Psynister asked about cooldowns on Soulstones on twitter.
Once upon a time I used Necrosis. Then it became a huge resource suck and I had to find another way to manage all the fiddly warlock things. I finally settled on using a lot of macros. I use ALOT of macros.. and they’re [...]
There’s a new tool in town. MacroExplain will puzzle apart macros and try to tell you in english what the macro is doing.
Here’s my favorite macro http://www.macroexplain.com/m7
/target [help] targettarget
/petattack [target=pettarget,noexists] target
/cast [nochanneling] life tap(rank 1)
/stopmacro [target=pettarget,noexists]
/petfollow
Woot! So it turns out I can add life tap to my pet attack macro.
Pet Attack:
/target [help] targettarget
/petattack [target=pettarget,noexists] target
/cast [nochanneling] life tap(rank 1)
/stopmacro [target=pettarget,noexists]
/petfollow
If my target is friendly to me (ie, the tank) use my target’s target and ..
If I’m not currently channeling another spell, Life tap (rank 1) (because I have [...]
/run CallCompanion(“CRITTER”, random(GetNumCompanions(“CRITTER”) ) )
I didn’t write it. Sometimes good information actually -does- come from the official forums.
See the official forum post for more information about “random mounts” (ie, the answer is long.. they said it well.. and i’m not going to repeat it.. except to say that the addon “livestock” looks like a [...]
Fiancee is helping another player with his hunter. I promised to repost his pulling macro.
Here’s the macro I use for pulling something. Set this up in your macros with the “?” icon.
#showtooltip Distracting Shot
/clearfocus [target=focus,dead]
/clearfocus [target=focus,noexists]
/focus [target=focus,noexists]
/cast [target=focus] Distracting Shot
/stopcasting
What it does:
Show the distracting shot icon.
If my focus is dead,
or if my focus [...]
[Deprecated: with the 3.0.x patch, you can only carry one healthstone. So the macro is still useful.. just not as useful as it used to be.]
The following macro will allow you to have a single button for multiple healthstones. If you have all three sizes, then clicking this once will use the biggest [...]
So I’ve got this macro problem.. you might call it an addiction.. but that’s only if you look at it from the outside where it looks all obsessive and weird. From the insider (my view) it looks perfectly normal.
Anyway.. Lilac has run out of macro slots. I know, hard to imagine.. but every [...]
Yesterday it occured to me that suddently Tatia is using a lot of macros. I’ve added a page just for the macros. Enjoy.
So.. well.. I’m a programmer at heart. If it’s good as it is, it’d be even better if I could get a computer to do it.
Last week Lilac ran Mana Tombs and I got my first taste of warlock CC. I dutifully made up a focus macro to get seduction to work.

I tweaked my Hunter’s attack macro based on the buggy piggies. This macro lets me take “Charge” off auto-cast but still uses it at the beginning of the fight. It should also prevent my piggie from breaking my (and other people’s) traps. New macro:
/target [help] targettarget
/cast Hunter’s Mark
/petattack [target=pettarget,noexists] target
/cast [pet:Boar] [...]
