Made some decent macros a while back, thought id share.
Misdirection macro:
#showtooltip misdirection
/y Misdirection to %t
/cast Misdirection
Line one shows the tooltip of the spell on the hotbar button.
Line two yells who the misdirect goes to with the help of %t.
Line three casts the spell.
Rapid Fire + trinket macro:
#showtooltip Rapid Fire
/cast Rapid Fire
/stopcasting
/use Abacus of Violent Odds
Line one shows the tooltip of the spell on the hotbar button.
Line two casts the spell.
Line three makes you stop casting spells. This one is optional.
Line four uses the trinket, or any other item.
More to come later.

Didn't know about the #showtooltip command - and it's something I've always thought would be a nice feature!
Thanks Tan :thumbsup2:
Btw, if you just use the spell/ability name - does it automatically show the tool tip for the highest rank? And can one also specify a lower rank if one would want that for some reason?
Havent tested that, but i guess you just do 'spellname(rank x)'
edit: Guess i had tested it, on the random multi shot macro.
Heres the rest of em.
Raptor Strike + Wing Clip
#showtooltip Raptor Strike
/cast Raptor Strike
/cast Wing Clip
If Raptor Strike is on CD or cant be cast yet it will apply Wing Clip to the target.
Else Raptor Strike will hit.
Random rank of Multi Shot:
#showtooltip Multi-Shot(Rank 4)
/castrandom Multi-Shot(Rank 5),Multi-Shot(Rank 4)
You can use this to preserve mana in a bossfigh for example, youll loose some DPS but will last longer without having to FD+drink or take a mana pot. Choose ranks depending on your mana regen while in combat.
/castrandom works on all sorts of spells, you could do the same to arcane shot if you wanted to.
TSA or Aspect of the Hawk:
/cast [nomodifier] Trueshot Aura
/cast [modifier:Ctrl] Aspect of the Hawk
Will cast TSA if you just click it normally, if you hold down Ctrl while clicking it it will cast the aspect.
Viper or Hawk:
/cast [nomodifier] Aspect of the Viper
/cast [modifier:Ctrl] Aspect of the Hawk
Will cast Viper if you just click it normally, if you hold down Ctrl while clicking it it will cast Hawk.
You can use other buttons as modifiers to, Alt and Shift works also, but only those.
So you could do the last two macros like this:
/cast [nomodifier] Trueshot Aura
/cast [modifier:Ctrl] Aspect of the Hawk
/cast [modifier:Alt] Aspect of the Viper
/cast [modifier:Shift] Aspect of the Pack
The modifier function can be used for several things, i once made a macro for the misdirect that looked like this:
#showtooltip misdirection
/target [modifier:Ctrl] Jorgen
/y Misdirection to %t
/cast Misdirection
/target [modifier:Ctrl] Nightbane
This was so i could use the macro as usual on other encounters, just do the targeting manually but on the nightbane fight i just hold Ctrl while casting it and it would cast automaticly on the MT and then target nightbane.

/script UIErrorsFrame:Hide()
/use Bloodlust Brooch
/cast [target=pettarget] Kill Command
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
/script UIErrorsFrame:Show()
/cast Steady Shot
Should I understand any of that? :crying:
Sorry it was a steady shot macro I posted for another member whilst talking to them in game. It tries to use a trinket (Bloodlust Brooch) when it is available and casts Kill when it is available, then casts Steady Shot. If you havce 2 trinkets with a 'use' effect then you can add another line like the one for Bloodlust Brooch just underneath. The rest of the macro simply turns off error frames should the trinket or kill not be available. Helps to maximise DPS.

No, not at early levels :)
Macros are made to make your life easier, so by clicking one button the character does x amount of things.
You will get them someday, depending on how interested you are on them.
Forgot to post a reply. Cheers for that Paul.
:D :D

I have found when using this macro that on Occasion my Auto Shoot stops working and i cannot get it to start again until either the next fight or when the pet uses a kill command.
Or
It's a bug and bugger all to do with that :D
What does the castsequence macro do?
Allows you to choose aspect by clicking through one button instead of having all the aspects around in your UI.
