wow Useful Mage Tower Macros

[Stan 5,239]

Here are some useful Mage Tower macros for Mages, Guardian Druids, and Beast Mastery Hunters.

The player replaced their interrupts with macros that automatically cast the necessary spell on the correct target, removing a bit of complexity from the challenges.

The [@bossX] modifier makes you cast a spell on the X-th boss in the current encounter.

Mage Macros

The following 3 macros can be used during the Sigryn DPS challenge on a Mage.

Macro 1 to Blood of the Father:

#showtooltip /cast [@boss1] Polymorph

Macro 2 to interrupt the Caster:

#showtooltip /cast [@boss2] Counterspell

Macro 3 to slow Jarl:

#showtooltip /cast [@boss3] Slow

Guardian Druid Tank Challenge

Since both Inquisitor Variss and Highlord Kruul are considered "boss1", you can use the following macro to cast Skull Bash. 

#showtooltip
/cast [@boss1] Skull Bash

Beast Mastery Hunter Macros

The following macro mitigates Fel Burst:

#showtooltip
/cast [@boss1] Counter Shot

The second macro interrupts Sonic Scream.

#showtooltip
/cast [@boss2] Scare Beast

Based on the examples above, you can create your own macros. You only need to figure out who boss1 and boss2 are.

The macros were shared by a Reddit user lol_temp_account on r/wow.

Why encourage people to be assisted and therefore bad .. ? It only serves to pull them down.

I know it's not your fault but if Blizzard had any savvy they would either remove macros or disable them in combat.

This is really THE broken feature that prevents users from progressing.

It makes me very sad to see people playing with macros either in PvP or PvE.. 😞

I know it's christmas so i should be nice but this is one of the biggest bull s***t posts i've seen 
and i have seen so many

using macros is a sign of bad player? rly? you know that most addons are basically nothing more then macros?
Healbot and co you can archive the same with macros btw. 

yes its all optional but if you choose to use macros or addons its not a sign of bad play because those tools and there nothing more are a sign of skill because using them shows that you take your time and research about the encounters you wanna progress

all high level players use macros so there all  bad because they use macros? tell that to the world first raiders tell that to the arena world champions tell that to the mdi champions all those high skilled players use macros and to say using macros is for bad players 

 

to be blunt macros and addons allows you to be faster nothing more you still have to learn encounters and learn your to play your class and spec if you cant play macros wont help you and macros wont carry you 

geez such statements makes me angry because it shows how ignorant and uninformed ppl can be 
 

merry christmas to you all

I say it pulls players down because it is.

In the bullshit category, your post holds the palm.

Typical of the guy who refuses to face the truth.

Exactly, and addons are even worse. Thanks to pointed them out.

I never said (or at least didn't meant) that a macro/addon player IS a bad player. I say those things MAKES players bad. Or less good if you prefer.

You kidding, right ? This is precisely the opposite of the sign of skill.. And it doesn't mean necessary they're taking time to do research.. What kind of logic is this ?
Macros and addons are the easy AND lazy way, that's it.
You can deny it, it'll still be true.

You're twisting my words. I was targeting assisted players not confirmed players and you know it.
BUT, because there is a but, if they don't need addons, why using them ?
They are champions ? Champions of what ? Of using addons and macros ?

Again, I don't say every macros/addons user is bad, some of them can play the same with or without, but they are few. You can constate it when addons aren't updated after a big patch. Of course, macros are still here, unfortunately.

And yes, I would tell them to play without using those ridiculous things. It would provides great matches & encounters to watch instead of those boring half-bot things.

Sure they have a good level, but you're on of those people thinking they are gods playing like this ?
How many do you think would be totally LOST without macros/addons ? Spoiler alert => a LOT.

You think every "famous" team players are that good ? You can't judge a player level using those assisted things.

So you'll tell me "Hey, every top players are using those kind of things, every players in the ranking things doing it !". Yes, and it's worth absolutely NOTHING to true, honnest players.

THINK and use your thoughts wisely instead of just watching the surface.

It makes me laugh to see people amazed by guys who use tools for assisted people.

You're talking about tournaments & co ? You know why they're using this at least ? It's because it's allowed and not using this would be a HUGE disadvantage (cause yes, macros and addons gives HUGE UNFAIR advantages).

It's allowed, it's like that.
I'm just saying that a player actually respecting himself won't use it and will deserve anything he's accomplished.

Woah that's a huge bad faith. Macros and addons are doing a huge part of the job for you. If you can't play your class, macros can do it for you till a certain point.
In the other hand, macros and addons allowing to be faster is nothing more than an unfair advantage.

I've tested them (of course) and this is nothing more than huge bullshit. I killed people without knowing what I was doing when I specifically tried a rogue for example (back in the days when I never played a rogue yet).

So I was totally dopped and learned absolutely NOTHING. I did this test on purpose to test my theory, which is perfectly right. I've tested it over a year, on almost every classes in PvP AND PvE (macros + addons).

There is many One Shot macros. There is a LOT of "easy" macros to target this or target that and use X thing without even doing any effort. THIS, is bullshit, not the truth I said.
And this is only few examples.

The only reason you refuses to hear reason is because you're one of those users (like almost everyone on WoW I suppose, so not blaming you..).

so i guess world first guilds without macros and addons are bad players? you know noone forces YOU to play with macros addons or even keybinds ! you do you mate, let others do what they want!

Maybe the better thing would be to just make Macros more accessible and have the game talk to you about them.

But wait, you still use F1-F5 to target? You still tab to target? Seems to me you dont understand how macros work. Macros are such a huge part of the game. The above items are just macros built into the code. I dont think understand how macros improve the game..The best players in the world use more macros than anyone. Do some research before you post nonsense.

Out ofcuriosityy, I went back through your old post.. Damn man do you ever.. I mean ever have anything positive to say? You are Toxic AF.

I was on your side until you diminished tab-targetting. Nothing wrong with that. Are you saying you never tab target even when fighting mobs out in the open? You make a focus macro for them too? 🙂
