Ask it! Macro Edition

Hi, I would like to macro the orc racial Blood Fury(?) to my mortal strike, but I want the cooldown shown be for Mortal Strike and not Blood Fury.

Is there a way to do this?

Right now I am using this mouseover macro

#showtooltip
/target [target=mouseover,exists,help,nodead]
/cast [mod:shift] Healing Touch; Nourish

But sometimes I waste heals on pets or totems, is it possible to have a mouseover macro that only heal players?

As far as I'm aware (could be wrong though), a macro can't find out what kind of unit you're targetting (apart from help/harm).
However I felt free to adjust your macro so you don't lose your actual target and also works when you don't have a mouseover.

#showtooltip
/cast [mod:shift,@mouseover,help,nodead][mod:shift] Healing Touch; [@mouseover,help,nodead][]Nourish

This will cast HT (with shift) or Nourish on your mouseover target should it exist, if you don't have a mo target, it will cast HT or Nourish on your current target.

I'm looking for a fun macro.

I want to be able to throw snowballs (or Heavy Leather Balls) at my focus target, while I use Chimera Shot on my main target

#showtooltip
/cast Chimera Shot
/use [@focus,exists] Snowball

I can't test it.

If I understand you want 3 macros, each one will cast a sequence of BoA, Corruption and UA at the specific arena target?

#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=20 [@arena1]Bane of Agony, Corruption, Unstable Affliction

Tweak the reset and change arena1 to arena2 and arena3 as needed.

thanks a ton judge40 will test it out lightning fast response

Judge, conditionals should come before the reset (behaviour of SecureCmdOptionParse). So it should probably be:

/castsequence [@arena1]reset=20 Bane of Agony, Corruption, Unstable Affliction

OK, I'm looking for a weird macro. What im trying to do is make a macro so i can just spam it and res at a spirit healer. So when I die as a lowbie i can just spam it and res! haha anyhelp would be great! thanks!

You'd have to make two clicks.

/cleartarget
/targetexact Spirit Healer
/stopmacro [noexists]
/in 2 /run local c=1 local f=_G["StaticPopup"..c] while f do if f.which == "XP_LOSS" then f.button1:Click() f.button1:Click() end c=c+1 f=_G["StaticPopup"..c] end

Hit the macro first, then your "interact with target" key binding. Can't interact with a unit in a macro, sadly.

/castsequence [@arena1]reset=20 Bane of Agony, Corruption, Unstable Affliction

Thanks for the correction, it was somewhat of an afterthought and I didn't pay much attention to where it put it .

Thought it didn't look right, doesn't really make much sense for it to be before - would stop you setting different reset criteria for each condition.

I currently have a macro that says 'Efflorescence active! Freeheals' to my Swiftmend keybind. Sometimes if I hold it down long or press it by accident when swiftmend is on CD it still says the /say command. Is there a way to make it so it only does the /say command when it actually casts swiftmend.

Only elegant and reliable way is to use addon, I suggest RSA for that purpose but not sure if you can add Efflorescence.

Thanks for the reply. I already have RSA and use it but efflorescence isn't a spell and RSA only tracks spells.

Have it announce on Swiftmend then.

I want a macro that would allow me to spam my heroic leap button onto wherever my mouse is pointing, without having to click it.
For example set my mouse out really far then mash the macro while dragging my mouse in towards my char.
Is this possible?

Not possible with just a WoW macro, that would need some kind of keyboard\mouse software which may be against TOS.

Is anyone able to make a macro which, selects trap launcher and chooses freezing trap on the first tap of the button, but if I tap the button twice it selects trap launcher and ice trap instead? with like a 3 second CD perhaps?

Trap Launcher is on the GCD so it would take a minimum of two button taps to even shoot your first trap.

Closest thing I can think of is this, untested.

#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=3 Trap Launcher,Freezing Trap,Ice Trap
