My Favorite Macro's (And Yours)

You never see much here about one of the most usefull items a Twink can have in their inventory.... A good macro. I use 2 macros on my Shaman Wickèdways (Shoulders and trinket on my other Shaman ATM)



Wicked.jpg




The first macro that I'm going to list is for a single button push to drop multiple totems. You have to push the button more than once (for the ammount of totems you wish to drop), but it sure beats fumbling around to hit multiple keys.



/castsequence Searing Totem,Earthbind Totem



The second macro that I'm going to list self casts Gift of the Narru on myself.



/Target Wickèdways

/Cast Gift Of The Naaru




I'm hoping to get others to list their most usefull macro's to help other twinks that may have not considered this as a option for better game play in the Battlegrounds.

Shaman Macros - Arena Junkies ...have a look for some shaman macros.



and the sinister macro needs a startattack like:

#showtooltip Hemorrhage

/startattack

/cast Hemorrhage



edit:

i would post some of my macros, but it is a lot.



the one i really like is the "OhShit" one^^

/use Talisman of Arathor

/cast Lifeblood

they are both on a 3min timer...extendable by potions/stones
 
/e has marked you as Away From Keyboard. To refute this claim, please type "/afk off" now or you will be kicked from the Battleground.
 
warlock:



/cast [nochanneling] drain life



same for health funnel and drain soul, lets me spam the button without resetting the channel.



/cast sacrifice

/cast fire shield



doesnt really classify as a macro imo, but one button for both pet skills



shaman:



/cast [target=focus] wind shock



that's the only one I use ^^
 
i use this one all the time on my night elf hunter

Code:
/spit

clicking???



Haha! I knew this would come up! I keybind very few abilitys on my twinks, yes I'm a "noobish clicker" as some of the elitests would call it. I have never had trouble playing with this method, and anyone that has faced me on the BG would tell you that I have no trouble at all using my character in this way. I may try to fully keybind some time soon, but honestly I suck so bad at typing that I think it will have a negitive affect on my game play. Keep in mind people ... just because something dose'nt work for you , dose'nt mean that it will not work for others.

I click some of my abilities as well, I am sort of a hybrid clicker but I never keyboard turn. Here is a good example:



Imagine you are a pally carrying the flag across midfield with a healer following you. You hold the "w" key and look on both sides and behind you to see if you are being followed. You see a hunter approaching you and your healer, surely if the hunter is any good they will Conc shot the healer. You see the purple trail of the Conc shot heading towards the healer and becuase you are paying attention you have targeted the healer and Clicked "Hand of Freedom" (during all this you are still running toward your base).



Don't really have any good Pally macro's, A /castsequence to blow all CD's might be useful but I prefer to use the abilities depending on how much damage I'm taking.
 
Ok a few from both my pally and rogue..



First is a handy sap macro.. good for when you restealth and opponent has pvp trinket down, it will sap and do a melee hit without breaking sap leaving you unstealthed but having done 100~ damage and then you restealth garrote etc. (need sub spec basically)



#showtooltip Sap

/console targetNearestDistance 10,000000

/targetenemy [noharm][dead]

/console targetNearestDistance 41.000000

/cast [harm,nodead] Sap

/startattack

/stopattack



This is a funny one, if you spam it once somebody interrupts your hearth (ie sap or maybe fear under certain circumstances) it will instantly trinket out of it. (13 is for top trinket spot, use 14 if it's on bottom, I guess /cast Every man for himself would probably work too.) not always useful but amusing.



/use Hearthstone

/use 13



uhh this is ok i guess, but when gouge gets dodged/parried/blocked it screws me over :/

/cast Gouge

/stopcasting

/use [target=player] Heavy Runecloth Bandage



yeh not home atm can't think of anything else cool
 
Here's a few of mine ;]



Rogue:



#showtooltip Vanish

/cast [stealth, target=focus, mod:shift] Cheap Shot; [target=mouseover, mod:alt] Cheap Shot; Cheap Shot

/cast [nostealth] Stealth

/cast [nostealth, mod:alt, mod:ctrl] Every Man For Himself

/cast [modifier:ctrl] Vanish; Cheap Shot




#Showtooltip

/cast [mod:shift, target=focus, equipped:thrown] Throw; [mod:shift, target=focus] Shoot; [mod:alt, target=mouseover, equipped:thrown] Throw; [mod:alt, target=mouseover] Shoot; [equipped:thrown] Throw; Shoot;

/stopattack [mod]




#showtooltip Sap

/cast [nostealth] Stealth

/cleartarget

/targetenemy

/cast [mod:ctrl] Vanish; [target=focus, mod:shift] Sap; [target=mouseover, mod:alt] Sap; Sap




#showtooltip

/clearfocus [target=focus, dead]

/focus [mod:alt, target=mouseover, exists]

/cast [nomod,target=target] Gouge; [mod:alt,target=mouseover,exists] Gouge; [mod:shift,target=focus,exists] Gouge; Gouge




Druid:




I've got all of my Druid spells setup like this. In conjunction with /cast [target=Party1,2,3,4] Spells, I'm able to cast everything on up to 12 different targets without switching my current target



/cast [target=targettargettarget, mod:ctrlt, mod:shiftl, mod:alt] Rejuvenation; [target=focustarget, mod:shift, mod:ctrl] Rejuvenation; [target=targettarget, mod:ctrl, mod:alt] Rejuvenation; [target=focus, mod:shift] Rejuvenation; [target=mouseover, mod:alt] Rejuvenation; [target=player, mod:ctrl] Rejuvenation; Rejuvenation



/cast [target=targettargettarget, mod:ctrlt, mod:shiftl, mod:alt] Regrowth; [target=focustarget, mod:shift, mod:ctrl] Regrowth; [target=targettarget, mod:ctrl, mod:alt] Regrowth; [target=focus, mod:shift] Regrowth; [target=mouseover, mod:alt] Regrowth; [target=player, mod:ctrl] Regrowth; Regrowth etc



And the largest macro I use...



/cast [nostance, target=targettargettarget, mod:shift, mod:ctrl, mod:alt] Faerie Fire; [stance:3, stance:1, target=targettargettarget, mod:shift, mod:ctrl, mod:alt] Faerie Fire (Feral)(); [nostance, target=focustarget, mod:shift, mod:ctrl] Faerie Fire; [stance:1, target=focustarget, mod:shift, mod:ctrl] Faerie Fire (Feral)(); [stance:3, target=focustarget, mod:shift, mod:ctrl] Faerie Fire (Feral)(); [nostance, target=targettarget, mod:ctrl, mod:alt] Faerie Fire; [stance:1, target=targettarget, mod:ctrl, mod:alt] Faerie Fire (Feral)(); [stance:3, target=targettarget, mod:ctrl, mod:alt] Faerie Fire (Feral)(); [nostance, target=focus, mod:shift] Faerie Fire; [stance:1, target=focus, mod:shift] Faerie Fire (Feral)(); [stance:3, target=focus, mod:shift] Faerie Fire (Feral)(); [nostance, target=mouseover, mod:alt] Faerie Fire; [stance:1, target=mouseover, mod:alt] Faerie Fire (Feral)(); [stance:3, target=mouseover, mod:alt] Faerie Fire (Feral)(); [nostance] Faerie Fire; [stance:1] Faerie Fire (Feral)(); [stance:3] Faerie Fire (Feral)()



It exceeds the default macro size limit by almost four times, but I use the action bar addon Macaroon which allows for macros to be written with unlimited length
