I fish a lot, but some fish are completely useless.

Is it possible to write a macro to only destroy all the fish of a certain type in my bags with one button click? For example Murglesnout or Sharptooth.

I'd be very interested to see such a "quote" - which you could have just copied and pasted. What on earth are you reading?

Ditto. Where did you get that quote from?

Hey! Just curious. Is it possible to make a macro that casts Bandage on myself?

Your macros should work:

#showtooltip
/cast [@player]Heavy Embersilk Bandage

Hey there, Im looking for some help making a macro for my hunter. I wish to have http://www.wowhead.com/item=64687 macro'd to my shots and not have the "This item is not ready yet" or whatever message spam while it's on cooldown. I would also like to have my character shout something when it procs, just for fun. I currently have it macro'd to steady shot, chim shot, arcane shot, aimed shot, and serpent sting like so:

#showtooltip
/cast *shot name here*
/use Bloodthirsty Gladiator's Badge of Conquest

Truly a random mount would be this:

/run CallCompanion("MOUNT", math.random(1, GetNumCompanions("MOUNT")))

The problem is it doesn't differentiate between ground, flying and aquatic.

#showtooltip
/castrandom [flyable]flymount1,flymount2,flymount3; ground1,ground2,ground3
/dismount [noflying][flying, mod:shift]

Seeing as how there is no difference in mount speeds between all mounts now, I was wondering if there is a macro that can mount you up on a random mount every time you click it. I was thinking of something like this for the macro... Assigning lets say 5 or 6 mounts to the numbers 1-6 and then generating a random number that corresponds to that mount and sets you up on it. Is it possible to write such a macro? Please help

That works quite nice thanks, now is there anyway to make separate ones for ground and air? Is there anyway to specify mounts as well, like if I have 5 fav mounts that I want to random between.

This code will pick a random mount of your choice, good if you have a really long list of mounts:

/run m={4,5,6}; CallCompanion("MOUNT", m[math.random(1,#m)])

You pick the mounts for this by counting which position they have in your mount tab, counting left to right, top to bottom, and adding their position to the

m={1,2,3,4,5,6}

list

This version randomly summons mount 1,2,3 if you're in a fly zone and mount 4,5,6 if you're in a no-fly zone:

/run if IsFlyableArea() then m={1,2,3} else m={4,5,6} end; CallCompanion("MOUNT", m[math.random(1,#m)])

For Druids, is there a way to make, for example, Mangle (bear and cat) into one macro so that it will cast reguardless of which form Im in? I think I saw the modifiers somewhere here, but I can find them.

EDIT: I found the modifiers :P

But I have another problem: The Talent Stampede lets me use Ravage outside of stealth after I feral charge, but any macro with Ravage in it wont work even though I should be allowed to use it. Is there some kind of modifier to let me use Ravage (Stampede)?

Look into both this addon and this addon.

Hello once again!

I was thinking, is it possible to have a macro to announce in Party chat when Rebuke is cast, but only once? Currently when I use it it gets spammed like 10 times which is annoying. If there is not a macro, is there an addon that does this!?

Thanks <3

Yes, this addon.

I need a macro that focuses a specific char when I normal click it, and clears my focus when i shift click it.

Ive only got the first line. Thanks in advance

Ok, trying to figure out a macro that will cast Red, then thunder clap and STAY thunderclap or reset 15 seconds later.

Effect i am looking for is i hit rend, then thunderclap and the button stays as thunderclap unless i dont use it in time and rend falls off (thus the 15 second reset)


I have "/castsequence reset=15 rend, Thunder Clap" but it keeps switching between the two and not staying on thunderclap untill the reset point.

10 gcds ~ 15s. Best you can hope for, tbh:

/castsequence reset=15 Rend,Thunder Clap,Thunder Clap,Thunder Clap,Thunder Clap,Thunder Clap,Thunder Clap,Thunder Clap,Thunder Clap,Thunder Clap

reset option only starts counting after each keypress.

Hello!

Currently I use this macro as a workaround to the Priest Holy Word bug:

#showtooltip Holy Word: Chastise
/target mouseover
/click MultiBarBottomLeftButton3
/targetlasttarget

Because Healbot/Clique/Mouseover macros have trouble differentiating between different Holy Word spells, the prolem is if I try to put /use 14 anywhere in to automatically use my macro it seems to completely ignore it and not use the trinket, any ideas why?

[Wardonis]

I'm looking for a way to auto target party or raid member with a curse and decurse them then resume my prevous target. I loose alot of time clicking on party members then clicking decurse and having to try and find my inital target. I just don't have room on my bar for decurse and as a fire mage its really important I stay with the same target for dps. I don't mind mixing a macro with an addon if neccesary.

I can see an addon changing cursed targets to my focus and a macro saving my target going to focus decurse and resume target. But I don't know if there are any addons that do such a thing.

[Deleted]

Not possible to automatically target a cursed raid member. However, it is possible to cast a spell on the raid member your mouse is over, like this:

#showtooltip
/cast [@mouseover, help, nodead][]Remove Curse

[Wardonis]

So I just mouse over them and push the button on my bar? I don't have to click them and target them?
