It's blocked, Destrous. The /cast Shadowbolt will - if you can't cast it - trigger a short GCD (0.4s I think I read somewhere) so /cast Lifetap wont ever trigger.
I'm not quite sure if this is possible...but I was trying to figure out if there was a way to make a one button (clicked twice, I know it isn't possible with one click) summon then Demonic Sacrifice my Succubus.
is what I have right now, but the summon spell triggers again after the sacrifice (because it doesn't trigger GCD), is there a script to stop a macro if I have a certain aura? or am I trying to think too hard?
Gearknight and Deathwing, thank you for your help on the nodead targeting macros, but unfortunately neither of them seemed to work too well for me. It works fine on the first wave, when there are no corpses, but after that it doesn't target alive Necromancers anymore.

Anyway, is there a way to macro switching between chat tabs? I want to have my "spam" tab behind the general tab with a button I can press to toggle between the two.
It's been five days, so I imagine it's safe to bump this question.
Aranan,
I am still in search of an option like that. Posted my question about 2 weeks ago.
I'm going to try out Dock when I get home to see if I can work something out with that.
I've tried to make a macro that decides what's best to eat and works everywhere (in and out of arena):
/use Conjured Manna Biscuit
/use Star's Tears
/use Telaari Grapes
If I have no conjured food it'll use Star's Tears (mana) and Telaari Grapes (hp) = perfect, I don't mind the waste if I'm at full hp or mana. However - if I have conjured food - it'll use Conjured Manna Biscuit (mana and hp) and then overwrite the mana "buff" with Star's Tears, but ignore Telaari Grapes.
I assume this is because Star's Tears can be used everywhere (also arena) and thus has a higher priority = overwrite.
PS. I don't need links to fancy consumable mods with any and every thing put on 38 nice buttons
I've been working on my macros in 2v2, and I was wondering how I can switch my target and focus with eachother using one button? The target becomes the focus, and the focus becomes the target...rinse and repeat on each button click?
I feel like a lot of time is wasted in pvp trying to switch targets, but this is the one macro that I find myself needed.

I believe this is what you're looking for, cogwheel's post on wow ui forums.
It's possible to swap your target and your focus, giving you in effect two targets you can toggle between:
The first two lines clear the target and/or focus if they are dead (if you really want to keep track of multiple dead targets, e.g. to resurrect or loot them, then delete those lines). The fourth is needed because /target focus doesn't clear your target if you have no current focus (without it, the fifth line would then retrieve your previous target).

Try:
/target focus
/focus lasttarget
Edit: nevermind, this won't work, go with what Honorix posted above
Hey. In the past I've created macros that use items (usually trinkets) while casting a spell so I dont forget to make use of it. For instance, I have trinkets where the use increases my healing by a few hundred. I then make a macro that uses it when I cast chain heal.
The problem I am now trying to get around is the macro attempting to use the item when its on cooldown which results in the cast/use failure sound as well as a warning message. This is always disconcerting to hear as a healer in battle. How can I prevent my macro from trying to use an item that isn't ready?

You can't implicitly. Macros are by design not able to make decisions based on cooldowns. Explicitly, however, you have two options. A, make the use of the trinket triggered by a modifier, i.e.
/use [modifier:shift] Xiri's Gift
/cast Starfire
The spell will cast every time, trinket only activates if you hold shift. The second option is to add code to your macro that removes the cast failing information from your errors frame, etc. Don't know the code offhand (I don't use it, I don't mind seeing the errors), but I know it's in this thread somewhere.

You can get a mod called ErrorMonster to hide the error text and you can turn off the error sound from the game settings/sound.
Does anyone know what the name of the "pet" you get is when you get the Shadow of Death debuff on the Gorefiend fight?
I've been using macro's like
/cast [pet] Spirit Lance; Shadow Word: Death
to properly control the ghost without fumbling for hotkeys, but this kinda messes up my rotations when I have my Shadowfiend up, because it doesn't have Spirit Lance ;-) It isn't that bad because I'd just end up Mindflaying for 15 seconds, but it's inefficient nonetheless.
So ideally I'd change it to
/cast [pet: whateverthenameofthatpetis] Spirit Lance; Shadow Word: Death
Our guild hunters, aff lock and lonely frostmage would also love you for it ;-)

i'm looking for an addon like SuperMacro that increases the max length a macro can have and also the total number of macros. does anyone knows such an addon? SuperMacro is really outdated. i took a look at capsule, but when i tried it, it removed all my macros (backups 4tw)
Humm, I'm looking for what seems a simple NS macro. I want to use NS + Healing Wave when I press the macro normally, and I want to use NS + Chain Lightning when I hold alt and press the macro.
You might want to remove the [nomod] before Nature's Swiftness. In it's current form it's impossible for your macro to both use Nature's Swiftness and Chain Lightning at the same time, because you have to have alt pressed to cast Chain Lightning, but your macro will not use Nature's Swiftness if you have alt pressed.
