You don't have to be in that exact spot. There are lots of plateau's you can get onto.

For Compassion:
If you want to get the most out of your not-afk efforts ... set the macro to target snakes, then spiders, and lastly scorpions. This way you aren't taming scorps that give crappy gains and then kill the spiders and snakes that would have given you better gains.

Also, it helps to have a character hidden on the one-tile-wide path to the shrine. This will prevent something from wandering on to it and killing you.

Finally, don't forget to look around to see if you can find an urk to pay tribute to before you go afk. Zat zat shynees is worth not getting clomped.
How would you set that into a macro?

Target the specific mob in your macro, then right click that line and change it to target by type. The macro will then target all of that type of mob, instead of an individual one.

This is a good method that does not require you to use "target random grey" suggested in the OP. It is a more fine tuned way to run your taming macro, however to get this to work unattended might prove to be difficult.

I'm thinking you would need three macros bound to three hot keys (for recording later)....

Macro - Snake...

Use skill, taming
Target snake by type
pause for skill cooldown
loop

Macro - Spider...

Use skill, taming
Target spider by type
pause for skill cooldown
loop

Macro - Scorpion...

Use skill, taming
Target scorpion by type
pause for skill cooldown
loop

Then record a macro that play's those macros using the hot keys you bound them to and add in "if" statements....

If - system message - target is out of range
Play Macro "Snake"
End If
If - system message - target is out of range
Play Macro "Spider"
End If
If - system message - target is out of range
Play Macro "Scorpion"
End If

In theory this should work well if you play it after gathering a large group of mobs in front of your tamer...

It may also suck and not work well/need more added to it.

You can go under Hotkeys -> Macros and instead of recording the hotkey, just hit "Execute Selected" while having the new macro record.

I figured it out. Its really easy actually.

Use skill taming
Target snake

if no item
use skill
target scorp

if no item
use skill
target spider

Macro will tame all the snakes first, than tame all the scorpions, than tame all the spiders.

Dont forgot to switch to target by type and not absolute target.

That's part of the message razor returns when no items (in this case mobs) are in visible range of that type.

Do a system msg with no item. as long as there are no mobs of that type on screen it will try and tame next type. If there s a mob of that type on screen but out of range it will brake the macro till you move
