Macros
Macro are short scripts that can be made to combine, automate; or, modify actions you perform. No add-ons are required for macros and so the only investment required is a bit of typing through the Blizzard UI.
There are several types of macros for the purpose of this discussion we will only be looking at some combat-related macros.
Macro conditionals
- Target conditionals. Modifies the behaviour of a spell based on target information.
- Mouseover, Cursor, Player
- Help, Harm
- Exists
- Environmental conditionals. Modifies the behaviour of a spell based on your location.
- Swimming, Indoors, Outdoors
- Party, Raid, Group
- Player conditionals
- Form, stance (druid, stealth)
- Channel
Action Commands
- Talent
- Cancelaura. Removes buffs.
- Use 13/14
- Stopcasting
Tips and Tricks
- #showtooltip will give the tooltip of the spell in a command and match the icon for that spell on your action bar.
