Ask it! Macro Edition

[Mordret]

I currently use very simple mouse over macros on my palandin, however, i want to advance it a bit, I currently use the following macro:

#showtooltip
/cast [target=mouseover]

However, i want to add to it so it whispers my target that i have cast a spell on them, like LoH, or HoP.
Further more, i want it to do it once only, even if i spam click the spell, i want it to first send the message when the spell succesfully got activated.

Thanks in advance.

Only reliable way is to use addon. RSA @ Curse, for example.

I just have one question (not related to if this will work, it will): Isn't it redundant to put both exists and help into the []?

Implications of exist have been buggy when combined with an negated dead/help/harm conditional. I now add it most of the time just to make sure.

Requires an addon, however I don't know one.

Even addons can't do it, since no event is fired when a capture cast starts (not even a CLEU).

Im looking for a macro for heroism/Bloodlust that will annouce Heroism going out and 40 seconds later announces the end of heroism. I saw one recently but for the life of me i cant remember how it was written.

Sorry if this one has already been asked.

You will need an addon like SlashIn first.

Then the macro would be something like this

#showtooltip
/cast Heroism
/raid Heroism UP! PEW PEW!
/in 40 /raid Heroism ended.

Hey guys,

I am looking for a macro that does mangle if I am not behind the target and shred if I am - I am not sure if one exists but if anyone can help me in any way that would be much appreciated.

Answered it in the other thread:

The macro tooltip can't decide what to show based on a CD. If you want to see the CD, you need to place soulburn somewhere so you can watch the button, or have it displayed by an addon.

For the macro, I use
/cast [mod] Soulburn
/cast Soulfire
for my normal Soulfire button, with a modifier it's instant (if SB is ready).

next Question:

I don't think a macro can determine if you are behind the target. Would be inconsistent with the other exclusions (CDs, present buffs etc).

Not possible. This would fall under the "Macros playing for you" rule of thumb.

Okay didn't think there would be any for it to work, but thanks anyways

This is my macro,

/cast [mod:ctrl]Shattering Throw(Battle Stance); Heroic Throw

How do i incorporate [@mouseover] [ ] for heroic throw within the above macro? Thanks in advance...

[Deleted]

Just like that.

#showtooltip
/cast [mod:ctrl]Shattering Throw(Battle Stance); [@mouseover,harm,nodead,exists][]Heroic Throw

I am searching for 2 macros.

1. Casts [spell x], and when you hold shift it casts [spell y].
2. Casts [spell z] on allies, and [spell w] on enemies.

#showtooltip
/cast [mod:shift]y;x

#showtooltip
/cast [help]z; w

Is there a way to heal my target while not in arena?

#showtooltip  /use [mod:alt,@Sírai] Greater Healing Wave  /use [mod:shift,@Hadriel] Greater Healing Wave  /use [nomod,@Totäm] Greater Healing Wave

thanks in advance

You can try this, it's a lot more compact. Without a modifier this will act like a normal spell. I assume the shaman who's selfcasting is Totam, but if it's the Sirai guy then you'd have to change the name around to see fit.

#showtooltip
/cast [mod:alt,@Sírai][mod:shift,@Hadriel][]Greater Healing Wave

thanks a lot

Hi!

I currently run with a pvp use trinket and the 480 intellect on use from engineering on my priest, and would like to know if theres a macro that shows the icon for my trinket if its ready, and if its not it shows the gloves, as they do not stack.

cheers!

[Deathcoffin]

Just like that.

#showtooltip
/cast [mod:ctrl]Shattering Throw(Battle Stance); [@mouseover,harm,nodead,exists][]Heroic Throw

Thanks bro~~~
