@Mouseover taking precedence over modifier

[Cherries-whitemane]

Hello, I am having an issue with some macro’s and I am not sure what I am missing or need to change. It seems that @mouseover conditionals are taking precedence over modifiers. I have the following:

#showtooltip /cast [nomod][@mouseover,harm] Hand of Reckoning;[mod:shift][@mouseover,help] Righteous Defense;[mod:ctrl] Arcane Torrent

The idea is hitting the macro will always cast Hand of Reckoning, using shift will always cast Righteous Defense (@mouseover, @target if friendly, or select player if neither), and using Control will always cast Arcane Torrent.

The problem is that when I am mousing over a friendly target, even with alt held, it wants to cast Righteous Defense. What is this lacking and if I am way off please shed light or provide resources for me to read up on.

#showtooltip
/cast [mod:ctrl] Arcane Torrent; [mod:shift,@mouseover,help,nodead] [mod:shift] Righteous Defense; [@mouseover,harm,nodead] [] Hand of Reckoning

Below are my personal macros. The purpose of them is to condense the number of physical keys you need to press by controlling which spell is cast via modifier (alt/shift/ctrl) and adding enhanced targeting capabilities where applicable.

Wow, all this time not knowing that… Thank you so much. Spent a solid 30 minutes searching for resources and reading up on modifiers before posting and never came across this. Syntax seems to get skipped quite a bit at least on the top search engine hits. I appreciate you!
