Macro Trinket Slot Wow
- Oct 22, 2012 This brief Wow macro guide will teach you how to use items in a macro like potions, trinkets, belt tinkers and more. Adding macros to your dps, tank or healing rotation makes you a better player and more handsome than the next guy.
- The GCD is a mechanism used by Wow to limit you to only casting 1 thing at a time (most other trinkets are not on the GCD and can be used/cast at the same time as regular spells) and in Macros wow only tries to cast the 1st GCD-limited ability/spell/item and will ignore all others.
(Tested in 4.0) This macro will cast Charge in Battle Stance, Intercept in Berserker Stance and Intervene in Defensive stance if your target is friendly. Finally, this macro turns on your auto-attack if the target is hostile, cancels your Bladestorm and casts Battle Shout. This macro is compatible with the Juggernaut talent.

This page lists macro conditionals, keywords used with macro commands, the RestrictedEnvironment and the SecureStateDriver API to allow limited logic for player convenience without trivializing the game.
Refer to secure command options for syntax and making a macro for a tutorial.
Targeting keywords
Targeting keywords begin with @ and assign a temporary target to the macro command. (This does not change the player's selected target.)
- @unitId
- Any valid unitId.
- @cursor
- Immediately targets the ground under the cursor.
- @none
- Interupts auto self-cast and requires a targeting cursor.
Boolean conditions
All other conditionals evaluate as either true to execute the macro command, or false to skip it. The no prefix reverses this (ie, nodead means alive).
The following tables categorize each boolean condition by whether it evaluates the state of any target, only the player, or the user interface.

Wow Macro Use Trinket Slot
Macro Trinket Slot Wow Classic
I was wondering if there is a way to first check if my trinkets are off cooldown and THEN use /use them.
Here is what the problem is.
My macros look BASICALLY something like this.
Problem with this method is when my trinkets are on Cooldown I get bombarded withItem is Not Ready YetandSpell Is Not Ready Yeterror messages, which significantly reduce my casting speed, which is a BIG problem in PVP. You know every failed spell or trinket use trigger a GCD of like 0.5 or more.
I need some way to check if the trinkets are ready before executing the /use command and if they are still on Cooldown, the macro should skip the /use 13, 14 part and proceed directly with the spell-cast.
Here is how I imagine it, USING PSEUDO-CODE to just represent my idea.
Anyone got any idea how to resolve this ? I used the Search function but didn't find anything relevant to my problem.
