is there a macro for something like this? i see a lot of people manually do it but i cant really wrap my head around it. any advice would help
Are you talking about the night elf active, into skull bash? Or mighty bash? Or are you talking about popping into stealth to get the stun from rake?
sorry, i meant to say rake stun. using shadowmeld then turning into cat form and stunning.
I personally just have a “vanish” macro. It’s a simple
/cast shadowmeld
/cast prowl
It works well enough as a feral Druid.
It’s not elegant but as long as I’m careful not to move before pressing the macro a second time, I can get back into stealth to hit rake.
If you’re talking about being in healer form and popping into cat just to vanish and rake, that’s a little out of my macro writing depth. There is a way to do it, I’m sure. I just don’t know off the top of my head.
i see. this is useful. thank you. this is mostly for boomkin and feral. thanks a ton
Depending if you have dots on you and depending on if you can remove them and depending on how far the enemy is you wish to stun and depending on the current DR state of the target depends on what you need to do.
I remove dots if possible then
Shift - S for Shadowmeld
Shift - D Prowl then
I Stun (some other key)
Basically If i cant remove dots I dont waste a Shadowmeld, and jump to next tactic…BUT this is not always the case.
Its VERY situational as well depending if you can LOS or not before removing dots etc
Sometimes it may be better to get into Prowl and leave, instead of stunning, as well.
And, sometimes, you can get of a shadowmeld / prowl / stun inside a dot tick but this is VERY rare and honestly running away is the better option 99% of the time instead of trying to rake stun. The only time a rake stun should be attempted if you are trying to interupt a spell with a cast time etc. But as mentioned this is very hard and should not be your problem in a team.
AND shadowmeld drops target for whoever is targeting you so burning a shadowmeld with dots on you and living is still a better option than dieing.
