5. Macros
Most people will tell you that looping macros are a BAD thing in PvP, but you need to remember that these people are also NOT MCHs. Ok now make sure your toolbar has 2 rows cause ur gonna need to make 10 macros/hotkeys. F1-F4 are my main attack keys, shift+F5-F8 are where the looping tellpet macros will go, F5 is where my healing macro goes, and F12 is where my looping headshot3 macro goes. trust me when I say using a pause of 0.1 or no pause at all in a looping tellpet macro is a bad thing. Ive lagged my machine so bad from running all these macros without a pause that I actually got the "Connection to SWG lost" message before. Not only does it cause lag it also backs up your pets combat queue and makes swapping between specials difficult. Now lemme tell you what to put in the macro text.
Here is the format for writing the macros
-------------------------------------------------------
MacroName (all notes will go in ( ) )
macro text
-------------------------------------------------------
PeaceStand (goes in the F1 box)
/dump;
/ui action clearCombatQueue;
/peace;
/stand;
/healdamage;
PostDown (goes in the F2 box)
/dump (keeps you from stacking already running macros and lagging out your machine)
/ui action toolbarSlot11;
/tellpet come; (the pets follow me comand)
/ui action toolbarSlot16;
/ui action toolbarSlot17;
/ui action toolbarSlot18;
StuningStrike (goes in the F3 box)

/ui action toolbarSlot10;

trick (goes in the F11 box)
/tellpet trick1; (the pets trick1 command)
/macro trick; (no pause is ok for this 1 macro)
HeadShot3
/headshot3;
/pause .8; (sometimes lag will cause you to autoattack in between headshots so this keeps 2 headshots queued at all times)
/macro HeadShot3;
dump (goes in the Shift+F4 box)
/dump;
DizzyBlind (goes in Shift+F5 box)
/tellpet dizzy; (the pets dizzy command)
/pause 1;

/tellpet intim; (the pets intimidate command)
/pause 1;
/macro IntimPoison;
Stun (goes in Shift+F7 box)
/tellpet stun (the pets stunning strike command)
/pause 1;
/macro stun;
Cripple (goes in the Shift+F8 box)
