If you play a bit of Boomkin and have multiple buttons for !Travel Form; !Cat Form; and !Moonkin Form. This is a great little macro that works well with Feral and Restoration Affinity. This allows the user to shift between !Moonkin Form + !Cat Form[indoors] and !Moonkin Form + Travel Form[Outdoors] within a single macro.
Also, in the case of being in water that’s technically located inside (it does exist more than you’d think) water form doesn’t activate. If you’re not using a spec or affinity that uses the Moonkin form, it simply toggles from caster to travel/cat (depending on location).
Which as stated earlier, my ability macros have the [noform] line depending on the spec for on the spot form switching when needed. As for the (shapeshifting) sections within the macro, this was for stability from early BFA which may no longer be needed.
Go to an under water area that is classed indoors (one that travel form does not activate), and you will find that water travel form does not activate as the [indoors] modifier has made it that you’ll switch back and forth from cat to caster/moonkin forms.
For clarification:
If you’re unable to shift into stag/flight form, you’re most likely classed as being indoors. One very easy area to test this is inside the Nar’thalas Academy in Azsuna, or the pooled area both inside and out of Serpent Shrine Cavern where the water is classed as being indoors, and will not activate your underwater travel form. So when you tell me that you’ve “tested inside and it still works”, shows you’ve either mistaken an area as being zoned as indoors, just not bothered to actually test correctly, or just full of it…
There are other macros that work, and that do incorporate Moonkin. But what you’ve posted is horribly inefficient, and would have misled lesser educated players.
I was looking all over and none of the macros worked the way I wanted until I found your original macro and modified it to suit boomy and now I have the macro I need, thank you so much for this information!
Fantastic to hear it helped
I had a similar issue between Legion and BFA where something broke in my shift macro, and the (Shapeshift) sorted it out. Granted, it doesn’t have the room for incorporating Moonkin or extra mounts such as the water strider, but focused on reliable shifting in all scenarios.
