Mind you this only works with specific pets. (In my case a crab, which is very popular anyway) /use Medallion of the Alliance (or 13/14, any applicable trinket) /cast Deterrence /cast Pin /use Runic Healing Potion This is terrific when facing a rogue. If you can't target the rogue quickly enough, this is basically a get out of jail free card. As soon as they open on you, you will trinket their stun, use a pot to get your lost health back, your crab (in this case) will root the rogue, and you will be immune to damage. The only thing you need to be aware of is your back facing the rogue. A simple mouse turn of 180 degrees the instant you use it will get you facing the rogue so deterrence is effective. Then you have a few seconds to either disengage, lay a couple traps, etc, whatever you need to do to prepare for the fight. If the rogue vanishes, at least you know he has burned his vanish, (and CoS also if you mark him or sting him) and now you have a chance to drop a flare and are aware of his presence.

Check it out: http://www.youtube.com/user/Kripparrian#p/u/15/qqkZRK-jjQw His tips gave me a great boost in DPS by eliminating lulls in my dps cycle by binding offensive skills to secondary or tertiatry abilities.

I've been playing for a little over 2 years, but I've just been starting to use macros lately. They're intimidating. :( One (probably stupid) question, though... I've been using this macro to start fights: <i>/cast hunter's mark /use charge /petattack</i> I tried to add in a </i>/cast Aspect of the Hawk</i> to make sure it's on whenever I go into combat, but if I already have Aspect of the Hawk applied and I use that command, it turns off. Is there any way to fix t Wow, fantastic list here. I’ve been playing for a little over 2 years, but I’ve just been starting to use macros lately. They’re intimidating. :(

Basically, I want to have a single button that casts Hunter's Mark with a left click vs Hunter's Mark and /petattack with a right click (I'd much prefer l/r click to a different mod key... I am a clicker, unfortunately). Thanks for any help you can offer - I've absconded with several of your macros already, with great appreciation. :) - Vex Forgive the possibly elementary question, but I have tried several variations of what I want to macro without success.

I had been looking for a website like this ever since I returned to WoW. You are an asset to hunters everywhere and I appreciate all your efforts. These macros have enhanced my gaming experience immensely and showed me how easily some of the problems I have had, like autoshooting fresh frozen warriors in BGs, can be overcome with a few simple line of text.
