Ask it! Macro Edition

Is it possible that your mod key is stuck or otherwise not working? Try using another modifier, because your macro should never attempt to use Dark Simulacrum if any modifier is held down.

Na they are all working, dunno why putting the item name instead of the slot ID worked. Happened to me a few years ago as well with another macro but usually slot ID is just fine.
No clue but now I'm happy since UH DK dont have any dps cooldowns on a 2 min cd which I could otherwise bind it into

Hello all,

I'm in need of a macro that will allow me to cast Nature's swiftness then Healing touch on a friendly player, but if I have a hostile targeted it will cast Nature's swiftness, cyclone or roots. Any help would be greatly apprecatied .

#showtooltip
/cast Nature's Swiftness
/cast [harm, nodead, mod] Roots; [harm, nodead] Cyclone; Healing Touch

You have to correct the spell names.
This one casts HT on friendly/neutral or Cyclone on enemy, or Roots on enemy if you press either ctrl/alt/shift.

EDIT: Let me just propose the way I do it to you: I have the abilities on different buttons, one for HT, one for Cyclone and so on, and each is actually a macro that fires Nature's swiftness if I press the button with a modifier, like:

#showtooltip
/cast [mod] Nature's Swiftness
/cast ABILITY IN QUESTION

and actually I have a mouseover in there as well because I like it:

#showtooltip
/cast [mod] Nature's Swiftness
/cast [@mouseover, exists][] ABILITY IN QUESTION

behaves like the normal spell button, but if you have a mouseover, that'll be the target.

Thank you so much Tearor, that macro works wonderfuly

Hello

Is there a macro (or addon) that does all the prospecting for me? As I may prospect many many stacks everyday.

Atm I use:

/use Prospecting
/use Ghost Iron Ore

But then I need to press it for every time I prospect.

What I would like is something like - press once then go watch a video while my char prospect it all x] Is it even doable?

[Shadowss]

Nonslid, I use addon called Breakables. It's on curse, however, I'm not sure if it will prospect it all at once. Although I have not messed around with the settings so I'm not sure.

It takes hardware input for every prospecting action, last I checked. You might be able to queue them up and let it go with an addon, though.

Or you can use a hardware macro or something like <snip> to press the button over and over for you.

Which I'm pretty sure isn't allowed.

It is doable with something like <snip> like Squirl mentioned but it is against the Terms of Service. WoW requires individual hardware input for certain actions.

However if you are willing to step into a ToS grey area there is a Program called Consortium Key Sender. It doesn't fully automate hardware inputs but it lets you run WoW in the background and will translate mouse movement or other keyboard inputs to specific key presses. Basically: you run WoW, you set up CKS and you go browse the web and moving the mouse will trigger a button which you assigned to your prospecting/milling macro.

Again it's really in the ToS grey area, if you get banned using it don't blame me or the CKS authors. You have been warned :P

Dont think I'll take the risk, rather be at the safe side and do it the slow boring way while watching a movie or something ^^
Thanks for the tip though

Hello guys!

Need macro, that retargets the lasttarget if i accidently lose it via targeting aoe spell on the ground. It is important, because atm rain of fire is even in single target rotation for warlocks, and have only 6 sec duration, so its kinda lame to lose the target, even with sticky target.

i tried:

/targetlasttarget
/cast !rain of fire

but seems to be broken when i tap rain of fire multiple times :/

please fix

#showtooltip
/targetlasttarget [noexists]
/cast !Rain of Fire

I'm trying to get focus AT mouseover, exists script Set Raid Target"Target",4; to work. They work as 2 separate macros but as I'm on Dinomancer duty on Horridon I would like to set focus on the dinomancer and put the raid marker on it in one button.

Had to remove some of the elements as it would not let me post

#showtooltip

/cast !Rain of Fire

Works fantastic! THANK YOU

/cast !Rain of Fire

What does ! represent?

[eyrie]

What does ! represent?

The ! prevents canceling the Rain of Fire channel. /cast can toggle spells on and off, if you pressed the macro twice it would cast the rain of fire on the first press and cancel it again with the second press.

In other words, ! means "toggle on, never off".
