[script] Any workaround for conditional spellcast?

Hi.

I want to create macro-script like this:

/script if (UnitBuff("player","Aspect of the Dragonhawk")==nil) then CastSpellByName("Aspect of the Dragonhawk") end

But CastSpellByName is protected since 2.0. So, any workarounds for this purpose except of process memory cheating?

There is no way to do it. Aspects are not like stances/forms and cannot be verified if active or no with macro conditional.
CastSpellByName/ID is not protected only for pet spells (warlock/hunter/dk etc) so you can't do it with LUA for character spells
The only thing you can do is to make it spammable with "!" but will trigger gcd every time
/use !Aspect of the Dragonhawk

Yes. In cata aspects were changed into stances and you could use /stopmacro [stance:x], but in wotlk i don't think there is a way around it since aspects are not stances.
