Pickpocket autoloot

[Maereax]

So, I'm new to being a rogue. I'm lvl 74 and making my way through northrend and I was realized I never use Pickpocket. I was looking around for a macro that would auto-loot my pickpockets without having autoloot on. I prefer to shift+loot when I want to loot everything, and don't want to have to edit my settings every time I decide to use the skill.

I did look around, but I'm not great at macros and didn't want to mess anything up without knowing how to change it back.

dont think there is a macro you can use to autoloot. might be one to turn it off and on but the same can be done in options... might be an addon out there but chances are slim cause most use the autoloot

[Maereax]

Well that sucks

[Palmela]

/script CloseLoot();
/cast Pickpocket

That should cover looting automatically. It works for prospecting at least.

[Maereax]

That in a macro does nothing

You can use the addon Cutup. It's meant for things like Slice and Dice, Envenom and Rupture bars but it comes with a few small extra things. One of those extra things is auto-looting pickpockets.

/script CloseLoot();
/cast Pickpocket

Prospecting and Disenchanting work differently. Once the cast is finished the target item is destroyed and there is no turning back, so simply closing the loot window makes you loot the item.

There is no macro command to my knowledge that can make you loot something. Auto loot is the only way of doing this.

AutoLootPocket used to turn on auto loot when you were stealthed and off again when you unstealthed - however the mod was abandoned back in 08'. Don't know if it works still or not.
I would give Cutup a shot if you dont want to have auto loot on when you feel the urge to go around pickpocketing

[Viglante]

the question is though.... why arn't you just using auto-loot everywhere? no bag space? -> are you slacking on upgrading bags/carrying lots of useless stuff?

[Maereax]

Still wearing netherweave at 80, so I guess I am kinda slacking lol

I just prefer to shift + right click to autoloot... I guess it comes from EQ and older games as a habbit... One of those things you think you should change, but don't want to?

If I turn autoloot on, will it auto loot boxes that I've picked?

If I turn autoloot on, will it auto loot boxes that I've picked?

When you unlock them, it doesn't open them.

When you open them, though, it will then loot it. So, if you're just picking a lock for a friend, it's fine as long as you can resist the urge to look inside it.

I finally turned auto-loot on this expansion specifically for pickpocket runs. I also have all my openers include pickpocket. You can pickpocket/cheapshot or pickpocket/sap or pickpocket/ambush, for instance, and you'll grab the item as long as you have auto-loot turned on.

Granted it will

Took about 4 seconds to write "Rogue Macro" in Google, another 3 seconds to press CTRL + F and write "pickpocket"

But yeah, here you go.


/script SetCVar("AutoLootDefault", 1)
/cast Pick Pocket
/in 1 /script SetCVar("AutoLootDefault", 0)

I tried that one, it screwed up my autoloot settings. I was autolooting everything, which I didn't want to do. I guess I'll have to just suck it up and use it.

[Rixis]

chances are you don't have the ace2 library for /in

so it was turning it on, but unable to run the script to turn it back off

personally i can't stand auto loot being turned off, and if i wanna selective loot i use shift, as i tend to selective loot a LOT less

then again, i'm the kinda person who lootsa all the gray shit to vendor, rather than take time deciding to NOT loot money >.>

This is probably a dumb question, but why wouldn't you autoloot everything?

OT: I have pickpocket macroed in my moves, like ambush, garrote and Cheap Trick. Since I leveled as sub, I pickpocketed a lot.
