Silencing shoot is not on det global cooldown, and should be macroed to all your shoots.

And used unless some interuptrotation in raid i maid.

In your example macro at the end you have both Kill Command and Steady shot, wouldn’t that not work since they are both on the GCD (according to your list)?

Replicated this macro for rapid fire /trinket…..dps went up A LOT! Made possible in part by WHU!

#showtooltip chimera shot did the trick. .

If I remember correctly, Massai, it will show the cooldown of whatever you write first into the macro. So it’s likely that simply switching the order will do the trick.

I am trying to make a macro that casts chimera shot, silencing shot, and shoots my rocket glove. It works, but it show’s the 20 sec cooldown for silencing shot. How do I get it to show chumera shot’s 10 sec cooldown?

Here is a simple Misdirection macro I use…it requires a little bit of prep work before raids, but it works great…it allows you to cast the MD on your tank while not breaking focus of your current target

/cast Misdirection
/tar “tanks name” (without the quotation marks
/say Casting misdirection on “tanks name”

Line 3 is optional, but if there are other hunters in the raid, it lets them know that you are currently casting MD on the tank. Only 1 hunter can have MD casted on a tank, so it’s just a heads up…This is very simple and gets the job done for me without having to click my misdirect icon then target my tank, then go back to targeting the enemy…I also find it useful to put your pet on Passive while casting MD b/c while your MD starts a world cooldown, your pet usually get in 1 or 2 hits which only leaves you 1 hit to actually send some decent misdirected dmg to your tank.
HOPE THIS HELPS =D

fwiw, im still very curious about your md macro also curious about the survival rotation or steady shot macro you show us (if there is one). my rotation is so simple, i cant imagine making it simpler lol

thats one of the things i missed about marksman, it was more involved, i felt like a utility belt.
