Anyone have a good way figured out to mark targets on a controller? Like a primary, secondary, tetriary target that I could tap out real quick when getting ready to fight? I most often play a tank and I hate having to ask people to /assist me as we run into battle. I haven't done any research on it yet, because I haven't had time, but I'm going to get it together tonight and I was hoping to have some idea as I go into it. Do commands like <t> and <bt> work? Or is there a list of all text commands somewhere?

The text commands are toward the bottom of the page.

For controller you may want to practice pressing the Square Button ("X" on 360 controllers) to open up the target subcommand window, which has Mark as qa uick button. With practice this seems to work well for some people. I prefer to make text based User Macros and set them to the Crossbar. Still, the sub-command menu is useful after you understand how to open/close it on the fly.

What I do on ps3 is use the target nearest enemy macro, open the sub menu and select mark, and then press tab for each mob I want mark. If you don't have keyboard then dpad works ok.
