Quote/cast Maul
/castrandom Mangle (Bear), Lacerate, Swipe (Bear), Maul

Thats just a 1 button spam it always seems to do the job on a couple of targets  ... More than that it just becomes a swipe,swipe nd swipe again if I have the rage spare I also use the macro to dump it and start again with the swipes. Its nasty and not perfect tho it works.
It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shakes, the shakes become a warning. It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion

QuoteWell i aint a real macro user.. But i am trying to use a few the last  few weeks.
 
At the moment i only use 1 for tanking, i really use it when i am on add  duty so i can look around for the next one a bit more easier.
 
As dps i don't use them for now, with the reason i don't have a nice one  for my rotation and it keeps me focused/awake as i have to press  buttons:narnar:
 
But here are the 2 i use as Tank:
 
    Code:
    #showtooltip
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/castsequence reset=4 Mangle (Bear), Lacerate, Swipe (Bear), Lacerate, Faerie Fire (Feral)
/run UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1
 This one is for standard tanking and getting rage, this one will  keep your rage up.
 
    Code:
    #showtooltip
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/castsequence reset=4 Mangle (Bear), Lacerate, Swipe (Bear), Lacerate, Faerie Fire (Feral)
/cast Maul
/run UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1
 This one i use for boss tanking when i have already build up some  rage, as for this one i need to get hit etc. It is almost the same as  the first one but this one also uses "Maul" that creates loads of thread  but also uses loads of rage. So if you want to use this one then make  sure you have enough rage and still enough rage comming in.                   

Fixed with a quote :)

Treach

/cast [@mouseover][] Growl;

Casts growl on your mouseover target or, if not mosueover, casts growl onyour current target. Quite useful for aggro grabbing.

/castsequence reset=combat Survival Instincts, Frenzied Regeneration;

Good little cd macro that resets out of combat, but otherwise casts SI then FR alternatly

With the current system it's quite hard to macro anything else in. I do have Barkskin macro'd to my aoe attacks so I get the most use out of it with aoe and I can always hit it during the GCD to trigger.

I base my macros around this template and so I can cram in as many abilities as possible on 1 button:

#showtooltip
/cast [mod:alt] SPELL4; [mod:ctrl] SPELL3; [mod] SPELL2; SPELL1;

Hope this helps.
