pounce/startattack macro.Follow

I tried searching for variations before posting and tested them.
Below is one of variations. I tried a lot of them.

/cast [stealth] pounce
/startattack


My problem is, 50% of the time I get no Pounce while in stealth and just start to autoattack but sometimes pounce goes off. What I want to have is 100% pounce in stealth and 100% attack button, which goes on/off when not stealthed. Could anyone help please.

well, first off, pounce already initiates attack, so if you pounce someone youll start auto-attacking at the same time.

but i dont think you want that. i think you want a key that can be used to attack while unstealthed. theres a way to macro it, but i just use the default T, which serves the same purpose as an attack macro.

however, if all else fails, try checking out RPzips macro faq in the main forums, or pm him personally if you tried that and are still having trouble.

Perhaps if you change it to

/cast [stealth] Pounce
/startattack [nostealth]

But like Quor said, pouncing already starts you off with attacking, so this isn't really very useful.

If you are looking to save space, perhaps

/cast [stealth] Pounce; Mangle (Cat)()

would help?

I have the same key as pounce when stealthed and mangle when unstealthed.

However, this could be useful in situations where I don't have enough energy or rage to use mangle.

does /startattack just start an attack? or is it a toggle (meaning if you are already attacking does it turn it off)?

Oh that's a good idea, which I'm gonna steal and combine with
my own favorite macro to come up with a doozy.

My most frequently used macro is the one that does this:
- If not stealthed and out of combat: Prowl
- If stealthed: Pounce
- If stealthed, w/ shift modifier: Ravage

Combining that with yours, I'm gonna have one that does this:
- If not stealthed and out of combat: Prowl
- If stealthed: Pounce
- If stealthed, w/ shift modifier: Ravage
- If in combat: Mangle
- If in combat, w/ shift modifier: Shred

I'm not smart enough to try writing the code here out-of-game, but that
should be a piece of cake and will cover my most frequently used attacks.

/cast [nocombat] Stealth
/cast [nomodifier] [stealth] Pounce; Mangle (Cat)()
/cast [modifier:Shift] [stealth] Ravage; Shred

Was thinking somewhere along the lines of this, but it doesn't work. Can anyone help?

Not exactly what you were trying to do Bloodthunder, but here's what I use, and couldn't do without.

Mapped on Mouse Scroll Down
/cast [stance:0,modifier:ctrl] Dire Bear Form
/cast [stance:3,combat,nostealth,harm] Shred
/cast [stance:3,nostealth] Prowl
/cast [stance:0,nostealth] Cat Form
/cast [stance:3,stealth,harm] Pounce
/cast [stance:1,harm] Maul


Mapped on CTRL+ Scroll Up
/cancelform
/cast [noswimming] Travel Form
/cast [swimming] Aquatic Form


What it does on scroll down: Will first shift to Cat. On next scroll down, stealth. Then Pounce, then Shred. CTRL+Scroll Down will shift you to Bear. Then it will make you use Maul.

CTRL+ Shift up will return you to caster form, and then when used again to whichever traveling form you can use. Haven't put flying form in there because I don't have it yet.

So basically, I'll only be using the mouse to shift to any form, plus to open combat. Also, during a fight while you're trying to position yourself for Shred, just spamming scroll down is a lot easier than pushing a button.

Hope it helps!
