"Macro script has been blocked"

I’m sure we are all testing our macros to see what does and doesn’t work.

As a warrior, there are a number of stance/combat dependent macros that
I utilize. Being that I was only invited to the stress test, I was only able to test
my charge/intercept macro which:

1st click - Switches to Battle Stance out of combat (if not in Battle Stance already)
2nd click(unless already in Battle) - Charges

or

1st click - Switches to Berserker Stance if in combat (if not in Berserker already)
2nd click(unless already in Berserker) - Intercepts

Will macros such as this no longer be allowed? Or does the macro simply need to be rewritten in order to be used?

Post the macro?

/run g=GetShapeshiftFormInfo c=CastSpellByName t,n,bas=g(1) t,n,ber=g(3) if UnitAffectingCombat(“player”) then if ber then c(“Intercept”)else c(“Berserker Stance”)end else if bas then c(“Charge”)else c(“Battle Stance”)end end

Yeah, no, you can’t use any Private Server macros.

/run and /script are invalid slash commands now.

So that means it may be possible for this macro to be rewritten using proper /cmds?

/cast [nocombat,nostance:1] Battle Stance; [nocombat,stance:1] Charge; [combat,nostance:3] Berserker Stance; [combat,stance:3] Intercept

I think this is what you want.

Hm, I will let you know in a few months if it works since I can’t fully test it until then.

However, currently, it does nothing. Technically, should still allow me to charge out of combat but does not. :frowning:

As written Eloraell’s macro will charge if out of combat and already in Battle Stance.

It should work, but might not be exactly what you described. If you have an active sub, you can test it in BFA; Classic uses the same macro API as BFA (though it may have minor adjustments that we don’t know about yet, it is unlikely that any of those will affect this macro).

If you only have battle stance, it may not work while you haven’t got other stances.

11

Agree good use of time prep wise too

I know the druid tanking macro for bear->cancel form->Consume->Bear is working so fast you dont see the switch outta bear form. Means we will be able to use all the consume while tanking like stoneshield for 2k extra armor, and the resistance potions, and health stuff. It’s gonna open up the tanking on use trinkets to use too.

13

you have to use the NEW macro stuff even #tooltip now workds when it wasnt’ a thing before.

14

I was able to use a /run to toggle display cloak on the Stress Test, it just had a warning about custom scripts beforehand.

Definitely worked, so I dunno what info you’re working with. Have they mentioned removing it?

15

Sorry, invalid in that they aren’t part of secure frames so you get all sorts of rejections and errors during combat.

You mean I cant use my swifty one shot macro?

Rip. Gonna actually need binds now.
