Druids have a lot of options when it comes to moving around, from skyriding forms to actual mounts, ground forms, etc. Here’s a player-made easy traveling macro that solves all your form-selection problems – works everywhere and never fails!
A bit of a community combo, TheLinuxFanatic looked around, tested, and put other players’ disparate efforts together, coming up with a Druid travel macro that works everywhere and does everything they need.
How Does it Work?
This macro is adjusted to work in all different environments. Pressing the macro will do the following based on your location:
- In Flyable Areas:
- Standing Still: Summons a random favorite mount from your favorites list.
- Moving: Shapeshifts into Flight Form for instant flying.
- In Water:
- Shapeshifts into Aquatic Form for swimming.
- Non-Flyable Areas (Outdoors):
- Shapeshifts into the mountable form of Travel Form, which is usable as a ground mount.
- Indoors:
- Shapeshifts into Cat Form.
- Flying:
- In Combat: The macro won’t function to prevent accidental dropping from the sky.
- Not in Combat: Pressing the macro will drop you out of Flight Form. If mounted, it will dismount you and shift into Flight Form immediately.
The Macro
If you haven’t used macros yet, you can create them by simply pressing Esc -> Macros or by typing /macro in the chat. Then click New and paste the following text:
#showtooltip
/stopmacro [flying,combat]
/run C_MountJournal.SummonByID(0)
/run UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
/cast [indoors] Cat Form; [nocombat,outdoors,advflyable][swimming]Travel Form;[outdoors]Mount Form;
Other Solutions
There is an addon called LiteMount that many players use, but it still has some issues with indoor Cat Form. However, you can tweak it to make it work as well.
Some players think the mount factor is useless because Flight Form is instant. However, with this macro, you can choose whether to use the regular mount or Flight Form, depending on whether you are standing or moving.
