Ah, thanks. I haven’t done anything with that kind of conditional before, so I was kind of hoping I was on the right track with it.

@ Fluffy: There’s one error in line 1 and line 3 is misplaced since the macro does not change your target. I believe this would work:

/cast [harm] Shadow Bolt
/cast [target=pettarget,harm] Shadow Bolt

or a shorter version:

/cast [harm] [target=pettarget,harm] Shadow Bolt

I think the following will do what you want, but (obviously) test to be sure

/cast [target=harm] Shadow Bolt
/cast [target=pettarget,harm] Shadow Bolt
/targetlasttarget

Hmm maybe you can help me out with a macro for with my Warlock. I want to use the target of my pet unless I have another target already chosen for casting my damaging spells. example:

VW has a mob targeted and pulling aggro on that one, I want to cast Shadow bolt on it without having to actually target the mob. I have my vw setup as my focus. Not sure if this makes any sense.

Nice post, As a player with the hobby of programming these macros are very fun to fiddle with. I definately like the breakdown of your more complicated macro line by line. It helps a guy like me customize my own setups. An idea for your next one, I have been looking for good mouseover macros for a while and have only found a few sources. Could you go over how they work so I could use yours or possibly customize it for my own use. Thanks for your help and keep up the good work on NoStockUI TheKunkelâ€™s last blog post..A Dragon point for me.
