Hunters: I Can Haz Action Bar Space?
August 10, 2009 at 12:24 AM - World of Warcraft
And now for hunters! I hear a lot of people complain about the lack of bar space, especially for this class, so I tend to stick modifier macros where ever possible (and whenever the abilities "fit" together)!
If you don't know what a modifier macro is, here's a basic one.
#showtooltip /cast [modifier:alt] Disengage; Wing Clip
This one will cast Wing Clip as its default, but, if I hold Alt, I can then cast Disengage! Neat, huh?
I also use modifier macros (using that exact layout) for Distracting Shot/Kill Shot, Flare/Volley, and Aspect of the Pack/Aspect of the Cheetah. :3 (You can do the same thing with traps, too... But I like seeing all my trap buttons, haha.)
And so, onto other hunter-y macros!
Starting with the ranged abilities!
#showtooltip Hunter's Mark /cast [harm] Hunter's Mark; /focus [help]
Casts Hunter's Mark when an enemy is targeted. If you have an ally targeted, this macro will make him/her your focus target. Why did I do that? Well, it's for the next macro...
#showtooltip Misdirection /cast [target=focus] Misdirection
I'm too lazy to change the "target=" to the tank's name every time I get into a group. So, I just make the tank my focus target. Problem solved! 8D
#showtooltip Steady Shot /console Sound_EnableSFX 0 /cast !Auto Shot /cast Steady Shot /console Sound_EnableSFX 1 /script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
The "Steady Shot Spam" macro. Doesn't have that *click!* sound when you mash the button and removes the error frame (the red text that pops up).
#showtooltip /cast [modifier:alt] Viper Sting; [modifier:ctrl] Scorpid Sting; Serpent Sting
All of my Stings in one button! Default shows Serpent, holding Alt casts Viper, and holding Control casts Scorpid.
...And now for pet macros!
#showtooltip /cast [modifier:alt] Revive Pet; [nopet] Call Pet; [pet] Dismiss Pet
The "Call Pet" macro. If your pet is already out, Dismiss Pet will show up instead. Holding Alt casts Revive Pet.
#showtooltip Feed Pet /cast [nocombat] Feed Pet /use [nocombat] Smoked Talbuk Venison
The "Feed Pet" macro. Just replace the second line with whatever food you want.
/cast Bestial Wrath /cast Rapid Fire /cast Kill Command /use 13 /use 14 /cast Blood Fury
The "I WIN!" button. XD Casts Bestial Wrath, Rapid Fire, Kill Command, both of your trinkets and (Orc only) Blood Fury in one global cooldown.
