Some of the WoW macros that I’m going to outline here are more or less useful in than just for role play. Anyway, the first two ones are more like show off World of Warcraft macros, for players that have a ton of mounts and companions.
Anyway, here are the WoW macros that I want to tell you about.
WoW Macros for Mounts
As I just said, if you have many mounts and you would like to use them all not just one, you can make a random mount summoning World of Warcraft macro like this one:
/userandom [mount 1],[mount 2],[mount 3] etc.
By pressing this WoW macro, your character will randomly summon one of the mounts that you currently use. Of course, in battlegrounds you won’t be able to summon any flying mount, so the first one on the mounts list should be a flying mount that can be summoned in a BG, like a hippogryph for example. However, you shouldn’t mix the mounts. I have a macro like this that summons only my flying mounts and one for ground mounts.
You can bind this macro on your usual mount key, but if you prefer only one of the mounts, it’s probably a better idea to find a different WoW keybind for it.
WoW Macro for Companions
I’ve always been a pet collector in WoW and I now have about 80 companions which I like to show off with. However, it sucks to open the companions menu all the time to select one from there when I want to summon one. So, here’s a nice World of Warcraft macro for it:
/run SummonRandomCritter()
I know this WoW macro doesn’t seem to have any logic, however I’m not a LUA expert, I don’t know why it’s written like that. The point is it works, so that’s enough for me.
Since this is a RP macro, you should find a less used WoW keybind for it.
WoW Macro for Targeting
This is a World of Warcraft macro that I use when I look for rare creatures. Although the NPC Scan addon does that for you, sometimes it doesn’t point out a certain mob for many reasons.
This macro is very simple to write:
/target [creature or player name]
This World of Warcraft macro is meant to be spammed, so bind it somewhere in your main bar or on a key in your left hand’s reach.
