1. [Guide] A Complete Macro Guide for Hunters




    Today i write this guide to share with the Warmane Community some of my Macros that i made myself and tested properly and that i personally use on my hunter.

    These macros are aimed for every player of any degree of experience and knowledge of this game.


    I have divided this guide to 4 Sections: General Macros, Pet Related macros, Macros for Traps and some Misc/fun macros.

    _______________________________



    Important!: In order for some macros listed down here to work you need to download and install this addon Here: "Macro Toolkit".

    Here's a quick guide on how to use this addon: Link.

    6. Scatter Shot:

    Spoiler: Show
    #showtooltip Scatter Shot

    This macro is just for Focus Scatter with a pet Control command in there to prevent your pet from breaking Scatter, usually your pet automatically stop when you cast scatter/trap but sometimes they don't.





    7. Concussive Shot:

    Spoiler: Show
    #showtooltip Concussive Shot

    /stopcasting

    /cast [@focus,harm] Concussive Shot

    _______________________________

    _______________________________



    Now that we're done with Shots (jokes aside) let's see some other macros:



    1. Feign Death:

    Spoiler: Show
    #showtooltip Feign Death

    /stopcasting

    /stopcasting

    On to my Pet Macros:



    1. My “Super Dupper All-in-one 420 Blaze it” pet Abilities Macro:

    (this macro Require an Addon to work Properly)



    Spoiler: Show
    #show [pet:Your_Pet's_Name]Your_Pet's_Ability;

    /cast [pet:Your_Pet's_Name,mod:shift,@focus,exists]Your_Pet's_Ability; Your_Pet's_Ability;

    /petattack [@pettarget,noexists]

    _______________________________



    This macro will cast your summoned pet's ability (make sure to put in all your pets) on your target if not using any modifier, and cast your pet's ability on your focus when holding Shift.

    Here's an Example of this macro with only one pet:



    Spoiler: Show
    #show [pet:Madexx]clench;

    /petpassive

    /petfollow [@pettarget,exists]

    /cast [pet:Madexx,mod:shift,@focus,exists]Clench; Clench;

    /petattack [@pettarget,noexists]

    2. All-in-One Pet Control Macro

    /cast [mod:ctrl]Cower

    /stopmacro [modifier]

    /petfollow [@pettarget,exists]

    /petattack [@pettarget,noexists]

    _______________________________



    This macro is easy, i personally bound it to the Mouse Middle Button (b3), Using this Macro without a modifier will command your pet to attack your target, clicking it again will Call back your pet.

    - Using this macro when holding Shift will use your pet's Trinket (Bullheaded, for Cunning Spec)

    _______________________________

    Traps don't require many Macros that's why i only have two:



    1. Freezing Trap Macro:

    #showtooltip Freezing Trap

    /cast !Trap Launcher

    /stopcasting

    /stopcasting

    _______________________________



    Pretty Standard modifier-based macro for all the traps, the feature of this macro is that it will put your trap on the ground not launch it (Trap launcher deactivated), make sure to click it a second time to re-activate Trap Launcher.









    Some Miscellaneous Macros yet very useful:



    1. Toggle Character Panel out combat/ Use an Ability in-combat:

    Spoiler: Show
    #showtooltip Your_Spell_Name

    /use [combat] Your_Spell_Name

    /run if not InCombatLockdown() then ToggleCharacter("PaperDollFrame") end

    /run UIErrorsFrame:Clear()

    _______________________________



    Just Replace Your_Spell_Name by the Spell you want to use In-Combat only such as Rapid fire or whatever you'd like, and it will toggle your Character Panel if you're out of Combat (rarely in warmane).







    2. Human Tracking:

    Spoiler: Show
    #showtooltip

    /run SetTracking(7, true)

    /run SetTracking(7, false)



    _______________________________



    Instead of enabling the humanoid tracker manually, you can use this macro.

    First click will set your Humanoid Track on, the second one will turn it off.



    Macro Suggested by Aurumwz.






    3.All-in-One Misdirection Macro:

    Spoiler: Show
    #showtooltip

    /cast [@focus,help][help][@pet,exists] Misdirection



    _______________________________



    If your have a focus, and it's friendly unit, Misdirection will be cast on it.

    If you don't have a focus target, Misdirection will be cast target if it's a friendly unit.

    If both your target and focus target are not friendly units, misdirection will be cast on your pet.



    Macro Suggested by Aurumwz.

  3. Hey Kid, nice work man;)

    noticed some lines that are not so useful

    /cancelaura feign death,
    you don't need this line cause ppl tend to spam this and sometime they want to stay FDed for more than 1 sec, and it may take them out of it, for example opponents being bad at targeting so it gives their healer more time to heal em up, and if you want to cancel feign death you just have to press something.

    Also

    /cancelaura Camouflage,

    You wont be able to use Camo till the CD is done, and CD is the same as the duration of the Camo, so if you are in Camo you CD isnt up and if you are out of Camo before CD ends then obviously you cant use it.

    Other than that this looks great;)

  4. i use /cancelaura Camouflage to cancel it, sometimes i need to cancel to take the flag for example or to loot something without having to manually cancel camouflage. For Feign Death, you're right :p i'll remove it.
    Edited: February 17, 2016 Reason: furiz was right... he was right!

  5. that's a pretty neat Guide you got there and some really interesting macros, Good Job.

  6. Woohoo! finally a nicely formatted guide, Great work buds.

  7. WOW very helpful kid keep up the good work !!!


  8. I would like to reccomend these 2 macros that I use:

    Human Tracking:
    Insteand of the track near the minimap, u can use this macro:
    /run SetTracking(7, true)
    /run SetTracking(7, false)

    FIrst click will set ur Humanoid Track on, the second one will track it off.

    Misdirection AllInOneButtonMacro:

    #showtooltip
    /cast [@focus,help][help][@pet,exists] Misdirection

    If your have a focus, and he is friendly, Misdirection will target the focus.
    If your dont have a friendly focus, you will cast Misdirection to ur target, if it's friendly.
    If your target and focus are not friendly, you will cast misdirection to your pet!

    Greetings Travelers!
