Arena Targeting Macros

Arena Targeting Macros


Although there are certain spells that should innately have arena 1-3, I would still recommend having target & focus arena 1-3 macros as to facilitate setting and switching focus. With spells like displacer beast and spectral guise being added to Mist of Pandaria, it has become increasingly difficult to keep a focus target.

Macros for targeting enemy players

Press macro to target, add any modifier plus macro to focus

Arena target & focus
/focus [mod,@arena1][] %f
/target [nomod,@arena1][] %t

Arena target & focus 2
/focus [mod,@arena2][] %f
/target [nomod,@arena2][] %t

Arena Target & focus 3
/focus [mod,@arena3][] %f
/target [nomod,@arena3][] %t

Macros for targeting friendly players

Add /target  and the name of your toon and your teammates. Examples:

Self
/target stormclaw

Healer
/target frunkyup

Dps
/target xpekted


 

Absolutely Must have Warrior Macros

Absolutely Must Have Warrior Macros

With the addition of the Mist of Pandaria the number of  must have macros has gone down considerably but there still remain some very useful ones. This blog is accurate as of patch 5.1.0a Word of Warcraft Mist of Pandaria.

Best Hunter PVP Talents

The Absolubtly Best Hunter PVP Talents for World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria 

Welcome adventurer's this is a quick guide for Hunter pvp talent's for patch 5.0.5



Talent Breakdown


Crouching Tiger, Hidden Chimera is a must have against caster teams for the reduced cooldown on Deterrence.  It can be swapped out for
Narrow Escape in order to trap a hunter's Stampede, landing a trap, and rooting dps out of position.


 Silencing Shot is great for stopping a mages opener or cc'ing a healer.







Aspect of the Iron Hawk is a must have for hunter's in arena. Exhilaration is useless if you can't use it while stunned. Since hunter's are likely to die in a stun, the passive damage reduction from Iron Hawk is an absolute must have.





Thrill of the Hunt is great for Beast Mastery, with this talent you will hardly ever find the need for Cobra Shot.






Blink Strike is great for positional reasons, but Lynx Rush is still great for burst as of patch 5.0.5. With 5.1 coming soon Lynx Rush will lose it's burst but will still be good in terms of low gcd count.





Glaive Toss is almost unanimously the best tier 6 talent. Power Shot is decent but hard to get off in arena.







You can also use these in arena
























Narrow Escape is great for putting melee dps out of position while training a healer. You can also use Narrow Escape to land a freezing trap or for peeling





Dire Beast is used by some to troll the enemy team into thinking you popped stampede. It's decent damage but Thrill of the Hunt is better in terms of energy efficiency.





Lynx Rush is great for it's burst and low gcd count. With the upcoming nerfs to Lynx Rush in patch 5.1 Blink Strike will look much more promising.







Powershot has potential for burst in battlegrounds and in arena under casting speed increases. Unlike Glaive Toss, it wont break cc as easily and has more burst.

Avensky Addon Review: Auctionator

Good evening everyone, today were going to take a look at the action house addon Autionator. The pros of using this addon is facilitated aution house posting and undercutting. The drawbacks of this addon is slow posting times, but extremely powerful in terms of flipping prices.

How to use Auctionator to check for profitable items

Step 1: Open up the auction house
Step 2: Check AH prices by going to the "BUY" tab
Step 4: Click on the search bar
Step 5: Left click any items you think might be worth making.

Example 1

I have 4 Sun's radiance left in my bags and i want to know which cuts will give me more profit. In this example it looks like the raw gem is worth more then the cut versions. Notice the X's and Check Mark's.  The Check Marks's mean that I currently have some items listed as the lowest price and X's mean i have been undercut.

How to use shopping list

Step 1: Open the auction house
Step 2: Go to the "Buy" tab
Step 3: Click on "New Shopping List"
Step 4: Search for the item you want to craft and click "add item"
Step 5: Search for the mats one at a time and click "add item" for each one
Step 6: Click "Search for All Items"
Step 7: Check prices to see which items are worth making


Example 2

It takes 3 Starlight Inks to make any of the 3 enchants. In this example it would take 150g per enchant so making a few  Greater Crane Wing Inscription for 20g profit each. Also remember that if you mill for the starlight's it will be more profitable to sell the starlight's on their own and a cpl Greater Crane Wing Inscription. Try not to make too many or sell them too quickly or you will tank the price.

Using Auctionator to post items

Step 1: Open up the game menu>interface>addons>autionator>selling
Step 2: Select the type of Items your selling
Step 3: Edit the default behavior
Step 4: Click "New" for any special items or any non default items


Example 3

For “cut gems” you usually want to post 3 or 4 at a time in stacks of 1. For uncut gems you might want to sell 10+ gems in stacks of 1.

Using Auctionator to check for Undercuts

One of the beauties of this addon is the ability to check for undercuts and being able to cancel undercut auctions with ease.

Step 1: Click "check for undercuts"
Step 2: Wait for scan to finish
Step 3: Spam the "Start canceling" buton


Ease of Use: 5 stars
Posting speeds: 3 stars
Acuracy: 5 stars

Best Warrior PVP Talents

The Absolutly Best Warrior PVP Talents for World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria

Welcome adventurer's this is a quick guide for warrior pvp talent's for patch 5.0.4 UPDATED GUIDE HERE!

If you don't have the time for a theory-crafting here is a cookie cutter build that works great in any situation. Below is a brief explanation of these talents. More advanced guides on the way.


Talent Breakdown

Juggernaut is important because without it, staying on target is almost impossible. Consider that a mage can blink every 15 seconds and hunter can disengage every 16 seconds with Crouching Tiger, Hidden Chimera. If you like the Warbringer stun i suggest taking Dragon Roar instead of Shockwave since the diminishing returns is not worth taking both talents.


Second Wind is great because it's a passive heal that works even when the warrior is stunned and does not take up a global cooldown. Now, Enraged Regeneration is also a great but at the moment second wind is the best option hands down. It's almost impossible to kill a warrior through second wind without cooldowns.




Piercing Howl was part of a tier of talent's hard to choose from but, in the end the deciding factor was the factor was considering which talent would help my teammates out the most. Piercing howl is great because it's basically spamable and help out my partner's live longer against both melee cleaves and caster cleaves.



Shockwave was almost a nobrainer for most since it adds a ton of dynamic gameplay to the warrior class. A 20 second cooldown cone stun is amazing to say the least. Shockwave along with the Glyph of Gag Order basically bring the epic feel of Wrath of the Lich King prot warriors to the arms spec.  These two new abilities basically revived warrior's back to the arena pvp scene.



Safeguard can be swapped out for Mass Spell Reflection at any given time but generally safeguard is better for random bg's since most warrior's wont have a dispeller or partner with hand of freedom to help get the warrior out of roots and snares. Personally, I use this spell for running away with my intervene banner macro but it's also great for keeping healers alive. Mass spell reflect is doing amazing in arena at the moment so don't hesitate to swap between the two when necessary.



Avatar is in the last tier and there has been literally zero debate whether it's the best talent or not. While it does not make the warrior immune to stuns like the old Bladestorm, it does in fact protect the warrior from snares and the dps increase from this ability is enough to make any class gawk at the sheer damage that a warrior can dish out in just a matter of seconds.


This is alternative build you can use in arena.






















Double Time is not that great but it is an alternative to Juggernaut if you so wish.






Mass Spell Reflection is amazing in arena and can help prevent cc on your healer. This adds a lot of utility to the warrior class.
