Ask it! Macro Edition

[Deleted]

Try adding

print("Hex detected!")

right before the SendChatMessage line.

This changes nothing. It does not even seem to reach the SendChatMessage part, because I do not get the "You are not in a party!" error message. I checked if I disabled LUA error messages, but they were enabled. I already tried disabling all other addons, still no reaction.
Anyway here's a list of my running addons, if that helps:

• Bagnon
• Bagnon_Config
• Bagnon_Forever
• Bagnon_Tooltips
• Bartender4
• Clique
• Omen
• OmniCC
• OmniCC_Config
• Quartz
• ShadowedUF_Options
• ShadowedUnitFrames
• suCCess
• VendorMaster
• caelLib
• caelMedia
• caelNamePlates
• DBM-Core
• DBM-GUI
• DBM-Party-Cataclysm

suCCess is the addon-snippet you wrote for me.

so long

Looking for (if possible) a single macro that can equip my shield and go into Defensive Stance and cast Shield Wall, and after that equip my OH weapon back and go into Berserker.

HUGE bonus if it's spam safe (sometimes I spam it and I equip my shield in Berserker Stance).

I need help with a Macro for Outbreak. I want it to do Outbreak, or Plague Strike when Outbreak is on CD.
Heres what I use:

#showtooltip Outbreak
/castsequence reset=58 Outbreak, Plague Strike, Plague Strike, Plague Strike, etc...

It works, but sometimes it messes up and doesn't reset after 58 seconds. Anyone know how to fix this or could tell me a better macro?

Thanks.

I need a macro that casts Thorns if the target is friendly and casts Thorns on target of target if the target is hostile. I'm sure it's simple but I suck at this stuff >.>

Also a macro for casting Thorns on focus :P

[lawomous]

Using two /casts abilities that are both on the GCD will never work. The way people have gotten around that was by doing this.

#showtooltip
/cast Outbreak
/castsequence Plague Strike

As somehow this can queue both abilities.

@Aveykin

#showtooltip
/cast [help][@targettarget,help]Thorns

#showtooltip
/cast [@focus]Thorns

Untested:

#showtooltip
/cast [mod,@focus,help,nodead][help] Thorns
/stopmacro [@focus,help,nodead][noharm][@targettarget,harm]
/cast [@targettarget,help] Thorns

Description: casts Thorns on focus target if a modifier key was pressed, otherwise on friendly target. Stops macro if you had a friendly focus, or non-hostile target (friendly or doesn't exist) or if your target's target is hostile. Casts Thorns on target's target if its friendly. If you want the Thorns on friendly focus to take priority, then remove "mod," in the macro.

Ah, this could be it. Deleted my post.

Quoting for next page since it got skipped.

I'd like to ask how to make a macro to go into bear form, cast bash then go back into cat form. I'm complete newbie into macroing. =\

#showtooltip
/cast [nostance:1]Bear Form;
/castsequence [stance:1]reset=60 Bash, Cat Form

Good evening. I'm looking for a macro for my Guardian of Ancient Kings for my prot pala.
I'd like it to say when i'm using it and then in 12s when it runs off to tell the grp/healer(s) that the timer has run off and i'll be taking full dmg again

If you could help me with this i'll hand out kisses till the cows come home <3

[Aggroholic]

I need a mouseover Holy Shock macro so I was hoping someone could help me out or if theres already one listed here, direct me to it please lol.

Idk what the modifiers would be since it can heal and damage...

[glovhizzle]

i tried and it will now say ressurection casting... but thats all

local a = CreateFrame("Frame")
a:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event, ...)
    local arg = {...}
    self.pguid = self.pguid or UnitGUID("player")
    if (arg[2] == "SPELL_AURA_APPLIED" or arg[2] == "SPELL_AURA_REFRESH") and arg[3] == self.pguid and arg[9] == 51514 then
        SendChatMessage("|cff71d5ff|Hspell:51514|h[Hex]|h|r on "..arg[7]! 45 seconds CD!","PARTY")
    end
end)
a:RegisterEvent("COMBAT_LOG_EVENT_UNFILTERED")

Untested. How to use. Report back with issues.

Also, I'd strongly recommend a full-size CC macro, like this:

#showtooltip
/clearfocus [@focus, dead][@focus, noharm][btn:2]
/cast [@focus, exists][harm, nodead]Hex
/stopmacro [@focus, exists]
/focus

Untested again.

local a = CreateFrame("Frame")
a:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event, ...)
    local arg = {...}
    self.pguid = self.pguid or UnitGUID("player")
    if arg[2] == "SPELL_CAST_START" and arg[3] == self.pguid and arg[10] == "Redemption" then
        if arg[7] then
            SendChatMessage("Resurrection on: "..arg[7], GetNumRaidMembers()>0 and "RAID" or GetNumPartyMembers()>0 and "PARTY" or "SAY")
        else
            SendChatMessage("Resurrection casting...", GetNumRaidMembers()>0 and "RAID" or GetNumPartyMembers()>0 and "PARTY" or "SAY")
        end
    end
end)
a:RegisterEvent("COMBAT_LOG_EVENT_UNFILTERED")

If you want to always cast on mouseover:

#showtooltip
/cast [@mouseover, exists, nodead][]Holy Shock

If you want to use it to heal:

#showtooltip
/cast [@mouseover, help, nodead][help, nodead][@targettarget, help,nodead][@player]Holy Shock

That means it couldn't detect a target for your cast from the combat log, which is weird. Can you, the next time you test, switch to your combat log tab and see if it notes a target there?

What do I put in a macro to clear the red error text? Thanks.

[lawomous]

/run UIErrorsFrame:Clear()

[Bags]
