The Lord of the Rings Online · class
Warden macros
Builds attacks by chaining gambits from three basic builders. The most mechanically demanding class in the game, and the one players most wish they could macro.
21 macros
/assistPicks up whatever your target is attacking. Put it on a quickslot and a fellowship can stay on one mob without anyone calling targets aloud.
/alias add home /travel BreeGives a short name to a command you type often. Afterwards, typing /home runs whatever you attached. Aliases are per-character and save automatically when you log out cleanly.
/shortcut 62 /saluteDrops an emote onto a bar slot. Roleplay kinships build whole bars of these, and it is the most common everyday use of the shortcut command.
/musicSwitches your character into music mode so you can play an instrument. LOTRO has a full ABC notation music system, and this is the first step into it.
/f Pulling now /raid Stack behind the bossPosts to your fellowship with /f or the whole raid with /raid. Raid leaders live in /raid, and knowing the short forms saves a click on every call.
/lffMarks you as available so fellowship finder searches pick you up. Easy to forget you have left it on.
/followAuto-follows whoever you have selected until you move. Middle-earth is very large and travelling behind someone who knows the route is a real convenience.
/alias listPrints every alias on the current character. The quickest way to work out why a command is doing something unexpected.
/play songname.abcPlays a notated tune from your Music folder. Kinship bands coordinate whole concerts this way, with each player running the same command on a different part.
/playlist songname.abc syncSynchronises playback across a fellowship so a band starts together. Without the sync flag every player starts on their own keypress and the result is chaos.
/k Anyone up for a skirmish?Posts to your kinship. /k is the short form, and it is the channel most LOTRO players actually spend their evenings in.
/shortcut 61 /followPlaces any chat command onto a numbered quickslot so it can be clicked or key-bound like a skill. Slots run left to right and then down through your bars, starting at 1.
/alias remove homeDeletes an alias you no longer want. Worth knowing because aliases persist across sessions and an old one can quietly shadow a real command.
/rollRolls a random number and announces it to your fellowship. Still how most kinships split a rare drop that nobody wants to argue over.
/ui layout save raid /ui layout load raidWrites your current interface arrangement to a named layout and loads it back. Useful for keeping separate layouts for raiding and for questing.
/showquickslotbar 3Shows or hides a numbered quickslot bar. Wardens and Beornings, who need very different bars in different stances, get the most out of this.
/target BogberethTargets a specific creature or player by name. Partial names work, which makes it the fastest way to pick a named enemy out of a crowded landscape.
/combat logging onTurns on the detailed combat log that external parsers read. Off by default, and the first thing to check when your parse shows nothing.
/stuckFrees a character caught in terrain by moving you to the nearest safe point. LOTRO has a great deal of complicated geometry and this comes up more than you might expect.
/tell Playername Invite when you have a slot /r On my waySends a private message, and /r replies to whoever contacted you last. Both accept partial names with tab completion.
Other LOTRO classes
Every class shares the same macro syntax, so a good idea usually ports across.
