Warriors: 2h-to-1hshield macro

[Gigamo]

Anyone got a working one for 2.0.1?

[RubiksCube]

weapon swaps (you shift-click your weapon / shield etc into your macro ..)

DW to 2h and back to DW :
Quote:
/equipslot 16 Maladath, Runed Blade of the Black Flight
/equipslot 17 Qiraji Sacrificial Dagger
/equipslot 16 The Untamed Blade



Shield :
Quote:
/equipslot 16 Maladath, Runed Blade of the Black Flight
/equipslot 17 Drillborer Disk

Thanks, works =)

i just use:

/equip Blessed Qiraji Bulwark
/equip Bloodlord's Defender
/equip Kalimdor's Revenge


as the /equipslot xx macro give me some error from time to time ( cannot put the item in correct slot so i end with only defender or shield )

No problem so far with /equip weapon's name

[Margus]

i hate 2.0, weapon switches causes lags like hell.

[onyx]

odd, don't have any lag issues.

I tried the /equipslot but get an error even though it switches the proper weapons/shield.

[Soruss]

I don't get an error or anything using the equipslot macro. But it's really flaky. Sometimes it won't equip my weapon or shield until I deselect my target. Other times I want to go back to my 2h and it will only unequip 1h or shield without equipping 2h. Sometimes I have to spam it and/or deselect my target to get it to work. Other times it works flawlessly :|

[RubiksCube]

I use the same macro to swap/use trinkets btw.

Like, I have the Insignia in Trinket Slot 1 (Slot 13) and want to exchange it with Blackhand's Breadth when it is on cooldown.

I use

/equipslot 13 Insignia of the Horde
/equipslot 13 Blackhand's Breadth
/use 13

When I'm not in Combat, it'll switch trinkets and not use them. When I'm in Combat it'll use the insignia because you can't change the equipped trinket.

I've not had any problems with it, really love to have it on a single keypress.

So how do i make a properly working macro from DW to 1h and shield and back to DW? is that possible with 1 macro or?

[RubiksCube]

That really depends on what kind of weapons you are using to dw.

I you use a set where one weapon is the designated mainhand and one is the designated offhand like the Sword or Fist Set from ZG you can just use the

/equip Weaponname

Command.

If not, you'll have to use the item slots, like this:

/equipslot 16 Mainhand Name
/equipslot 17 Offhand Name
/equipslot 16 Tank Mainhand Name
/equipslot 17 Shield Name

That should do it.

Thanks man. (=

[Margus]

the equip macros just got one problem if you're trying to put in a weapon that is already equipped then it throws out an error. happened when i tried to put my Iblis from off hand DW setup to the main hand in the tanking ones.
If you got this problem you also need to make two seperate macros, one for shield and one for dw cause you'll need to click it twice and when you doubleclick on a combined macro like Rubik ones it just switches back to dw.

DW:
/equipslot 16 Hatchet of Sundered Bone
/equipslot 17 Iblis, Blade of the Fallen Seraph

Tank:
/equipslot 16 Iblis, Blade of the Fallen Seraph
/equipslot 17 Blessed Qiraji Bulwark

It says that the item is not found when you just click once on the macro, then it changes the other item (eg. takes out Iblis and switch in shield) when you now click another time on the macro it will switch in Iblis cause it now is in your inventory. Mostly happens to fury Thunderfury users when they wanna go tank :D
dunno if there's an workaround

[RubiksCube]

I can think of a very simple workaround, don't know if it works ingame, but it should by logic.

The error you describe sounds like the /equipslot command can only look at bags for the specific weapon and if it ain't in there it gives the "Item not found" error.

So, by logic, to go around that you should simply put the weapon that is used in both templates into the bag first. How do you do that? Quite simple:


/equipslot 16 Hatchet of Sundered Bone
/equipslot 17 Iblis, Blade of the Fallen Seraph
/equipslot 17 Blessed Qiraji Bulwark
/equipslot 16 Iblis, Blade of the Fallen Seraph

This way you'll equip the shield first, putting Iblis in the backpack, than equip Iblis. If you press again it'll put in the Hatchet first, putting Iblis in the backpack, than equip Iblis. Very simple.

I'd be glad if you could confirm if it works ingame or not.

[Margus]

yeah sounds logical :D, gonna test it when i'm at home.
