Useful macros for those about to start HC Classic/ptr

Anyone have any handy macros for classic? Here’s the few I’ve found helpful:


/run local n,m if GetCVar(“componentTexLoadLimit”)==“0” then n=6 m=2 else n=0 m=1 end SetCVar(“componentTexLoadLimit”,n)SetCVar(“graphicsTextureResolution”,m)

When you assign this macro to a key, pushing it causes all players to vanish - even yourself! This is handy for seeing past the clutter and finding quest npcs or flight masters, especially in early launch when you’re competing with the zerg. Pushing this macro a second time re-enables player sprites.


/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/castsequence Find Herbs, Find Minerals
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

This allows players with both Herbalism and Mining to assign a key or mouse button to toggling between seeing herbs and mining nodes on the minimap. The “sound” parts of the macro are to disable the annoying click sound made when switching between mining/herb (20+ times a minute it DOES get annoying otherwise)


/target Azshir the Sleepless
/target Fallen Champion
/target Ironspine

I like to spam this macro when walking through SM Graveyard to see if any rare spawn bosses are hiding in easily missed places. With the upcoming 24 hour dungeon lockouts, assuming respawns aren’t disabled, sometimes a rare boss will respawn in place of where a normal mob previously stood, so SM-GY may be refarmable if you’re playing with friends.


Please feel free to share any other useful macros you may know of!

That first one is awesome; I can see use for this is really cluttered places like the orb to enter BWL.
