One of two possibilities here:

1. You're a helluva troll
2. You didn't understand the beautiful hilarity of my post

Either way...you have my pity kind sir.

I wasn't trolling when I requested a PvP macro. (That's pretty embarrassing now I guess.)

I'm just curious now though, would it be possible to create a working PvP macro or was the sarcasm because off how it would make PvP boring and non competitive?

I haven't looked deep into macro making (obviously), but because it can spell interrupt maybe it could be possible?

Ok we have progress, it passes the bleed check, it casts garrotte if its in stealth, if not in stealth and no bleed on target it will use rupture, then put up HfB, then put up slice n dice. but then it throws the following error and no longer works until you /reloadui

PvP isn't a scripted event.

[Shamrockstar]

Do this...

/target Healer
/cast Charge
/cast Mortal Strike
/cast Rend
/cast Sweeping Strikes
/cast Bladestorm 
/yell LOLZ SKILLSTORM!

Wait a few whirlwinds in...the following will be true:

1. You've procced Taste for Blood
2. You've procced Sudden Death
3. They're casting a heal

Then do this...

/cancelaura Bladestorm
/cast Overpower
/yell 75% MS LOLZ
/yell FREE EXECUTE LOLZ
/cast Execute

Then you discover their health is low enough now...so...

/cast Execute
/yell KILLING BLOW BITCH!

Then do...

/use Shield
/use 1H Weapon
/cast Defensive Stance
/cast Shield Wall
/yell INVINCIBLE LOLZ!
/cast [@ArenaPartner] Intervene
/yell TIME TO RUN AWAY LOLZ!

When your heatlh is full, run over to the remaining enemy and smash your face into the keyboard until the screen pops up telling you how much rating you won.

Firstly, this made my week and that's saying something because it was a pretty spectacular week.

Secondly, Viral you have singlehandedly changed WoW for a number of players in this thread and I hope you realize this. I just want to pop in and say thank you again for all your work in these regards.

In closing, you had a Q posted and in the "considered but not prioritized" was a blood tanking/frost tanking lua. I for one would be very grateful to see this, specifically the blood one as I believe it would have the most functionality. Heath threshold use of abilities would be awesome.

Thanks again and keep on rockin...

I'm going to start my own thread soon to keep them all together, up to date, and organized. It will make it easier to find them all, ask questions, see my queue, etc.

As for DK tank, I'll get there eventually. ^_^

Yea I was cleaning it up as far as global vs local variables and broke it. I just fixed the post...can you try that one? It was working perfectly for someone else earlier before I broke it. =)

[reveng_]

DK Tanking and DPS'ing is virtually the same. The only difference is you do your rotation in frost presence and macro RS to go off everytime it's up.

@Viral: Please do make your own thread, it's hard to scroll back pages to find stuff :X

Yes, it would be possible...but only to an extent. But a macro that would truly PVP properly would be MONSTROUS. Like he said, PVP isn't a scripted event. There are so many possibilities.

Take just one example...you're a warrior...you're happily spamming your pvp macro while you beat this priest to death. But his partner is a mage and starts to Polymorph you. A real PVP warrior would probably have the mage on focus or see the cast on Gladius and swap to shield and spell reflect...a reflected sheep is pro. But the macro user would just get sheeped.

Another warrior example...you're out in the open beating on someone...and your healer gets CCed...he's told you on vent he has no trinket or other escape. You have to defend yourself. A real PVP warrior would swap to shield and go defensive stance knowing that the burst is about to come while healer is CCed. He may even spell reflect, shield wall, or intervene back to his healer.

A macro can't make those kinds of decisions without about a TON of code. A macro can't line of sight a cast for you...a macro can't keep you in LoS of your healer. A macro can't pop a perfect intimidating shout.

Could the macro constantly scan the opposing players, figure out what they're doing, and try to do some things? Sure, it probably could...but it still would be terrible...there's just too many conditions...too many possibilities...too many decisions. A lot of PVP is about coordination with teammates and making the best decision for each action based on way too much information.

So yea...some macros to assist with small parts of PVP...maybe...macros for PVP that are on the same level as my PVE ones....very unlikely...

Thankyou for taking the time to make it clear to me and an even bigger thankyou for the guide. You're the most useful and helpful person I've met on MMOwned and you've made heroic farming 1000 times more easier!

Which works great in hc's low level raids, even ICC10. However tried a TOTGC10 to really test it and when we got anub to P3 and the shit's hitting the fan people are on low health mana is dropping. It does nothing, I have sufficient mana to do something, yet the script doesn't. almost as if it doesn't know what to do. Any Ideas?

[Jibberish]

A few notes:

1. Your description lies...it will cast Black Arrow on cooldown regardless of debuff.
2. Your check for Explosive Shot debuff can fail if another Survival Hunter is in the party/raid...check out my macros for examples.
3. You should check both UnitCastingInfo AND UnitChannelInfo for interrupts...again see examples.
4. Interrupt at the beginning of macro since it's a high priority.
5. Just for less typing and readability, you can just do GetSpellCooldown("MY_SPELL")==0 instead of putting it into a variable.

Outta curiosity...why Explosive only when LnL? Explosive is your mainstay as Survival. =)

True, I did lie. My Black Arrow casts on the cooldown, thanks for letting me know. I primarily made this macro for my solo grinding efforts, so I am not too concerned about other Hunters' debuffs... but you raise a valid point. This is also why I only use Explosive when I have LnL (for better mana efficiency). This is clearly not max DPS possible, but it seems to be the best for me being able to keep my mana going. This may change in the future, depending on how well I am able to get my aspects working. Also, a good point about the interrupt... Thanks for this and I hope you don't mind if I use your examples for base code.

And thanks for the clarification on the GetSpellCooldown... I wasn't sure if I didn't use a variable if my macro would be able to continue past the spell I wanted to cast if its cooldown wasn't zero.

Also thanks on the clarification on the movement commands, I read the note about the 1.6 patch, but it didn't really make much sense to me at the time (noob).

As for your first example, spell reflecting a poly would be possible. Using the gettime function on castingtime, if less than 0.5 seconds of casting time on polymorph, change to def stance and spell reflect, wait 1 second, if not spell reflect buff, change to battle stance again and pew. But you're 80% right, PvP can't be macroed, sure you can do macros for your spell priority, but CD's and stuff like that would still have to be manually done.

Edit: 2200 rating using facesmasher on my DK

Even then...you'd have to constantly scan all enemies checking if they are casting a CC spell (a huge list), and check if they are casting in you....it'd be a massive undertaking for even that simple thing. You can play it off like it's not, but it is.

Edit: 2200 rating using facesmasher on my DK

Faceroll is faceroll. You probably play either melee cleave or Shadowcleave where the warlock does the work. =) Or it's 2s...which is LOL...who cares 2200 in 2s. =)

Viral Fly-by if you have any suggestions on the resto druid, ill keep working on it. it mostly works already other than rebuffing rejuvenation
