Macros...secret macro i know, i think :p

bulldogg13 · Mar 29, 2007

well yes self explanitory but just wanted to start a thread on macros, but yeah i just wanted to show a few macros that i have found out, so far i am the only person who knows the macro. i say that becuase i know on my server no one else knows about it

pretty sure about that lol. but here is the macro, basically what it does is that it will lets say if you have someon follow you, you basically click this button a lot of times "spam" the button, and then your screen will freeze up BUT on their screen you are still moving, so they keep following you. and then whenever you want you quit hitting the button and then you will stay right where you were when you started clicking the button, and that person that followed you, will have just followed nothing. it is actually good against horde if your alliance or alliance if your horde. nice for getting away. but it is a really stupid, yet simple macro. stupid as in omg why is this the macro, the code i mean well here it is

/sit
/stand
/sit
/stand
/sit
/stand
/sit
/stand
/sit
/stand

and you keep doing that code untill you cannot write anymore words and that is it

but for it to work you need to keep hitting the button.

but please post if you guys want to on macros if you know any, they dont have to be special

they can be macros i guess to help others too

Gotta try it^^

My rogue tricks, never tried seriously, dunno if they still work, but cool anyway:

EDIT: "Not tested" means "not tested by me"

"Legit" macros:

Sprint & evasion before Preparation - Doesn't matter, you're resetting CDs anyway^^ (Not tested, but should work)

Code:

/cast Evasion
/stopcasting
/cast Sprint
/stopcasting
/cast Preparation

Pretty straight-forward, enable auto looting for best results

Code:

/cast Pick Pocket
/stopcasting
/cast {Any opener}

Bugged ones:

Cheapshot without breaking stealth - Un-equip bow first and mash ahead (Not tested!)

Code:

/equip [noequipped:bow] {your bow name}
/cast Cheap Shot
/stopattack

Mash for bugged riposte (Not tested!)

Code:

/castrandom Sinister Strike, Riposte

nice!

those are some neat ones, now since the expansion i think, there is that "auto-loot" button in the interface options which i like.

i remember that a 70 took me through SM when i was lvl 32 on my pally and i had to pay 5g for it so i was like ok, but he decided i could not loot, he only though i was there for the xp........i was like heck nah! lol so i turned on auto-loot beat him every time

Paladin macro I made up today:

Code:

/cast [harm] Judgement
/stopcasting
/cast [harm] {Any seal}

Will judge and re-seal... Straight-forward, allows you to get of judgements a little faster...

MY Paladin Macro

Code:

/cast devine Shield
/stopcast Devine Shield
/cast Hearth Stone

lol, I had to

Persen · Mar 31, 2007

@Lord_Phoenix
Unfortunately it wouldn't work, but it would certainly be fun to say when you and your friends compare macros^^

bulldogg13 · Mar 31, 2007

yeah that macro would be awesome, i love bubble hearthing so fun

DDRtists · Mar 31, 2007

Paladins are boring. xP

I have a level 48 I can't stand to play.

bulldogg13 · Mar 31, 2007

aww, i don't think so, i think paladins are one of the best classes, i think becuase i guess i am used to it. i also love warlocks too becuase of their DOTs and being able to have a demon and also...Fear hehe

.

basically for me, i think of it like this

1)Paladins
2)Warlocks
3)Hunters
4)Rogues
5)Warriors
6)Mages
but that is me, i don't want to anger anyone. it is just how i feel the classes are to me.

(havn't played a shaman or a druid or a priest yet)

Persen · Apr 1, 2007

I like mage most, pala is nearly as fun... Shaman, priest and lock is incredibly fun too, atleast for as long as i've played em (up to between lvl 15 and 25)...

Sim · Apr 1, 2007

Warlock ftw.

Although I dearly hate paladins, it is by far the most fun class I have played so far - minus the fact that you suck at ranged combat and attack really slow.

Second is the hunter who can shoot from miles and miles away and one shot mages with Aimed Shot.

Then third I would say is either druid or priest because healing = love. Rogues come next for WSG only. Mages, Shaman, Warlock, then Warrior rank up like that.

Aren't these macros, like, you know... Cheating?

bulldogg13 · Apr 1, 2007

well which macros? macros are basically a set of commands to make things a lot easier to do, that is why blizz added macros. you know so you can do multiple things at once, the best people usually have a lot of macros they make so they can do multple things at once or just make something easier, like i have a macro for healing me, instead of have to click the heal and put on myself i just click the macro and it will heal me, and i don't have to do those 2 things (click and heal). but the macro i showed you guys,
/sit
/stand
/sit
/stand

well i have no idea if that is cheating, i came across that when trying to make some funny macros. so i don't know lol.

Persen · Apr 2, 2007

I consider the rogue exploits cheating - if they work... However the others are legit macros. Not sure in which category to put sit/stand bug^^

Darthfett · Apr 3, 2007

Well if you have presence of mind as a mage, you can make an instant cast sheep.

Code:

/cast Presence of Mind
/cast Polymorph(Rank X)

So what DOES the "/stopcasting" thing do, allow you to cast two things in a row, without having to double click a macro? That'd be nice

Sim · Apr 3, 2007

Stops the useless casting time when activating cooldowns/items, because they do not share a global cooldown.

Well, as Dax said, it allows you to cast a non-global-cd-spell and a ordinary one in sequence. As if you'd click PoM, it activates instantly, but casting still takes about a second. Now, if you pressed ESC, you would still have PoM activated, but skip the casting. This way we can create some interesting macros

Note that it will only work with abilities that do not trigger global CD. Examples are the ones I've used here (Judgement, Pickpocket etc.)
You can see if an ability lacks global cd pretty easily, just use it and see if you get CD on the others. If not, you can cast it before another spell with the /stopcasting trick.

Void · May 30, 2007

This is something I made up for hunters,
/cast Freeze Trap
/stopcasting
/cast Readiness
/stopcasting
/cast Frost Trap (or whatever the slowing one is called)

And another one for mages
/cast Frost Nova
/stopcasting
/cast Cold Snap
/stopcasting
/cast Frost Nova

Slow 'n freeze and a double frost nova! WOOT

When I played WoW, I used some very useful stance-switching macros that would switch you to a specific stance, but if you were in it already it would cast a specific spell. Very handy in PvP if you have talents in Anger Managment:

Battle Stance/Charge

Code:

/script
texture,name,isActive,isCastable = GetShapeshiftFormInfo(1); if isActive then CastSpellByName('Charge(Rank 1)'); else CastSpellByName('Battle Stance()'); end;

Defensive Stance/Taunt

Code:

/script
texture,name,isActive,isCastable = GetShapeshiftFormInfo(2); if isActive then CastSpellByName('Taunt(Rank 1)'); else CastSpellByName('Defensive Stance()'); end;

Berserker Stance/Intercept

Code:

/script
texture,name,isActive,isCastable = GetShapeshiftFormInfo(3); if isActive then CastSpellByName('Intercept(Rank 1)'); else CastSpellByName('Berserker Stance()'); end;

Although I'm pretty sure these are known about, and you'd need to change the levels of the abilities.

Macros...secret macro i know, i think :p
