Macro help.

I need help..
i know it has been posted somewhere before, but i cant seem to find it back.
so here it goes, asking for it again.

a macro that, when you start to cast, lets say, frostbolt, a trinket, in my case the ToEP, automatically activates if its not on a cooldown.
anybody know how to make such a macro?
thanks alot in advance.

Re: Macro help.

I have seen this macro for activating both of your trinkets and then casting frostbolt. Item 13 or 14 refers to trinket slot 1 and 2 so you only need to include one of the lines in your macro - the one that points to the trinket slot where you have equipped the ToEP in.

/script if GetInventoryItemCooldown("player", 13) == 0 then UseInventoryItem(13); SpellStopCasting(); end
/script if GetInventoryItemCooldown("player", 14) == 0 then UseInventoryItem(14); SpellStopCasting(); end
/cast Frostbolt(Rank 10)

I can't test it myself, but that should be what you want.

Re: Macro help.

i'd like a macro that charges the enemy, hits hamstring, then change to berserker stance and does bloodrage and then MS, after that berserker rage if the opponent is not a rogue, fear user or a paladin. then it would do whirlwind, and to top it all of use recklessness and /moon, /rofl, /pwndnuub at the same time.

it would really help kthx

Re: Macro help.

They nerfed the ability to make such macros in 1.9.

However, I have heard that if you create a shaman he will keep playing and level up for you while you go out and buy the stuff yourself.

Re: Macro help.

Re: Macro help.

What macros are you interested in making?

You can make some really nice ones with the new macro language.

Re: Macro help.

#show Talisman of Ephemeral Power
/use 13/14
/stopcasting
/cast Frostbolt

This will show the cooldown on the talisman and cast frostbolt, when the trinket is on cooldown it wont be popped(cause it cant).

NOTE: 13/14 is the two trinket slots, 13 is the upper slot and 14 is the lower slot. change to: /use 13 or /use 14 wichever match the slot you have ToEP in.

If I have TOEP in 13 and ZHC in 14, will it use the one that is ready? Or only TOEp?

It is no longer possible to make conditional logic on cooldowns in macros, so no - it isn't possible to make a single macro that either activates trinket 1 or 2 based on which ever is not on cooldown.

Re: Macro help.

Actually, it is.

/use 13
/stopcasting
/use 14
/stopcasting
/cast Fireball

And there you go. You'll activate the upper trinket first, if it is on cooldown, you'll pop the lower trinket. Easy as that. smile

Re: Macro help.

Have you tested it?

From what I've read on the forums, if a spellcast fails during a macro then the entire macro fails. If it does work, then I guess activating a trinket doesn't qualify as a "spell cast" and then I stand corrected smile

EDIT:
Ah wait, I'm being silly here. Actions that does not have an effect on the GCD will of course work with this.
