Arcane Shot to Chimaera shot

Guides UI and Macro
1

Hey there,

So currently I have two different macros based on the spell I’m using, but the only difference is the /cast line:

#showtooltip Arcane Shot
/cancelaura Aspect of the Turtle
/cast Dreadfire Vessel
/petattack
/cast [nochanneling:rapid fire] Arcane Shot
/use [@pettarget]Claw
/use [@pettarget]Bite
/use [@pettarget]Smack

Again, to reiterate, the only change in the two macros is that instead of “/cast [nochanneling:rapid fire] Arcane Shot” it is “[nochanneling:rapid fire] Chimaera Shot” and the #showtooltip

I’m finding it really tedious to keep changing the macro in my keybind slot. I’m wondering if there’s a way I can consolidate the two. Basically make it something where its arcane by default but will take into account whether or not I’ve talented into chimaera.

Let me know if this requires further explanation, thank you.

There’s no need to change the macro at all Chime Shot replaces Arcane Shot automatically so you don’t need to code it manually.

Optimized the macro a bit though.

#showtooltip
/cancelaura Aspect of the Turtle
/stopmacro [channeling:Rapid Fire]
/petattack
/cast Arcane Shot
/cast Dreadfire Vessel
/use [@pettarget]Claw
/use [@pettarget]Bite
/use [@pettarget]Smack

For talents where the talented version doesn’t automatically replace the base version you do this:

Ah, okay. So I’ve been doing all this bar management for no reason. Great lol.

Also, yea I realize now after looking at your ordering that dreadfire could potentially interrupt Rapid Fire if it was off cd, so thanks for that as well. Appreciated!

Not for no reason. Just for a reason you didn’t plan on.

I bet any amount that the lesson learned here STICKS.

Error is the father of learning.

You don’t learn a darned thing by doing something right.
