hello a while back i saw that you could bind a key to make the warrior switch from a 2 handed to 1h + shield to shieldbash then switch back, i never used this fuction becuse i had no warrior at that time

but now it seems to be gone, did it not work as intended tivoli? If its still in there somewhere plz let me know :D

is this macro or addon possible? If anyone can help me out with it i would be greatfull, where do i find it :cry:

Never got it completely working, and haven't had the time to really work on it in a while.

I've had a homebrew (read: not user friendly) script that takes care of 3-way weapon swapping for me for a while. It was a little buggy (under heavy lag, stuff ended up where it shouldn't) until I referred to some of the safeguards used by the lua script in the following mod:

http://www.geocities.com/tanthorjen/weaponswitch.htm

That would be a good starting point for what you're looking for (if you re-distribute, obviously credit the other mod's contribution).

Just need to add the following functions (not that much work from the above mod - hint, strip out the UI stuff and just define your own sets and swapping logic for the toggle):
ForceTwoHand()
ForceSheild()
ForceDualWield()

Then you make an in game macro like this:
/script ForceShield()
/script cast ShieldBash

and assign the macro to a button. Only problem is it won't light up when you don't have a shield equipped (but the coutndown will still be visible).
