Using attack skills such as Rend does not start your auto attacks in WoW Classic, and as such, you should aim to use a macro such as the one above to easily engage enemies. If you want to use it with other skills, just copy the code and replace Rend with the skill you wish to attack with. So in theory, you can Right-Click the macro to equip the first named items, or Left-Click the macro to equip the second named items. MAIN-HAND WEAPON SWAP (Right-Click / Left-Click) Left-click to equip the second weapon, right-click to equip the first weapon. /equipslot 16 button:2.
This post is not hunter specific, but it’s something I’d been meaning to share for awhile…

Yes folks… I have a macro for just about everything. 😉
While this may seem needless and a bit silly, it’s actually quite practical. This macro takes care of many tasks…
Pressing the macro for the first time will equip your fishing gear and apply a lure. After that, the macro will simply cast your fishing line. When your lure wears off, the macro will automatically reapply it when needed. There are a couple of other lines in there to mute the error spam (fishing lure not ready yet, etc.), but still allow you to still hear the whiz of the fishing reel, as well as the splash of water when you have a fish on the line.
The macro just basically makes it really easy to toss on all of your +fishing gear, equip your pole, and never forget to keep your fishing lure buff applied. Nothing super fancy, but a space-saving convenience macro nonetheless. It’s a one-button solution for fishing. 🙂
Those of you who like to do a little fishing now and again – you should try it. Be sure to replace or add any additional pieces of equipment if your fishing gear differs from mine.
I created it a few months ago when I started going after the Blacktip Shark. I haven’t had any luck catching it yet, but at least the event caused me to script this macro. 😉
