cos when i do use AR, its usually right infront of an evis, rather than always behind a SS, either way its a waste of a bind

Hello, just resurected my rogue after around 5-6 years and a deletion of unactivity, having a blast and found gearing up really easy.
Having ton's of fun with years worth of changes and new abilities (last time i played rogue it was 31-8-12 seal fate and Meandro videos lol) but i wonder if it is possible to do a certain macro.
I have been trying to no avail and what i want it to do is:

If i press the button with combo points on target and no recuperate on me, i want it to cast recuperate.
However, if i have a recuperate effect up on me, then instead of recuperate, cast evicerate instead.
Ie: i do my openers and use a 5 point recoup, quickly get another 5 combo points and press the same key to do a 5 point evicerate instead.
I know it wont work, but along the lines of:

#show Recuperate
/cast [exists, recuperate] Eviscerate
/cast Recuperate

Silly but you get the idea, thanks in advance for any help, although i have a feeling it is not possible and im being too lasy ;)

Very situational as macro..you don't want always to use Evis with rec up,there are many others prio :P Sometimes you want also to use evi before 5 pt recup lol..Personally i don't know how to do what you're LF,but my advice is use 2 separate keys and gg.

P.S. Welcome back,brother!

Is it possible to have an Auto Attack macro so auto attack works normally where it'll target and then focus. Then if you press, say, shift and 1 it would shadowstep? Just want to clean up my screen seen as I use shift 1 for shadowstep. It would be good to fuse the two together, if at all possible, I have tried but no sucess. Would be great if someone could help

Anyone who knows how to macro TOTT to be cast on the closest friendly player in my party?

Just to have as a slack macro so I dont have to keep changing my teammates names in the macro all the time.

If you're a slacker just go for the TotT focus macro instead of the target=player and GG lol

Not sure if these have been mentioned in here but they're pretty basic macros.

#showtooltip Dismantle
/cast [nomodifier] Dismantle
/cast [modifier:alt, target=focus] Dismantle
/stopmacro [nomodifier]

As you can tell, if you don't hold alt down it dismantles your current target, if you do hold it down it dismantles your focus.

#showtooltip Blind
/cast [nomodifier] Blind
/cast [modifier:alt, target=focus] Blind
/stopmacro [nomodifier]

Same as above, without holding alt it blinds current target holding alt it blinds focus.

#showtooltip Gouge
/cast [nomodifier] Gouge
/cast [modifier:alt, target=focus] Gouge
/stopmacro [nomodifier]

Guess what it's the same as! Hold alt and it gouges focus, don't hold it and it gouges current target.

I like basic macros. They're fun. And yes, they are all the same except for the attack that's used.

Few advanced macro's for PvP

Off gcds: (eg. SD-->CS will do CS at the very same time as SD, dont have to wait for the action bar swap delay to perform CS, due to SD is off gcd)

#show Shadow dance
/cast Premeditation
/castsequence reset=59, Shadow Dance, Cheap Shot;
/startattack
/use [stance:3] 13

#show Shadow dance
/cast Premeditation
/castsequence reset=59, Shadow Dance, Garrote;
/Startattack
/use [stance:3] 13

#show Shadowstep
/target focus
/castsequence reset=23, Shadowstep, Kick;
/targetlasttarget

On gcds:

#show Redirect
/target focus
/castsequence reset=59, Redirect, Kidney Shot;
/targetlasttarget

Bindpad macros: (clean actionbars, same keybind for eg. BS/AB depending on stance)

/cast [stance:1/3] Garrote; Kidney Shot

/cast [stance:1/3] Ambush; Backstab

/cast [stance:0] Eviscerate; [stance:1] Cheap Shot; [stance:3] Cheap Shot;

/cast [stance:0] Hemorrhage; [stance:1] Sap; [stance:3] Eviscerate;

/cast [stance:1/3] Premeditation; Vanish

/Cast Shadow Dance
/use [stance:3] 14 <--- Using trinks
/use [stance:3] 13

Set focus targets in arena: (usually binded to F1, F2 and F3)
/Focus arena1
/Focus arena2
/Focus arena3

I'm no expert at writing macros, but after an afternoon messing around I did manage to create this [could probably be cleaned up but I'm not very good with script writing]:

#showtooltip
/castsequence [stealth] Shadowstep, Sap
/castsequence [combat] reset=24 Shadowstep, Shiv
/cast [nocombat, nostealth] Stealth


Basic breakdown is that if you're stealthed then this will cast shadowstep on first press, then sap on second. good for reaching healers before they join the fight and getting sap off.
If you're in combat however and still have shadowstep it'll SS you to your target then shiv on second press.
if you're not in combat nor stealth then it'll put you in stealth.

like I say, I'm no expert and I don't know if anyone else will have any use for it but I thought I'd share anyway.

Anyone know how to make a macro for Snd and Recuperate together?

I tried this one but it doesnt work (im no marco expert)

#showtooltip
/cast Recuperate
/cast [modifier:alt] Slice and Dice

Help please :)


Try this:
#showtooltip
/cast [mod:alt] Slice and Dice; Recuperate

Tested and that one works

Edit: testing and spell checking.

I've stolen this macro from hunter-wiki.
It's for those, who are lasy like me and don't like to rewrite your Tricks macro:

It's a pair of fellow macros:
1st
/run ToT = UnitName("target")
/run if not InCombatLockdown() then EditMacro('TotT', nil, nil, '/cast [@'.. ToT ..']Tricks of the Trade', nil); print('Tricks of the Trade set to : ' .. ToT); else print('Cannot change TotT now!'); end;

Second, called TotT.
You only need to create it, 1st macro will write text in it by it's own.

What does the macro?
You target a "Billy". Hit the 1st macro.
Your second macro will become:
/cast [@Billy]Tricks of the Trade

Tricks of the Trade macro useful with T13 gear. Casts Tricks of the Trade on your focus target.
#showtooltip Tricks of the Trade
/cast [target=focus] Tricks of the Trade
/raid Tricks of the Trade on %f

#showtooltip Tricks of the Trade
/cast [target=focus] Tricks of the Trade
/raid Tricks of the Trade on %f


Could do it with a mouseover too, since sometimes you got two tanks and you don't want to give the aggro to the same tank all the time, do you. ^.^

#showtooltip
/tar [@mouseover,exists,help,player][@focus,exists,player,help][]
/cast Tricks of the Trade
"/s (or /raid or whatever you'd like) TotT on %t"
/targetlasttarget
"/stopmacro [harm]
/targetlasttarget"


All text between quotation marks can be removed, altered or even obliterated if that'd make you happy, the macro will still function correctly if you didn't put any weird commands in between.

Targets mouseover (if friendly player), otherwise focus (again, if friendly player), else target. Tricksing (lol new verb) him, and telling party or raid or whoever you'd like to inform about it, can leave it out too. Last but not least, targetting last target as if nothing happened so you can keep the dps up.

Added last two lines in case your target was the one you tricksed, than you might of not wanted to lose target for some reason I am not aware of, but could always be, and you're able to keep him targetted. Could leave those out of course.
