WoW Rogue Macro - A Few Useful Rogue Macros

WoW Rogue Macro - A Few Useful Rogue Macros


The Rogue is a very difficult class to play. They usually have a lot of DPS but aren't very resilient. You must also use Stealth as often as possible to gain access to powerful abilities and also avoid being hit. Since those are a lot of buttons to push, it's always a good idea to have a good WoW Rogue macro by your side.

Fighting with a Rogue is more like an exact science. You have to use the right ability exactly when is needed. If you stun your opponent and not have enough Energy to do damage to him, you will lose. So you have to know what to use and when depending on the situation.

That means that you have to know a great deal of strategies. As you think about what you need to do, you must also pay a little attention to what buttons you need to push. That can be difficult for many people. That's why it is very important to use a good WoW Rogue macro.

By using macros, you will be able to do a lot more things by just pushing one button. That will make it easier on you and give you more time to come up with the required tactical solutions, rather than focusing on making the right key combinations for a skill or spell.

Here is a very good example of such a WoW Rogue macro:

#showtooltip [mod] 0 16; 17
/equipslot 17 0 16

This macro will enable you to switch your off hand weapons without having to open your bags or use the mouse to click on the weapon icon. You can do it in battle with the touch of a button. For the macro to work, simply store the secondary off-hand weapon in the 16th slot of your bag, which is the lower right corner of the main Backpack.

The next WoW Rogue macro is very useful because of what I was saying above about Stealth. It is very important to escape an opponent and use Vanish to avoid being defeated. Here is a macro for just that:

#showicon Vanish
/cast Cloak of Shadows
/cast Vanish

This macro will cast Cloak of Shadows first and then Vanish. Very useful to escape adds or a stronger opponent. CoS will purge you of any damage over time spells so they won't break the Vanish spell. Note that CoS will not work against physical DoTs like Rend or Gouge.

Any well made macro is a useful one. It will help you make room on your quick bars and also help you access abilities Faster and easier. But for this to really work, you need to make sure that you have a good source of macros. Out-dated or flawed ones will only waste your time. If you pick the right WoW Rogue macro, you will gain a lot.
