Does the WoW API offer any information about whether someone has a battle rez pending? If so, I'm looking for a macro that will cast a druid Battle rez (or any other class that can Brez for that matter) on a target, but only if that target does not already have a battle rez pending.

There's no API that has this information. There's no way to cast a spell in a script.

Thanks very much!

I'm pretty sure the answer is no but asking just in case. So I want to make a B-Rez macro that will do a /y when I use it...only I want it to go down a list... like first it does "Another successful procedure on <target>." Then the next time I use it I get "Don't mind the odd sounds and sensations, that's just progress." Is this possible?

Give this a whirl:

#showtooltip
/run local s="Rebirth" if GetSpellCooldown(s)==0 then SendChatMessage(GetRandomArgument("Phrase one","Phrase two","Phrase three"),YELL,nil,nil)
/use Rebirth

You're somewhat limited by characters so you can't write tons of stuff here.

The name of an outfit in the Blizzard Equipment Manager can be called with /equipset

Example

#showtooltip
/cast Blood Presence
/equipset Tank

Is it possible to make a macro that uses this:
"#showtooltip Greater Healing Wave
/cast [target=mouseover,help][help][target=player] Greater Healing Wave"
and make it so that when i press a modifier it casts a harmful spell on my target (no need for any mousover-function there) ?

May the force live long and prosper. // Zansas

no need for a modifier per se if your target is an enemy, but since you requested it I put it in there.
Also, #showtooltip doesn't need an argument, without any, it will show the correct one.

Thanks for the quick answer, I tried it out just now, but it doesn't seem to work. It won't cast the harmful spell (in my case; Lightning Bolt) =/ Any idea why that is?
The thing is that i want the button to cast heals, even though I have a enemy targeted, and if I press, for example, 5 it casts the heal, and if I press Alt+5 it casts lightning bolt.

I can't test it right now, but I'm pretty sure you need to take out the [target=player] condition; as it contains no conditional, it's always true and hinders the conditional [harm,mod] to be even checked. Sorry that I didn't see that at first.
Oh, wait, just add nomod:

#showtooltip
/cast [target=mouseover,help][help][nomod,target=player] Greater Healing Wave; [mod, harm] harmful spell

that should do it.

edit: if you want the LB function to only occur on alt (and not on shift or ctrl), it would be [mod:alt,harm].

[Taryble]

Cleaned up a touch - this should always cast LB if you have any modifier key pressed, and if you don't have any modifiers pressed, it should cast on Mouseover, Target, and then Self.

#showtooltip
/cast [mod] Lightning Bolt; [@mouseover, help][help][] Greater Healing Wave

If you want a SPECIFIC modifier key (alt, shift, or ctrl), just add :alt, :shift, or :ctrl after the word mod, but before the ] - mod:ctrl, for example.

Trying to heal using the Blizz raid UI, how should the macros look when clicking on a player frame it should cast a spell?

Clicking on a player frame will target the player.
What you possibly mean is mouseover, so when you have your cursor on a player frame (or the player) and press the button, it will heal the mouseover'd player?
That would look like

#showtooltip
/cast [@mouseover, help][] healing spell

Hi there, I currently have the following macro:

/cast !Aspect of the Hawk
/cast Chimera Shot
/petattack

What it does is ensures I'm in Aspect of the Hawk before casting Chimera Shot. What I'd like to add (if possible) is to mute the hawk sound, as it tends to spam and while I don't play with my sound on personally, I've had a few complaints over it being annoying as I use a similar macro for all my instant shots.

[lawomous]

If you're choosing to macro Aspects in with your shots then people around you are going to be forced to hear it if they play with their game sounds on.
