Logitech G15 Keyboard - (macros)
I have a logitech G15 Gaming keyboard and I completely endorse it’s use with World of Warcraft. It natively supports the WoW LCD stats, has a cool blue back-light with all the buttons, you can plug your mouse into the keyboard and route the cord underneath they keyboard as well, and it has 18 macro buttons with 3 sets freeing up 54 buttons to assign macros to.
Plus it has those little legs that you can stand up to make the keyboard tilt.
It comes with software that lets you assign keystrokes to a macro to handle some things for you - down to the amount of time you wait for cooldowns, etc.
And I haven’t been using it.
Well, I use it for 1 thing, which is pretty stupid - to feed my pet. I use a mod that I’ll be going over soon that helps me do this with 1 button press, but I really shouldn’t be using it for that. I should be using it to perform those perfectly timed cast sequences, PvP dominance, and Boss killing madness. The great thing about it is you aren’t confined by the macro rules in-game. You can chain cast everything you want if you allow ample time between the keystrokes for the global cooldowns associated with them.
Here are a few things I’ve thought about to actually make use of this great tool:
PvP Kiting escape (Iwin button)- cast Aspect of the monkey, cast wing clip, pet attack, cast bestial wrath*, cast intimidation, cast concussion shot, cast aspect of the cheetah**
This would allow me to hopefully escape an attack and get some ground on my attacker. First of all, my aspect should prevent me from getting dazed, the wing clip should slow them down - and if that misses, my pet is sent in to do the job and be unfearable. Hopefully at this point, I’m free of my enemy, and they are locked down or slowed and starting to get hit. I have a few options at that point - I could drop a frost trap, hit them with a sting, and possibly get more distance or hit them with a aim shot/steady shot, etc.
*I’ll add The beast within to that when I get it
**this would be bad if the target resists wing clip, intimidation, and the concussion shot, or you couldn’t get them off in time before you get stunned (this macro leaves you in aspect of the cheetah = more stunnage) - or they are a hunter themselves and hit me with a ranged shot to stun me…perhaps I would change this to aspect of the hawk. Otherwise, against a rogue or warrior, etc. I think it would be pretty good.
Save the clothie, save the world.- pet attack, cast intimidation, cast distracting shot, cast ice trap
I could probably add bestial wrath in there, but I just want to get something attacking the free mob as fast as I can, get it back to me, and trap it. Perhaps add a cower in there, or just recall your pet when it gets aggro to trap it away from the clothie.
Anybody have any other great ideas for hunters (or any other class for that matter) ? I’ll leave you with a sweet mount/dismount macro I got from wowwiki.
#showtooltip Ebon Gryphon /cast Aspect of the Monkey /stopcasting /use [button:2] Ebon Gryphon; Reins of the Swift Stormsaber /cast [mounted] Aspect of the Hawk
What this does is casts Aspect of the monkey before you mount, giving you a better chance at not being dismounted, then when hit again - will dismount you and cast aspect of the hawk so you kin get to yer massive amounts of sustained, ranged DPS.
The G15 will not get you banned from WoW. This is confirmed. It will let you pwn n00bs though.
