What are your favorite macros? - UI, Addons and Macros - Hunter Forums

This one has become my new absolute favorite:

#showtooltip Misdirection
/cast [target=focus,help,nodead] Misdirection

I used to always have a focus target, but I didn't start using this macro until a couple of months ago.  so I was previously always clicking on my focus and then hitting MD.  Having this macro is so smooth I don't know how I was managing it before.

I also like the wing clip disengage macro that Takaas posted.  I'm wondering if there's a way to slightly add to it though?  Like having it drop some traps before doing the wing clip and disengage.  But traps are probably on the global cooldown, so just a thought….

here's another that I use, when I was BM it used to include big red in it, but not anymore…

#showtooltip Rapid Fire
/cast Rapid Fire
/cast Call of the Wild
/use 14

all the others I use are pretty standard.  I have a similar one to the hunter's mark macro that Niika posted.  I have kill command macro'd to a action bar button and then I have basically every shot macro'd to activate that button.  I think that was the old macro that you used to have to use, it works just fine still and I have no need to change it though.  And lastly, when I play MM I have one that has silencing shot macro'd into my Chimera and I believe also into my Aimed, but only those 2 shots…

Yea, having cotw macro'd makes it pretty easy.  I usually pop that macro right at the begining of the fight unless there's something special about the fight.  and of course, the /use 14 only works if you have a useable trinket, but no reason to take it out if you don't.  that way it's always there if you do switch to a useable trinket

for the silencing shot macro, when I switched from SV to MM I read that having silencing shot in the rotation was a DPS increase and that it was best to macro it to a shot or more.  The argument that I read though was that if you macro'd it to everything then you stood a much higher chance of not having it available for it's intended use if needed.  For example, silencing a ranged mob will make it charge you and sometimes makes it much easier on the tank to pick it up.  Best example of a location for that is for certain tanks in the forge of souls.

Now recently I read something posted by Gar, I think, about how having it in every shot could cause it to be a pretty big mana drain.  It seems to work out just fine for me macro'd to chimera.  I really can't say whether I macro'd it to aimed or not, but for some reason I want to say I definitely did.

other than the ones I posted though, I can't think of too many more that I use.  I play about half key bound and half click and that makes a lot of my guildies think I have an "I win" macro, but I don't…lol.
