Macros

i thought i would post here the macros that im using at the moment and ones that can be used for various build/specs.

macros are very usefull, with the amount of shots a hunter has at their diposal, ive found that macros help me keep ontop of my rotations

there are 2 main macros i use here. for bm i use the pet one with BW, but BW can be taken out for MM and SV builds.
1. Pet ability macro
/cast bestial wrath
/cast call of the wild
/cast rabid
or if you have a pet specific ability you want to control off auto cast like /cast serenity dust for moths

2. main shot roation
#showtooltip
/console sound_enablesfx0
/castrandom kill shot, tranquilizing shot
/cast steady shot
/cast kill command
/console sound_enablesfx1

after long hours or target dummy shooting, arc shot in this macro did fire but not as effecient or as quickly as it could be so i took arc shot out and put tranq in for when this is needed you dont have to worry about finding it on your bar; in naxx for e.g the bone shields on the military ward or in os on the enraged fir eles.

This is an all purpose macro easily changed for sv. swap tranq for Explosive or for mm; Chimera.

The other macro i use is your other shots available to spec into. this can be changed towhatever shot you have available to your build.
3.
/cast sequence reset=6 Arcane shot, Aimed shot
if you dont have aimed shot

/cast sequence reset=6 Arcane shot, Multi-Shot

again very versatile if you want more control over your explosive shots than you have in the main macro and you dont have aimed you can change the macro to suit.

/cast sequence reset=6 Explosive Shot, Multi-Shot

and either leave in tranq shot in the main macro or use Aimed if you have it

#showtooltip
/console sound_enablesfx0
/castrandom kill shot, Aimed Shot
/cast steady shot
/cast kill command
/console sound_enablesfx1


ive messed around with these macro for a number of years, when you had to incorporate your attack speed into them. now we dont have that to worry about that, ive refitted the macros with kill shot as priority when i realised that i wasnt getting kill shots in before mob died. which i must admit isnt easy on trash. these macros eliminated my problem with kill shot and kill command.
I know button mashing sounds inane and some ppl hate the ideas of macros, but ive found them endlessly usefull in keeping control of pets and shots.

i hope these give you some ideas. feel free to use the macros posted and if you make any new ones that are better, please email me with them so i can try them out and i will post on here along with kudos.

As steady shot becomes less and less important, we may see a reduction in macros using it. we will have to see. Also with Black Arrow comming this could also be incorporated but with it being on the trap 30 sec CD im not sure how we can. we will have to wait and see and do extensive testing when and if this is all finalised for 3.1.
