Question on how /stopmacro works for this particular macro

Guides UI and Macro

Hi all,

I just got this macro and I’m aware of what the macro does, except about the /stopmacro part. I’m also in doubt if it is also a necessity or redundant. I’ve read the stickies but did not find out the exact info on what I’m looking for:

“#showtooltip
/cast [harm] crusader strike
/stopmacro [harm]
/targetenemy
/cast crusader strike
/targetlasttarget”

Thanks in advance.

What are you trying to do:

  1. Switch to an enemy if you have an ally targeted?
#showtooltip
/targetenemy [noharm]
/cast Crusader Strike
/targetlasttarget [noharm]
  1. Target an enemy if you don’t have a target?
#showtooltip
/startattack
/cast Crusader Strike

I play as healer and was looking for a macro that could cast Crusader Strike to the closest enemy OR cast on the target of my ally, so that I could use that spell with my ally still selected. Is it possible to have those conditions on the same macro?

Also curious on what exactly a /stopmacro does.

Because Crusader Strike requires a melee swing, you probably need to switch targets. Personally, I’d keep enemies targeted at all times and use mouseovers or click casting to heal people.

As for stopmacro, it prevents further execution of the macro, if the conditions set on it are met at the time the macro was pressed.
