    Stampeding Roar macro

    Is it possible to make 1 macro to:

    switch me to cat form, use stampeding roar and then switch back me to boomkin in "one use"?

    Or do I have to either press same macro 3 times, or do it manually?^^

    Are people really this lazy?

    Either way: I think GCD's would get in the way here.

    Its not about lazy, its alot easier to just press 1 button in a fight then try moniter alot "unneeded" stuff^^

    As in "panic" when you need to pop it for raid, ex majordomo hc or ragnaros..

    either way switching forms will trigger a global cooldown which means that a macro can not do any other cast of abilities after the gcd.

    all in all you can use a cast sequence macro, which means you will have to press the same button three times in a row.

    I personally recommend that you learn how to switch to your various forms and how to use the "can be used as balance" (dash, stampeding roar, cower) abilities when in the forms through keybinds.

    How would I need to do to setup that macro then? Im noob @ macros
    still easier with a cast sequence then press the shapeshift bar, go to my stamp roar, go back to shape-bar^^

    Easy beans maybe. I'll give it a shot.

    /cast Cat Form
    /cast Stampeding Roar
    /cast Moonkin Form

    Could be wrong, but give it a shot and let me know.

    /castsequence ability1, ability2, ability3, ability1

    as an example.

    to quote myself:

    a bit more complicated possibly but overall you will master your Boomkin a bit better

    switching forms triggers the gcd (explained in that druids shouldn't be able to spam themselves out of slows).

    Tried with that, eaisest solution, but not working as it will, on second "press" make me go caster farm (using cat-form deactvite it)

    /castsequence reset=6 Cat Form, Stampeding Roar, Moonkin Form

    I put in the reset incase You get into a fight or something then the macro sequence will reset after 6 seconds, you can ofcourse just leave that out.

    about the "keybinds" good idea with shift+3, gonna try it out just need to get use to it but ya

    ---------- Post added 2011-09-29 at 07:06 PM ----------

    I will go with:

    #showtooltip Stampeding Roar(Cat Form)
    /castsequence reset=6 Cat Form, Stampeding Roar(Cat Form), Moonkin Form

    Untill I get use to:

    Shift+3 = cat form
    'e' = stampeding roar
    'q' = dash
    Shift+4 = boomkin

    Thx for helm
