Feral Druid Macros
Welcome to our Addons and Macros page. Here we will cover some basic macros that can help enhance your gameplay, and recommend some addons that make playing Feral Druid more comfortable.
Generic Macros for Druids
Rebirth
- #showtooltip Rebirth
- /cast [@mouseover,help]Rebirth;Rebirth
This macro casts Rebirth on your mouseover target, if they are a friendly player. Otherwise, it casts Rebirth on your current target.
Remove Corruption
- #showtooltip Remove Corruption
- /cast [target=mouseover,help,nodead][target=target] Remove Corruption
Using this macro will cast Remove Corruption on your mouseover target, if they are a friendly player and they are not dead. Otherwise, it will cast Remove Corruption.
Specific Macros for Feral Druids
Regrowth Macro
This macro allows you to cast Regrowth, prioritizing your mouseover, and if you have no ally, then it will default to casting on yourself. The Autounshift command is placed to avoid casting Regrowth unless Predatory Swiftness is active to avoid leaving Cat Form.
- #showtooltip Regrowth
- /run SetCVar("autoUnshift",0)
- /cast [@mouseover,@player] Regrowth
- /run SetCVar("autoUnshift",1)
Unfortunately, this macro has been made non-functional due to some recent changes. If this changes and a new macro becomes available, this section will be updated.
Skull Bash Focus Interrupt
This will target your interrupt on your focus, so you do not need to switch targets for a key cast. Note you need to set up your focus beforehand with a /focus macro for this to work.
- #showtooltip
- /stopcasting
- /cast [@focus,exists][@target] Skull Bash
Mouseover Adaptive Swarm
For situations where you need to reapply Adaptive Swarm to maintain stacks with Unbridled Swarm, this can be useful. This can also be used to apply Moonfire with Lunar Inspiration more conveniently. Note that this will only apply to enemies; if you want to refresh on allies, remove the harm added to each bracket.
- #showtooltip
- /cast [@mouseover,harm,nodead], [@target,harm,nodead] Adaptive Swarm
Innervate Macros
Casting Innervate quickly when a healer needs it so you can get back into Cat Form has two options. You can either opt to focus your assigned healer and cast on them with this macro:
- #showtooltip
- /cast [@focus,nodead], [@target,nodead] Innervate
Or use a mouseover macro and highlight them from your raid frames:
- #showtooltip
- /cast [@mouseover,nodead], [@target,nodead] Innervate
Otherwise both of these macros will default to casting on your current target when used.
Mass Entanglement / Ursol's Vortex
This macro will allow you to use the same keybind for the crowd-control choice node on the class tree. This can be done for other choice nodes as well, such as Mighty Bash / Incapacitating Roar if you replace the spell names:
- #showtooltip
- /cast [known:Ursol's Vortex] Ursol's Vortex; [known:Mass Entanglement] Mass Entanglement
Ursol's Vortex into Typhoon
This macro can be used as a cast sequence on the same keybind to cast Ursol's Vortex into Typhoon to pseudo-grip enemies in 2 key presses. The @cursor is to instantly place the Vortex at your cursor, and can be removed if you want to manually press it, or replace with @player if you want to place it underneath yourself:
- #showtooltip
- /castsequence [@cursor] reset=20 Ursol's Vortex, Typhoon
This macro will stop your current cast and cast Skull Bash on your focus if available; otherwise, it will be cast on your target.
Recommended Addons for Feral Druids
Generic Addons for Druids
ElvUI
ElvUI is a complete replacement of the default User Interface. It comes with almost everything you need to perform properly: action bars, unit frames, cooldown timers, proc displays, etc.
Weak Auras
WeakAuras is an extremely useful addon that allows you to have visual effects on your screen, helping you track your buffs, debuffs and cooldowns. It is highly customisable and it can make it much, much easier to keep track of your procs and play your spec more proficiently. It can also be used for a variety of other functions.
Boss Mods: Deadly Boss Mods or Bigwigs
Boss mods are addons that warn you about boss abilities and give you live advice on how to handle some mechanics. We strongly recommend you to get one such addon. At Icy Veins, we mostly use Deadly Boss Mods, the most popular boss mod. A good alternative is Big Wigs.
Details!
"Details!" Damage Meter is a real-time DPS/HPS meter with a lot of additional functionality such as being able to see cooldowns, buffs, debuffs, damage done to specific targets, and statistical analysis. In our opinion, it is superior to Skada in terms of functionality, although it is slightly more complicated to configure. We recommend Details! as your default damage meter, but if you prefer something easier, then Skada is still a good option.
Hekili
Hekili is a visual rotation aid that gives a visual cue to help players better grasp the moment-to-moment gameplay that can sometimes be overwhelming. It is regularly updated to align with new simulation profiles as and when they are created, and we highly recommend it as a tool both to learn with and as a helping hand to steer you along the right path, even for experienced players.
