Help With a WoW Macro? [Druid]

I'm trying to write a macro that will cast Dash if it's off CD and just shift me to Cat Form if it's not. Here's what I've got that doesn't work:

/castsequence reset=120 Dash, Cat Form(Shapeshift);

The Dash part works fine, but I would expect that the next time I hit the macro it would simply shift me to Cat Form, but it doesn't. It says "I can't cast that yet."

What am I doing wrong?

I'm no macro expert, but you're telling it to be stuck on Dash for 120 seconds. I'd suggest trying this:

Code:

---

/cast [noform:3] Cat Form(Shapeshift)
/cast Dash

---

Thanks. That works perfectly. I added a call to "/console Sound_EnableSFX 0" to get rid of the audio error spamming when Dash isn't ready and now I'm happy.

I hope the semicolon wasn't in your macro because that would have made it hang also. When doing the macros with parenthesis, I always strip them out and just use "Cat Form" etc.

In the original form of the macro I was trying to use the fact that Dash will automatically switch to Cat form, but as MiRai pointed out, it's a lot simpler to just switch to cat form and then cast Dash. That way I always get cat form and if Dash is off CD I get that, too.

I had a similar one, when I was boxing the Feral cats.

My cat form mapped key, had a mouse thumb button as the hot key.
It was something like this one:

#show Prowl
/cast [nostance:x] Cat Form
/cast Prowl!

I forget which stance was Cat Form.
I think 1 was bear, 2 was cat or something similar to that.

The exclamation was either before Prowl (!Prowl) or after (Prowl!).
This allowed the macro to activate the ability, but to not turn it off.
Making the macro spam friendly.

When are you coming back to WoW, Ualaa? You know you're going to. :) Have you gotten over your follow-rage yet? ;)

You've got so much knowledge and experience. It would be a shame for you not to come back. Especially for the new expansion...

My team is level 54 in Everquest I, at the moment.
Still having fun playing around there.

Free is a good price.
