WoW Macros

back

Macros allow you to create personal and cool special commands that you can do at the touch of a button. There are many possible uses for macros.

Here are other possible uses for macros:
- repeat text you don't want to type again
- repeat text for online auctions
- make a funny saying
- perform a list of commands

Some macro examples:
Action Bar Page Switching
In order to change from any action bar page to action bar page 2 use the following macro
/script CURRENT_ACTIONBAR_PAGE=2;
/script ChangeActionBarPage();

Attack
/startattack
This will act like a normal Attack button, except that it won't toggle autoattack off in combat (hit escape if you need to do that). Best when combined with the icon, so it'll display your current weapon.

Mount
/use [nomounted,outdoors] Whistle of the Black War Raptor
This will attempt to mount if you are outside and not mounted.

/dismount
This will dismount you if you are mounted.

/userandom [nomounted,nocombat] , ,
/dismount
This will randomly use one of the mounts listed in the macro if you are not mounted and not in combat, if you are mounted it will dismount you, otherwise it does nothing. This won't work for Paladins and Warlock's Summon Charger/Dreadsteed, but substituting /userandom with /castrandom does work, as follows.

/castrandom [nomounted,nocombat] Summon Charger/Dreadsteed , ,
/dismount
For Paladins and Warlocks. Fortunately, /castrandom works for items as well.

/dismount [mounted]
/stopmacro [mounted]
/castrandom [nomodifier:ctrl] , , etc ...
/castrandom [modifier:ctrl] , , etc ...
This is like the random mount macros above, but will choose a random flying mount if Ctrl is held down when it is clicked otherwise it will randomly pick a non-flying mount.

Fishing
/equip [noequipped:Fishing Pole, nomodifier:alt] Seth's Graphite Fishing Pole;
/equip [modifier:alt] Mana Wrath;
/equip [modifier:alt] Lamp of Peaceful Radiance;
/cast [equipped:Fishing Pole, nomodifier:alt] Fishing;
This macro is handy in that on a regular click (or hotkey press) it will equip your fishing pole (simply change Seth's Graphite Fishing Pole to the name of whichever pole you use), and when pressed again will begin fishing.

On an alt-click (or alt+hotkey) it will re-equip your normal weapon(s). If you use a two hand weapon, simply take out the third line and change Mana Wrath to your own main weapon, otherwise if you use two change Mana Wrath and Lamp of Peaceful Radiance to your own particular weapons. This macro also avoids any error messages from popping up. You could also add to this macro to have it swap out a Lucky Fishing Hat or gloves with the fishing enchant as well, if you had them.
