Wow Classic Macro Equip Slot

1. Macros 101

Equipping items Macro There are three commands for equipping items: /equip, /equipslot, and /equipset. /equip simply takes an item name and will equip it to the default slot as if you had right-clicked it in one of your bags. /equipslot takes an inventory slot ID and an item name, and equips the item to the specified slot.

Open up the macro window. You can do this either by opening the main menu and selecting Macros, or by typing /macro (/m) in the chat box. At the top of the window, you'll see two tabs: General Macros and Yourname Specific Macros.

General macros are stored on an account-by-account basis and are shared by all your characters.

Coldrage Dagger Equip Macro. And 1 and 2 are the slots in the bag starting from the top left slot. Warcraft Community. To open the in-game Macro interface, type '/macro' or '/m'. Choose between the General and Character-specific macro tabs. Then click the 'New' button on the macro window. Choose a Name and an Icon so you can easily recognize your macro, then click 'Okay.' This addon lets you write macros up to 1023 characters long, and still have their icons update normally when you drag them to the action bar. If you're running low on macro slots, it also lets you write character-specific Long Macros, and have them take up an account-wide blizzard macro slot instead, or vice-versa! Sep 21, 2019 Place the UI-Button macro in the hotbar slot you want said weapon in, click it, and it will return the “name” of the button in your chat to enter in on your weapon swap macro. This will be different depending on what UI addon you use for your hotbars. Regardless though, you must enter the returned text exactly as shown or it will not work.

Immediately under the tabs is a grid of 18 boxes where the macros are displayed. Under those, there is a single box which displays your currently-selected macro with a Change Name/Icon button next to it. Below that is the edit box where you actually type the macro. Finally, at the bottom you have a number of self-explanatory buttons.

To create a macro, click the New button at the bottom of the window. This brings up another small window off to the side where you choose the icon and type a name for the macro. If you choose the question mark icon, WoW will automatically pick an icon for your macro based on what spells or items are listed in the macro. Once you have chosen an icon and a name, click the Ok button.

A few notes: You can control what icon is shown in place of the question mark with the #showtooltip command. Although you can name two macros the same.

Now you will notice that the macro icon you chose has been added to the 18 boxes mentioned earlier. The newly created macro will also be selected so now it's time to start writing your macro. Click in the edit box of the macro window to start typing.

Macros have a 255 character limit.

When you are done typing your macro, click the Save button, drag the macro's icon from the grid and place it on an action button.

Equipment slots in macros

Wow Classic Macro Equip Slot Car

When creating macros based on 'click to use' items (especially trinkets), the common practice is to enter the actual item name. However, using the numeric equipment slot identifiers eliminates the need to manually modify macros after upgrading a particular item.

These slot designations are particularly handy for engineers whose Tinker enhancements and Engineering-only items add and/or posses an 'on use' ability for items in the Back, Belt, Foot and Head slot that would not normally posses such capability for non-engineers.

Here are is a complete list of each equipment slot and its numeric designation for macro purposes
