Ask it! Macro Edition

[lawomous]

I'm looking for a macro that lets me cast Hellfire if I left click, and does a /stopcasting if I right click. I know I have to use [button:1] and such, but not sure how to do a casting and a non-cast command with them. Is it possible?

I use this on my warlock for AoE, rightclick cancels Hellfire.

#showtooltip Hellfire
/cast Demon Soul
/cast [combat]Felstorm
/cancelaura [channeling]Hellfire
/stopmacro [btn:2,channeling]
/cast Hellfire

Are you able to bind Lightning ball and Lava burst on 1 button without having to use shift/ctrl/other buttons
just press 1 and when lb is rdy you cast that if it isnt you cast lightning bolt?

I don't recommend it but you nearly get an OK ele Rotation in one button with this macro. I don't know why it works but it seems to with testing.

/castsequence reset=5 Lightning Bolt,Lightning Bolt,Chain Lightning
/castsequence reset=9 Elemental Mastery,14,Berserking,Lifeblood
/castsequence reset=9 Unleash Elements,Flame Shock,Lava Burst,Earth Shock,Lava Burst,Earth Shock,Lava Burst

Hey folks.
I am looking for a macro for an Arms PvP Charge/Intercept.
I am not the best at macros, and this is what I have come up with so far

Basically I want to be able to switch to Defensive Stance (first button press) and Intervene (second button press) if I have a friendly target either selected or mouseovered.
I also want to cast Battle Stance and Charge if I have an enemy selected.

Would it be possible to get some help with this please?

Kinda hurt my brain first thing in the morning but try this, should do it

#showtooltip
/cast [@mouseover,help,form:1/3][help,form:1/3]Defensive Stance;[@mouseover,help][help]Intervene;[@mouseover,harm,form:2/3][form:2/3]Battle Stance;[@mouseover,harm][]Charge
/cancelaura Bladestorm

[blaqkmagick]

I can't figure this out for the life of me

#showtooltip Hex
/stopcasting
/cast [mod:ctrl][@focus,harm,nodead][]Hex
/p Hexing  %f

Can anyone please tell me if there is anyway that the party text will be modified so that is says "/p Hexing %f" when there is no modifier and "/p Hexing %t" when I press control?
Sorry if it's been asked and thanks for the help.

For this kind of issue, I like to recommend RSA, which is more accurate than macros by using combat log parsing.

If you still want a macro solution, here you go:

#showtooltip
/stopcasting
/cast [mod:ctrl][@focus,harm,nodead][]Hex
/run local unit = select(2,SecureCmdOptionParse("[mod:ctrl][@focus,harm,nodead][]Hex")) or "target" SendChatMessage("Hexing "..((UnitName(unit)) or "<no "..unit..">"),"PARTY")

Thank you for the prompt reply. Is there any downside to using a macro? I realize the addon might be simpler but is the macro finnicky or something like that or am I just as well off?
Thanks

EDIT: I also have a windshear and purge macro so I changed the last line to

/run local unit = select(2,SecureCmdOptionParse("[mod:ctrl][@focus,harm,nodead][]Wind Shear")) or "target" SendChatMessage("Interrupted "..((UnitName(unit)) or "<no "..u

but that doesnt announce "interrupted" in party. Any ideas? thanks.

Well, macro will announce once per button press, for example. So if you spam the button, you spam the message. Macro also can't account for cooldowns - it will announce even if hex is on cooldown.
An addon on the other hand will only announce if the spell actually goes off.

Anyways, your macro issue is likely because the macro's too long (thus cutting off the end). I've shortened it down a bit.

#showtooltip
/stopcasting
/cast [mod:ctrl][@focus,harm,nodead][]Wind Shear
/run local u=select(2,SecureCmdOptionParse("[mod:ctrl][@focus,harm,nodead][]")) or "target"SendChatMessage("Interrupted "..((UnitName(u)) or "<no "..u..">","PARTY")

as long as trapshot is not on the gcd, that would be

/cast trapshot
/cast [btn:2] ice trap; snake trap

Im looing for a priest macro that enables me to cast Guardian Spirit, while at the same time elerts the raid and also does a /w to the one that has Guardian Spirit. Ive managed to destroy the one I had, and it only shows up with a raid message.

The macro I had looked something like this;

/ra Guardian Spirit casted on %t!
/cast Guardian Spirit
/script if UnitExists("target") then SendChatMessage("Guardian Spirit on you! ","WHISPER",nil,UnitName("target"))

I tried to fix it, but just managed to make it noneworking. There is some missing bits at the end, which I manage to delete and it's just a mess at the moment. So If anyone could be so kind to help me get this macro working again. Or just make a new macro that actually does what I want it to do

I recommend using an addon rather than a macro for proper announcing that is just much easier to customize and won't spam your raid if you press the button too many times. RSA - Raeli's Spell Announcer. You also save yourself a macro slot.

Add an "end" to the one you posted.

I was wondering what the macro would be so that I could link the use on my gloves (synapse springs) To be used whenever I cast bloodthirst but not to show the error message when on cooldown so essentially
#showtooltip Bloodthirst
/Use Earthen Gauntlets
/Cast Bloodthirst

But to expand on it so it doesn't show an error message when gloves are on cooldown.

[Deleted]

#showtooltip
/run UIErrorsFrame:UnregisterEvent("UI_ERROR_MESSAGE")
/use 10
/run UIErrorsFrame:RegisterEvent("UI_ERROR_MESSAGE")
/cast Bloodthirst
