help with a macro? - Hi guys. So I've been playing WoW since Tuesday and I'm having a great time so far! Now, I'm trying to automate something that has become a regular for me when I log on. Is it possible to write a macro that does these things: cast Frost..

macro help - I have this macro that I wrote: reset=3 Thorns, Mark of the Wild How can I edit it so that it will only cast MotW (and skip Thorns) if I hold down the shift key while pressing the hotkey? Thanks.

A little macro help - I have this macro to cast on myself: Power Word: reset=5 Touch of Weakness, Inner Fire, Power Word: Fortitude How do I need to modify this so that if I have a friendly target selected, I can use the same..

Macro help - Right now I have this macro: Power Word: reset=5 Inner FIre, Power Word: Fortitude I use the modifier so I can cast PW:F on other players. But is there a way for me to simply be able to press the macro key..

Fishing Macro - Is there a macro to help with Fishing? I dont want a bot, just get bored waiting for Float to bob down, is there any way of maybe assigning a to Reel fish in, instead of using mouse. PS, does anyone else find fishing for a long time Makes u fall..

Archived from groups: alt>games>warcraft (more info?)

Ok, all this talk about focus and macros has me looking to try to make
one for sheep-watching when partied. What I need is a sheeping-button
replacement macro that: a) casts sheep on the target; and b) sets
focus on that target so I can keep half an eye peeled on the sheep
countdown timer on its icon, for obvious reasons. Not being a
programmer, and having very limited and outdated experience with WoW
macro creation, any and all detailed info on how to do this would be
appreciated Smile

Hi Moosen,

Here is what I use for shackle undead (being a priest)

I guess you can just change Shackle Undead to Polymorph is it (the
name of the spell)?

Oh and chose the ? icon, and then it will show the correct icon for
you with out you searching for it.

----

Shackle undead, Stops you casting, creates a focus on your target and
shackles em, next time just press shackle and you dont need to
retarget the same mob. Auto clears if target dies or press right mouse
button to clear focus

#showtooltip Shackle Undead
#show Shackle Undead
/stand
/clearfocus [button:2]
/clearfocus [button:1,target=focus,dead]
/focus [button:1,target=focus,noexists]
/cast [button:1,target=focus,exists]Shackle Undead

----

Also, nothing to do with focus, but if you are interested, you can
save some button space using macros, here is one I use for Buffing
people with stamina (Fortitude), I guess you can adapt this for
intelect/arcane brilliance, by again replacing the spell names.

----

Buff Fort, Apply single buff to target, hold alt to aplly to self,
hold shift for group version

#showtooltip [modifier:shift] Prayer of Fortitude; Power Word:
Fortitude;
/cast [modifier:alt,target=player] Power Word: Fortitude
/cast [nomodifier,help] Power Word: Fortitude
/cast [modifier:shift,help] Prayer of Fortitude

----

Again nothing to do with focus but do you ever have to de-curse a
tank? This is for Shield but should also work for de-cursing with out
having to switch targets so you can easily carry on DPS etc.

----

Shield, casts on your targets target (In other words target the mob/
boss and Shield who ever he is hiting), a selected friendly target or
hold alt to cast on self

#showtooltip Power Word: Shield
/cast [modifier:alt,target=player] Power Word: Shield
/cast [help] Power Word: Shield
/cast [target=targettarget,help] Power Word: Shield

----

#show Polymorph
/clearfocus [modifier:shift]
/focus [target=focus,noexists]; [target=focus,dead]
/clearfocus [target=focus,help]
/cast [target=focus,exists,harm] Polymorph; Polymorph

also take a look at the Quartz addon it's very useful for tracking all kinds
of things.

It's called "seduction". I have a macro for it just like the fear and
banish ones. What's nice about it is that you don't even have to interrupt
your casting to refresh it, because you're telling your pet to do
something. You can even press the magic key while casting another spell. *

That macro looks a bit dis-jointed.

It uses the HARM check in casting but not when creating the focus.

Get the focus part right, i.e. include HARM in the checks (since you
can only polymorph targets that are "harmful") and you dont need that
clear focus line or the HARM check in the cast line.

Line 3 focuses on your current target if you do not have a focus or if
your focus is dead. If this results in your new focus being friendly
then line 4 will clear that focus so that you don't try to Polymorph a
friend.

Haha Smile Reminds me I saw a pally bubble+hearth out of AB the other day,
never actually seen that one in action before, not in a BG anyway, gave me
a good laugh though - bet he was laughing too, cause he could've /afk'ed to
much the same effect lol.

Maybe the bubble prevents the debuff, as it removes most harmful effects Wink
