Blindside Macro Help

Hello rogues, with the changes to Blindside I was wondering if possible (I’m terrible at macro’s) if there is a way were I could have Mutilate and Ambush in the same button.

Basically what I am trying to do is have the macro use ambush if conditions are met but if I don’t have a blindside proc to use Mutilate. Just to help save space.

Unfortunately macros can’t be conditional based on things like active auras/buffs, like Blindside. That gets into the realm of letting macros play the game for you. I think the best you can do is set up a macro with Mutilate as the main ability used, and then a button-press conditional (alt, shift, or ctrl) that you can use for when Blindside procs.

E.g.:

#showtooltip
/cast [mod:alt] Ambush; Mutilate

Ya was having a feeling I would be doing something like that. Knowing myself I will forget the proc is up XD

Thankfully there’s a visual alert (assuming you have that option turned on). Two big orange streaks appear in the middle of the screen. Hard to miss. :slight_smile:

Try this…

#showtooltip
/startattack
/castsequence reset=1 Mutilate, Ambush

Mutilate is on cooldown, anyway, but if Ambush is available it will show up. It takes some getting used to, but it works.

Never commented on the forums but I literally log in just to agree with you and upvote your comment. It’s never too late to help out with free advice. Someone could come in to check like me.

@Adrennalynn’s cast sequence was what I was thinking of at first but I think it’s best to 2 button press for Blindside procs

I also agree: It’s never too late; this helped me with the issues I was having with it. so thank you for putting an answer in.

dis is builtinto the game now eh?
