I had been wondering how would one manage even better their keybindings in classic which had so many different skills.
Then in my search for good warrior macros I came upon some neat macros where the same macro would for example condense 3 different stance skills into one button.
showtooltip [mod:shift][nomod,stance:1]Overpower;[mod:alt][nomod,stance:2]Revenge;Whirlwind
/use [mod:alt]Defensive Stance;[mod:ctrl]Berserker Stance;[mod]Battle Stance
/use [stance:1]Overpower;[stance:2]Revenge;Whirlwind
With such a macro you can for example among other things use overpower, Revenge and whirlwind depending on the current stance with the same button/keybind
I find it fascinating how much depth this game can have bellow its simple exterior even in 1.xx
Yeah, that’s a very nice macro though it couldn’t exist in vanilla because of way more primitive API of 1.12 client. I personally am too lazy to do that, ising elvui with actionbars switching on stance dance.
Yeah maybe, i was always a poor macro writer. Just recall it was much simplified in tbc and after with square bracket conditions of dead/alive, friendly/hostile target, mouseovers and what not. But then again i may be totally wrong.
Hey, mate. Your macro shows the appropriate tooltip for equipped weapon? I had a problems with tooltips, so I created this macro: #showtooltip
/cast [worn:Bows] Shoot Bow; [worn:Crossbows] Shoot Crossbow; [worn:Guns] Shoot Gun; [worn:Thrown] Throw
Works good, even when I change the type of ranged weapon. And BTW, this last /script in your macro. It removes red massage? Or what?
Not sure about tooltip (I made the macro last night and only briefly tested it to ensure it worked in combat situations before going bed) - I will try have a look tonight if I get a chance, however, im currently in the proccess of making and testing an addon so dunno if I will get an answer back to you today or not!)
Yes, the /script part removes all the “you do not have a crossbow equiped”, “you do not have a gun equipped” etc for the two you are not using
Oh, I got ya. I don’t have this massages. Have red massage only when I spam the key, that it’s not ready yet. If you will not have any appropriate tooltip that shows cooldown and so on, you can try my macro. Just wanted to know, if your way is simpler. Sometimes we don’t need such complex macros.
BTW, usually my macros looks like this: #showtooltip Heroic Strike
/startattack
/cast Heroic Strike
That for keeping autoattack on.
And also mouseover macros are really cool. #showtooltip Charge
/startattack
/cast Battle Stance
/cast [target=mouseover, exists] Charge; Charge
Have now about 20 macros. Warrior problems.
