So, there are 4 separate shooting abilities. One for bows, crossbows, guns and thrown. How to make a combined macro for all of them. So it will use appropriate ability for currently equipped ranged weapon.
It will be like:
#showtooltip Shoot Bow
/cast Shoot Bow
/cast Shoot Crossbow
/cast Shoot Gun
/cast Throw
Or I need to use like this:
/cast Shoot Bow; Shoot Crossbow; Shoot Gun; Throw
Just don’t know a lot, how macros work.
And BTW, /startattack works only with melee attacks?
How abou something like /use slot X? Or something that way
/cast Shoot Bow
/cast Shoot Crossbow
/cast Shoot Gun
/cast Throw
Works and it’s what I use for my rogue.

Don’t know a lot about use slots and ranged weapons. It’s good in using trinkets in BfA, but in Classic. Maybe someone tried.
Thanks for confirming about /cast Shoot Bows /cast Shoot Crossbows and so on.
The next thing about #showtooltip. If I type #showtooltip Shoot Bows, will it show things like global cooldowns, if I use Crossbow currently.
you also have the possibility to open spellbook, go to general (first tab) and drag the Shoot icon to the actionbar. it will work regardless of your ranged weapon and also automatically change icon if you change your bow for a crossbow
You need to use [equipped:bows] etc conditions for proper macro.
I tried this:
#showtooltip
/cast [worn:Bows] Shoot Bow; [worn:Crossbows] Shoot Crossbow; [worn:Guns] Shoot Gun; [worn:Thrown] Throw
It worked. It shows appropriate ability for worn weapon.
Now I’m trying to figure, how to add [target=mouseover, exists] to this macro.
I usually type like this [target=mouseover, exists] Shoot Bow; Shoot Bow, but it not works with current macro. It shoots only with mouseover, if I delete second Shoot Bow, but it doesn’t want to shoot on targeted enemy. And there is only 255 characters limit, so mouseovering every ability for crossbows, guns and so on will not fit in 255 limit.
