the field, and people don't honestly care or notice..

they usually only like to notice people in the cave. I've used it for over 2

weeks now on other characters and have been safe since then... but like all

afking methods, there's a risk involved, and im not garunteeing 100% safety!

Happy AFKing!

This looks like a good idea.

Like I said over about 4 days I gained 200k honor, and went from 71-80 in about 40 hours.

This sounds sweet, I have a logitech G15 though my bot is working too good to try this but knowing the power of this keyboard I am sure this will work, gj

(Btw I know this is not completely new but your setup is nice)

+2rep for you =)

[ToughCat]

damm i knew i should have bought a g15 instead of saithek eclipse :P

[Eski]

So it mounts you.. But will it mount you IN the cave? I don't see where it runs you out of the cave.

[Teryon]

I AFK'ed AV lvls 61-80 standing on a tower or at GY, buffing myself with autohotkey to avoid AFK. Seriously, nobody noticed or complained that I wasn't doing anything during all this time.

But people will more likely notice sometimes if someone is on /follow, and start running in circles to see if you are AFK.

So why run around?

[phreec]

EXACTLY what I were looking for. I've been using my G11 with SSpvp3 to leech, but not run around and shit. Thanks alot 3x+Rep!

TY vm.......

Instead of doing

Macro 1:
Code:
/script PreformAVEnabler_Queue(1)

You could just do

Macro 1:

/script JoinBattlefield(1)
/script RequestBattlegroundInstanceInfo(1)

Then you don't need the PreformAVEnabler addon

That is the reason I got the preformavenabler addon, half the time the joinbattlefield script would just not work for what ever reason that may be after using it for hours..

Ah, thank you for explaining.

Wonder why this happens tho since PreformAV only seems to execute this code hmhm

Maybe it's detecting when it doesn't work and uses some fix?

[TimmeH32]

I have a G15, on my keyboard settings the repeat options are: None, While Pressed & Toggle.

I am assuming Toggle is the same as check?

+rep btw.

Is there a certain setting I am missing, =/ It won't repeat.

Anyone? tested the profile in the Macro manager. Repeats fine there. Has WoW patched this or something?? Will not repeat at all. Works once, and it doesn't seem to notice that it has a delay either..

[phreec]

I think this should be moved to Elite so it wont spread.
I did this yesterday and there were two of us doing this........ And we both followed eachother so we just stood outside the cave staring into each other LOL
