Single Talent Macro for Each Tier

Recommended Posts

I was working on fixing my shadowburn macro this afternoon, and decided to revisit my Talent Tier Macro's. I had found some for my other classes, but didnt find any for locks so I figured I would share them on here in case anyone was interested. 

 

These allow you to swap out your talents freely, but you don't have to drag the spell to your bars every time. It'll just change the icon and use the new talent you pick. The one issue is that the icon will only change after you use it for the first time AFTER you swap talents. 

 

To get these to work correctly, the macro name needs to match whats referenced in the macro itself.

 

MacroName: Tier2

 

#showtooltip
/use Shadowfury
/use Mortal Coil
/use Demonic Breath
/run local G=GetSpellInfo SetMacroSpell("Tier2", G"Mortal Coil" or G"Shadowfury" or "Demonic Breath")
 
MacroName: Tier3
 
#showtooltip
/use Dark Bargain
/use Sacrificial Pact
/run local G=GetSpellInfo SetMacroSpell("Tier3", G"Sacrificial Pact" or G"Dark Bargain" or "Soul Link")
 
MacroName: Tier4
 
#showtooltip
/use Burning Rush
/use Unbound Will
/use Blood Horror
/run local G=GetSpellInfo SetMacroSpell("Tier4", G"Unbound Will" or G"Burning Rush" or "Blood Horror")
 
I don't have a swappable macro for the other tiers as they either only have one active ability, or I never use anything other than one talent in that tier tongue.png
 
For Tier3, there's obivously only two active abilities, but I kept the third passive ability in the GetSpellInfo so that the icon would update if you tried to use it. I haven't used these in a while, but just after some testing they seem to be working with all of the spells. Let me know if you run into any issues or find some typos. And if anyone knows how to get the icon to update prior to hitting it for the first time, that would be much appreciated! biggrin.png

Awesome, I'll be stealing those!

 

With regard to the Tier 2 macro, I propose you add a /stopcasting clause at the top. Especially in the case of Shadowfury when you need your stuns to be on point. (Example being the first intermission on heroic garrosh).

Arthas Did Nothing Wrong (ADNW) has just begun recruiting (For WotLK Classic) hard-core, casual, rp, pvp, pve, raiders, anything you can think of, you are welcomed here. Although our main focus in ADNW will be progressive raiding, 10 and 25 man and pvp content, we look to have someone for just about anything. Currently we are recruiting for our CORE 10M team composed entirely of irl / internet homies. We are in need of just 1 HEALER (Highly prefer a disc priest with a shadow off spec) and another DPS. Preferably lock or Shadow priest. We are looking to fill our B 10m team entirely, so we can pool together for 25 man’s when it comes time to crush 25m. This guild was founded by a group of tight nit friends recently, who have been around since TBC. WOTLK was our turning point in WoW, and we CANNOT wait to get another crack at this and MAKE IT RIGHT. Come join the adventure of a chill environment full of helpful hands and knowledge. Feel free to reach out to me Via Discord: Daevilmonkiexp#9239 OR Bnet: Daevilmonkie#1280 just let me know you are interested in the guild and we can have a convo! ARTHAS DID NOTHING WRONG!

      Hello everyone! When i downloaded the recent shadowlands expansion, i noticed that my macros no longer worked =0. This is not a single target DPS  macro, this is a Help / Harm selective macro So i did some digging to find out what was goin on, An example of this would be : /cast [help] Innervate ; [harm] Entangling Roots ; Innervate.  This macro utilizes one button for a dual purpose. if i am targeted on friend i innervate them while if i and targeting a opponent it would root them in place. This structure is now broken but has also made things easier in most cases, After doing some digging i discovered some new macros and the new format. Some examples of the new way to write this would be :
       #showtooltip
      /cast [help,nodead][help,nodead]innervate
      /cast [harm,nodead][harm,nodead]Entangling Roots
      #showtooltip
      /cast [help,nodead][help,nodead]Regrowth
      /cast [harm,nodead][harm,nodead]Wrath
      #showtooltip
      /cast [harm,nodead][@target,harm,nodead]Moonfire
      /cast [help,nodead][@target,help,nodead]Rejuvenation
      #showtooltip
      /cast [help,nodead][help,nodead]Wild Growth
      /cast [harm,nodead][harm,nodead]Entangling Roots
      This is what they call a fall through macro, If the first line of code is not available because of a cooldown or if the Help or Harm selection, it will fall through to the next line of code. This works especially well for balance druids, shaman, and hybrid healing classes that use a ton of buttons. You can cut the amount of keys you need press in half which saves space and prevents accidentally pressings the wrong button. I like to pair my spells by the time it takes to cast, Instant casts with instant casts. They also introduces a mouse over macro for heals and rebuffs which is really good for world PVP. One of the better macros iv'e seen is a mouse over Rebirth : 
       #showtooltip Rebirth
      /cast [@mouseover,help]Rebirth;Rebirth
      #showtooltip Remove Corruption
      /cast [target=mouseover,help,nodead][target=target] Remove Corruption
       
      If you are going to try and make your own macro, you should keep in mind
      1: The Global Cool Down or GCD which is the time it takes between 2 casts and
      2: Not all of your spells and trinkets share a GCD, so you are able to cast 2 or 3 spells at the exact same time as long as it doesn't share a GCD.
      I hope this helps!
