Just tried it all out and works perfectly.
Thanks for the help.

Just curious, why not turn your pet on defensive, or are you trying to get your pet to switch to your target?

He's probably looking to get his pet to switch targets. I use something similar...

#showtooltip
/cast Hunter's Mark
/startattack
/petattack

I came across something strange in the official wow forums. A user suggested the following macro in order to spam LBolt, and cast LBurst whenever its off cooldown.

#showtooltip Lightning Bolt 
/castsequence Lightning Bolt 
/cast Lava Burst

I have hard time wraping my head around how is it actully supposed to work (and I can't test it right now as I'm at work). I thought such behaviour should not be possible (cast X if CD is up, otherwise Y). Any ideas?

@Pliaksi:
The only thing I can think of for that to work would be...

#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=8 Lava Burst, Lightning Bolt

Since LBurst has an 8 second cooldown, the castsequence would reset every time LBurst is up.

Incorrect. reset=x counts from the last press, not the first one.

I don't actually need that macro. I am just trying to figure out the bahaviour of a /castsequence command with just one spell and no additional parameters. But I guess that I need to test if it works at all...

Ahh, I see. I misunderstood the functionality of it.

@Pliaksi:
Hmm. I don't have a shaman that is of a high enough level to have LBurst, but I suppose I could test it on my hunter with...

#showtooltip
/castsequence Aimed Shot
/cast Steady Shot

I'll let you know what I find (when I get home; curse having to work!).

Hey guys, I need a macro which allows me to switch into Battle or Berserker Stance and equip both my 2handers, this is usually pretty simple, but I happen to have two with the same name and when I use the macro I usually use, it only equips one of them.

#showtooltip Berserker Stance
/cast Berserker Stance
/equipslot 16 weapon name goes here
/equipslot 17 same as above

Is the macro I use.

Pretty annoying since the only fix I've found this far is to manually switch stance and then use a keybound outfitter set with both the 2hs to get the weps up again, and I keep forgetting this and end up going entire fights with a shield after a reflect etc.

#showtooltip Lightning Bolt 
/castsequence Lightning Bolt 
/cast Lava Burst

Tested this out on the target dummies. It works, but my dps is a good bit lower. It seems to cause a bit of delay between the spell casts.

Actually interesting macro. Technically it should not work, but from what I tested the macro is kind of abusing the GCD queueing system, since castsequence'd Lightning Bolt isn't getting queued but Lava Burst is getting queued if the macro is spammed while you're about 0.5 seconds from the Lightning Bolt. Not an IDEAL solution but interesting find.

Looking for a 1 button druid macro that will toggle between bear and cat form

[lawomous]

Pretty straightforward.

#showtooltip
/cast [form:1]Cat Form;[form:3]Bear Form

#showtooltip
/cast [form:1] Cat Form; [form:3] Bear Form

Should work.

Edit: lawo beat me to it :P

[domajm32]

thank you for the quick response but that #showtooltip /cast [form:1]Cat Form;[form:3]Bear Form dose not work

Is #showtooltip on a separate line than the rest?
