Priest cure disease/dispel magic macro

[zalvi]

i need help with a macro that will cast Dispel Magic on the target but if the debuff is not a magic effect but a disease it will cast cure disease instead i was thinking of something like this,
#showtooltip
/cast Dispel Magic
/cast Cure Disease

i dont dont have a way to test it out yet since im not in dungeon, or dueling to test it out

All that macro does is cast Dispel Magic on your target. There is no way to write a macro that will dispel the proper debuff for you.

Macros cannot check for debuffs/buffs and make decisions based on which buffs/debuffs are active etc. What you're asking for is an impossibility. Put both spells on your bar and use some brain power to dispel ;p

Alternatively, you can do both! Use some brain power and still have them linked to one button.

#showtooltip
/cast [mod:shift] Cure Disease; Dispel Magic

Just be sure that your Shift + <key> isn't bound to anything else, like Action Pages.

Either way, you still have to know what you want to dispel before dispelling it. There's no way around that (other than being a paladin, of course.)

They are correct, it wont make the decision for you. The best you can do is something like:

#showtooltip
/cast [mod:shift] Dispel Magic; Cure Disease


What that says is if you hold the shift key down, it will cast Dispel Magic, if you arent holding shift it will cure disease.

Or, just download decursive. Great addon, gives you a small row of boxes at the bottom of your screen, and you left- or right-click based on what you need removed. that way, you could take that off your bar completely.

I just used the above macro to bind dispel magic for offensive purposes to another spell. Basically, I will be using Decursive for defensive cleansing, and have a shift-modified dispel magic bound to another spell in case I need to mess someone up in PvP.

I am teh sneaky. Also, you dispel more magic than diseases these days, so Dispel Magic should be the default cast. :P

You can also use other addons (like Vuhdo, an annoying-but-powerful raid frames addon) to modify how you click cast things.

Alright, next step up :3

I'm trying to set up this shift-check macro for a mouseover macro. So far it isn't working as well as I'd hoped. x.x
