    1) While it supressed the TEXT errors, I'd still get the verbal "That item is not ready yet" or "Its still recharging".
    2) Alt-Cast to self cast is disabled with a macroed spell. So casting a sequence on yourself means either scripting it in (I hit 205 characters with the anti-error lines) or going natural


    Took a look at the 'shackle macro' discussed above and posted in that thread about it. Might as well add this tid-bit as well from that same post:

    Code:
    #showtooltip Scorpid Sting
/clearfocus [target=focus,dead] 
/clearfocus [target=focus,noexists] 
/focus [target=focus,noexists]
/cast [button:2] Scorpid Sting
/cast [button:1,target=focus] Scorpid Sting

    Would this work for a hunter version to keep Scorpid sting on something that's nasty and hits hard?
    Don't forget you need to add a rank when using spells...so should be: (If I'm correct)
    Code:
    #showtooltip Scorpid Sting()
/clearfocus [target=focus,dead] 
/clearfocus [target=focus,noexists] 
/focus [target=focus,noexists]
/cast [button:2] Scorpid Sting()
/cast [button:1,target=focus] Scorpid Sting()

    Re: Useful Macros

    Not putting the rank in there defaults to the highest rank. Which means nothing with Scorpid sting since there is only 1 rank of that spell anyways.

    Saves 2 characters no putting () in there

    It was a confirmed casualty some time ago.

    Re: Useful Macros

    Alright...here's something I've been playing with and I'm having some issues.

    Code:
    #showtooltip Kill Command
/assist [target=pet]
/cast Kill Command
/targetlasttarget
    That's the short form of another macro that has your pet use kill command on its target. This is handy because if your target is different from your pet's (like in PvP or pet offtanking) then you can't use kill unless you change targets.

    The longer version is:
    Code:
    #showtooltip Kill Command
/focus
/assist [target=pet]
/cast Kill Command
/target [target=focus]
/clearfocus
    It does the same thing except it puts the focus around your original target so you can return to it easily.

    Now here's the problem. Using the Scorpid/Viper sting focusing I can't really use the focus/clearfocus macro because I'd lose my sting target. On the other hand I also can't use the shortform macro easily because it makes it unusable while solo (if your target is your pet's target then targeting your last target will target blank air). Any ideas on how to get a kill macro working properly without using focus?

    Some other things I'm think of are

    Code:
    #showtooltip Distracting Shot
/cast Distraction Shot
/stopattack
    Code:
    #showtooltip Freezing Trap
/cast Freezing Trap
/stopattack
    Simple and clean to prevent those stupid autoattack trap breaks.
    My sanity is not in question...

    Re: Useful Macros

    Try replacing:
    Code:
    /targetlasttarget
    with:
    Code:
    /targetlasttarget [targetlasttarget=exists]
    This is purely guesswork on my part...but try it.

    Re: Useful Macros

    Apparently /stopattack does nothing. Anyone know the line to stop autoattack?

    Also when I changed the /targetlasttarget to add [targetlasttarget=exsist] I got a targetlast isn't a valid target for the modifier.

    Re: Useful Macros

    New 2.1 mount macro:

    /use [flyable,outdoors] <Flying Mount>; [outdoors] <Regular Mount>

    Select the '?' as the macro icon and the image will display the flying mount in outlands and the other mount in azeroth.

    Re: Useful Macros

    Improved Mount Macro

    Use the ? Macro Icon and it will change depending where you are

    #showtooltip [flyable,outdoors] <flying mount>
    #showtooltip [outdoors] <land mount>
    /use [flyable,outdoors] <flying mount>; [outdoors] <land mount>
    /dismount


    That'll modify the floating tool tip as well.
