Yeah, dailys, general questing, rep farming, that kind of thing is what I had in mind Anything else and I'll usually pull out something specifically specced or something. It's also nice for when I'm in molten front... as when I CHOOSE my pet I usually like to choose my newest. Which right now is Solix, which I'm sure annoys some NPCscanners (even though I've usually seen at LEAST 4 or 5 other magma spiders/Skarrs while questing there). So at least now there's only a 50/50 chance of one of my molten front pets from being out heh.
So.... I've been reading through the threads (and yep, I finally broke down so I could talk on here too, w00t first post, lol). This one really caught my attention. I have a random vanity pet macro/addon, and one for my mounts, but yet I hadn't even considered a random combat pet one. I tended to stick to one pet (my white corehound, aptly named Cerberus) but this will really get me to use more of my pets than just him. So, I added the macro to my list of "must haves"... then, because some very good points were brought up, decided to tweak it a bit. So... Here's my macro:
/castrandom [mod:alt] Call Pet 1, Call Pet 2
/castrandom [mod:ctrl] Call Pet 3, Call Pet 4
/cast [btn:2] Call Pet 5
/castrandom [nopet] Call Pet 1, Call Pet 2, Call Pet 3, Call Pet 4, Call Pet 5
/cast [pet] Dismiss Pet
Ok, to break it down. Click with no mods will randomly spawn any of your five (remove any empty slots from the macro again). If you have a pet summoned, click with no mods, and it'll dismiss your pet. Say you have ferocity set as "1" and "2", alt click summons ferocity. I follow this with tenacity in "3" and "4" (control click to summon). And lastly, for when I actual decide to do battlegrounds I set one of my cunning pets in "5" for a right click summon.
Just remove any slots you aren't using for the random summon, and it's golden!
Hope this helps. ^.^
I'm all happy that people are liking my idea, and spreading it. And even improving on it! I was actually kind of surprised that this macro didn't seem to be ANYWHERE else (I actually did a google search, cause I wasn't sure if it would be this easy). So now I know if I see it anywhere, I'm the start of it all! muahahaha!!!
