Trying to figure out how to set up a macro on my Shaman.
Trying to set it up so I can use my Ascendance, and then on the same button press, once ascendance is up, I can just hit the button and use Lava Burst, and Shift+Button to use Lava Beam.
Can’t figure it out though, Someone help me out?
Having a little trouble understanding what exactly you’re asking. You can set Shift+[key] as a keybind in the options already, why do you need a macro? Are you trying to have one button that casts ascendance then also lava burst? Lava Beam replaces chain lighting, do you want chain lightning to have a different keybind entirely while ascendance is active? Just overall very confusing.
Ahh sorry yea. So I’m trying to have a button that casts Ascendance and then Also Lava Burst.
I was going to use Shift+[key] on top of that to make the lava beam available on the same key. That way I have just the same key associated with all that burst stuff
/cast Ascendance
/run UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
/cast Lava Burst
This will do the first thing. If you want trinkets in there too add /use 13 and /use 14 after the second line, or just one or the other depending on what trinkets you have equipped.
Still confused on what you mean by the second thing. Are you trying to have essentially 2 spells “bound” to the same hotbar slot? I’m pretty sure that’s not possible. Each slot is associated with one keybind. You can’t have a slot do different things based on different inputs. And like I said before, lava beam just replaces chain lightning, so why not just push the chain lightning key during ascendance instead of trying to overcomplicate things?
Ok I was curious because I haven’t messed with macros in a long time so I did a little reading on a macro command list wiki, and it may actually be possible to make a macro that casts lava burst normally but something different if you do it while holding shift.
I’m no expert so this might be wrong, but try this:
/cast [harm,mod:shift] Chain Lightning; Lava Burst
edit: ok I figured it out, this is your complete macro
/cast Ascendance
/run UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
/cast [mod:shift] Chain Lightning; Lava Burst
this does exactly what you were asking, if you want it to be the alt or ctrl keys instead of shift, you can change that part of the macro, so [mod:alt] or [mod:ctrl]
