Raise Ally Macro

[I stand in fire]

Hi, I looked all over and I can't find raise ally macro that does what I want it to.

I would like a macro that:

- casts RA on the closest dead party/raid member.

- that doesn't require me changing targets

- (optional) Then announces, "Ceberus casts Raise Ally on <<johndoe>>" in party or raid chat (/yell would work fine to) only after a successful cast.

I'm pretty sure the "closest" part does not work. Easiest would be a mouseover-macro, and a sendchatmessage script to whisper your target.

There was a macro that used to select the first dead person in your Party/Raid, but that's the best you're going to get.

Now if only I could remember what that macro was D:

Set your RaidFrames to show you who's in Range and who's not.

This is what i use:

#showtooltip Raise Ally
/cast [@mouseover,exists,help,dead][] Raise Ally
/script if UnitIsDead("mouseover") then SendChatMessage("You're not allowed to rest. Raise Ally!", "WHISPER", nil, UnitName("mouseover")) end

Not sure if you need the bold []. Delete them if not working as intended.

Then simply mouse over the dead person in range in your RaidFrames and push the button. No target switching required.

Or use this one:

#showtooltip raise ally
/stopcasting
/targetnearestally
/cast raise ally
