Predatory Strikes & Leader of the Pack lost on powershifting

Hey I use a different style of cat and bear form macro. I like to be able to spam my keybind and go to that form and stay in it. I was utilizing the /cancelform [noform:x] before but I noticed the leader of the pack disappearing when I flickered between bear and cat. I’ve modified my macro now thanks to you.

Before my macro looked like this. The exclamation mark would allow me to spam Dire Bear Form and once in Dire Bear Form it would stop. The /cancelform [noform:1] cancels any other form besides Dire Bear Form so I can flicker from cat or travel form directly into Bear with only a puff of smoke. If I am already in Bear nothing happens. This was my old macro:

/dismount
/cancelform [noform:1]
/cast !Dire Bear Form

I had the same issue as you. Leader of the Pack would disappear when flickering from Cat to Bear so I modified my macro to look like this.

#showtooltip Dire Bear Form
/dismount
/cancelaura [noform:1]Leader of the Pack;
/cancelaura [noform:1]Predatory Strikes(Rank 3);
/cast [form:2]Aquatic Form;[form:3] Cat Form;[form:4]Travel Form;
/cast !Dire Bear Form

Initially I didn’t have the [noform:1] and I realized spamming the macro cancelled my auras. Now the macro switches and stays in bear form and I never lose my auras.

For reference this is my Cat Form Macro:

#showtooltip Cat Form
/dismount
/cancelaura [noform:3]Leader of the Pack;
/cancelaura [noform:3]Predatory Strikes(Rank 3);
/cast [form:1] Dire Bear Form;[form:2]Aquatic Form;[form:4]Travel Form;
/cast !Cat Form

With my macros I have no means of getting back to caster form without rightclicking the Cat Form symbol in the Buff Frame. I therefore utilize a Caster form Macro which simply cancels all forms:

/dismount
/cancelform

My final macro is travel form which I do like to flicker so its different in comparison to Cat and Bear Form:

#showtooltip Travel Form
/dismount
/cancelform
/cast Travel Form

Thanks for creating this post. I hope they fix the issue but for now macros will have to do.

Most of my macro knowledge came from this post:
