New bug I discovered with paladin class mounts

Adding this here cause it gets more attention and someone may have a solution to it:

I tried to update my mount macro for my paladin recently to a new mount to use, it has the corridor creeper in it so I don’t have to bind both. Any who I wanted to bind the great sunwalker kodo to it, and it doesn’t work. I’ve spell checked it, put in different mounts into the macro, and nothing seems to work with it. So it seems to be specific to both of the paladin specific mounts, as the sunwalker kodo also doesn’t work.

I imagine this will be never properly fixed, as its a multi dollar company, yet kind of find it amusing in a way such a simple and stupid bug exists honestly.

what’s the macro which isn’t working?

its simple mount macro like this:

/use obsidian worldbreaker
/use corridor creeper

the macro will always read the first one and cast the first one first, if you hit it in succession again it will mount you on the creeper. Along with it cancels the first cast in the maw automatically and casts the creeper instead, won’t be using it for much longer given 9.1 and all its stupidity that its bringing along with it.

The chargers cast as spells

They can still be interrupted by kicks in pvp

They’re not the same cast as regular mounts

5

were you expecting this to work with the paladin mounts?

…because they’re spells, not mounts.

i think you mostly want /cast mount_1; mount_2; ... ; mount_x, maybe with some kind of check to see if you’re in the maw

edit: /run if GetRealZoneText() == "The Maw" then C_MountJournal.SummonByID(1442) end /cast mount_1; mount_2; ... ; mount_x

As stated above, they are spells, so /use won’t work.

Also, you can rework it to a one click macro that checks:

1:If you in a no fly zone, then mounts listed ground mount.

2: if you can fly, then use listed flying mount.

3: if in the maw, uses creeper of choice.

Paladin mounts have to have the word “summon” at the front to work in a macro. “Summon” is part of the name of the mount.

/cast Summon Great Sunwalker Kodo
