Making your Macro

Now that you know the commands, you can make your macro. It's pretty easy if you want to just cast a spell or weaponswap.

Complex Macros

Now comes the interesting part, making more complex Macros. You can link commands by using the ";" key.

Combat Combo Example: target 0;attack [t];skill Bash;skill Kick
Weapon Swap + Attack Example: say /weaponswap left Diabolic War Hammer;skill Strike of Justice;attack attack
Weapon Swap + Spell Cast Example: say /weaponswap left Diabolic War Hammer;stopattack stopattack;spell Holy Cry
Pro Tip: If you are ever in combat and you target yourself, it will automatically stop combat so you can cast a spell.

More Notes

Case sensitivity and spelling is most likely what causes incorrect hotkeys, most of the time.

You can name two hotkeys the same, and set them in the same position, and they will do the same thing, even if only one of them has data in the "Macro Action:" text box.

For using items, the slots are named: item head, item neck, item body, item rwrist, item lwrist, item lhand, item rhand, item gloves, item legs, and item boots.

You cannot have multiple "say" commands in one hotkey.

You can have multiple 'spell' commands in one hotkey, but it will display "You are already casting a spell!"

You can have multiple skills in a hotkey.

You can't hotkey 2 consumeable items in one hotkey, but you CAN hotkey using two equipped items. For example: item body;item ring will work where item Magical Acorn;item A Magical Fruit will display "You can not use another item for 10 seconds." after eating the acorn.

Just for Fun

You can also use the [t] function in macros such as:

say /e pokes the eye of [t] and laughs

When an ogre basher is targeted, it will appear as:

Jaina pokes the eye of An Ogre Basher and laughs

This is fun when you add this into your attack hotkeys! Talk about imitating the mobs at doing stupid things before attacking =)

Note that this only works with macros; [t] does nothing if said without the use of a macro hotkey
