Saw these posts and thought you would all appreciate such a reference if you haven't set up any macros yet.
General Information Regarding Macros for WoW 2.0

Lots of Mage Macros and some general Macros

Fungi cause the great majority, an estimated two-thirds, of infectious plant diseases. They include all white and true rusts, smuts, needle casts, leaf curls, mildew, sooty molds, and anthracnoses; most leaf, fruit, and flower spots; cankers; blights; scabs, root, stem, fruit, and wood rots; wilts; leaf, shoot, and bud galls; and many others. -Encyclopedia Britannica

Good thread, I'm reading that right now.

There are class-specific threads in their respective subforums as well, good reads all around.

Insanely useful, thankyou.

If anyone has more sources for macros and mods (I'm personally looking for warrior specific ones), please post them.

thanks!

Warriors seem to be making a fair few, allthough to be honest I doubt I will be using that many of the new macro functions for tanking.

Has anyone found a way to macro the use of items by slot instead of by name? I rotate trinkets quite a lot, and would like to have a general macro to use them, instead of one that tries to use them all.

 

Darkchani

Its in the mage macros thread,
/use 13

for the top trinket slot, 14 for the bottom one

Ack, I missed that, thank you very much :).

Nice set of pet related macros here, and general hunter stuff too: http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/th...51008013&sid=1

 

heel

Official boards seem to be down . . . anyone know how to make a macro that attempts to cast a spell only if its cooldown is up?
For example,

/cast Inner Focus
/stopcasting
/cast Greater Heal(rank 5)

works fine, but gives an annoying error message any time Inner Focus is down.

 

◊ Oggie

Heel- to my understanding that is no longer possible, -however- you can approximate it:

/castsequence [reset=180] Inner Fire, Greater Heal(rank 5)

Should do about what you want.

Edit:
Call or Dismiss Pet
/cast [pet] Dismiss Pet; Call Pet

For Cireec

 

Apate

That has been explicitly stated as being a decision that needs to be player-made, not macro-made. Since your macro still works, you might look into an error suppression mod.

/turnoferrors
/cast Spell that might be on cooldown
/stopcasting
/turnonerrors
/cast Spell that will go through


You might even be able to just
/script UIErrorsFrame:Hide()
/cast Inner Focus
/stopcasting
/script UIErrorsFrame:Show()
/cast Greater Heal(rank 5)

See you, auntie.

 

◊ Oggie

Margot- look at my macro. IT will cast inner fire, then for every press for the next 180 seconds (the cooldown) it casts greater heal. If you in any fashion change up your casting (cast inner fier with another method) or have an extended cooldown, it will -not- work.

But if you want one button that hits IF, and its' your only accessor method, then hits GH otherwise, it should work just fine.

 

Apate

Ah, I thought that since he said it "works fine" that the "stop on fail" behavior was being applied to castsequence and heel was only looking for a way to block the error. At one point, I'm pretty sure I managed to make a macro in TBC that did the same thing with an activated trinket. Maybe that's different, or maybe it was a lucky build.

See you, auntie.

 

Nurru

I'm at work presently so I can't test it, but can castsequence be used with an inventory slot or item name as well? Something like: /castsequence [reset=75] Talisman of Ephemeral Power, Frostbolt

< Aislinana> Why would it be my job to sleep with vontre? Don't I have standards?

 

Rezarel

This won't work.

It will cast Inner Fire, then Greater Heal, then get stuck on Inner Fire. Using
/castsequence reset=60 Bloodrage, Battle Shout
will Bloodrage, Battle Shout, then spam "Ability is not ready yet."

Castsequence resets to the first ability when it hits the end of the list, regardless of any options you've set. Further, it won't advance to the next ability if the current ability fails.

The reset option will reset the macro back to the first item in the castsequence if you don't use the macro at all for that amount of time. Every use of the macro will reset the timer. So, something like
/castsequence reset=6 Shield Slam, Sunder Armor, Sunder Armor, Sunder Armor won't reset back to the beginning until you either execute all 3 sunders, or go a full 6 seconds without hitting the macro at all.

Some of these macros that people are complaining about loseing seem rediculous to make in the first place. Gheal5 + Inner Focus macro? Is that really necissary? I use Inner Focus all the time on other spells, and gheal rank 5 at least some times without Inner Focus, so having a macro that forces the two to act together really removes some flexibility and on the fly decisions that can be made in a panic.

I usually try to play with as few macros that make decisions for me as possible. Decursive being one of the only macros/mods I ever used that would "play for me". Healing mods, Mana Conserve mods(back in the day) and spell cast macros are a big no no for me. Maybe im unique in this.

You're not. I /cackle at druids/shamans that are complaining that their ZHC/NS/HW macros are broken and won't be able to use it for Gluth (at least their old ones, there's probably new ones that work for it). I don't find it particularly hard to cast ZHC (if I'm wearing it) when I see the warning, then slam down NS and HW buttons when it hits.

 

Shik

Hmm... can we use these sorts of delays to cycle through activated trinkets like Earthstrike?

 

Nurru

It looks like trinkets do work, but since the sequence will restart following the Frostbolt it won't work as I intended.

I suppose this would work: /castsequence [reset=75] 14, Frostbolt, Frostbolt, Frostbolt, Frostbolt, Frostbolt, Frostbolt, Frostbolt, Frostbolt, Frostbolt, Frostbolt, Frostbolt, Frostbolt, Frostbolt, Frostbolt, Frostbolt.... etc

Or something silly like that. I've love to just be able to do /use 14 /cast Frostbolt without worrying about "Item is not ready yet" messages.

Malan

I'm not a creative guy when it comes to macros, and I've never really used any before. In fact the only macro I actually have is a standard /r response to people asking about the bug mount. (which by the way, is broken in 2.0. How the hell did a macro that is 2 lines of /r break?) So, are there any good shaman macros that people are devising that might be interesting? I don't have any On Use trinkets like ZHC, so I won't find those of interest.
