@Shawn: Me too; it’s so frustrating when that box poofs!

@Sass: On the bright side, I guess they pay for that mistake with double the repairs.

@Drun: Oh, those are great. I especially like your mana pot button. That would free me from having to use Autobar (a huge memory hog) and save me some buttons, too. Thanks for sharing! I actually do the same thing with my EotM and Lifebloom macro.

@Fap: Thanks for the clarification! I’ve removed the “yardage” listed since it’s the same for both.

I would like to clarify that, even when a Tauren’s melee range is 8 yards, in cat form it’s 5 yards anyway. That has funny implications, like that when you switch forms you suddenly see the mob stepping a bit closer to you.

A few macros I use (and love)

#showtooltip Master Healthstone
#show Master Healthstone
/use Master Healthstone

It will use what ever size Healthstone I have in my bags, and only takes up one spot on my action bars

This next one is for BG’s

#showtooltip Bangle of Endless Blessings
/use Bangle of Endless Blessings
/cast [target=player] Innervate

As I have insain mana issues in BG’s (never have mana issues in PvE but PvP gear has no spirit so).

As I do use Lifebloom alot (80% to 90% of my healing on charts is LB) and I use the Essence of the Martyr the following one rocks, pops Essence of the Martyr when ever it’s cool down is up

#showtooltip Lifebloom(Rank 1)
/use Essence of the Martyr
/cast [mod:alt,target=player][]Lifebloom(Rank 1)
/run UIErrorsFrame:Clear()

As I am an herbalist, this one is my oh shit button

/use Fel Blossom
/cast Barkskin

Some times in very long fights I might need to innervate myself (but that is when the fight is very long, and we are just learning a new boss) and I don’t want to innervate my target instead of myself

#showtooltip Innervate
/cast [target=player] Innervate

Yes that requires me to have innervate also my bar incase some one else needs an innervate, but the use of that last macro does justify it for me

For mana pots

#showtooltip Super Mana Potion
/use Cenarion Mana Salve
/use Bottled Nethergon Energy
/use Crystal Mana Potion
/use Auchenai Mana Potion
/use Mana Potion Injector
/use Super Mana Potion

As they are on cooldown of 2 minutes only one can be used, and I can order how I want them used, and then this will use the first one that is usable, and only requires one mana pot icon on my action bars (yes it generates many error messages)

My guild always called that a ghetto soulstone.
And it’s AMAZING how many people don’t listen and take the res anyway.

Great macros, thanks!

And I love the little “wait for it” cartoon. I’ve been in both positions in that cartoon
