Healing and Combat skill at the same time
Would it be possible/worth it to train a fighting skill and healing on a trapped NPC at the same time?

Re: Healing and Combat skill at the same time
it would be fine, once you get high enough healing to cure you'd want to switch though. It would work for lower skill. It's also a lot faster to heal someone else, which means faster skill gain, 6 seconds vs 15 seconds.

Re: Healing and Combat skill at the same time
So I have been trying this today, and for some reason after a few minutes I just stop swinging on the NPC, not sure why. I have to attack him again and run away to get him to stop hitting me again, very annoying.

Not that I can see, only 1 other house is even on the screen. I turned my bandage macro from 20 seconds to 60 seconds and so far it seems to be working OK for now.
edit: Nope it quit again. I seem to stop swinging right when I tried to apply a bandage when the NPC was at full health, I am not sure if that is the cause or a coincidence.

Re: Healing and Combat skill at the same time
if you hire a npc and say "all guard me" then attack him he should beat on you till the server goes down....
after that you heal away
after that you heal away

Re: Healing and Combat skill at the same time
I was able to replicate the problem several times. If I tried to apply a bandage and he was full health 2 times in a row, I would stop trying to hit him. As long as the pause on my macro was long enough for him to actually be hurt before I tried to heal him (was a lot easier when my skill was higher), everything was fine.

whlie macroing my magery/spellresist up on a tank mage, i used a healer char form another account,,, started at 50 healing, made a heal target/anatomy macro to go along with the check health cast EB/FS on the mage... my mage is at 95 resist and the healer is at 79.1 so its possible to raise healing with just healing to a respectable lvl... and cheaper than poison imo. but multi tasking is for sure the way to go to save time in the long run
