Balance Druid: Macros

Keys for Balance, ready to paste into the game's macro window: the spec's own, then the ones every Druid shares.

Type /macro in chat to open the macro window, make a new macro, and paste the body in. #showtooltip gives the button the spell's icon. A macro holds 255 characters. Each says whether it has been tested in WoW Forever; most have not yet.

A good first macro

Wrath, then two StarfiresFrom level 20

#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=target/combat/12 Wrath, Starfire, Starfire

The Eclipse rotation on one key: Wrath loads the buff, and the next two Starfires cast faster. With Eclipse the Starfires are quicker; without it this is a plain Wrath-Starfire pattern. The 12-second timer restarts each press. Untested

Uses: Wrath, Starfire

Core rotation

Moonfire, Shift for Insect SwarmFrom level 25

#showtooltip Moonfire
/cast [mod:shift] Insect Swarm; Moonfire

Both damage-over-time spells on one key: press for Moonfire, hold Shift for Insect Swarm. Use it when you pull or switch target. Untested

Needs Insect Swarm.

Uses: Moonfire, Insect Swarm

Moonkin Form and StarfireFrom level 40

#showtooltip Starfire
/cast !Moonkin Form
/cast Starfire

Enters Moonkin Form and casts Starfire on the same key; the shift uses the global cooldown, so press twice from another form. The ! keeps a second press from leaving the form. Untested

Needs Moonkin Form.

Uses: Starfire, Moonkin Form

Cooldowns and burst

Trinkets, then StarfireFrom level 20

#showtooltip Starfire
/stopmacro [noharm][dead]
/use 13

Interrupts and control

Mouseover Entangling RootsFrom level 8

Roots the enemy under your cursor without dropping your target. Use it on an add that is running at a caster. Untested

Leave Moonkin for a quick healFrom level 12

/cast [mod:shift,@mouseover,help,nodead][mod:shift,help,nodead][mod:shift,@player] Rejuvenation; [@mouseover,help,nodead][help,nodead][@player] Regrowth

Healing spells cannot be cast in Moonkin Form, so this drops the form first and heals the friend under your cursor, your target or you. Shift casts Rejuvenation. Untested

Uses: Regrowth, Rejuvenation

Every Druid

Innervate the friend under your cursorFrom level 40

#showtooltip Innervate
/cancelform [form]

#showtooltip [mod:shift] Thorns; Mark of the Wild

Uses: Abolish Poison, Remove Curse

Rebirth in combat, Revive outside itFrom level 20

#showtooltip [combat] Rebirth; Revive
/cancelform [form]
