[Macro] Feral Druid Arena!

[bukoman]

Hey all. New to the protected LUA stuff, but this is something I've been curious about for a long time. I'm very interested in learning how to use this programming language, and have a good "concept" for an arena pvp feral druid macro... but it may be too complex to be possible.

Savage Roar, Rip as the top priorities. Should not try to clip Rip.
Keep mangle and raked refreshed if the previous priority is kept up.
Keep faerie fire up.
if target is below 10-15% health, use full points on ferocious bite.
if a focus target is set and the focus is casting any number of heals / cc's and skull bash is up, cast it
if predator swiftness is up (I think its the name, the one that allows instant cast of cyclone) and a focus target is set - cast it on the focus.
if you go below 15% health - cast barkskin, enrage, survival instincts, frenzied regeneration, nature's grasp. - I think it'd be too much to ask the macro to also handle an optimal bear form rotation - so this should be handled by the user unless I'm wrong - which I would love to discuss how to optimize this.

I wouldn't put berserk in, but I would have the macro know that during berserk that all skills cost half energy.

Too much for a macro. Try honorbuddy or that rotation bot

I'm unsure if you wanted help with realizing this macro or if you were asking for us to code it for you, but in both of these cases here are tips you could be interested in.
Keep in mind that Lua is a scripting language, meaning that most of the features you will use within it were implemented by Blizzard. Of course, the syntax is the same for every lua implementations, meaning you can follow any simple Lua tutorial to get you started with it.
To get the required information for creating Lua code for WoW, I really like to read the WoW API section of WoWWiki, they have a lot of examples and tips. This page also contains a lot of information to get you started.
The best way to achieve what you want would be to look at existing macros/examples/addons which all work in the same way.

You could just go download Ovale Spell Priority - Buffs & Debuffs - World of Warcraft Addons - Curse It does pretty much what your asking for :P
