    WAR macro to change stances [PS4/controller]

    According to some info posted in various sites in the internet right now, it seem we have 2 new skills that use 5 stacks of Abandon and can only be used when under Deliverance.

    To save some space in cross hot bars, I'll probably be using a macro like this

    Code:
    /micon "Deliverance"
    /ac "Deliverance" <me>
    /crosshotbar action "Decimate" 1 LAU
    /crosshotbar action "Fell Cleave" 1 LAR
    This macro will make me enter Deliverance stance, set the Deliverance-only skills to specific crosshotbar#1 button combinations (i.e.: LAU = L2 + /\, LAR = L2 + O).


    Code:
    /micon "Defiance"
    /ac "Defiance" <me>
    /crosshotbar action "Steel Cyclone" 1 LAU
    /crosshotbar action "Inner Beast" 1 LAR
    This macro does the opposite, enters defiance and sets skills.


    So this macro saves at least 2 spaces of your crosshotbars, assigning Fell Cleave and Decimate dynamically in the buttons you are used to press for Inner Beast and Steel Cyclone.

    Thanks for this. This looks really useful, especially when trying for simple and clean hotbars with a controller.

    What are the button reference numbers for all the others? E.g. you only mentioned LAU LAR.

That forces you to have your macro to switch back in another position. If you switch or copy the entire hotbar, you could do it so your macro to switch to one or antother stays on the same slot, like this:

    /micon Deliverance
    /ac deliverance
    /chotbar change #2
    and

    /micon Defiance
    /ac defiance
    /chotbar change #1


    You could use 2 hotbars, they would have your basic skills and macros and the specific actions for each stance.

    Using two hotbars here are my macros (You can change the location on normal hotbars and cross hotbars by changing the numbers.)

    Deliverance
    /merror off
    /micon "Deliverance"
    /ac "Deliverance" <me>
    /hotbar Action "Fell Cleave" 1 7
    /hotbar Action "Decimate" 2 7

    Defiance
    /merror off
    /micon "Defiance"
    /ac "Defiance" <me>
    /hotbar Action "Inner Beast" 1 7
    /hotbar Action "Steel Cyclone" 2 7

    I edited the main post.

    Unfortunately we can't use a macro to set another macro to the cross hot bar, so my idea of having only 1 button for Defiance/Deliverance didn't work.
    Still, with 1 button for Defiance and another one for Deliverance, we can dynamically assign the Wrath/Abandon skills to the slots we are used to ^^
