MOP Classic
As I am a Windwalker and I am using two swords, the spell ‘Jab’ in my spellbook quite rightly says “You slice the target with your sword.”
However, when I add Jab into a macro using the following (for example):
#showtooltip
/cast Jab
And I then put the above macro onto my toolbar, the text of the macro changes to “You clobber the target with your staff.”
I had a longer macro (including a /startattack function and trinkets procs) but wanted to pare it down to rule out other errors.
When I am close to an enemy and I use this macro, it initiates combat, but does not fire off Jab, as I am using swords and the macro is expecting a staff. Instead, the macro is desaturated, indicating something that will not work.
