Cat + Prowl Out of Combat and off CD Macro

Guides UI and Macro

Hey, I don’t know if retail or classic TBC+ work the same, let alone Classic Era and Hardcore, so I’m asking specifically for Hardcore (if it mattered). So basically I need a giga chad macro geek to spill this one out for me. This is like Tier 1 S+ legendary macro. How can I macro to shift to cat form and instantly Prowl, while only out of combat AND my Prowl is off cooldown? I don’t want to shapeshift if Prowl is off cooldown so i don’t waste mana. I ALSO don’t want to shapeshift to cat form even if Prowl is off cooldown when I’m still in combat, again, to not waste mana.

So far the best I can think of it right now is:

#showtooltip Prowl
/cast [stance:0/1/2/4, nocombat] Cat Form
/cast [nostealth] !Prowl

note: this works, but it does not solve whether Prowl is off cooldown problem. Thoughts?

a macro cannot make this determination for you.

#showtooltip Prowl
/cast [@player] Rejuvenation
/use [combat] Shadowmeld
/use [ form : 3 ] [ no combat ] !Prowl

not sure if it’s what you asked for but this macro cast rejuv on you, shadowmeld, then prowl while in combat. it will not shift you out of prowl when out of combat. you could tweak it as you like and remove rejuv and shadowmeld.

They asked specifically for hardcore, which lacks in combat shadowmeld and prowl automatically shifting to cat form. This macro would simply not function properly in classic era as it lacks any way to enter cat form and still doesn’t change anything about the underlying issue that macros have no way to determine if prowl is off cooldown.
