PvE Hunter Macros and Keybinds

[xXNewSuprizeXx]

when i heard mana im like WHEN THE FUCK WAS THIS MADE

[Snip3rSapmi]

@xXNewSuprizeXx

In Wotlk lol

[RALDSr]

I wish you were a little louder

[SanguineBullet667]

i can never understand how people can be comfortable pressing the F keys at the top, i never keybind anything to them.

[TheShatarEUisMyHome]

@SanguineBullet667

Why exactly? I've always used F keys to pop Cooldowns, never really had a problem with it ^^

Except when gaming in the dark.. I don't know why, I never look at my keyboard. But when there's no light I sometimes hit ESC instead xD Same as failing to type (having my hand 1 key too far to the right, and then typing complete nonsence :P)

[blazingworriors]

How would i type up a maco if i wanted to put arcane shot and serpent sting in 1 macro?

[InTheoryGuild]

@blazingworriors They're on the same Global Cooldown so that Macro wouldn't work sorry.

[suxarik86]

WOW !!! nice

[MrPazoBK]

@Kripparrian any chance on an update for cata 4.2?

[rautinols]

if you bind steady shot on mousewheel , how do you zoom in and out camera ?

[MrScottracy]

Omg are u seious ?

[dunderlil]

@rautinols seriously`?. change keybind on zoom maybe. doh

[Snip3rSapmi]

@rautinols

That's not necesary..

However you can bind zoom in / out to another key.

[Alexander3839]

How do you put keybindings to your mouse, are you using a special program or waht do use?

[TheDarkAengel]

Kill Command does infect the dps of you pet, and As all Hunters should Know: Count in your pets dps to yours!

[eugeplaja]

I noticed you no longer macro silencing shot into every other shot. I used your macros pre 4.06 and have just now come back to my hunter and none of the old macros work. Is that because you can no longer macro silencing shot into every cast?

[peytos1]

@eugeplaja why would you? silencing shot does no damage anymore. shouldnt be macroing it anymore, nor kill command

[punkzorr]

should i bind buffs and pet spells like mend to keybindings? and what things should i just click and not bind like food/drinks, mount etc...?

[itsallinthebank]

how do you know wat symbols and things like that to use to make a macro

[Trialmt]

not sure y its spacing in between lines below >.<

[wowrivsand]

@Trialmt read the uploader comments and read his explanation

[Trialmt]

A simple yet effective Wyvern Sting CC macro. It wont let your pet charge in a big group of mobs and sit behind em and cancels auto shot. Good for when your the 1st to CC.

#showtooltip Wyvern Sting

/cast Wyvern Sting

/stopcasting

/petpassive

/petdefensive

[kaitoshijo]

@Trialmt To be more on the safe side, incase something goes wrong etc, I would suggest putting petpassive before /cast. IMO

[zejtunguitarist10]

I love you krippapirian

[Kviksi9139]

i use shift and ctrl as modifier :P

[icurcuwl]

@Kviksi9139 So do I! =) Alt is very unpractical for me as I bound movement to E, S, D, F (I'm playing warrior mostly) to free up more keys to hit with my pinky =) When I see Kripp's bindings I don't really see what keys he'd want to hit with his pinky, so I get this feeling he's only using four fingers on his left hand (assuming he's controlling the mouse with his right hand).

[Thesilveredge1]

@icurcuwl he uses his pinky for his modifier

[SLREAC]

IS THIS ANDY SIXX?

[Joebobpa3]

I dont understand what the !auto shot does, and why that would increase dps

[LKxDESIGN]

@Joebobpa3

Let's you cast an auto shot while casting the spel.. in exemple while casting steady shot without the !auto you cast a auto shot before and not during.. with !auto shot you can before and during so it makes more auto shots in total.

[penisficker]

is the makro with the auto shot before the other shots still usefull after 4.01?

[Dudley9990]

/script UIErrorsFrame:Hide()

this put into the macros can stop the "Can't cast that yet" error showing up... nice if you spam/button mash

[Alexzanzininja]

WHY WON'T MODIFIER COMMANDS WORK FOR MEH? lol

[moltlaspin]

Kripp, you should really get yourself a razer naga. It's great if you have a lot of spells to use etc. I use it for myself on my main char, a prot warr. And I'm spamming like 15 Spells and keybindibgs at a time... Just a tip. other thatn that your vids are awsome! Keep it up;)

[bozeez91]

@Kripparrian Hey Krip, Did ur dps increase or decrease after 4.0 ? honestly :P .. And do u think Blizzard will buff hunters in cata? bcuz srsly killshot crits for like 15k in icc is a joke."with a good gear" and if u check the forums every1 is whining about their hunters :P

[deadjae]

Oi mate how can i bind Trap Launcher and A Trap together? it doesnt work for some reason??

[cwiya]

Kripp m8, tell me plz what are the keyz:

/use 13

/use 14

cant figure it out,i guess that are some pots :)

[hengamos]

@cwiya trinkets

[MrRozitta]

kripp please add helpfull movie with pvp sv macro

[matt71893]

I have a problem I hope you can help me with. I try to mouse-bind but whenever I try, nothing happens. I mean like, the game won't recognize the mouse buttons as keybinds. The scroll wheel works (scrolling and clicking) but that's it.

[Sludgeify]

I changed [raid] to [group] and that worked, no idea why [raid] isn't working though.

[Sludgeify]

Kripp, I just can't get your saronite bomb/chimera shot macro to work, have any idea why? I've tried being in raid/inside a raid instance cause I guess that's what the [raid] does but it just doesn't work for me and it's exactly the same macro.

[Coolerdude46]

wheres your freezing trap macro

[et1elita]

What are the keyboard and the mouse you're using?

[Kripparrian]

@et1elita Steelseries 7g and X7 XL 750-BF

[Smush81]

I noticed that there were some spaces between lines in a few of your macros.. was that done on purpose?

[Kripparrian]

@Smush81 thanks for brining this to my attention. Im not sure why it came out that way. In any case, the formatting is now fixed. For anyone that was a bit confused earlier, just copy the new ones.

[FugitiveLama]

I am wondering what the /use 10 line is in the arcane shot macro

[Kripparrian]

@FugitiveLama /use 10 means use gloves. Basically as an engineer it uses my hypersped accelerators when I use arcane shot macro

[FugitiveLama]

@Kripparrian Thanks for the reply , I thought thats what it was but i wasn't sure , I will be sure to place that back into the macro as I am engi also. quick question for ya , have been applying to guilds(my 11/12 hardmode guild is falling apart) and they have been criticizing my choice in reforging crit into mastery , they keep siting the math on elitist jerks and saying I am going against all math that is out there , i agree with you and my tests and female dwarf seem to agree

[samuel623984]

@Kripparrian wouldnt you want to pop hyperspeed with rapid fire/berserking?

[HollywoodFap]

@samuel623984

hyperspeed and rapid fire share same cd, you can't use rapid fire for ?10-30? seconds after using the gloves, not sure exactly how much, been a while since I played my huntard.

[j4v1er21]

@Kripparrian i wanted to ask  if you have the /use 10 macro in all your shots, that way you would be using the maximun potential of the gloves, right?

[Macasan11]

Do you still use Silencing Shot in all shot macros?

[Kripparrian]

@Macasan11 no

[IIlidanStormrage]

Where is disengage on your keybinds?

[IIlidanStormrage]

@IIlidanStormrage Nevermind, saw it. :)

[Squ3z]

@IIlidanStormrage

mouse2 disengage

[IIlidanStormrage]

@Squ3z L2Readcomments

[Kripparrian]

re-updated all macros and binds to my current setup which I have carefully refined. I will make a post in a few days so that information can be viewed more clearly.

[Abhorrsen]

Hopefully ya can give me some help here, been trying to find a replacement. Speedy Actions. Still using it post 4.0, or like my situation, has speedy become buggy? If you've switched to a new addon, would you mind sharing?

[Ocelot2000]

This might be a dumb question but I've been gone a year almost from the game. Why is silencing shot not in the macro's now? If this has been covered before, again, my apologies. Also, should auto be put on instant shots or not, people seem to be arguing that point out. Thanks in advance!

[alketire]

@Ocelot2000 silencing shot no longer does dmg. as to the !auto shot thingy... I don't know enoughe about what it does to give you an accurate answear to that

[LKxDESIGN]

no disengage+parachute macro?

[Kripparrian]

fixed steady macro. Sorry for error. Been at Blizzconzzz

[tibetansoul1]

@Kripparrian sweet! any footages?

[marc1706]

/cast [target=CHARACTERNAME] Master's Call

-> /cast [target=player] Master's Call

[zazooxav78]

the line /cast !autoshot works only with spells that are not instant like aimed and steady shot.

When you fire an instant autoshot will begin automatically so dont write this line for instant.

Moreover there is a problem when you want to stop dps with the maccro with /cast !autoshot in it, you cant clic on the autoshot icon for example, you must turn back to get out of combat.

And all the abilities that use that line constantly flash in red like the autoshot icon.

Thx for all your work dude

[sithlordna]

whats /use10 is the macro for?? is that one of yr eingener things?

[deadnox2]

Question. What's the /10 on the macros do?

[GiggityGooh]

@deadnox2 uses your gloves, i.e. engineer enchant.

[surfingusa1]

RF macro for 4.0: #showtooltip rapid fire

/castsequence call of the wild, rapid fire, steady shot

Just delete call of the wild if you don't want that in the macro

[kaitoshijo]

Hey bro, I was wondering if you were going to update this video for the new patch? Of if you were going to wait until Cataclysm actually comes out.

[eskarver]

@kaitoshijo in his newest video he said he will update it but probly hasnt gotten to it yet

[kaitoshijo]

@eskarver Thanks bro. I didn't catch that.

[candyazz28]

What does showtooltips do for macros?

[EurynomusBH]

All in 1 pet help button... If your pet is dead it will revive it, if your pet is alive it will mend it and if your right click the button it will dismiss it.

#showtooltip

/cast [nopet] Call Pet; [target=pet, dead] Revive Pet

/castsequence [pet, nomodifier, button:1] Mend Pet

/cast [button:2] Dismiss Pet

[kerrybynoe]

hi again. i just figured out what i was doing wrong. i copied the macros as is. My dps has improved much and as for pvp i'm 3 shotting almost everything. thanks man. you make hunter's life so much easier.

[kerrybynoe]

i must be doing something wrong. i'm a noob i admit. But for the steady shot macro i can't spam it. It casts steady shot once and the auto at the same time. after that i can't spam steady shot with that macro. please help.

[moonc4lf]

@kerrybynoe its becuse kill command is on cd and it cant cast untill its off

[helg101]

do the auto shot thing work with auto attack ? :D

[mitchtitzify]

You've made me re activate my wow account and play my hunter again your are a god. 

[LKxDESIGN]

@mitchtitzify

same, but like 3months ago. Im 80 now and loving hunter.

[AdamiteLightbringer]

When I make a macro for steady shot no matter what symbol I pick it turns. To a picture of my bow when I put it In my action bar any solutions?

[patzillu]

@Sanchezthecow

You can type: /use 10

This is your glove slot

[MrCaptstern]

I tried to go through the comments looking for a reason why you activate your RFS Macro after Aimed and not after SrS? Of course a fair amount of comments are about clicking...><...but anyone have any idea what the reasoning behind this is when the haste from RF doesn't really benefit steady shots and the RF buff would still affect procs in their entirety given the way it's chained back to back at the beginning of the fight.

[Waldrin18]

hi love your vid!

but i cant get your Aimed Shot macro to work and update

Looking forward for your answer!

[Sanchezthecow]

So im an engineer so im using the hand mounted pyro rocket for glove enchant. My question is how would i macro this into, say, my chimera shot macro.

For some reason I can't seem to make it work.

[ostliel]

@Sanchezthecow

In the last line of your macro its:

/use "name of gloves"

ignore quotations.

Only thing is you have to make sure you update your macros every time you get an upgrade to that slot. A little annoying, but after a while it won't take you more tan 5 minutes.

[CristianHenri]

@ostliel making a macro takes 5 seconds

[Bloddyhuntard]

Why do you use Wild magic potion? Ain't Haste one better?

[iplaylespauls]

@Bloddyhuntard No. You can prepot either Wild Magic or Haste prior to the fight then use Wil Magic either when you hit readiness/bloodlust or whenever Kill Shot is active all depending on the fight to maximize the crit from Kill Shot. Only thing that the haste pots will do is get your Autoshot out faster and inscrease Steady Shot's cast, but you will still have the 1.5 sec global cooldwon.

[megalo]

First, thank you for making these videos. They have been extremely beneficial. Anyway, I have some questions. Do you use a keybind to talk on vent? I have it mapped to one of my mouse buttons. Do to the macros you have on your mouse button, how do you turn your screen with your mouse or or mouseover a target with your mouse?

[csOnyk92]

ty for the great macro's man ;)

Your the best ;-)

[Ferdy1337]

Very informative video. I used a good bunch of the macros. I knew about the silencing shot and kill command off GC but never knew that you can force an autoshot if I start out with a steadyshot. 5/5

[msoulja]

Do you use similar macros with the !autoshot in pvp also?

[TheGorillafish]

FOR THE HORDE!

[tghmember]

@ LKxDESIGN

So Berserking & Blood Fury are pretty equal? (That's why I asked)

[tghmember]

Hi viewers, and Kripparian.

I'm gonna reroll to hunter in 1 week (lv73 atm) for icc25 HC

I'm wondering, whats the best class - Troll or orc?

Also , any other exceptional advise you got for me?

PM's welcome, aswell as comment replies! Thanks in advance.

[LKxDESIGN]

@tghmember

Troll or Orc are pretty much equal in general IMO, it's all about preference. I'd take troll.

[kuber321]

@tghmember blood elf

[L1veToW1n]

@tghmember Troll if you're MM. Biggest damage out put.

[chikung1000]

Took notice on your serpent sting macro is has no showtooltip...there a reason for this? I tried the copy /paste and I found that on the 1st one posted on aimed shot macro.your missing the # before showtooltip. Was that an error or supposed to be that way?

[chikung1000]

n/m I found it:)

[chikung1000]

Where's the copy and paste for the macros?

[wowZyack]

I got a N52 gamepad (google images it) i got my fingers for main abilities and my thumb for vent/jump/tab target. I got a 8 button mouse. Left + right click makes me move. Scroll forward = battle stance, scroll press = defensive stance, scroll back = berserker stance. 1 of the mouse buttons at my thumb is shift and the other is alt.

im a warrior if you hadnt alrdy guessed. leveling hunter atm but using same keys as warrior.

[Psych0Killerz]

Do you still use Potion of Wild Magic when you raid?

[Gainpower80]

And do u have a macro for serpent sting and chimera shot?

[Gainpower80]

Hey I'm just wandering if the macros increase dps....should I just wait to get used to them? I do like 6k dps in heroics without them and with them I do like 4.5-5 k dps...just get used to them or get rid of them?

[Gustaveger]

@Gainpower80 Whats there to get used to ? all of the shot macros are a pure dps increase . no reason you should do more dps without using shot macros, try it out on a dummy or a boss.

[Kyros2012]

Why dont you use "/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()" on all attacks? Especially the spam one, like Steady

[kskater]

how do you use a modifier in key binding

[chxrex124]

@kskater If you're using dominos, type '/dom' and click the configure bars button. Right click the bar you want to have the modifier affect and select 'modifiers' in the dropdown menu. Drag the slider bar of the modifier you want to select a different bar. When you add spells to the bar you selected, holding down the modifier you selected will switch the bars.

[kskater]

how do you use alt to keybind

[MrDraku90]

nice binds..i use other binds too..but i bind q and e..and i like to use my both mouse click to walk^^....and i use not alt+....i use shift+e shift+q...i mean..for master's call..i use shift+spacebar...its very accesible..you should try..

[WestfallChicken]

Hah, I have exactly the same keyboard as you =D

[Ossythaman]

Hi the somthing wrong i write this in the macro

#showtooltip arcane shot

/cast !auto shot

/cast Arcane Shot

/cast Serpent Sting(Rank 3)

/cast [target=pettarget,exists] Kill Command

But it won't fire the Serpent sting ?? Please help me as fast as possible.

[ASwedishSmurf]

@Ossythaman I'm pretty sure you have to have /stopcasting after the arcane shot. you will have to click it twice i think because it would totally be unfair to fire 2 global cooldown spells at once. you can cast a global and x amount of abilities without the gc like kill command, rapid fire, and stuff like that.

[djmick2oo8]

@Ossythaman ur trying 2 shots at once and as u know there is a cd time for firing one shot to another just like every spell

[XxShawhawxX]

would the macro for attack work with a DK such as this

#showtooltip

/cast !auto attack

/pet [target=pettarget,exists] Gnaw

/cast Scourge Strike

or would this only work with classes such as a hunter, the DPS increase i mean

[sbrowne08]

depends on ur gear but if ur in end game content with bis gear definitely the speed pot

[manveru666]

At this point, what do you think is better, Speed potion or Wild Magic potion? Haste or crit from pot?

[SkillingFTW]

I've pretty much been doing this already. Except the fact that I have a regular mouse with no extra buttons. This must be remedied :)

Thanks.

[MrDynDyn]

Thankyou.

[blightstrike]

@Djeffboi2089 Troll Racial

[leetz00r]

why do you use so many fucking macros? u sick man

[blightstrike]

@leetz00r Macros takes less space on ur action bars since u can macro in more spells in 1 macro instead of 10,000 spells on ur action bar

[ostliel]

I have a specific question about the "input lag" you mentioned. I currently run with both a PvE marks spec as well as a PvE SV spec. As part of my Marks macros I have extra things such as silencing shot in each of my shot macros.

Should I make separate macros for say Survival aimed shot and Marksmanship aimed shot? Or won't it make much of a difference?

[Huntingelpa]

Omg your macros helped me very much, im totally amased how much my dps actually increased by moving a lttle around in my keyboard rotation.

Thx alot man!

[Jschwan1]

idk wut the marco is but i think theres a marco that ptus all the hunters shots in one macro and it uses w/e ones not on cd and u just sit there spaming that macro and u get top dps saw it in a vid called hunter faceroll dps i think it was called

[Peragon13]

Great video! However, your shot macros could be optimized a bit more for performance. Here is an example, using your Steady Shot macro as the basis:

#show Steady Shot

/use !Auto shot

/use Silencing Shot

/use [@pettarget,exists] Kill Command

/use Steady Shot

This new macro reduces the number of characters used by about twenty, reducing input lag. Tell me what you think!

[pbholden]

@Peragon13 does the @ before pettarget count as [target=pettarget]? That looks very neat.

[Peragon13]

@pbholden That's exactly what it does. In fact, the macro is the same grammatically as Kripp's, but it uses several shortcuts.

[pbholden]

Hey Kripparrian just wanted to see how you like this trap macro I put together. Primarily it's most useful for trash mobs in raids/dungeons, because it binds disengage with traps.

#showtooltip [mod:ctrl] Explosive Trap; Immolation Trap

/cast [mod:ctrl] Explosive Trap; Immolation Trap

/cast [mod:shift] Disengage; Immolation Trap

If you press shift with ctrl or without ctrl, it will cast Disengage so you can start shooting on top of whatever trap you put down. Works the same with frost traps.

[wilmnelia]

I copied your shot macros. The problem is that when I put down the macros in my bar, the icons changes and look like the Auto shot icon. This is really annoying because i can't see the colddowns now. What am I doing wrong?

[pbholden]

@wilmnelia Hey, when you put #showtooltip in your macro, it will show the tooltip of the first ability you put after it. To show a certain ability name, such as Aimed Shot, put #showtooltip Aimed Shot, then follow up with the rest of your macro.

[wilmnelia]

@pbholden Ah, okey. thanks mate.

[jmartinez224]

What is the name of the addon that shows autoshot timer?

[Sanchezthecow]

Thank you for this video, i've just started to keybind and this helps alots.

[kkiller322]

What is the name of the addon that shows autoshot timer?

[Comptegab]

@ssmines , clickers are bad for ONE main reason (besides the fact of using your spells with a way bigger lap of time than keybeinders). This reason is you are OBLIGED as a clicker to look at your spell bars and others to kniw where to click, instead of looking at what's going on around and let your fingers press the jeybindings to use said spells... In any Ensidia , or other hardcore guild dps guide, you'll see the authors maje fun of clickers for these mentionned reasons...

[TheEotd]

@xfablemanx i have a hunter and a warrior ill will trade acconts with you

[Sid3nFTW]

I usually bind ctrl and shift to my skills since it's easier to reach for me.

[ssmimess]

Your def making your game play extremely complex and difficult - im a clicker and im pulling my good 12k - 14k as a hunter no problems at all.

I really dont know how the hell you MOVE and at the same time 'shoot and cast' with your left hand as well. Its such a uncomfortable way of playing. Not a thing id pick.. but hey props on that and thanks for the videos- you learn a thing or two.

keep it up

[gamerunknown]

Is there any way to check if your current target is in range for blood boil or psychic scream and not cast it if they're not?

[dielawnz]

im a clicker and still pull top dps for my gear.

[chicomanco1]

@dielawnz  bad

[dielawnz]

@chicomanco1 lets see your 11/12HM ICC25 acheves

[jrc731]

@dielawnz Lol "top dps for your gear"

[dielawnz]

@jrc731 ok if 13k dps is bad for 5.9k gs please tell me.

[Popanovski]

@dielawnz The reason you don't click is because it's imparing ur mobility. If you click all your spells, AND pull out high dps means that you keep your mouse busy clicking, meaning you will have to keyturn. Please don't ask why that is BAD. It's not the only reason though, if you use ur keyboard for casting spells u will have five fingers to cast/move etc. with, while with the mouse only one. It's easier to use five. Ofcourse this might not be your case, but it still impares your mobility.

[dielawnz]

@Popanovski Its accual easyer for me to move and click with mouse, when I move I spin my mouse, use my fingers then go back to clicking. I can spam click faster then my left hand spamming since I'm a world champ at CoD. My triger finger is faster to spam so thats why I click. I rarely die to machanics of the fights so I think my way works for me.

[MrThunderbreak]

@Popanovski im a clicker idk why i cant strafe rather then use mouse to move

[Popanovski]

@MrThunderbreak You can strafe with the keyboard ofc... but turning with the keyboard, A/D really is bad, you are much slower doing it.

[HELLSACOOLTODD]

@dielawnz LOL

[27kidboo]

TYVM for macros thay will come in handy!!!!!

[mongobaracuda]

I don't know why but non of your macros work for me

[wowyrm]

@mongobaracuda try to move the auto shot to the bottom and replace it with a skill shot

[MFG94]

any reason why you don't have chimera and aimed on the mouse buttons?, as those are what you use the most after steady shot.

[MatriusPaladin]

@MFG94 I would say because you aren't spamming those like you do steady shot.

[uwaeve]

Thanks for the great video.

Question: what is the purpose of having /petdefensive before /petpassive in your pet recall and Master's Call macros?

[Tacobandit101]

Say i wanted to do a volley, and during or after the volley, i cast mend pet. what would the macro be?
