Accelerator, I don’t know why the macro isn’t working anymore but I can give you a quick work around that should do the job.

/cast arcane shot
/target pet

Targeting your pet will break your auto shot. If you want to get fancy in instances you can instead:

/cast arcane shot
/target focus
/assist

Of course, make sure your tank is your focus.

BRK,

The pull shot macro above is no longer working for me with the 3.0.2 patch – I have seen others with the same problem in the WoW Forums.

Any hints? Are you aware of any recent issues?

/cast Arcane Shot(Rank 1)
/stopcasting

or with spaces replaced with underscores:

/cast_Arcane_Shot(Rank_1)
/stopcasting

N00b here. I spell it Nirriti, but that’s just a cover name. I’m totally a n00b when it comes to making macros.

Help me Dr. BRK, it doesn’t hurt (the mob) when I do this!

/cast arcane shot(rank1)
/stopcasting

That is exactly as I typed it in and I get nothing. Have I spaced where I shouldn’t or should there be spaces between shot and (

or any other combination I might have messed up.

Thanks in advance if you get to my wee qestion.

Help! I’ve been following your advice and become a pretty good chain trapper — with one exception.

If i can get them to my trap, they are down for three traps. The if comes from Pally tanks and their aggro aoe. I’m having a tough time pulling aggro away from them in a maximum of three or four shots. I’ve tried different combinations of arcane shot, distracting shot, auto shot and steady shot. I’ve tried hitting them before the aoe or waiting till after, but I’m still pretty inconsistent in pulling them off the tank. And my gear is good for my level. Any suggestions?

Thanks and thanks for this wonderful site!

When you’re chain trapping mobs in one of your vids BRK, you use misdirect several times and i was wondering what macro you use for it.
