Shimmer Stop Macro

Guides UI and Macro
21
People are making this issue way more complicated than it needs to be.
#showtooltip
/castsequence [talent:2/1] reset=1 Shimmer,null
/use [notalent:2/1]Blink
Bind this macro to wheel up and wheel down.

Want to use it once, as fast as possible? Roll it down. Want to use it twice, for maximum distance? Roll it up and down.

Hey Adreaver,

Do you develop addons? I need something very simple developed. I want an addon where at certain health %'s and actions based on spec - a random /s phrase happens like
"woot"
or "yay"
or "ouch" when iceblock.
23
Also this macro no longer works. I have it bound to mouse wheel down and it always uses twice no matter what.

this worked. have fun :) https://us.battle.net/forums/en/wow/topic/20769048120

Solution here if anyone is still interested:

#showtooltip blink
/run CastSpellByName(Shimmer);
/cancelqueuedspell
/cast blink

This macro will prevent you from double casting Shimmer even when itā€™s binded to mouse wheel up. And it will blink if you arenā€™t using Shimmer talent.
I like to use Blinkā€™s icon, if you donā€™t want it, just remove the #showtooltip line

=D

Way to necro the hell out of this thread. Also, CastSpellByName() doesnā€™t work in combat.

27

Thatā€™s not true. Iā€™m using it in every pvp situation, combat included (obviously).
You can check it yourself.

I know this is a super old post, but if anyone stumbles upon this post from google, like I did, and you have this problem. Use:

#showtooltip
/use Blink
/cqs

Its the simplest way. Prevents double shimmer spam. Allows you to cast again immediately. And defaults back to blink if you donā€™t have shimmer talented.
