/startattack should go AFTER cleave and heroic strike, this means your first auto will be HS / cleave rather than auto then queue HS / cleave if you have the rage already (chain pulling etc) #showtooltip /cast Heroic Strike /startattack
@@MutiKush while technically correct. This is a very nuanced thing in wow. But in actual use, order doesn’t matter. The order of the abilities in a macro ONLY matter if you’re not attacking yet (e.g., pulling a new mob), a /startattack executed first might trigger an unmodified auto-attack before HS or Cleave gets queued. This would result in a regular auto-attack, followed by the queued ability on your next swing.
It very much matters.. if cleave or HS is AFTER start attack then you will do a white hit BEFORE the skill ques for the NEXT auto therefore delaying the ability so HS/Cleave ALWAYS before start attack
@ it would be great because I wanna start learning early im new to tanking and I know its very different on classic but on DM I was loosing a lot of threat maybe I was not using my skills right

I noticed your comment on other warriors keeping up TC. For sure! And that applies to Demo shout too. I'd even appreciate that in SoD. No need to stance dance for TC but it would still save me time for more threat generating abilities.
Ty for the vid. Do you know if there is a heroic strike “toggle” macro. Like if I chance my mind I can turn it off before the hs hits to turn it back to a normal auto attack. Just in case I don’t want to rage dump??
the only toggleable heroic strike macro I know is this: #showtooltip Heroic Strike /startattack /cast Heroic Strike /stopcasting heroic strike I do not recommend it, because it relies on server lag to work and it doesn't actually queue heroic strike every single time. but it does work (most of the time) If you are a top 0.0001% warrior and want to do the heroic strike cancel thing to get rid of the offhand penalty, just make a macro with /stopcasting in it on a separate key to cancel it
Hey, Sanmedina I have a question regarding one of the macros in your video. I'm talking to the macro at timestamp 4:30 #showtooltip /startattack /use [nocombat] Charge; Hamstring ^ The macro above changes tooltip from "Charge" to "Hamstring" depending on if youre in combat or not. Is there a way to make the macro use/cast "Battle Stance" before "Charge" so that I can instantly "Charge" after pressing my button/macro ONCE, WHILE the macro still ONLY changes tooltip from "Charge" to "Hamstring"? Have a nice day
Actually, I've just found out that the macro below works somewhat like what I want. It just shows Battle Stance on the button/macro tooltip IF im NOT in Battle Stance and IF I am in Battle Stance it shows Charge and Hamstring, depending on IF im in combat or not. #showtooltip /startattack /use [nostance:1] Battle Stance /use [nocombat] Charge; Hamstring

@sanmedina rly been enjoying the videos I was wondering if you could do a guide on warrior tanking low lvl and high lvl
lvl 60 tank guide is coming out tomorrow, but perhaps I should go over low lvl stuff

I have my shield on Action Bar 5, button 10 - how to put it into the macro? MultiBarRightButton10 doesn't work

Great job, don't stop my friend. thanks!
Here's my taunt macro (not the end all be all but, it's a decent template to learn):
#showtooltip [stance:1] Mocking Blow; [stance:2] Taunt; [stance:3] Taunt
/startattack
/cast [stance:1] Mocking Blow; [mod:shift,stance:2] Battle Stance
/cast [stance:2] Taunt; [mod:shift,stance:1] Defensive Stance
/cast [stance:3] Defensive Stance
Best classic content creator at this point, keep it up!
AOE taunting with no LIP macro attached is hella wild

@@sanmedinathanks for the info. Yeah ima scrub who swings a slow 2hander and sometimes I change my mind about how I want to spend my rage 😂😂
Keep up the good work. Thx.
Question, does the macro so switch to sword and board also switch back to dps weapon or do we need to make a second macro to swap back?
if you fill all the lines with your items it does swap your weapons back, but it does not swap you back to battle stance though

Hey, Sanmedina I have a question regarding one of the macros in your video. I'm talking to the macro at timestamp 4:30

The macro above changes tooltip from "Charge" to "Hamstring" depending on if youre in combat or not.
Is there a way to make the macro use/cast "Battle Stance" before "Charge" so that I can instantly "Charge" after pressing my button/macro ONCE, WHILE the macro still ONLY changes tooltip from "Charge" to "Hamstring"?

SpellAnnouncer Classic got very similar function as Tankbuddy.
