Assist buggy?

    After yesterday's patch, I am having to hit my assist key twice before it actually turns on attack. Is anyone else having this issue and does anyone know a way to fix it?

    I always make sure that there is a slight pause after assisting before continuing to the next line in a macro. This accounts for latency and makes things much more reliable.

    /pause 4, /assist main

    Yes, but this is occurring when the only line in the macro is:
    /assist nameoftank

    There's another command that will stop you from attacking the target immediately after assisting. You generally want it turned off so you do not accidentally wake up a mezzed mob.

    /assist off


    Anyway, maybe you will have better luck by doing this:

    /assist nameoftank
    /pause 4
    /assist nameoftank

    That way, if it fails the first time it will try again after 0.4 seconds, saving you from having to press the button a second time.
